Gaming update - 10/26/2007

By Andrew Edward · October 26, 2007

Update time!

I'm still playing Persona 3. I've logged 96 hours in the game so far. That's way longer than I'd play most games, so I think that says a lot about how much I like it. I'm in November, so I think I'm getting closer to the end of the game.

Also played some Fire Emblem for a bit. Not as long as I would have liked, due to Persona 3 taking over my life. Also tried getting back into Tales of Phantasia. I caught onto the battle mechanics quickly, but I have no idea where to go or what to do any more. Bah.

Local EB Games store got their shipment of Guitar Hero III. The PS3 box weighs less than the Xbox 360 and Wii box. It's not really a big deal, but I did notice it. Kind of easy to see when it's written on the side of the shipping box.

Oh, and if you missed the controversy surrounding GameSpot's Ratchet and Clank review, congratulations. I was not so lucky.

You sound like me with Persona 3. It's such a great game! Though I managed to 'fly' through it in just over 80 hours. You must be stopping to get all the extra goodies and complete Elizabeth's assignments?

Also, I guess I'm lucky... because I missed out on the controversy. I wasn't even aware there was one!

I think it's so pathetically hilarious that these people shit their pants when reading that someone doesn't agree with their opinions. These GameFAQs message board slobs need to be shot. They are ruining America.

GameSPOT, Usurplix. FAQers would more likely complain the review wasn't in sections.

I, too, missed all the shenanigans, though have been asked my view on it several times. My responce has thus far been "Wha?"

No, EmPlaya, if you go to the Ratchet and Clank for PS3 board, there are a ton of topics talking about how GameSpot are a bunch of tards for giving the game a 7.5/10.

That's because the boards are MERGED.

Also, there was no typo in my news story.
