Played an early copy of Fire Emblem: Awakening, then played the Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance demo. WhichI think I'll get at launch so now I'm catching up on the rest of the MGS series! :D :D (3, 4 and Peace Walker, that is).

PS. It's pretty, but I'm not very interested in Ni no Kuni right now. I didn't really care for the battle system.

I'm only an hour or so into it and I like it so far. I don't know how I feel about people saying that it's the "rebirth" of JRPGS (because I'm not so sure that genre is really struggling, I just think that it's hard to get good JRPGS for the PS3) but I am enjoying it. I'll have to see how the battle system plays out at higher levels and to see how it can me tailored to my liking.

Exactly! Which is bizarre because PS2 was the major system for JRPGs back then.

But every time I see my brother play Last Story on his Wii I get a little jealous.

So far, I suck at the boss fights.

It doesn't seem to be a good idea to reach into your backpack for provisions which a huge mouse is smacking you around.

Sadly I do not have a PS3.

Had I the funds I would totally get one just for Ni No Kuni.

I like it so far. I've only played a little bit so far, and I think battles improve a lot once you get a Familiar.
