| 8:14am | (Game - DS) Blue Dragon Plus Review |  | | | Having never played Blue Dragon for the Xbox 360, I assumed both it and its DS sequel would be your typical Japanese RPG: slow, turn-based, and grind-heavy. For better or for worse, Blue Dragon Plus is not that; it’s more of an RTS/RPG hybrid. Your characters are controlled in real-time and they... | | |
| 10:11pm | Basquash! Episode 1 - I Am Legend | | | | I know what I’m SUPPOSED to say about Basquash. I’m a self-admitted Shoji Kawamori fan. The show has the most INCREDIBLE production design imaginable, and all sorts of crazy visual ideas, and I usually go all ga-ga for that sort of thing. I’m sorry, though. I’m just too old... | | |

| 6:59am | Blue Dragon Plus (DS): First Impressions |  | | | Blue Dragon Plus, a strategy RPG in the vein of Final Fantasy Tactics for the Nintendo DS, turns out to be a pretty easy-to-learn and engaging game so far. It avoids some of the pitfalls I encountered with FF Tactics and proves to be a good way to pass the time. Blue Dragon Plus is the official sequel... | | |
| 4:21am | Blue Dragon Plus Review | | | | Alright, just finished through the awesome DS game, Blue Dragon Plus. It's been some time since I've played an RPG on the DS and this one was well worth it.
