I´m breaking TWO promises I made to myself by embarking on this mission. 1 is that I promised myself to stop buying JRPG´s that I´ll probably won´t have the stamina to finish and the 2nd promise is to not buy any more last gen (ps2) games. But right now there´s kind of a slow time for good new games until summer so I couldn´t resist anymore.
I´m playing it on my PS3 in 4:3 mode with Smoothing on. It seems to work mostly fine with some small issues. It seems like the colors smudge and drag out over the screen when stuff moves, especially with smoothing turned on. The tags that says your location are also missing at at some points the game slowed down quite alot. But it works well enough. The worst thing I have to worry about is the mad burn ins that will be the result of me playing a 4:3 game on my old LCD TV. The last time I did this was when playing Twilight Princess for the Gamecube. I had lines where the 4:3 image ended in my widescreen games for ages after that. I really need to start planning for a new TV soon anyway tho.
But anyway, wish me luck, I´m going to try to make as many choices as different as possible from Jeff and Vinny. Starting off by joining the Soccer Team !
Also, it just struck me what a great sales thing this Endurance Run is. by playing this game like they do, Giant Bomb is helping to sell loads of copies of the game all over the world. I´m pretty sure I´m not the only one that really wants to try it for myself when I see them play it. If I were Atlus I´d be stoked about this whole thing.
