Didn't Aderack point out that jotting notes in a DS game would be the most logical thing game developers should do?

So did Scratchmonkey. I don't know which of us thought of it; just that it came out of conversations we had a while back.

Anyway, yes. Cing is one of the few developers really exploring how to use the DS, the way a jazz musician explores a trumpet. These guys need more money and support.

Odd. I figured you'd be allz about flOw and the other two games by those people.

Did Vincent Diamante do any sound work for flOw? Or was it just that Cloud thing?

Either someone paid Famitsu a lot of money, or they really like the game.

This game demonstrates even more potential than Trace Memory, and follows through on even less of it.

Frustrating!!

I noticed the Shenmue feeling as well, particularly in the bar. Speaking of unfulfilled potential.

Yeah. The characters are also pretty great. I just wish there was more to do!

Are the vending machine numbers the only things worth writing down? I believe I'm near the end, and... it seems so.

On the localization end, what's with the universal substitution of "trip" for "freak"? Feels like the same guy who did Phoenix Wright.
