.....Meh, I prefer Super Mario Sunshine to BOTH!!!! It only took them that long because they can't be bothered to make timely sequels....especially back then.

Yup, me too. Sunshine is my favorite 3D Super Mario game. Galaxy comes close, though.

I really liked SMS for how it enabled you to just play and have fun within it's levels, without caring much about the objectives.  However, the game was very inconsistent in terms of level quality.

Whoa!  Animal Crossing NYC meeting sounds totally awesome.  Animal Crossing mayors from allover getting together to have fun and ... to celebrate BUGS!! Grinning Grinning

Wish I could be there.  Leo put it in your agenda, but only if you and your mother can both attend, otherwise you should stay and play AC with her instead!

Did you try the demo? Bugs and Vader hated it. I tried it, it was okay the battle system seems good but I don't like the grid and isometric view. Bit annoying to navigate.

I can understand the confusion, but it just so happens I have experience with this type of game, so I knew exactly what to expect, and have had no regrets in picking it up!

Remember her from all of my anime-booby topics? Yeah... She's in there!! As it turns out, the game is made by the same development team --AND-- it's almost a psuedo-sequel to Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier (the game she first appeared in)!

Expectations are what makes or breaks this game. If you think it's an action-RPG, you're going to be disappointed. It's actually an SRPG with the slightest of interactive, action elements. In games like Fire Emblem, you move your character with the cursor, move next to an enemy and press a button to attack. You pretty much just watch the results from there. In --THIS-- game, you move (at least) two characters at a time and when they attack the "A" button or the "A" button --PLUS-- a direction on the d-pad initiates an attack. What differs in this game is: You have a bit more input in the battles. Typically, your attacks will either strike horizontally and cause damage --OR-- pop an enemy straight up into the air or diagonally up in the air. Depending on how many moves you have at your disposal, you then need to choose attacks after your first to juggle your enemy in the air and do as much damage as possible. Playing a game like this for the first time, you're not going to know what attacks hit in which direction, or even the fact that you HAVE to juggle and it's going to seem like pointless, mass-confusion.

When the battle system --DOES-- click... Oh! the satisfaction and controlled Chaos you can cause! It's --AWESOME!--

Throw in slightly more advanced attacks like having a Solo member join your Team that can initiate Special Attacks at any time with the press of the "L" button, or having nearby Teams that can lend Support with the press of the "R" button and things go bat-shit INSANE!!

The game is FUN. It has a nonsense story that is --NOT-- meant to be taken seriously, but OH! THE FAN-SERVICE!! In one of the earliest battles Jin Kazama and Xiaoyu from Tekken meet Akira and Pai from Virtua Fighter just after Red Arremers (Gargoyles Quest, Demon's Crest, Ghosts n Goblins) start pouring from a Demon Gate, triggering Jin's Devil Gene... first you have to rescue Jin... but then Dural (Virtua Fighter) and Juri (Street Fighter IV) show up... along with Ken and Ryu!! ...MADNESS!!

GASP

This game --WILL NOT-- be for everyone --BUT-- if you love Sprites, JRPGs, Boobies, Sega (lots of Valkyria Chronicles cameos), Bandai-Namco (BanPresto) or Capcom... There's BOUND to be something to make you smile!!

EDIT: Forgot to add this before: It would be best to think of this game as the Marvel vs. Capcom 3 of SRPGs!

Your concept of ownership is more fluid than Microsoft's.  Do you still have the PSP you got a few months ago from your old lady?

Actually no. I traded it for a PS2. It was the only way I could play Persona 4. I have no regrets.
