Front Mission 4--Hour 69.

I'm currently almost at my 70th hour of gameplay in Front Mission 4 (PS2). There's something addictive about the way the game is executed, the brilliance of the graphics, the crisp sound effects, and the sensation of each battle. I'm surprised that I've been captivated by a single game for so long, especially after finishing it. Thankfully, there is a plus mode after conquering the game, although I wish it would have included all of the unlockable camoflauge options from the starting point. The benefit of the plus game is that you start out with a ton of cash and the ability to purchase every pilot's full set of abilities (that would normally take you until the last half of the game to earn). It doesn't make you insanely overpowered, but it means that you'll be able to use your extra points to customize your pilots in ways that weren't possible the first time around. I'm a sucker for extensive customization. Of course, if I could afford a PS3 and Demon's Souls, that would be probably be the one game I'd be playing.

About Me

When I was born, the era of video games had just begun. I've had the enjoyment of experiencing the entire evolution of computer and console gaming! Isn't it funny how entertainment used to consist entirely of pixels and a few shades of one color, and you could still play for hours? My father is a computer scientist, and I spent a lot of time with computers during my childhood. Consequently, I am in love with computers. I was online when America Online was still called Q-Link and the fastest modem was 1200 baud! I am a fan of Role Playing Games and First Person Shooters mostly. Sometimes I will play Racing Simulations. I am also a big fan of console emulation on PC. Playing a PSX Final Fantasy game through a high end NVidia Graphics Card is a great experience!
