Woo Woo, got 3 good things today.

1. Japanese import of Shin Megami Tensei 2 for super famicom
2. Cubivore for the gamecube
3. EBgames called me for Baroque

So yeah my little collection of Atlus's game grew up today. However it means that I now have to make more time to play game and also start learning japanese ;) that should be an interesting task.

I've been playing Cubivore for about two hours now and as like alot of people say; it is an "interesting" game. Very quirky and light. There's isn't much of a story line other than you are born as a little piggy and you are trying to make your way up the food chain by eating meat of different colors. The game is very simple yet very fun. You can play an hour or two then leave the game for weeks, months and just pick up the controller and start where you left it without having to think about what you've done so far or what you have to do next.

The graphics and sounds are very N64 (I think it was suppose to be for that console too) but good enough that it won't hurt your eyes. However like alot of early 3D games the camera is not really up to par with some more modern games or even games that were released around the same time frame. The graphic style actually reminds me of Katamari Damacy.

As for Baroque I have yet to play it, but once I find some time I will but I am sure that in it's genre it will be a terrific game.
