k, I'm about a day away from beating Dark Cloud 2. I beat Chapter 7, and now I'm on Chapter 8, which is kind of like a side quest.

This is really a great RPG for people who don't like RPGs. I'll spare saying more, because I've already said enough. Since Dark Cloud 1 is only $20, and this one is getting close, I'd suggest people look into them. There's certainly a fair amount of original ideas, and the RPG elements are few enough to make the game enjoyable to non-RPG fans, while still having enough to appeal to those who are fans.

Up next will be Final Fantasy X-2, finally.
