GIP
Where GIP is both Gratuitous Icon Post and Game Info Post, mwahaha. Got you for a sec, huh?! Tales of the Abyss is one of those games I wish someone else would play for me. I want to know what happened and I like a lot of the characters (just not Tear) (or Jade half the time, despite GIP) and I kind of want to ship things (come on, fandom, no Guy/Asch?) but I don't want to play it anymore. The world map drives me absofrigginglutely insane, and picking it up now I wouldn't even know where I was supposed to be, so I'd have to start over.
Disgaea is another one of those games, but I'm stuck because the leveling makes me so damn tired and I'm right in front of one of those boards where the enemies jump like five levels on average. I wish someone else could level for me. I really want to know how it ends.
Final Fantasy 12: Revenant Wings - I kind of want Filo to fall off the face of the game right now. I also really, really wish that the developers understood that "strategy" takes time. By the time I think "Okay, this guy is a flying unit. What's good against flying units? Flying is strong against melee, so... ranged is strong against flying. Okay, who has flying units? Llyud!" and then tap on first Kytes (because I tap on Kytes by accident every time I want to select anyone) and then Llyud, the flying unit is already dead, and so are two of my melee units. This is not ideal.
Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions - I want to nitpick a lot of the changes (The Lion War was a better name, fyi) and they added some wacky new failslations (hithertofore! HILARIOUS) but wow, this game is gorgeous. I'm excited. If only I had a memory card.
KOTOR 2: This game is quite interesting if you name the main character "Roxas" and imagine what he would say when presented dialogue options. ...what?
Other things I'm excited for: FF7CC (ZACK I LOVE YOU, ZAAACK) - KH 385/2 and Birth by Sleep (two two two times the Roxas angst!) - Bleach DS 3 (crap that's in January, isn't it)
Non-game things: I'm going to watch Dexter seasons 1 and 2, all three seasons of LOST, and then squeeze in as much of My So-Called Life as I can before going back to work on January 2. The moment I get back to CO. *waits*
