Valkyrie Profile Plumes your Covenants @ Amazon Today
ShawnKelfonne \| 10:17 AM on 05.21.2009	2 comments

Ever have one of those days where nothing seems to go right? You lose your car keys, dog throws up on the new rug, your dad gets his soul taken away to become one of the Einherjar by the Valkyrie Lenneth....wait, what?

Well even if you haven't, you can experience part of that situation by jumping on today's Amazon deal. Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume for the Nintendo DS is available for the low price of $19.98. It features a mix of tactical combat and the same combo-driven battles of Profiles past. There have been some complaints that the difficulty can be brutal and unforgiving at times, but you can't just waltz into Valhalla after all.

I like the deal! I've never played any of the Valkyrie Chronicle games yet, wondering if I would end up jumping into an already ongoing story, or if this game is pick up and find yourself in a whole story, all its own?

It's based in the same universe as the other Valkyrie Profile games, but as far as I can tell, it stands on its own with the story. Some characters will be more familiar if you've played the other games, but otherwise you should be fine.

about me

Well, let's see, I've got a ridiculously sized game collection, spanning from Coleco to Wii, with much of what's in between. The Super Nintendo was the height of awesome for me, and I still break it out once in a while to relive those memories.

I'm also a fairly big RPG nut, recently been playing WoW, may god have mercy on my soul.

I've got all three "current-gen" systems, and love them all for various reasons.

Currently playing:
WoW
Rock Band 2(360)
