Peru-peru-perusonaaaaaa

Just did the Yakushima vacation in Persona 3. And...( My thoughts )

( Current play stats )

Finally, just a few more things I want to say about the game:
- The localization is AWESOME. Seriously, the last time I was so impressed by a localization was Chrono Cross' on-the-fly accent generator. The things that made me notice its quality most were the pitch-perfect use of online slang for "Maya" (you can tell the localizers are strong in the geek-fu) and the great punny vending machine names and appropriate descriptions (which clearly were different in the Japanese version, but work beautifully for us).
- Unlike almost everyone else I know who's played the game, the constant BABYBABYBABY battle music isn't driving me insane yet. Maybe that'll come later, once I'm closer to hour 100?

Have also been replaying Star Ocean: Till the End of Time. OH MY GOD CLIFF DO ME

Edit: New Persona 3 icon, yay! Also new default of smiling Tacchan from Persona 2. (I totally need more P2 icons.)

Bookpost

Well, having done a videogame babbling post earlier that will be incomprehensible to all but like 5 people on my flist, I figure it's time to do something that will appeal to more people that I know. So without further ado, that book rec post I've been promising. Note that these are not necessarily all my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE BOOKS OF ALL TIME or anything, just books I've read relatively recently and have been meaning to recommend.

( Robert Kirkman's Invincible )

( Lynn Flewelling's entire oeuvre )

...Okay, and I totally meant to have more book recs but I'm sleepy and need to go to bed. Also, I am have been watching Say Anything for the first time ever - I got it from Netflix, since my fondness for contemporary romcoms dictated that I should try the ur-chick flick they all seem to stem from - but am finding it kinda meh. D:

But more book recs will follow! Specifically Mark Anthony's Last Rune books, Miyuki Miyake's Brave Story, and a few nonfiction history books (including one about mad George III's six daughters, one of whom had an illegitimate child, possibly by her brother).
