I have been playing Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. A game that despite loving I haven been able to actually finish.
I'm almost at the end. Just one empty spot at the map left.
... Also the reason I haven't been playing ANYTHING ELSE (i.e. finish Pokémon Black so I can get 2, Chantelise) despite wanting to. I have no idea what is it with this game but it devours your time.
"Just one more battle and I'm done" becomes "I'm about to master this ability though and there are these interesting missions in the bar and ..." and then the battle drags on for forever causing you to accidentally break the law when KOing the last enemy and then you get a "no price" so you have to do it all again.
Also all the management. Thinking how these characters are lower leveled and other jobs you want to train and stuff.
I am not doing the 300 missions though. I think I even can't anymore. Though I am at over 210.

Give A2 a shot, Reimu. I didn't really like Advance (enough to finish the storyline I guess), but A2's a lot better. Plus, I'm pretty sure it's impossible to get to where you can't do every mission.
I've been doing a lot of Mass Effect 3 multiplayer. I can now consistently solo Bronze-level games. Not a great achievement, admittedly, but still.

This. I had a great time playing both games, though A2 solved a few of my gripes from the first. It changed the formula enough to make it interesting but still kept true to the core gameplay of the first. Never got to beat the second, however, even though I finished the first in a single sitting.

Actually, I'm unsure if I would like A2.
I mean, I like the strict laws, it makes fights with them interesting. (The only law that really sucks is the Dmg:Species kind, but that's why you have anti-laws) How it seems to work in A2 trivializes the law itself for the sake of the bonuses, which... removes a lot of the danger.
The expansion with more jobs and races is always good, though. Some look pretty fun. But also it seems that these work differently too, needing to do specific tasks to unlock them.
But eh, I'll give it a try I guess. Though I'd rather play Tactics first.
For the first time since I've finished Ocarina of Time a couple of months ago, I've gone back to mapping again. I'm not quite at Master Quest yet, but I'm mapping the secret levels of Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3. I found the greatest code to help me with it, too!

I have only been playing 7 hours, and still think drawing magic is the worst concept in Final Fantasy history.

That's why hte first ability I always got for every GF was their magic refine ability. Beat the hell out of monsters, loot their corpses, and make magic. Much less shitty. In fact, if that was the standard magic acquisition technique in the game, it'd probably suck less.

Break law, can't revive anyone in that battle. I'd say there's still some danger. Plus, you can't just walk to another area to shuffle the laws around like in Advance.
That said, yes, Tactics is still better.
I've been playing Forza Horizon and still a bit of ME3 multiplayer. Not entirely thrilled with the lack of tuning, but you can still do manual upgrading, and tuning was really only of significant benefit to people who were good at it, people who bought tunes from peopl who were good at it, and drifters.
The last one is annoying; I wanted to do more drifting.

Now I'm working on the first DLC, maybe getting to the level cap, and starting playthrough 2.
Also some Dishonored here and there.

I've been working my ass off trying to level all the GF's.
I just finished that first bit at the beginning, like AFTER you go to the fire cave, and Squall and Quistis are like level 17.
Easiest way to boost experience though, in the beginning at least, is to have your GF level enough to learn the move "Doom". Those T-Rexes that are otherwise a pain in the ass to beat (again in the beginning) are vulnerable to doom, giving you tons of free experience in each battle.
I recently got some of the refining crap, and I also have the 2nd tier magics... all before I do anything of any real consequence in the game.
I've played to the 10th hour or so of gameplay before. So I know what's coming. Selphie and Zell are going to complicate things pointlessly.

So, has anybody been playing Pokémon Black/White 2?
I keep thinking it's lazily done, but then I remember that much more effort went into it than into any previous third versions.
I've been playing Monster Hunter Tri which other than the slightly annoying controls is awesome. I wish i could add more to the game though and that the monsters that were taken out were still in it.

Originally posted by StigandrEnemy levels scale with you, so you're not making things any easier on yourself.
Found this out the hard way :/
I'm on Disc 2 with a level 33 Squall, and having to split my party up evenly. So I have each party contain a level 30 character, a mid 20s character, and a mid 10s character.
Thankfully, junctioned Squall can kill most enemies I encounter on his own, so the other characters can't really get hurt.
Also...

You can unlock a skill called libra which can reveal traps on the battlefield if you have the first game in the gba slot when you start A2. Don't worry if you are using an emulator since i'm sure they can do that.

Finished my first sequence-broken playthrough of Ocarina of Time today! My (terrible) route for those interested was...
Forest Escape
Grab Zelda's Lullaby, Sun's Song, Hylian Shield
Returned to grab the Slingshot from the Deku Tree
Grabbed ~8 heart pieces (I forget when I got most of them. It was most certainly less than 8), then the bombs from Dodongo's Cavern (after getting Saria's Song)
Magic Meter
Din's Fire
Child DoT Skip
Early Shadow Temple, grab Hover Boots
Hover clip to get early Double Defense
Forest Temple; Grab bow, then Boss Key skip straight to Phantom Ganondorf
Adult DoT Skip
Grab the Lens of Truth and grab a heart piece by teaching the frogs the Song of Storms
Child DoT
Shadow Temple
Superslide Hover to Gerudo Valley (because I could)
Rescued the carpenters without being caught
Silver Block skip in the Spirit Temple
Twinrova
Armos Clip Trials Skip in Ganon's Tower
Quickly killed Ganondorf using Jump Attacks and the Power Crouch Stab
Kept the Master Sword for the Ganon Battle.
I figured out that you can quickly kill Ganon by keeping the Master Sword, then rolling between his legs and jump attacking his tail. From then on, you just keep rolling, then turn around and Power Crouch Stab his tail.
pecies kind, but that's why you have anti-laws) How it seems to work in A2 trivializes the law itself for the sake of the bonuses, which... removes a lot of the danger.
