10/11/06- Always Finish What You Start

[Marik]

Ok, today at work we did PS3 preorders. People camped since 3am in our store. Unfortunally they weren't there for the love of the games. They all are selling it on eBay. None for those who WANT it.

Tales of the Abyss comes out tomorrow, not today like I said. Damn now I have to wait til tomorrow to put it on my shelf and watch it grow dust until I end up finding RPG time.

.........With a chunk of that being RPGs, I dont think I'll be able to star some of these, and I didnt count the ones I'm getting rid of.
AND with games like Twilight Princess, Sonic, Children of Mana, Final Fantasy III and XII coming out in the matter of a month. Mario, Metroid, Pokemon Diamond and Pearl next year. Too much....



And I leave the best for last: Something totally screwed up. Today in Japan(which is the middle of the night in America)SNK announces DOKIDOKI MAJOSAIBAN or Exciting Witch Trial on the Wii and DS. A child molestation game. How or why SNK, a respected company, is making this and that(or still if)Nintendo's allowing this.

But at least the DS is region free.

I don't think this what Nintendo meant when they created Touch Generations.

Sorry.

My list of unstarted games is atleast twice as large. A good portion of mine haven't even been opened yet. Almost all of them are RPGs too. I have the entire Xenosaga series including Xenogears on PS1 and not a single game has been unsealed yet. The Wii's only gonna distract me even more too. I need more shelves.

I came here thinking this was going to be about the plane kamikazeing into the NYC building, lol.

Well.... All the games I ever started I've finished and replayed at least 10 times, maybe up to 100. I enjoy what I have and dont go hysterical for new games that aren't released yet.
... "carpe diem"...

....You haven't started that many games? What's taking so long. I'll at least start everything. It just takes a while to finish them.
