A short list of things I am doing!

Hello friends.
I figured that my current pile of things which never gets smaller might be of some sort of interest. It's certainly diverse enough.
Beautiful Katamari: This game is good, and all kinds of crazy, but...the controls are kinda too loose. I can't manage shit, and I find myself strafing FAR too much.
Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations: This game is just the fucking best. I'm up to case 3 now. The Pastry Chef makes me feel awkward, but it's all good. If you haven't played this, feel bad at missing some of the best writing and comtamporary adventure gaming in recent years.
Persona 3: Fes: Good game, what else needs to be said about it? Going for a perfect social link run in Newgame+
Final Fantasy 12: This is okay, in a weird way. Not sure how I feel about the combat. It's either balls easy, or megaman hard. Spiking difficulty curve makes me play one week on, one week off
Shadow Of The Colossus: Same story as FF12. Great, expansive, you've heard it all before. Really enjoy it, but it's a bit tricky. Add to the fact that upscaling on my TV doesn't do it any favours :P
Metropolis: The original is one of the best Sci-Fi films I've ever seen. I'm sure the anime remake will also rock.
Casshern: This film was stunning the first time I saw it. Stunning visuals, incredible score, and the entire film is green screen :-S
Ponyo- Latest Studio Ghibli film. Borrowed it from a friend who imported it. Exciting to see if it's as good as Howls :)
GITS: Stand Alone Complex Season 1: Loved the original Ghost in the Shell movies, really ahead of their time in the way that Akira was, and paved the way for films like the Matrix.
Kung Fu season 1: It's Kung fu. What else is there?
Mushishi (Live Action): It's the live action Mushishi. Great manga, superb anime. I can only hope the film is as good. If you care, it focuses on chapters
2, 7, 9, and 15.
Hound of the Baskervilles: Sherlock Holmes books are good. I hope this is as good as the rest.
Mushishi volume 2: It's Mushishi. It has some great stories in this volume
Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence: The counterpart to the second movie. If you know what GITS is, you probably know what kind of thing the light novel will be. Batous side of the story as far as I know :)
Across the Nightingale Floor: Fiction about Feudal Japan I think. My friend who moved to uni left me a box full of books, this is one I picked at random
Thanks for reading! :D
