http://www.dqix.jp/DRAGON QUEST IX YEEEEEEEEEEEAH. From that trailer it sort of looks like they're keeping the style from VIII, but going back more to the roots of the series in terms of overworld and stuff. Regardless, if it's as awesome as VIII was, I'm getting it. ... come to think of it, I still need to finish VIII. Not far from the end, but still. It's always a wonder to me why I like these games and hate FF. My main complaint about FF is the battle system being so boring, yet DQ's battle system is even less advanced (in every incarnation)... but it's also the same battle system every game, more or less. You always feel like you're playing DQ. I guess that if it isn't broken, you don't fix it. I hope they keep the whole world map as huge and explorable as the last game, myself.

Maybe you enjoy it's simplicity. It could be a bit more fun. I don't know because I've never played any of those Dairy Queen games.

...but don't you need the drum set?
Well, anyway, is it out now?
And does is it interchangeable with Rock Band instruments at all?
Basically, I can't decide if I want to get Rock Band 2 or Guitar Hero World Tour.
I'm leaning more towards Rock Band 2 only because I already own all the instruments, but then again, they updated their drum set, too, so, well, #####.
At first I wasn't gonna' get either but now I really want one.

From what I've played so far of Fallout 3, I like it. If you're a fan of the last two Elder Scrolls games, then this should be right up your alley.
Yes, you can go almost anywhere you want within the first 45 minutes of the game. The enemies are scaled to you, but there's a good bit of range to that scale, so there are certain areas that if you wander into, be prepared to get decimated. It's almost suffocating in it's size.

Yeah, the bloom is jacked from what I saw.
Quick story that's kind-of related to Fallout 3...
We all have experiences where the employees are just plain asses to us. And I have a story to tell, which happened today.
While some of my friends were at Wal-Mart doing their Halloween business, me and another guy went to EBGames because I needed to exchange some games for another friend and he (the guy with me) wanted to buy Fallout 3 and Far-Cry 2.
The employee asked if I had ID. I don't have ID on me, and he tells me I can't sell the games because I needed to be 18 (which I am) to do so.
So, as a last ditch effort, I showed him my birth certificate and he accepted it. He let me sell the games and I put it on a gift card.
Next, my friend went to buy his games. The worker didn't think he was 17 so he showed his Status Card to prove he's 17.
Now, a status card is, for the uneducated, a card showing that you're Native. It also has a mugshot of you with your birthday. And this is a Government issued piece of identification.
The guy, who is an Assistant Manager according to his name tag, did not accept the status card. And yet, he accepted my birth certificate which was not only laminated thus voiding it, and while it is Government issued, it doesn't have my mugshot on it. Just a bunch of text that I could have easily printed out myself.
In the end, I bought the games for him because there wasn't much else we could do (didn't want to go through the trouble of calling the manager and we were in a hurry anyway).
So yep. Another case of dumb EBGames/GameStop employees.
