Final Fantasy VIII - Queen of Cards Quest on Disk 4

One of the most tedious, time consuming things to do on ffviii is to complete the queen of cards side quest. It can take many hours of moving between towns and losing rare cards. However it is well worth doing if your a game perfectionist as it gives you access to 5 new rare cards: Chubby Chocobo, Phoenix, Doomtrain, Kiros and Irvine. Fortunately once you have made it to disk 4 you can simply challenge the queen of cards and she will play each of the rare cards. The only catch is that she is (in my opinion) the hardest card player to beat due to the fact that she combines plus, random and other rules with boss, player, and GF cards. However it is still much quicker to acquire the Chubby Chocobo, Phoenix, Doomtrain, Kiros and Irvine cards this way. To find the queen of cards...

Shadows of the Damned - Reviewed

Shadows of the Damned follows demon hunter and quintessential badass Garcia Hotspur as he fights his way through hell to rescue his beloved Paula. Haven't you heard this somewhere before?No. You haven't. No one can say they truly understand the gist of a Suda 51 game (or Suda 51 trip as the box adequately puts it) without having played it first. In that sense, this review is a bit fruitless. Shadows of the Damned is nuts, inside and out. Just like other Suda games, it's similar to nothing else. It's this unique, influential insanity that make all of Suda's games so great and so important. So in short, if you've never acquainted yourself with a Suda51 game in the past, do so-- you wont regret it--, then come back. That understanding needs to be clear. Otherwise I might as well be...
