Day 4 - Your Guilty Pleasure Game
Are we counting iOS and Android games? Because if so then Angry Birds would probably be my guilty pleasure game. XD

Yoshi. I know it's an old game but I still enjoy it xD. I play it every night before going to bed. It helps me to clear my mind.
Re: 30 Days of Gaming
Day 5 Videogame character you are most like.
I would have to say Grace Nakimura from The Gabriel Knight Series. Just without the brains. I love researching, and traveling, and can put up with impossible people.
For those who don't know Grace
I would have to say Grace Nakimura from The Gabriel Knight Series. Just without the brains. I love researching, and traveling, and can put up with impossible people.
For those who don't know Grace
- Spoiler:
At the start of the trilogy, Grace has taken a hiatus from her Ivy-league doctorate ambitions and moved to New Orleans and took a job at St. George's Rare Books on a whim; partly to seek adventure, and partly to escape the oppressive tradition her Japanese parents try to push on her. Optimistic and intelligent, Grace has strong sense of danger, a willingness to believe in the supernatural, and a talent for research. When not book-keeping and researching for her employer, she practices Tai Chi and oil painting, two talents which prove useful in Gabriel's first case. The second entry in the series sees Grace taking a more proactive role, becoming a playable character who takes up the research and historical context aspect of the game, much to Gabriel's chagrin. She at times displays a hostility toward people who are unwilling to aid her in her research, in particular Gerde, the housekeeper of Schloss Ritter. Her perseverance proves vital to Gabriel's investigation and his life, leading him to re-examine his over-protective attitude toward her and regard her as a full partner by the time of the third game. While she often regards Gabriel with dismay and sarcasm, it is apparent that they do indeed care for each other, perhaps beyond the realm of a platonic relationship.
In Gabriel Knight 3, Grace falls asleep when Prince James's son is kidnapped and is brought to Rennes-le-Château by his men, Mallory and McDougall. Joining the tour Grace learns of and discovers Le Serpent Rouge, a bizarre poem which contains clues to the location of the treasure. Over the course of the game Grace not only discover that the treasure is not in fact what she thinks but also that Emilio Baza is the Wandering Jew. In the final parts of the game she assists Gabriel through a radio as he faces the many dangers of the underground temple.
Reception[edit]
Grace was included on GameSpot's late 1990s lists of the ten ten best sidekicks and "definitely" one the top ten female characters overall, as chosen by the staff and readers alike. According to GameSpot, "what's interesting about Grace is that she's simply a more likeable character than the series' namesake. Grace is intelligent and resourceful, and playing her...was usually more interesting than playing Gabe himself." GameSpot also wrote that if Gabriel Knight 3 "had been all about Grace, it would probably have been a much better game. Grace is everything you want from a character, female or otherwise." In 2007, Tom's Games included her on the list of the 50 greatest female characters in video game history, stating that "perhaps more than any other female character, Grace puts brains back into adventure gaming", commenting that she is "a bit of an anomaly in modern video games" as she "looks like a bookworm and doesn't dress in sexy outfits or have out-sized proportions", and adding that she could have been portrayed by Grace Park. Grace was the first video game crush of Charlie Barratt, GamesRadar's Senior Microsoft Editor, who wrote that "above everything else, she felt real. To a more pure and innocent me, that was more attractive than any skimpy costume or nude cheat could ever be." According to USgamer's Pete Davison in 2013, "Grace Nakimura remains one of the best, most realistic female characters in game history."

Day 5 - Game character you feel you are most like: Chie Satonaka from Persona 4
Its kinda scary how similar Chie and I are. Not just in her energy and her boyishness and her love for old martial arts movies, but down to her deep-seated flaws and her relationship with her best friend Yukiko.

Day 5 - Game character you feel you are most like: Tidus From Final Fantasy X
He's an upbeat, carefree guy who is a little childish at times, but he can be serious when he needs to. sounds like me.

Re: 30 Days of Gaming
I would have to say Jessica from Lunar Silver Star Story Complete. This was hard for me because there were two other characters in the game series that I feel like I am like. but I chose Jessica because she has two sides to her. She has that fun, loving take care of everyone side and then there is that bad chick side to her where no one can run over her.

Day 5 - Game Character You Feel You Are Most Llike
This one was tougher than I thought it would be, but in the end I decided to go with Bartz from Final Fantasy V. He goes through life just doing his thing, is easygoing and playful (I may be a bit more high-strung than him), can be serious when he needs to be, he is levelheaded to the point where he wtf's at everyone else always going overboard, and cares very much for friends and family. He's also afraid of heights which is a thing I can definitely identify with.
I find that Dissidia puts a lot of emphasis on his playfulness and easygoingness, so I don't find I identify as much with his Dissidia character as I do his original character in FFV.

Day 6 - Most Annoying Character
It's rare that I find characters annoying, but holy cow did I find Fuuka Yamagishi from Persona 3 annoying. I never did finish the game, I actually stopped not long after she joined, but I just couldn't stand her.

Day 6 - Most Annoying Character: Lymle Lemuri Phi from Star Ocean 4
Its like her VA wasn't even trying. Its obvious she's supposed to be cute but when her voice sounds totally dead its just irritating.
^Also Holsety I PROMISE she gets less annoying. Or maybe I just got used to her.

Day 6 - Most annoying character: Mr. Resetti from Animal Crossing
His whole purpose in the game is to punish and annoy you for not resetting your game. so The choice was obvious...

Re: 30 Days of Gaming
Ohh I can go on total rants here, but have to keep it in game. I have two major ones that are tied. Alicia Melchiott from Valkyria Chronicles. Her character is so annoying, but you have to use her to get extra CP. (un)fortunately her character cannot die in game. So you can leave her to die on the battlefield and she will bounce back to life.
Kos-Mos from the Xenosaga series. She spends most of the series "asleep" or needing repairs. By the time you get to use her she is so underleveled that it is not even worth it. I would have just left her in the garbage bin (Seriously even Vector threw her in the trash).
Any hoo the main reason why I hate these character is because they are supposed to BAMF and their fanbases swoon at the mention of the character, but they were not. It was all freaking hype.

Re: 30 Days of Gaming
It's rare that I dislike characters in games, but there is just ONE character that I always hated. I just really hate Tidus from FF10. Of all the games I have ever played, he is the one that I just never really cared for.
Re: 30 Days of Gaming
^ wait a second. I said Tidus was the character most like me... so.... Luna hates me!! D':

Day 7 - Favorite game couple.
*Waves transparent flag* I have none. Most of the canon couples in game are forced and should never be together.

Re: 30 Days of Gaming
KC I love you but I hate tidus and you do NOT remind me of Tidus xD just sayin.
ok favorite game couple. This was hard for me to because there were a lot that I really liked. Though I would have to say Fran and Balthier from Final Fantasy 12 so far are the best team couple that I love.

I'm not really into this kinda stuff but for one exception: Levin and Fury from Fire Emblem 4. It's hard for me not to pair them together when I play this game. XD I love them together and also they are TRAGIC COUPLE. I love me some tragedy.

Day 4 - Your guilty pleasure game. Turok! I don't know any of the story, but you basically had to kill dinosaurs. I only used the tomahawk, though, so it was bloody. The guns were too hard to aim with and reload/ switch quick enough. >.<
Day 5 - Game character you feel you are most like. Blink says I'm like Luigi because I'm derpy. lol I'm Italian, too.XD
Day 6 - Most annoying character. Tom Nook from Animal crossing. He acts like he's doing you a favor by selling you a house, but really, he gives you a massive debt.>o< During the tutorial you have to work for him, too, and it takes forever.
Day 7 - Favorite game couple. Count Bleck and Timpani from Super paper mario. The back story was awesome.^-^ and the concept of fate was played with a lot around them. :o

None, as in I don't really feel guilty about playing any games XD... I must say to red though, I so played the game you mentioned there haha. I loved it though ^^. You should try Project X Zone if you like it.
Day 5 - Game character you feel you are most like
Um.... this is a hard one lol. One that does have some traits of my personality I think though would be Zephie from Magna Carta 2. She's cares a lot for others and is sweet, but she also is a very strong lady with a strong character you don't want to mess with.
Day 6 - Most annoying character
That one is easy, first character to come to my mind : Anise from Tales of the Abyss..... omg xD... She's cute and she have an interesting fight style, but man number of times I was annoyed by her omg... XD
Day 7 - Favorite game couple
Zidane and Dagger from FF9 :

Re: 30 Days of Gaming
Ohh this is a hard one because sometimes the music sets the tone of the game. There are a lot of games that have excellent soundtracks.
Best OST - Ar Tonelico series. Xenosaga and Lunar were very close seconds.
Best in game music. Gabriel Knight: The Beast Within (2).
