my guess is that someone thought they were spending $2.99 and haven't looked at their bank statement yet.

i never understood how a ds can have a 12-hour playtime battery life,l but as soon as i play a game on my phone (or do anything besides use it as a phone), the battery dies in an hour.

Metareview: Final Fantasy XIII

Mar 10th 2010 1:46PM (Joystiq)
i'm about 5-6 hours into the game and i don't feel any of this tedium i keep reading about. some people are just impatient as hell i think and want 8 boss battles in the first 10 minutes of the game, where they can press two buttons over and over again rapidly to perform 14 moves.
i think it's balanced fairly well...i like to manage without super dull micromanagement. i'm enjoying it quite a bit. battles are fast, which is nice, and they get progressively more complex as features are added. it is an rpg...you have to build up stats for your characters. the beginning serves as an opportunity to learn the system and build up some of the crystarium features. not once so far have i thought "get on with it!"... and i think game reviewers always bitch about "investing time" in a game because they have to play through every game ever and just want to get it over with as quickly as possible. i put 100 hours into ffxii over 4 months because i enjoyed it and wanted to take my time and futz around with everything. i will probably do the same with ffxiii
but i suppose it's like any game...you get it or you don't. i thought fallout 3 sucked. and mass effect was boring and plodding. mass effect 2 was an awkward shooter. borderlands was about as repetitive as a game can get. to each their own.

that being said, i think the edge score of 5/10 is utterly ridiculous. and mass effect 2 gets 9/10? yawn.

the "defeatist attitude" sounds very japanese...they can't admit to doing a good job.

that's like a blind person suing books because he can't read them.

Picross 3D shaping up for May 3 release

i picked this up when i was in japan last march and played it to death. confusing at first, ultimately easier than regular picross, but still very addictive...

Advertisers ignoring PlayStation Home, but interested in PSN

Feb 24th 2010 10:36AM (Joystiq)
i don't the ps3 home because every time i actually use it, i have to wait 15 minutes for it to install updates, and then if i actually do something besides wander around the plaze dancing, i have to wait for it to load that other stuff.
