I think so too.

Which is what makes me skeptical, but we will see.

Well I figured you were being silly with multiple titles in 161st, but then you said there were only six which had me wondering. lol

And I have an aversion to JRPGs in general, which is why I think Golden Sun is long. Nothing against them, they're just not my style. I'm about the only one on this website with that aversion though, it would seem.

How you can tell I've played way less RPGs than you: I am at the Mercury Lighthouse in my file of Golden Sun. That took me ten hours apparently, and I therefore do not consider it short. lol

Technically though, don't there have to be more than six titles in 161st place to merit a list of 250? Or did I miss part of this list and a lot of them tied for that position?

I would definitely say downloading service or something like it is more likely, I don't think a company planning a new console launch would sign a three-title exclusivity deal with a former rival regarding its mascot franchise if it were thinking of entering the console market again so soon. Or maybe that was a test? One can dream, I suppose.

I was surprised by how much I liked "Up in the Air," given how boring I usually find 30 Seconds to Mars. I mean they were huge at my high school, even heard girls comparing Leto to Jesus, and I'm not sure they were doing that ironically ... yet, I never saw the big deal, but loved this song. Video is sleek too, really matches the quality. I didn't find it disturbing, maybe a bit random, but well shot.

Rammstein I just thought was a bit weird, but compared to what I've heard my older brother describe their live sets as, that was nothing. At least the girl was attractive, which is a them I appreciate being carried through both these videos.

I'm a big fan of all of these. Thought I hadn't heard that particular Celtic Woman song until the chorus came in, but I love that one too.

Disturbed's song has a great drum intro, simple too I hear (I dabbled in drums in middle school a bit actually, but played mostly exercises; my friend learned "Sickness" though, said it was easy), so I see why you as a drummer would like it.

When I was a DJ for KSAU my friend and I would put that Coldplay song in rotation all the time. I called him once to request it, and he already had it coming up! lol

"Lightning Crashes" is just such a great song, and growing up in the 90s, it was inescapable. Still gets heavy rotation on alternative radio now. Might just have to learn it on guitar today, perfect weather for it what with the thunderstorming and rain.

Sounds like a soundtrack I would like the sounds of. Mmmmm midieval minstrel power metal. How sweet the sound.

Voice acting is fine when it's done right, honestly sometimes I would prefer I could take the text off cause having it takes me out of the story, but then sometimes I want only text, particularly if I'm having to make decisions, so I can take my time reading it without an annoying character voice doing that for me.

I actually really liked what you wrote. Obviously, since this is a part of your story in media res, I don't have full context of what people look like or exactly what a crumbling Kingdom Tower would be like, but I'm intrigued by these experimental enhancements and what exactly makes the Kingdom so sinister.

Honestly, the deaths went by pretty quickly, and I saw this more as a character study of Sophie, with her past and relationship to Ray, her parents, and the Kingdom, so if that's what you were going for, you succeeded.

I will say there was more context to Sophie's murdering, and Ray's came off a bit random. Both are obviously blind acts of passion, but Sophie's character is explored so that I know why she did what she did, but I guess Ray's killing of a random, incompetent worker could be indicative of rage issues, I just don't know enough about his character from this scene to judge that's what it is. You could write plenty before or after this to provide more context though, this seemed focused on Sophie, so you could focus on Ray a bit more.

Good job overall, I think.

Those screenshots look amazing.

Yeah. Saw this on IGN a bit ago. It's awesome.
