That's good but he might have to go to the doctors ever so often to make sure nothing comes back.But that's still good to hear.

uhhh... wtf
Why is it that when I load this page a song (that I don't recognize) plays?

EDIT: Also, discovered that I probably have Delayed sleep phase syndrome Which is probably because I spend so much time inside with the curtain's usually closed.

Has anyone ever played Grandia? It's 10 dollars on the PSN and I'm kind of sick of FF12 at the moment so I'm thinking of grabbing this or Wild Arms 1 or 2 which are only 6 bucks.

I really like FF12 but I think it's pretty obvious Vaan was just kind of thrown into the lead role for no apparent reason (unless after 40+ hours he stops being such a backseat character). I think they could of easily thrown a 4th party member in there and the battle system wouldn't of been any more complicated even with the 5th guest every once in awhile. The combat is just kind of boring now and I'm not to fond with the cast of characters. I mean you are in this world full of moogles and lizard men and bunny people and tiger people and they fill your party up with 5 humes and then Fran who is kind of dull.

I do like the plot so far and the music is pretty amazing in some parts of the game. Combat is okay but the license board is a little simplistic for my tastes.

Apparently I have to have a CT scan. Joy. I have been tested for HIV and hepatitis and a shitload of other stuff too the provisional good-news is that although they are inflamed in a well-distributed fashion my lymph nodes are smaller than your average cancer patient therefore it's more likely to be a really persistent bastard of a virus or a side-effect of the aforementioned skin drug. Can't wait to see that on paper, getting pretty annoyed with constant speculation and having a stiff neck.

Can't do exercise until they figure it out so no football for me. Grumble.

Dead Rising. I am liking everything about the game except for the progression system. The fact that you have to go out of your way to save the game combined with the fact that it punishes you by completely restarting from the beginning if you die makes for a pretty horrible experience. If the game would at least autosave after each boss or completed task/mission then it would be somewhat more tolerable.

Anyway it is still a good game aside from that, and I'll see if I have the motivation required to finish it. So far I haven't even been able to finish the first mission. :-(

best ost, wild arms

Well, I think the game is extraordinarily awesome, along with nemesis.  I didn't feel like the game started terribly, and I'm a sucker for games with a mystery/thriller theme to it (the Condemned games are still some of my favorite games [the 2nd one kind of went overboard at the end, but was still great]).  I think the main aspect of the game that does it for me is the atmosphere.  I've been playing the game at night alone in my room, and the feeling has me tense and nervous at times.  I'm really enjoying the story (just at episode 4 at the moment), and my brother and dad who have both finished it by now say that the game is amazing.  Really, for all the gamers out there, it is a very enjoyable game, and I would recommend buying it.  I feel for the most part, people nowadays critique games too much and don't enjoy them enough; they go into the game trying to find the flaws instead of enjoying the good aspects.  But that is all mindless dribble....

i LOVED it back in the day!! i have beaten it like 10 times. illusion of gaia fucking rocks. one of the best action rpg's!! i just love its setting and how it's loosely based on real history and mythology (it has a lot of cool ideas and locations like inca stuff, the great wall of china, tower of babel etc.) and it's just friggin awesome. i need to replay it.
grandia is childish and silly but it's awesome. it's one of the best jrpg's for sure. it's so... pure. grandia 2 is just a shitty copy of it with an awful storyline and characters.
