It's not bad at all for $3 really; controls were easier than expected considering the complaints I remember reading. I'll probably pick up Hybrid: Eternal Whisper when it either price drops or when I'm bored of Zenonia.

...

So probably after I beat Uncharted 2.

When I play it is at night, when I've already put the laptop away for the night. Therefore, I can't look online for puzzle solutions.

Usually the hints are enough, though.

I got to play Soul Calibur 4: Broken Destiny on the PSP Go

ok so, a game going from Blu-Ray to UMD (or, is it download only?) is expected to have some stuff cut out.

Like the character editor, they took away costume modification of existing characters altogether, allowing you only to edit colors, as with Soul Calibur 3

that was fine (though I missed being able to give Astaroth groovy clothes and an afro)...

but in character creation, they took away your ability to change the build/body type of your character. This was one of the few things I liked about the SC4 editor system more than the SC3 one.

After that, I examined every piece of clothing and armor, and remembered a much better selection in the console version, even though my friend insisted that was not the case.

After playing the PSP version of Tekken 5, which had hundreds more customization parts than the console version, I found this inexcusable.

I remembered clothing and armor I liked in SC4, and did not see it in SC4:BD. In that vein, it seemed that every damn hat was a chinese hat, every set of pants were some variation of hakama (which makes it so you can't see any boots you are wearing), and every shirt was either HEAVY ARMOR or boring.

There weren't even any hooded robes, or hoods at all. And, they included a modern-day blazer and sweater vest from the schoolgirl pack that came with the special edition of SC4, but for some horrible reason did not include any of the fucking modern-day skirts.

All this can be called trivial, but the character creation that started with SC3 is very dear to me.

One of the greatest parts of SC3 was its excellent story mode, with loads of story to read that differed with each of the multiple paths you could take, and each character's path brings them into conflict with specific people. SC4 was bashed for its mercilessly stripped-down story mode, with the only "story" being a prologue and an ending cinematic. SC4:BD has NO STORY MODE AT ALL~

From what I could tell, there was very very little to unlock.

So yeah, the only new and interesting things appeared to be Kratos, who was fun, but he felt very unbalanced...and Dampierre, who was AWESOME

There was also no online mode at all~ not even a way to compare scores

so yeah if it weren't for the actual Soul Calibur fighting mechanics being so great, this game would have been much much lamer. But it is definitely the worst Soul Calibur game so far, even compared to the dated old Dreamcast game.

did not expect to write that much

Shin Megami Tensei Strange Journey, Delphinus Sector. I fused Black Frost, he's a pretty good demon.

EDIT: I also entered the password for Demoniho (a Jack Frost in a DEMONICA suit), so I can summon it as soon as I hit level 75. I'm level 31 right now...
