So... remember when I said I'm gonna go back and beat Persona 4? Well, I spoke too soon. I ended up downloading the Fallout 3 Broken Steel DLC today and I'll be playing that for a while instead.

I enjoyed Broken Steel, but for me that DLC had more glitches than the rest of the game. I got stuck in walls a few times and so did Fawkes. He's the best. I didn't enjoy The Pitt as much, but always wanted to try Point Lookout. Have you played any of the other DLCs?

I finally sat down one week and did Front Misssion 3's Emma Campaign. I found that the game got much easier once I got 6x RoF I on my MG/SG users. Like, hilariously easier. Especially with a combo up computer.

No I haven't tried any of the other DLC's. Though I agree that Point Lookout looks really good too.

I've only played the Pitt and Broken Steel. The Pitt wasn't bad but it's one of those "We're taking away all your items and weapons for this entire DLC". The story was kinda bland and the achievements/trophies were annoying to get. They didn't allow followers either, which sucked. Operation Anchorage looks cool too, but I'm not really a DLC person.

I've heard a lot of bad things about Operation Anchorage. Not sure how much of it is true, but all of it is awful. Like the fact that you can't import the actual character you've been making throughout the game but instead have to use a pre-built character that's automatically like level 15 or something. Or the fact that supposedly you're never allowed to leave the DLC area, even if you complete all the content in there.

That's terrible. Hopefully not all of it is true.

As for RPGs, I'm getting closer to picking up FFIX again and finally finishing it, but that won't happen for a while.

If I recall you use your characters stats and level. Atleast if not I didn't notice. And once you finish anchorage, you just leave...but you get items to use in the real world.

I was lurking and I thought I'd speak up. As CDink said, your character's level and stats are all intact and you can leave it just fine. Personally, I liked the DLC. It's combat oriented which is an interesting change and the setting and mission in the simulation I thought were quite cool. Also, the items you get after you complete the DLC are great. If you play a stealthy character the Chinese Stealth Suit is so good that it's almost unfair.

To be on topic, I'm playing Radiant Historia right now and I'm really loving it. I'm about 7 hours in. It really has the feel of a great 16/32bit JRPG. The music and graphics are superb.

I'm digging through the Hazuki mansion right now, trying to find that damned mirror.
