Update

I finished Beyond Good and Evil about two weeks ago. You'll be seeing my review pretty soon. Which by my time will be 30 years from now. Landed a part time job working at a computer repair shop, it's a really easy time especially since there's only one other dude that works there and the owner. They're pretty chill. Sometimes it gets a little slow but honestly I wouldn't mind spending the rest of my life like that. You know disregarding I can't pay for much with the income from that place. But still it's probably the first time I've felt relaxed and just easygoing for what feels like the better part of a year.

Anyways back to more interesting matters, I finally decided to open up my copy of Bravely Default and finally sink my teeth into it. And if I'm being honest I don't think I've had more fun with a JRPG since Chrono Trigger! The plot is overdone sure, but the characters have a surprising amount of depth and the game has some pretty dark moments. There's a few issues I'd like to point out once I get to reviewing it, but I think I like it better than Chrono Trigger. I'm only like 20ish hours in and just about to reawaken the second crystal.

As for the Sony and Nintendo Conferences. Meh. Sony didn't really deliver, more infamous DLC, another entry in the Dead Island series which I believe is an atrocity in of itself, TV, indies that try to be too artsy for my tastes. They showed No Man's Sky sure, but there's no doubt it won't be coming to PC. It really just didn't pique my interest like at all even less than Ubisoft I would argue. Though they're still quite a ways from even competing with EA's snoozefest of a conference.

Nintendo's on the other hand made me feel like a complete fanboy. They certainly delivered on their end and even took it a little further with a bit of humor thrown in for good measure. Now, I love Nintendo but as a cynic I'm really not allowed to cross a certain line when it comes to objectively looking at the Big 3 and their respective markets at least in my line of thinking. It's not to say I didn't enjoy their conference (or lack thereof) I was certainly chuckling when Reggie and Iwata were duking it out mano y mano. Less so at the Robot Chicken parts, but different strokes I suppose.

That's rather annoying to say. It's the fact that you could say that about anything. Nobody thinks objectively only from their own perspectives. The life of a cynic I guess.
