Here Comes the Sun September 9, 2009
Past Updates: 09.01.09 | 08.25.09 | 08.19.09
Only In Japan Sam Marchello

Editorial Excerpt:

"I am a big action figure collector. I have a wide variety of figurines from various RPGs, and when I see certain characters that I love in action figure form, I almost always jump at the chance to make the purchase."

Hate For the Right Reasons Michael Cunningham

Editorial Excerpt:

"Final Fantasy VIII seems to be the series game that gets the most hate, and it's understandable why. It's not so much that the game fails in any areas more than other FF games, but that so many aspects of the game are completely different."



From the Editor's Desk

Beatles Rock Band gets released today and I want it so badly. Thankfully, I have a Beatles obsessed boyfriend who will (hopefully) be purchasing the game soon. I seriously can't wait to start belting out the lyrics to some of my favourite tunes like Here Comes the Sun, Can't Buy Me Love, Taxman, I Am the Walrus, While My Guitar Gently Weeps and Something. This list of favourites is also JuMeSyn approved! Though I'm sad, my favourite Beatles song isn't on there, which is I've Just Seen a Face. Oh well! Who is everyone's favourite Beatle? Mine has always been George Harrison - especially when he started doing work with The Traveling Wilburys. Handle With Care is an amazing song.

Moving along, I polished off Wizard of Oz: Beyond the Yellow Brick Road last night and you can all be expecting a review of that in the next couple of days, provided I find the time at the moment. I also picked up my file for Jeanne D'Arc again, and I hope to have that finished by this weekend. After that, I don't know what else to play until I get my next review game. Maybe I’ll work some more on Mana Khemia or pick up my Final Fantasy III save file. We shall see!

Editorials for this week come from me and Macstorm. I discuss my sadness over Japanese import items that are tricky to obtain, while Macstorm writes about Final Fantasy VIII and all the hatin' that seems to surround it. Maybe you'll reevaluate the way you think about the game? It's something to think about. See you all next week!
