I bought Japanese copies of the three Shadow Hearts games for pennies earlier this year (including the Director's Cut version of II - no idea what it adds, but thought I might as well play the...

About 80 hours into Xenoblade 2, and (I think) nearing the end of the main story now.

I'm generally a big Xeno fan, so I was a little surprised at how long the game actually took to grow on me....

My partner built a pretty top of the line gaming PC recently to play online with her cousin, a former pro gamer who is still really keen on the competitive gaming scene. So we've been playing lots of...

Have been playing MapleStory DS in little spells before bed recently. ^^;;; Never played the MMO it was based on, but it's actually a nice little game, and an impressive effort for a Korean company...

A friend was nice enough to randomly buy me a copy of Pokemon Sun (I think he wanted someone to play through the new Pokemon with him... ^^;;;), so have been playing over the last four or five days....

Still making steady progress with Persona 4 in Korean. ^^;;; It's been a nice stop gap to hold me over until I have the spare income to import 5, and the massive script and high school setting have...

Have been interested in this since waaaaaaay back in the early 2000s when it was the subject of some "new games from Japan" section in a Playstation magazine I bought, but our whole...

Finished the PC Engine version of Snatcher. The first videogame I've finished in longer than I can remember. It's nice to be playing more again these days. ^^;;; Anyway, it's been years and years...

Found myself chatting a couple of weeks ago to my little brother about fond (though very vague) memories of Kojima's Snatcher, and ended up wanting to replay it. ^^;;; PCEngine version rather than...

Chalk me up as another person who thinks that Circle of the Moon is really pretty good. It's not the best that the series has to offer by any means, but I feel like it stacking up unfavourably...

I started dating someone from South Korea, and before long she had me playing Starcraft again for the first time in years. Feel like we're kind of...

Finished Final Fantasy VII in Japanese. It isn't my favourite RPG ever, much less my favourite game ever. But for many reasons, it has had, by a substantial margin, the largest impact upon my life...

Only played a little of it myself, way back when it first came out, but yeah, seriously pretty game. ^^;;; Is it any good? It seemed not bad by what I played.

Current games on the go:

Bravely...

More Bravely Default aka Final Fantasy V-2. Maybe I just suck at games these days, but this is quite tough. ^^;;; I guess they figured that if they were going to mimic older games, they might as well...

I never really expected to find myself playing male-orientated dating sims, but I realised about two months back that they're really good shadowing practice in Japanese, what with their dialogue...

Played a little bit of Bravely Default. ^^;;; They can call this by whatever name they want, but it's basically a modern attempt at a classic styled Final Fantasy. I'd hesitate to make any definitive...

I was out shopping with a friend and casually mentioned that I would consider buying the limited edition box set of Ao no Kiseki if it were about half as cheap as it was. When we arrived back at the...

So while I still quite enjoyed the first disc of Xenosaga 2 on a replay, I forgot how much of a total slog the second disc is, with very little story and loooooong, boring dungeons. D: Not surprising...

Oh cool, another importer / Japanese speaker! ^_^ I'm living in Japan at the moment, actually, but I studied Japanese for years before coming here. Mainly by playing videogames. :'D I always expected...

Hee, cool! ^_^ You'll finish them way quicker than I will, I expect. I'll be lucky if I'm finished by February. XD Honestly just amazed that I can understand them in Japanese, though. The Japanese in...

Only Proto Merkabah stands between me and finishing my Japanese replay of Xenosaga Episode 1. ^_^ I don't know whether it's a good or bad thing that it now takes me over a month to finish such a...

Replaying the Xenosaga trilogy in Japanese while in Japan. ^_^ Because why not?
