Still playing Skies of Arcadia (DC). I just picked up both pieces of Velorium (for the Vorlik blade) and found Fina's ship in Deep Sky. Now I'm about to take a ride to the Silver Shrine with Fina. Sucks that I can't take out the Delphinus real quick to get the Vorlik blade. Instead I have to get it (hopefully) when I get back from the Silver Shrine. :/

The same as on the PS3 except with all the DLC included. So pretty darn good. The story is most excellent. I love how the stories in the Disgaea games are intentionally awful yet do better than stories from games like FFXIII that try to be serious. Just my opinion, of course.

The more games that come to portables the better, IMO.

Is there a path for those of us (me) that don't want to spend a lot of time on it (+60 hours)?

The main game isn't too long. I think I spent 20 hours on it at most. It's all the leveling up of items and characters that stretches the game length out, not to mention the post-game super-high level area.

Yea. I'm probably about 8 hours in and starting chapter 4 out of 8. So I'd guess about 20 hours for the main story too. But you can certainly stretch that out if you do some item leveling and such. I never finished the PS3 version. Probably only played the first two chapters. My mistake because this is a very enjoyable game.

We also have a Ghaleon hand puppet.

That's cool man. The girls in that game were so cute haha.

Is the silver shrine that weird upside-down area? That place drove me nuts.

Alex is cool but Nall from eternal blue would be so much cooler.

Yup. And I'm really looking forward to it.

Did you ever play the first and second Disgaea? If yes, how does they compare to this?
