haha, thanks. but my sister doesn't really like video games - i think that kid's gonna grow up more outdoorsy.

eh, well, i got into the persona series. i really liked soul sacrifice on the vita, if you haven't already played it. bravely d also really good. fire emblem awakening was baller. all pretty popular games, tbh. i'll always take a chance to recommend romancing saga minstrel song, old as it is. i mostly play league these days. my little brother got really into it, so we're shooting for high rankings.

what game was that?

>.> Well... that's why you teach them? So they can have the best of both worlds, MWAHAHAHA. But, I get understanding and respecting your sister's wishes too.

I've heard Persona is really good. MY partner has been trying to get his hands ahold of them to play them, since he really, really wants to play them. Funnily enough, he hasn't touched one yet. He's saving them as a reward. x'D
FFF- I want eet. I plan on getting Soul Sacrifice Delta from the PSN store, as soon as I get a bigger memory card. Those things are expensive and hard to acquire, especially in Australia. DD: The "nerd" and "geek" culture is hard to find stores for here. They're few and far between. And when you can find them, the prices really gouge people interested.
I need to finish Awakening. >.>;;
Actually, I've heard of the Romancing Saga. I've been curious, as well as my partner.

I played Smite for a bit. I think I'd prefer smite, mainly because I get direct control and influence over my character. So I preferred that playstyle. But, I do like seeing all the characters in LoL. But I'm glad you two are having a lot of fun~

Ah, my favorite game is Legend of Mana. By Square Soft (now Enix). IT was released for the PS1 in Japan and US (and Canada can use US region codes), but PAL region (IE, the rest of the world... square) never got the first release. They've since moved the game to PSN stores, but still with only Japan and US.
I have three PSN accounts. One US sub, one AU Main, and one US main. I use the US main on my PSP, and to download games that I normally can't get here. Otherwise I use my AU main on the PS3.
Dark Souls comes second in my list of favorite games though. 8D (not Dark Souls II.... -_- )

*cough* I'm long-winded.

Xathoa, your signature looks really familiar, did you have a different username once upon a time?

As Cabron said, yes, I am Elemental Draconis. I've since changed it... err... Quite a few years ago, after I found a good name. It was always meant to be a placeholder.

Sorry I read Aussie-Land as Austin.

That's fine. Thing is, I used to live in Texas. So you weren't far off. xD

Paper Sonic

Hi Xia! Since you have Freedom Wars, you should add my PSN (Paper_Sonic) and then we can be vita buds. I don't actually have Freedom Wars though. XD
Also, I don't play MH but those speed paintings look really cool!

Darn, I thought I included you in the mass post. Oh well!

Well, I have three PSN accounts. xD
But the one I use on my Vita is Xarleksia. Go ahead an add me. If we ever play Freedom Wars, Soul Sacrifice, God's Eater Burst, or something, my partner will always be tagging along, since we play games like those together all the time. Including MH4U. xD

I thank you for the compliment about the speedpaints though! I really enjoy doing them. xD You just... have to get me to sit down for them. I'm not inclined to get ready and sit for an hour ignoring things and doing things hastily. X.x;;

i think i might just get them a wii and the sports games when the kid is like 3 or 4. i know she loved wii bowling and it'd be a good indoor activity.

i really liked persona 4, but i thought persona 3 (while still enjoyable) was shallow and repetitive, for as far as i got, and the characters didn't feel as real. i think it's a case of the plot moving the characters, where 4 definitely felt more like the characters moved the plot. if that makes sense. and 5 has tuxedo mask in it ohhh myy goodd i'm so hype

really? that sucks. maybe it has something to do with shipping costs? i mean, you do live on an island. but if it were just lack of someone having capitalized on the window yet, i hope someone does soon. maybe you and yours can start australian gamestop and become billionaires!

my computer won't let me try smite, but it looks way harder than it has to be. even your autoattacks have to be aimed? and you can't easily see all your surroundings? ggggghhhhhhhh too tricky for me

so can you just use your us accounts to buy whatever you want, or will your ps3 refuse to play anything that isn't PAL region? i never really got region-locking anyway. it's so dumb.

Well, that's a happy medium I think! Games and sports. It'd be great for rainy days too, methinks.~

Yeah, I understand. My partner, I think, plans on going in them in order. Since they are all related in a sense. And he really enjoys the JRPS style of games. So I think he may be fine with it. I need to continue Digital Devil Saga, actually. >.>; That reminds me....
Oh yes, it's a Persona Superhero story! xD Except... dark persona style. It looks really cool.~

I don't know, to be honest. Shipping isn't like it used to be way back when. I think people still believe it's the shipping costs (since we can get stuff from London/Europe so easily and fairly inexpensively). I think people still believe in old shipping costs, and because they always say "We have the money to spend on it". When it's not the case anymore. Our dollar has dropped considerably. It's just stupid.
HAhaha, we have Gamestop here. EB Games, they like to be called. We also have JB HiFi, which is a general media store. So games there too. And sometimes CEX, which is amazing in used games (if you can find it! IT's like Bedrock city). Other than that, there isn't much else. Sometimes small ones. But a lot of them have since closed down. Oh, and Game Traders, which deal in nostalgia, and price the games accordingly. X.x

Oh, that's a shame. It's really fun. I had Ah Muzen Cab- a bee deity, and got him in a skin (after days of earning) to look like C'thulhu! It was amazing!
Yeah, you usually have to manually aim your shots, but it isn't that difficult. And the view makes it a lot easier to ambush others. It's really intense. Though, I never played the normal mode. I LOVED playing in the Arena mode. 5 v 5 of an all-out brawl. Roles meant less there and I felt like I could do more, which is why I preferred it.

Yes, as long as the account is on the system. I just need to buy US PSN cards to add money. We have Play-Asia.com for that. I buy exclusive US games on Xarleksia (US PSN account), and I can play them on the system with any account attached to it. That's how I got Legend of Mana, and will be getting several other games.
The PS3 isn't region locked. And neither is the vita. But DLC and store content is. It's a bit weird. But, when in a place where releases of games are hard to come by, you kinda have to know these things if you want in on the community and games. The Vita locks itself to whatever PSN account you use. I have an AU Vita using a US PSN account (Xarleksia). So I can get US digital games. However, if I get a free code in AU for games, I can't use it, since its an AU code being placed in a US store. BUT, since it doesn't have region lock, I can buy games from Japan, US, and AU (physical games) and still be able to play them. I just have to be aware which ones have DLC. If it has DLC, and ones I want, I should get the game from the area my PSN account is in. (in this case, US games for US DLC).
... It's a bit confusing. But it works the EXACT same way on the PS3.
