I'm thinking about fixing myself a snack and playing it some more tonight. Snowing like crazy outside, perfect night for gaming.

We can send you some snow, if you'd like.

By the way, where in Maine is your roommate from?

There was one that took me forever to figure out. It was actually fairly early in the game, too. It was a matter of lining myself up just right and and getting the camera angle just so.

I think it may have been because there was a pretty good story involved that hooked me. I dunno, I just like the game, not going to worry too much about why.

Oh, metal slimes! I used to actively hunt them. Jason said I was a horrible person, picking on those cute little slimes like that. To which I would reply: metal slimes are the creeping coins of the DQ world.

See, I knew there had to be something! I think I'm just missing the online co-op achievements for that one.

I think that Yoshi game may be the next one I have to get. Hopefully, someone will give me either cash or gift cards for my birthday next month.

Never played The Witcher, but I've been a fan of Supernatural since it first aired. I'm annoyed that the CW and Hulu apparently no longer have a deal, because that's how I was able to keep up with the show as it was airing. Now I'll have to wait until the current season shows up on Netflix net fall. A couple of the seasons' story arcs are a little weak, but over all, I really enjoy it.

I think you do get better at games the more you play. There are games that I totally sucked at when I started seriously gaming that I've gone back to and had no problems with years later. For example, if I'd tried playing a game like Sleeping Dogs back when I started, I probably wouldn't have finished it. As opposed to falling absolutely in love with it when I downloaded it as a Games With Gold offering on my 360. And not sucking at it.

I have to make a confession here - I rented the game from Hollywood Video and then never returned it. It was my first experience with Dragon Quest, and I liked it better than Final Fantasy. But I only actually played it through to the very end about four or five years ago.

Congratulations for finishing what I swear is the world's longest RPG.
