I'm expecting nothing but a wall of blue text, because...that right there is GOTY material.

The above video is a SPOILER*. While I am not trying to ruin the experience for anyone, I think it is only fair to share a lengthy gameplay video for those on the fence about the game. View it at your own risk, people!!
However, feel free to ignore this post if Nintendo decides to put up a demo of the game tomorrow.

God, Coldstone is so good. For whatever sins you may commit, Coldstone, know that you will always be forgiven.
P.S.: No, seriously, I'm going out for Coldstone now, specifically because of this post.

Potential to be a cool little first person dungeon crawler in portable format or potential to be a complete turd full of everything that makes me dislike playing rpg games at times including repetitive levels, shallow skill choices, very limited monster variety, derivative story, cliche setting etc...

So of course I became interested in this one (although not really comparable in essence to Etrian Odyssey) I am a fan of the 'genre', and hope this will be a good game.
Off the topic but somewhat related I'm hoping that some of these amazing Wizardry games for the DS get translated one day as they've just released a remake of the first Wizardry game in Japan last week and it looks downright entralling with the overhaul treatment they've given it. Way jealous of those that can understand the language and can play it.

The DS has been very bland for me. Outside of Devil Survivor, there hasn't been much to entice me to the platform. I don't care much for Kingdom Hearts (I own, but still need to play the PS2 games) and the Phantasy Star game is just more Phantasy Star.
Nostalgia got "meh" reviews and I dont want another cliche'd RPG, so that doesn't leave me with many options. I'm still hoping for a FFVI remake or a price drop on DQV.

And last thing before I go, pretty soon we get Might and Magic Clash of Heroes which looks pretty compelling, I think next week is the release of that puzzler/strat rpg hybrid.

Considering I've hit Lv 50, I'm wondering whether I should wait for the next DLC in the hope that it will indeed raise the cap, and get all the packs at that point.
Decisions, decisions...

And there isn't much motivation to start from scratch when the game is completely devoid of story or even slight variations in the missions depending on which character you play.
I'd just be playing through the same missions for the third time, with no skills and lousy equipment.
...Sounds like I just talked myself into a decision, after all.

Other than that, New SMB will gnaw at me like a baby shark until I buy it (hopefully pre-Thanksgiving) and GoW collection will be a nice purchase for the winter blahs.
L4D2 is someone else's good time and Assassin's Creed 2 will have to wait until I can make time for the first one.
And again, if I could just buy the tofu shooting sequences from Darkside Chronicles, I might consider that. #weekingames

I'm going to wait on a review for Assassin's Creed 2, and I might pick up God of War collection because I got rid of my PS2 when the Xbox launched and I never got to play them. Also thinking about Petz Dogz Talent Show. Oh, wait, no I'm not, I'd rather slam my dick in a sliding glass door. #weekingames
