  Few words, big update

  TWEWY: Little to no play during the week, as I want some Shutdown PP. Mingle PP isnigh impossible with aliens....

  DBZ Budokai 1: After 1 week of grinding story mode and tournamet mode(How I hated loosing on the last round where you end up with no money) I aquired all breakthroughs....Not something I'd like to do again.

  EO 2: Main party is reaching level 70(Most are at 60-61) and I am exploring floor 19, it's quite harder than the previous ones . Scylla with a preempetive attack and my party(which means the gunner), I can kill her in less than three turns and grind the bone, yay!.

  Treading old grounds....

  Allright....
  
  DBZ Budokai 1: I have all suport Capsules, all blue capsules, and I am only missing Fuse with Kami. I allready got the breakthroughs for Piccolo, Trunks and Vegeta.

  DBZ Budokai 2: Since I had unlocked everything before, I used the cheat to get it back, so now I tried maxing the Babidi thingie, but after a while, all 4 activities grow old.....still, I am less than halfway there!

  TWEWY: I have all the secret reports from week 1, onto week 2!

  EO 2:On the 12th floor, took care of a pair of red FOES. Tackling the 2nd one with zero TP with most characters was a bad idea, I had to use Nectall to save my sorry hide XD. Finished the Duke's mission, so I can go onwards to the 13th floor.

  TWEWY = Finished

  Hype Kills games. If it's negative hype, then the game won't sell. If the game was decent, but gets a bad press, then it won't sell, and it would suck. Sure, some games do deserve it, like Superman 64(Actually, as a kid, I kinda liked it...never owned it, but I loved playing it at a friend's house), but not all fit frame.
  
  Then you have the positive hype, which also kills games. If you buy a game, all hyped up from comments, you won't like it as much. Happened to me with J!US, I bought it expecting this killer fighting game, but in the end, I was dissapointed, the game was great, but not even close to the game I expected.

  Good games with bad hype: Etrian Odyssey 2, on which I haven't played since the last update, kinda got hooked on TWEWY

  Games with good hype: The world ends with you. Which I finished today early in the morning(3 AM). My veredict? It delivered .

  I mean....it delivered. The hype? it deserves it. Heck, I think the story should have been hyped up a lot more!. Well, below is my comments on the game's ending and the end game.

  The last days, specially the last one, were certainly the best of Twewy, which is a good thing, since the climax of the story was great and fulfilling. Amongst my favorite moments, was when Shiki found out she was Neku's entry fee , or when Beat told Neku that they weren't partners anymore, they were friends. Aaah, that brings me to another point, I loved the character development, since all weeks started with Neku disliking(Somewhat) his partner, but by the end of the week, he grows close to all of them, even Joshua.
  
  A completely believable twist was when Joshua revealed himself as the composer. It would have been shocking, but due to his personality, his levitation, his attacks, everything, it was completely believable. I though that having Sho under a vending machine was a clue that the composer was Joshua(I realized after he revealed himself), since his normal attacks were throwing junk on people.

  And the ending? Pure ace. It left me happy and fulfilled, it's funny how Neku starts friendless, but just as he accomplished getting friends, you accomplished finishing the game....something like that, it kinda makes you feel like you were involved in Neku's success, or something. Although I kinda expected Joshua to appear at the end.

  Now onto the postgame....great idea, but it has a flaw. Sure, text can be fast forwarded, but the cut scenes can't, and the text is long, why didn't they allow us to skip it? Going after some boss noises gets a bit tedious that way.

  The secret reports are obviously written by Hanekoma, so by finding them, I guess you'll discover who is he, and they are a great incentive to keep playing. As for Another Day, I will play it later .
  Besides that, my only complain would be...nothing, the game is a ten.

  UPDATE
  Allright, I shifted(temporarily) to AD to get to Shibu Q Heads and get the stickers for unlimited eating(I got kinda lost, and guessed I'd have free roam there XD), and....My god, is it weird, Neku wants to be the best Pin master! And he is supressing his inner Emo! Hahahhahaa XD, loved how they parodied their main character. Also, my team member, for replaying episodes and AD is, and will be, Joshua, his levitation makes him inmune to a lot of attacks, and up there, he can deal massive damage.
