-
Dragon Ball Fighter Z is coming out on Friday. Beta's have shown it's a very solid fighter, tons of fun imo.
-
This week is one of the first times that I have been actively wanting a DLC/xpac for awhile. The last few steam sales have passed with a meh, but now there are some things that I actually want, but they're not full games. Kind of weird.
-
Dominica got up early so that she could play Dragon Age 2 before the kids got up.
-
Had a full weekend of Dragon Ball Fighter Z and played D&D last night.
-
Ran Delta Green on Saturday night for a bunch of people who've never really played a PnP RPG before. They got really into their characters. Love introducing new people to the hobby. Although my wife wasn't so happy. I game I had allotted 4 hours for turned into a 7 hour game and I had to modify the story a bit to cut it short or we'd have been going for another hour.

Dominica beat Dragon Age 2 last night. She is playing Dragon Age Inquisition now.

You did that wrong.
You should have cut it at like 5 hours or sonandntold everyone to plan a second game day to finish it.

Would that I could have. It would have made a much anticipated finale and we had two different opportunities to do it. I had promised a one-shot and we're all extremely busy so it's hard to get together. I've run enough long form campaigns that fell apart to know that.

Dude the DBZ game is great! the animation is awesome. although when i first downloaded the game the narrator was speaking english but when you hear the cut screens they were Japanese. Lol my brain was desperately trying to figure out what they were saying and then it made the connection that it was Japanese.

What about the other two FF XII titles?

Oh, is Zodiac Age the upgraded version of the original title? If so... SWEET! That's the one that we've been missing.

I think it is. I'm also eyeing Secret of Mana -- I never knew it was related to the Final Fantasy series.

Yeah, Secret of Mana is part of FF Gaiden (Final Fantasy Side Story.) All of the mana titles are part of the FF series. I actually came to FF from the FFG side, rather than the other way around.
There are several in the Mana side story series. I like them a little more than FF, actually. Mana / FFG hasn't gotten the same attention as FF, though, and they've done a terrible job of making it clear what the game storyline progression is with names of the title constantly changing and no continuity between platforms.

SoM is part 2 of the Mana series. Part 1 has no announcement for a port to PC. But there is a port to Android.

The fourth Mana game was on the PSX. I have this one in a box somewhere...
-
The hope is that now that Mana 1 has released in a remade form for Android, and that Mana 2 has been remade for PC, that Mana 3 might be coming - that's the one that no one has seen since the Super Famicom and is often said to have had the best graphics of the era. Almost no American has ever seen it.

I saw the SoM for the SNES way back in the day... (It may have been on an EMU, I can't remember, lol).

I could never get into the FF games. My brother loved them. Just was too slow for me.
