Bad Place pillaged, other stuff done, many baddies defeat0red. It was a fairly extended session last night, but then Final Fantasy is like that. Amongst other things, I chatted with some dwarfs in a mine, got loads of Mythril weapons, and helped blow a dirty great chunk of land to kingdom come – conveniently making

Potion used, pointy-eared bloke awakened. So that little quest netted a bunch of armour and weapon upgrades, 17,000 gil, all in – and about 345873498579 experience points. The party is now at level 17. One final artifact gained from the quest is a key which opens various locations around the world map and….. a whole

Well, I’ve discovered that me old mate FatHippy is going to be playing this as of Tuesday, so I’ll try and avoid any spoilers. Not that there’s much to spoil – everything so far has been pretty much as expected for a Final Fantasy games. Loads of battles, loads of to-ing an fro-ing. Anyhoo, JOLT

VICTORY TRIUMPH GET! Well, the cave turned out to be interesting but a tad more straightforward once I’d levelled up a bit. Anyway, the thing I thought was there was indeed, so I liberated it from the clutches of some piscademons. After that, I popped up north to discover I’d been hoodwinked by a Dark

Well, after my humiliating defeat at the cave (haven’t I heard that line before somewhere?) I’ve made a tactical retreat (read: ran away) to lick my wounds. I’ve managed to limp all the way back to the Elfie village (with one member of my party still conscious) where I’ve spent what money I had on

I am weak – I’ve been lusting after this game since its release, and the news that deKay was weak made me cave. And guess what – it’s ACE! For values of ACE which can be interpreted as so cute it will make your eyes explode out of your skull with whimsy. The premise is

Gah – defeat0red in the marsh cave. Trouble is that Ghouls and Ghasts have an annoying habit of paralizing my warriors. I think I may have to do a spot of levelling up before venturing in there.

Good grief. Well, I’ve rescued a princess, got a ship, have some vague idea that I have to find some crystals from somewhere and that one of the is northish. So, I’m leveling up, slowly but surely. My party are all crap at the moment, but I daresay they’ll be uber before long.

Now this is what the current and next generation of handheld gaming should be all about. Forget trying to squeeze first person shooters, racers and whatnot onto platforms where they just don’t fit. This is Castlevania as it was meant to be – difficult, fast gameplay in a two dimensional environment, with the power of

This is my new daytime game. The reason I’m making a distinction between daytime and nighttime games is because the other title I’m playing is Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow on the DS and I only get access to the DS when I can prise it from Debbie’s clutching grip of doom. At least until she’s
