I kind of hate that they're arbitrarily padding the game by making you choose between the two characters and making you do two playthroughs if you want to experience everything. Like, no game has made you split up your party and just had you follow both before? Shit, Tales games have done this before, no problem. And it seems like it only matters at those moments when they do split up. No extra dialogue or insight during the time when they're together which is, from what I understand, 90% of the game.

Yeah, I kind of agree with you, but at the same time the Tales games have always been made to be replayed since you always have that Grade shop with certain things carrying over into NG+, so they might have done it for that reason to give the people who play again at least a little bit of different content.
I don't think tacking NG+ on anything means it's made to be replayed. I think scores and difficulties and carrying shit over adds replayability, but I feel like very few games are actually meant to be replayed for any real essential purpose besides just wanting to play the damn thing again. Tales games have never done that before and with this game being the first time they do something like it, they provided a very unsubstantial portion.
I always felt the tales games have that replay factor though, why else would they have the Grade Shop since that lets you do things like get faster exp and such for the next playthrough (and if you care about trophies), I was just taking a guess as to why they did it though, I guess you could just youtube the few scenes that are for the other character though in reality, I usually never replay through any of them myself though.
Who's got time for that, I could beat a bunch of other games for a first time instead!

Hmm that's a good thought. Shame the bundle doesn't show up on target.com so I can't tell if anywhere near me has it in stock.
Picked up Zombie U and Lego Batman 2 yesterday.
Just did that 3 for $30 at Toys R Us
Got:
Lego LoTR
Lego Pirates
Sonic Generations
MineCraft
Portal 2 x 2 (then went and sold these to GameStop for like 17.50 a piece since I needed to pay off a pre order there)
They also had a copy of the Tales of Vesperia Blu Ray for like 9 bucks so I picked that up while I was there

gunnm is not even a fan. He pretends to be one.
But that also applies to Dragon's Crown, so it's k.
I would have never finished the game if we had stuck to playing it at the same time.

Yeah I know
, but that Portal deal made it so I only spent like $25 and got 4 games out of it (I'm honestly not even 100% sure I want MineCraft but I could probably get $15 for that on Craigslist if I decide I don't), plus now I used up all of my credit so all the money I get now is going towards my Amazon pre-orders for all the stuff I want to save up for!

if you really wanted fast/large amount of gs credit. you should of done the fifa 13/ need for speed most wanted 2013 exploit for trade 2 games get one new game for $9.99. It was $50 a pop, especially with bestbuy having sales of those two games. unfortunately, it is dead now. ufc 2013 undispute is another game with good value, if you plan to go back to tru for a second round.Yeah I know

Yeah I saw that before, I don't really need a lot of credit though (Nothing left at GameStop now to pay off) outside of Amazon, so I just grabbed the Portals since they had them and I didn't really see any other games that caught my eye.
 
i did it only to pay off my collectors edition, and some extra credit. i have not used real cash on games in nearly two years. i mainly just move credit from gs to bb, and vice versa.

Haha, yeah I honestly never flip stuff (or sell stuff in for that matter, looking at my PowerUp account this looks like the only trade I ever did at GameStop lol) but I wanted to pick up some cheap games and needed to do something in order to get to 6 and actually use the deal so I ended up grabbing something that would make a quick buck
 
some guy on here at cag had like 6 different powerup rewards account for himself, and his girlfriends just to do conduct "trades", because he wanted to avoid suspesion. he also keeps a spreadsheet of all of his transactions. he actually maxed out the gamestop credit limit which is $1000
i don't neither, my lifetime pur points is only 58,000.

Since Gamestop is Doubling system Trade ins and Target is Selling 3DS XLs for $175, I'm tempted to upgrade my 3DS for $55.

Considering how terrible I think the 3DS design is, I think that's a steal.
--
While I'm still talking about the 3DS, after beating my first 3DS game (LM2), I need to pop something else in the cartridge slot to play next.
I've narrowed down my list to be mainly of games I think I'd sell/trade after completing once (possibly) and am trying to decide between:
Resident Evil Revelations
New Super Mario Bros. 2
Donkey Kong Country Returns (not sure about selling this when done)
Shinobi
Other games I have that I probably won't (or can't) dump after completing:
SM3DL
OoT
Starfox
Mario Kart
Suggestions/Input welcome.

Heh, yeah it really is a pretty terrible design. I have a Wheel attachment thing to make it more comfortable to hold.

Yeah, I'm pretty much buying that day 1. It's what convinced me to buy a 3DS XL ... that and DKCR3D -- those two games coming plus the original library and the buy a 3DS XL + LM2 and get SM3DL free.
I wouldn't mind knocking my backlog on the thing down occasionally in between whatever I'm playing on Vita these days, just need to figure out what to play next. :\
 
playing the game with the highest trade in value, or resell price. that is what i do

I have 0 interest in Fire Emblem.
I'm pretty sure SRPGs are one of the circles in my own personal Hell.
Now, DKCR3D? Interest level is high because it's not on a Wii and it looks like classic SNES DKC games. Hopefully it'll be good.
Also... has anyone ever told you that you have an unhealthy obsession with Mega Man?

You never kept me updated on when you were playing it. Your fault. Go play it on normal, casual.
I know what you mean. Imagine if I had waited for you guys to unlock multi rather than play more Dragon's Crown. All that fun I would have missed out on. Cooking minigame.
Granted.

anyone in here use ps3 media server to stream to their ps3?
I can't figure out where I can get my renderers from... I don't have anything installed other than ps3 media server, so it seems I'm missing stuff like ffmpeg, but I have no idea what to install to get these missing renderers and google isn't helping.

I started up Persona 3 FES. I liked what I played, but man... I forgot how slow to start most JRPGs are. I feel like I've lost most of my patience and attention span over the last couple of years. I love the writing and animation though, so I'm going to be doing my best to stick with it.

I don't know how to help you, but I'm amazed that I never knew PS3 had the ability to stream media till now. I've been using my 360 to do that for the last year or so and I have
ing loved it. One of the best things I've ever used it for. You could always try your 360 as long as you still have one of them.
Donkey Kong wasn't as good as I expected it to be.
In fact I was disappointed with it.
