Hey, do you like RPGs? No? What are you, popular and good-looking?

Well, if you do like RPGs, first of all, you should get a PSP. Once you have a PSP, you should definitely get Crimson Gem Saga. It's been out for a month now, but I only just got to playing it a few days ago. If you're thinking about buying it, don't wait too long. Atlus games disappear fast.

If you're a fan of Chrono Trigger at all, look into this game. It shares the humor and lightheartedness of Chrono Trigger's characters as well as the uniqueness of its battle system, namely, the ability to perform double and triple techs. The artwork and cutscenes are pretty mind blowing, too.

Another interesting part of the battle system is the Critical Combo System, allowing you to use timed button presses after to critical hits to perform combos. I've not been able to experiment much with this yet. Seems like something that could become extremely useful once mastered but infinitely annoying to learn to do well. More on that another time. I just got Devil Survivor a couple days ago, and I've got to check that out.
