The Letter D

Downloading Fire Pro Wrestling D for Dreamcast. Never played any of the series but it looks to be an interesting idea. Dream team wrestler action taking wrestlers from all over the world. It has a particular cartoon style which I find intriguing.

Also downloaded Disgaea: Afternoon Of Darkness. Enjoying it thus far. Like FFT only you can throw exploding penguins. Not a huge fan of all the anime tv show inspired cutscene stuff. However the game is quite humorous.

Front Mission Online

Would have liked to see this one in the US. Being a fan of the series, well mostly just FM3, and big robot anything, I am sad to miss out on this one. It seems to change the whole scheme of being turn-based strategy, but it looks as though it keeps the same sense of scale I appreciate i.e. 30-40 foot tall sexy robot action, stomping around in a city sprawl blasting the shit out of other robots.

I was also unhappy to discover that there is seemingly no way for me to aquire this title (even if Japanese). On top of that poop, there appears to be no interest of folks around here to attempt to localize it or mod it or any such thing. And my lazy ass sure as hell aint gonna try no programmin er nuffin.

Ah well. I guess my big robo fantasies are to go unsatiated. Yet again.
