Heh, of course I have! Just polished off the last few achievements; many of which you need to spend a great deal of time in the bonus dungeon for and quite happy with my 899/1000.

It's a good game and I'd recommend it over Eternal Sonata. Once you get used to the combat and the story ramps up it's a good yarn with interesting characters and a healthy pace. The dungeons are great and apart from the bonus dungeon they're pretty good with save points (unlike Lost Odyssey!). The thing that it most has going for it is combat. I loved it and never got bored, even after 40 hours play!

Eternal Sonata isn't a bad game and in truth I liked the story and characters, I just didn't enjoy the combat which I found incredibly repetetive and a bit unforgiving at times. And who ever decided that as you level up and got stronger you should be rewarded with an activity bar (you know A does this attack, B, X and Y does that) that randomly changes between hits needs shooting

The other non-turn based jrpg is Phantasy Star Universe which certainly has it's charm but is a bit repetetive and a bit too long imo. I liked the way it was split into chapters, much like how Alone in the Dark does it, but there are a few too many of them for my tastes.

And hello! Thanks for having me
