Dragon Quest 6: Realms of Revelation

The Dread Fiend threatens the land, and the last hope is a hero and his two companions—who are promptly defeated by the monster. The hero finds himself living a new life, and must explore the mysteries of two interconnected worlds to rejoin his companions and defeat the Dread Fiend—all of the Dread Fiends—once and for all!

( An unlikely hero, out for adventure... )

Overall: I’d put it on par with the other two DS remakes, classic JRPG fun with less unpleasant grinding than the first time around and a better experience overall. If you liked them, you’ll like this.

And with that, I’ve played all of the main-series Dragon Quest games. I wonder if they’ll try to make a DS version of DQ7?

DC Comics: The New 52! (Part 1)

General: I'm giving everything 6-8 issues (basically, the first TPB collection worth of issues) to see if it's worthwhile. I've read issues 1 and 2 of everything listed here. So far, I maintain by belief that DC doesn't know its audience or what that audience wants, they don't have a consistent editorial direction, they can't make their damn minds up about continuity, and they're generally just throwing shit out to see what sticks. This isn't going to fix comics any more than Final Crisis did.
