It didn't register how much time I was losing to Thanksgiving travel and waiting for my Wiimote to arrive, but I'm probably going to squeak by a few days before the deadline.
I've started the City in the Sky now, and the last two hours have really been a gallery of this game's problems. I'll save most of that for the review so I'm not repeating myself, but the tl;dr version is that, wow, it really isn't 2006 anymore. We've learned a lot about motion controls and how they should (or shouldn't) be used since then, and a lot of the things that we're awesome to middle-school, new to 3D games me are just basic expectations now.
There's still a lot to like about it, but it's starting to feel like a case of death by a thousand annoyances.

I lost track of what's going on. Are we starting a new round? I'm free for a December round.

The current round ends today.
I'm also up for a December round, but I'd need to have a short game picked. Already have a ridiculous amount I'm trying to finish this month.

Legit got the last entry at like noon today because I am a real adult! In other news, trying to finish a Pokemon game in two weeks was an incredibly silly idea.
I guess technically I'm sitting out this month since I picked my own games I wanna do.

Well here's my modified list. I put games that I plan on leaving at home while everything else I'm taking with me when I move out.

I have never once managed it, and yet I'm game for another try. Boo the 'no self-awareness' guy.

I can't this month for reasons that will become apparent.

Sounds like it's full of action-RPG brawling and scantily-clad ladies. Like 'Chronicles of Mystara' crashed into a Victoria's Secret and just kept going. Gee, one wonders why I picked that up...
I seem to recall someone here (perhaps you your very self!) comparing 'Ittle Dew' to 'Wind Waker'. 'Wind Waker' is one of my favouritests. Feel like taking on 'Ittle Dew'?

Done. I have no idea why I put something I knew was less than an hour long as its own entry.
I'm up for doing another one if you're picking.

I've heard good things about 'Recettear'. It looks cute and fun.

Yes! I've had that game for like 353253 years. I was almost done with it at the time, then forgot about it, then restarted the game since I didn't remember what was going on, then forgot about it again.
You know. One of those.

I have been in a bit of a classic PC/console kick. I have a sizable backlog so I probably will be slowly adding to it as I go.
