View Full Version : In Anticipation of PSU

Now that the final release of PSU is only but a couple of weeks away, I have am interested to find out how exactly people are spending they're occupying their free time in anticipation of PSU.

I have picked up Valkyrie Profile 2 and DragonQuest VIII to play until PSU's release(or Beta in my situation). I'm playing DQ8 first off, though I'm wondering even if I'll complete it before PSU comes out, it seems extremely long.

Are there any games or activities you're substituting in for PSU until it's released?

Pwning noobs on Mario Kart DS. It's getting hard though since people just quit in the middle of a race after they see me snaking. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_lol.gif Damn noobs. The only people who don't quit are so skilled they make ME look like a noob.

It's kinda like the feeling you get when you go to the ER room and you find out the doctor is a assasin waiting to take you out. its very painful so I play pso (even more painful):p

I'm trying to play games while I wait. Only thing is, I've played and beaten every game I have and I can't buy anymore since it'd dip into my 360 savings.

So...looks like I'll be playing a few games all over again. X__x

I have a job, I go to the gym, martial arts (I can pretty much preform every normal move with a weapon from Phantasy Star Universe) , building technology, DJ at the club, going to the clubs, talking to girls, pakour, freestyling, I build items and devices from video games and made a collection of 6 weapons from PSU, video games, manage our guild, music, jet sking, hanging out.

I don't have a boring life to worry about my most anticipated game and wait end on end (no offence to the people who do), but I have many things to do while wating for a game to come out.

Snaking made MK:DS a stupid game. It's just silly when the most effective way to go down a straightaway is to zig-zag back and forth across the track. I hope Nintendo learned their lesson from this, because they obviously didn't intend for people to get carpal tunnel syndrome from mashing left-right-left-right non-stop.

Work, school, and my girlfriend take up most of my time, but when I play games I've been playing alot of PSO: Blue Burst and I just recently bought Scarface and it's a pretty fun game. I'm not the hardcore gamer I used to be, there are so many great looking games out there that I just don't have the time for these days, and when PSU comes out I'll probably play nothing else aside from the occasional multiplayer game with friends.

I am reading every article on PSO-world about PSU, and I still "Sanely" wait on the Beta to get me through some of the days till the games release, I am also checking out PSU video's on youtube.

I'm playing Enchanted Arms. I'm 30 hours in and only 53% complete. This game is boring me to tears! I'll probably never play it again after Phantasy Star hits 360!

I was going to buy that game until I heard about the longevity.

Thank you for confirming my decision was correct.

I play Halo/Halo 2.. have done practically everyday for the last 2 years.
The only thing I have not accomplished yet is to complete Halo 2 on legendary while picking up every last one of the skulls.

And I wont try that one again!

Ah, cool, art people. Which reminds me, I have some short stories to write for my damn classes. Ah well...I'd rather read the sort of crazy stuff that shows up around here for now.

I'm going on vacation, and when I get back from that, I'm going to have a bunch of fun Halloween parties and other Halloween related stuff to do. Squeeze in a birthday party and a wedding anniversary and work, and I don't think waiting for PSU is going to be a problem. Getting away from all that other stuff is though. XD

I go to an all-girls college prep. high school, so they constantly kick our asses about work. It sucks. =(

But Disgaea 2 sure is keeping me busy entertainment/game-wise! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif I love games with lots of voice-acting... <3 (This one has a hell of a lot more than the first one. Atlus & Nippon Ichi FTW!)

Playing new games coming out, Valkyrie Profile 2 I got finished a week ago, now playing Tales of Abyss.

Jade is probably the most unique main character ive seen in all the rpgs ive played, and I been playing rpgs since NES Zelda and Final Fantasy 1. lol

Never seen a character pull so many wisecracks like Jade.
