So I started playing it. I have to squint my eyes and stand next to the TV in order see anything. Not long after opening the main menu for the first time, I realized my eyes were killing me. I can play games for a while and not get an eye-ache/headache, but wow. It sucks. :(
you got a SD tv im guessing? cause alot of games text is a bitch to see on SD tvs

The first two Final Fantasy games are great, I bought them again on PSP last year, and the updated graphics (Using same as iOS) look bloody amazing if you ask me. Can't wait for Final Fantasy IV to make its way to PSP next year.


Yeah I completely fell in love with the graphics. I've never played the originals, but I've seen screenshots... ugh.

Not on me they don't. XD

Also, I don't really know what kind of TV I have. O_oa I have to ask Star. It makes me not play a game on it for awhile...
is it square? or is it a rectangle? the main problem about ps3 and 360 games now alot of them are made for hd tvs. so text is a bitch to read on SD tvs

when's the last time you had your eyes checked? prescriptions can change over the years. Also, I would talk to your optometrist about this next time you see him.
 
I had them checked last year after Star broke my glasses. >.< On accident, of course. It was pretty strange, but a couple of years before that they said my eyesight would become worse unless I upgraded to something (which I didn't do because I had no money), but last year they didn't mention anything like that. o.o
 
I wanna play a game again :( it has been 2 weeks or more since I last played one -.- (damned I hate exams, they leave so litle spare time)..

I'm playing "How to study Neuro-behavioral science and statistics" xp

Well I WOULD be playing DC Universe Online but I went to 6 stores and it was sold out, or not stocked yet!

Went to two GAME stores, and it was sold out
Went to Gamestation, sold out
Went to HMV, they thought it didn't come out until next week, despite the GAME store right beside them having signs up on their window with Batman and Joker, Superman and Lex Luthor etc.
Went to two Tesco's on the way back, one of them said it was sold out, but they only stocked 10 copies anyway, whereas the other said they weren't allowed to stock them until after midday, so I went back at 2pm and they were sold out... what the fuck.

Why is it so hard to get this game?! I mean, I didn't even think many people would be playing it for PS3! D:

Just finished Fallout on my bare bones run through(Just finish the main quest and that's it). I'm trying to do that with Fallout 2, but I can't as there's so much to do.

What are the best handheld Zelda games? I think I'm going to get caught up on the Zelda's I've never played. I can borrow a gamecube/wii for Wind Waker and Twilight Princess, but I have my own DS so I think I'm gonna pick up a few for that.
 
I never completed it but Phantom hourglass and Spirit Tracks got good reviews (and were fun when I played the former)

I've actually sat down and been grinding through FFXIII. A lot of people bashed it for its linearity, but I'm actually still enjoying it. Very colorful world. Stunning graphics for sure. Apparently, I'm at the point where the world is about to open up and become open-ended so let's see if my opinion will strengthen?
 
For FFXIII, the world opens up a bit in Chapter 11, then for the remaining chapter it reverts back to its normal form. Post-game you can return here though, so it's no problem. Also, as a tip, I would recommend NOT grinding until near the end of the game or even post-game. This is because there is an item you can get in Chapter 11 called Growth Egg that makes grinding after you get it extremely efficient. Without it (and especially without Chapter 11) grinding is essentially pointless. Of course, you can do whatever you want to :P

This is sort of true, but I grinded in Chapter 11, 12 and 13 right before the final boss, and won the second form in 32 seconds because I had EVERYTHING maxed on all my characters, and they all had their ultima weapons, lol.

Best grinding spot is the adamantoise in eden, without growth egg he already gives 40k cp, not bad for a 120 second fight, not to mention the drops!

+ final boss is so easy with maxed stats and gear, nothing like first time you fase him (that fight made me love poison xP )
