Nov. 16th, 2009 07:58 pmShadow Hearts: From the New World gets to be such a damned slog towards the end. It's good, of course, but it's not nearly as wonderful as Shadow Hearts: Covenant. It's much more bearable if you're not a completionist, like me, but I hate the combo system, and I hate some of the sidequests. I've just decided that I'm not going to do Purgatory at all, which is probably good for my nerves (worst. sidequest. ever.) and cuts a couple hours off my gameplay. I'm down to basically the final dungeon and last three bosses. So, not terribly much game at all. After that, I've come across a used copy of the limited edition of Fable II with the extra DLC totally unused. I still can't believe it. That would've been the first thing I did! So I'll probably pick up my old Fable II save, collect the enormous amount of rent one can get from owning every property in the game and not playing for a few months, and play the new stuff. I'm ridiculously delighted by the prospect of having Halo armor for my hero, and I've never played Halo. Realistically speaking, that's going to be 2-5 game hours there, so I'll soon be needing yet another game to play. Maybe a replay of Eternal Sonata, maybe the new Lego Indy, maybe the first Assassin's Creed, that I've still never played. Maybe I'll concentrate on Kingdom Hearts 358/2, which I started but never finished, or maybe I'll finally play the Chrono Trigger I've had laying about for months. I also have Twilight Princess around here somewhere I could play. Or hey, maybe NHL 10. It's really nice to have options.
