Tch, I already finished Saiyuki. Apparently if I need a project I can sink my teeth into, it has to be of Unlimited Saga proportions... =/

I can't believe how quickly you churn out quality FAQs for interesting and complex games. Unlimited SaGa is an awesome game that almost no one likes and last I knew, there was a bounty for it on GameFAQs. Are you really going to write for it?

"What if everything you see is more than what you see--the person next to you is a warrior and the space that appears empty is a secret door to another world? What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2

I'd like to write for it, but since it's multi-path and I've only been able to stand about 2 hours of it, probably not in the near future. Wouldn't say the game is as bad as the rep it's gotten, but it's certainly got a weird insular/esoteric feel to it that pushes about 90% of the RPG public away. Might get away with writing a guide on the first playthrough for a simpler RPG, but that one seemed like something that has to be gone through first for a good understanding. Did you play all the way through?

Unlimited SaGa is a huge game, yeah. I didn't play all the way through but I sank quite a few hours into it and enjoyed myself a lot. I really look forward to some day playing lots and lots more. I love how dungeons are explored, I enjoyed the plot and art style, the music was fantastic and the battle system worked pretty well for me. It's definitely a unique game and to me that was a huge part of its appeal. I wouldn't want to FAQ it, though. I could imagine that taking forever!

I've played US a bit lately to see if I can get through its nigh impenetrable...uh, self. Kinda have a feel for it but there's still a lot of alien aspects to me.

Figure I might as well do Legaia 2 stuff while it's fresh in my mind. Puttin' FFT on a shelf again...tch.

My last topic got deleted by Venter's coding. It was supposed to be forever =(

In any case, I'm working on Top Spin 3 Wii, which is my first project in like, 2 years?

At 9:55:00 PM MST on April 5th, 2005, Venter finally defeated Phantom!

Still doing Legaia 2 stuff at a sluggish pace, and really more interested in Beyond Good & Evil since it seems a good cleanin' got around a nasty glitch. Probably that and Summoner 2 are gonna get done after I'm freed up again.

Finished Gears of War after rewriting the last eighth from memory (stupid laptop!). Probably Legaia stuff again...unless the wind changes, haha.

You're fast becoming my favorite active FAQ writer. Keep up the good work as long as you can, though I don't see how you do it!

Hah, thanks. Idle hands are the FAQer's playthings, as they say.

Majora's Mask to satisfy a coauthor. Fun stuff. I will have to shut myself up in my room for the next two days to get a large chunk done.

Not sure how to make a sig? While logged into your account, you can edit it and your other public and private information from the Settings page.

How long did it take you for Radiata?

Dogpile on Gwinnett!

I think it took me about a week and a half for the entirety of the walkthrough and most of the appendix.

That beast of a recruitment section took me at least another week I think.

Whew, almost done with Legaia stuff. Kinda want to start Summoner 2 afterwards but I've got a weird hankering to do something for Survival Kids (GBC), the awesome deserted island exploration game.

Finally finished Half-Life 2 after a week of crappy stumbling blocks. Guess it's onto Summoner 2 or something.

Dogpile on Gwinnett!

Done with Assassin's Crap...err, Creed. Summoner 2 maybe?

Dogpile on Gwinnett!

Finished Tomb Raider TLR, maybe back to Wild ARMs 3.

Holy cow dude, good work. I'm almost done Rhapsody (DS).

But... I love Drakengard!

For us. For them. For you.

It's great except for the mind-numbing monotony that permeates every action. ^___^

Dogpile on Gwinnett!

It could be worse.

You could be playing Chrono Cross or Legend of Dragoon.

Oh, wait

Zing!

Yeah, well...your face!

But luckily I dropped Drakengard for Ace Combat 5, which has more explosions.
