Problem with Bubble Bobble Revolution is that they did release a 1.1 version which fixed the Level 30 bug, but if you grab it out of a bargain bin you don't know whether you have the fix or not.

(Granted, you should NOT be grabbing that game out of a bargain bin in the first place...)

SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters DS also had a game-breaking bug where the game crashed while you were talking to a mandatory opponent; SNK Playmore did fix that, to their credit.

Yesterday at work I got a call from a NISA rep informing us about the change of date for X-Edge and about the prinny plushy pre-order gifts that never made it. I asked him if this game was going to have issues like At2? While he doesn't work with the games he did say that the word got back to NIS HQ in Japan( as well as others ) and that they were furious at the extreme laziness of the localization team and how the game was release with glitches that should have been seen. He also went on to say that NISA is going over every word off text and double checking coding and what not. He even said people were let go.

So they do care.

Know it's a bit of a bump...but it's another once-over of the bug that plagued the US release. It has since been removed in the EU release but is in PAL format only (released May 29)...which means the US release is the only one that 'sucks' overall.

But I figured I'd share this:

"take a peek at the following

at2 usa iso = 4.09GB (4188MB)
jpn voices from usa version = 275MB
dupe (yeah, f**king DUPE) jpn voices from usa version hidden in the bin = 275MB
jpn voices from jpn version = 773MB

4188 - 2 x 275 + 773 = 4411MB = 4.3GB == f**king FAIL from NISa <.<"

In short... they had space, they even had the japanese track doubled! plus they even added bugs to the game.

And... with all this said... the game was in a dvd5, if they wanted they could have gone dvd9 (hence why I'm afraid they'll be shrinking Sakura Wars 5 to a DVD5)

I know I'm a year late to the party. Bite me.

But... in Ar tonelico 1, you leveled your Reyvateils like any other party member; killing shit dead.

Welllll, in Ar tonelico 2, no. You can be level 7 for the two main fighters. And they're level 1.

So how do you level them up?

Bathing. No, really. Bathing.

It makes sense in context. But bathing.

I can't play this game any more. I feel dirty.

It'll get to the point where it's ridiculous though.

Currently, all my vanguards are at about level 61 in my save. All my reyvateils are at ~92.

Ar Tonelico wasn't the cleanest game that I've ever played although it definitely didn't go as far as far as AT II did. The bath system did seem really weird at first although after that it never really bothered me

While I would normally agree with that kind of idea, I've bene too busy ~~somehow wasting all my money~~ diving again, leaving me with absolutely no money whatsoever.

Buy: [Growth] 1000L
Funds: 7

That and I'm reluctant to use that WORLD one I found.

...

Aside from that, what the hell is SP?

(And nice to see that if you end up getting knocked to 0 DP, when you're kicked out you still have whatever you had before that happened)

You'll figure that one out soon enough.
