Santa went bowling because Christmas came early

Last week was just a taste of things getting crazy before the holiday, and it certainly didn’t help that fused all my personas to the point I needed to fuse new ones for methodical battles again. But now I’m up to pair so far and even started helping some people by posting my PQR (Persona QR) codes on Twitter (which I’ll also post from time to time here if anyone has a copy of Persona Q). While I just went to home as usual Friday afternoon a few things had made my weekend. The first is one of the new 3DS themes: Persona Q.

Top Screen

Bottom Screen

I actually like it much more than the Rosalina theme (she’s still cool, though) mostly for the subtle background music. In fact theme itself is subtle (more so when compared to the free Sonic Boom theme) while showing off it’s discorded gear and tower design without anything such as static characters or unnecessary foreground elements. And for a minor but nice bonus it matches the Midnight Purple color of my 3DS.

And it got better when I started selling some trading cards on Steam I didn’t really need: Out of the “profits” I got from the Steam Market I’ve managed to purchase four games. The first game I purchased is System Shock 2, which is on my list of the few horror games I’m interested in playing. I’ll be going Navy for this.


The second and third games I got where bundled and on sale: Wizardry 6 & Wizardry 7. I haven’t really played any of the older games before but I’ve only discovered it through the mmorpg from the same franchise (at least I think the online game is canon). I kind of have a thing for old school rpgs since I played my dad’s gold box D&D games (which I had no idea of how to play until the Forgotten Realm collection) I wanted to check this series out a bit. And now the regret of my purchases: Blacklight: Tango Down. To put it simply, fuck Windows Live and you’re better off with Blacklight Retribution or, if you’re not into cash shops and want an actual first person shooter in a cyberpunk-ish setting with some people still active, EYE: Divine Cybermancy. It was $.99 but after the whole bullshit of getting things done with Windows Live before actually playing the game I just ended up uninstalling it after doing one Black Ops solo match. Though if you guys have a copy and want to waste an hour hit me up. Or get Divine Cybermancy and hit me up then because I’ll very much play with you guys. But seriously I should have gotten Space Hack instead but oh well.


You know that Persona Q review? Might be the last one in the long while. I wasn’t exactly happy with it and could have done better justice. So I’m just going to stick to blogs for now. Till next time.

PS: Christmas/Birthday Wishlist for myself: Shantae and the Pirates Curse, Fanstasy Life, Space Hack. That is all.

thos wizardry games are pretty hardcore, man.  NEver played one myself, but I've heard a lot about them.  

I'd like to play Persona Q but I want to wait until I have a 3DS with a bigger screen.  Looks fun though.

I heard the Wizardry series were pretty popular in Japan as well. I guess that explains the online game.

Does 3DS have themes now? I'll have to check that out. 

I really want to play Wizardry 6 sometime.

They had themes since October. Just update it and you're good to go. Most of the themes cost about $0.99 or a little more. There's only one free theme on the shop, though.

Oh yea, I think I looked up free themes a few months back. I think I'll look again and see what's there now.

I just got Ultimate NES Remix on 3DS and it comes with a free theme you can download, a Famicom theme.

I just downloaded the new Shantae game.  I'd like to play Fantasy Life but I don't have the time right now.

I could save up for Fantasy Life but I have some other things to pay for, such as the Pokemon Bank subscription...

I also bought System Shock 2, since 99 cents is seriously one of the better promotions I saw this year and for a game that's is considered a PC classic. I'm kinda wondering if I should start it or finish the first Bioshock before going to its inspiration.

Didn't they closed Games for Windows Live? Oh well. I don't have EYE or Blacklight Retribution, but i'm all for TF2.

I kinda wanted Steam Cards you know.... nah just kidding, it's your money.

I don't really think it matters since they're completely different time periods.

I guess they didn't close Windows Live for games; I had to update it to get that "feature" to work.

I guess I could reinstall TF2 again, but since engie is an easy target when I play him I'm going Pyro.

Space Hack was just on sale but with my remaining card money I decided to go for Rush and GEARCRACK Arena.
