Damn I haven't been like this in years. I think the last time was when I was on leave from college and coming home and playing Final Fantasy XII every day after work.

See, I finally broke down and bought P4 (off of Amazon, so I'd actually have the damn fusion table in the manual, instead of buying a used copy from GameStop), and started playing it when I was at my folks' house on...roughly August 17. Since I was, you know, at home and had social obligations, I wasn't exactly hardcore grinding.

And then, this past week, I got back to my apartment, had nothing to do, and thus spent the vast majority of my time stuck on the couch. Good god, this game! I love it to pieces. The characters! Chie is still awesome, and I have professed my love for her ability to save my ass with Galactic Punt on numerous occasions. Naoto's first action ever, before I swapped to Direct Commands, was, uh, Megidola. My reaction? "CHRIST, CHILD! You are a terrifying little package of death, aren't you?" (I'm vaguely distressed that I find Naoto kinda hot. I don't know if it's more of the "dude, SIXTEEN!" than anything else.)

I've been reading the Let's Play: Persona 3, which is brilliantly done, taking P3 as if it were the protag's LJ. That, combined with the announcement of P3P (and the never-played copy of FES sitting by my desk), is making me want to take another stab at P3, since I never finished it. (Stupid Tartarus guardian I couldn't beat) Problem is that I've grown very, very attached to P4's battle system and would probably scream awhile about not having direct control over my other party members.

Anyway, since term starts on Wednesday, I'm not going to be able to play much more. I don't think I can beat it in 2 days, though. (currently in October, gametime) Well, I probably could, but I'd be delirious for the start of term. That'd be poor.

"Crap! Um, I've got a charred piece of meat here."

"That's called a steak. That's dinner. What about the sacrifices?"
