Nice. That's a series I'm aching to get into eventually, just need to find that right moment and mood (and I want to go through Koudelka first, which I hear is tough). But yeah, talk about non-cliche JRPG aesthetics. Always looked like a blast to me.
On the other end, not quite as non-cliche in the JRPG area...
Been eying this for a while, but once it recently dropped to around 9 freakin' bucks on Amazon (a steal for almost any game), I threw in a new guitar strap so I could get free shipping and ordered that sucker up.
I haven't looked too far into it, so I don't know a ton of specifics, but it's supposed to be partly developed by a bunch of former Valkyrie Profile staff, and apparently the gameplay actually reflects that quite a bit. Sort of a spiritual successor in some ways (mostly gameplay), then. And even if it doesn't exactly buck the usual JRPG cliches, I still do like some of the design work quite a bit.

I leave stuff in my cart that I'm interested in so when I login to Amazon I can see the current price on the right side. I saw it dropped to $9 and bought it immediately. Not sure when I'll get to it but I won't pass on a $9 RPG.
Also picked up the Star Ocean hardcover guide for a penny. Yep a penny lol. I don't own the game yet but a deal is a deal. Best Buy has a bunch of them on clearance but this was the only good one.

If I could I'd seriously break the laws of physics and risk the destruction of reality itself... if I could just fit more gaming hours into the day. The epic backlog of unfinished games that has been piling up since the start of the year is starting to hurt my pride as a gamer.

Probably my favorite point-n-click of all time. I kind of prefer the old pixelated graphics, but whatever; Full Throttle in any form is a good friggin' time.
Probably grab a pizza on my next night off and finish the game in one evening. I remember nights like that when I was ten. Good ol' nostalgia.
