The World Ends With You

Square Enix is famous for brining us games from the Final Fantasy Franchise and others like Kingdom Hearts. But this time, they have decided to break out from their usuals and provide us with a new game that is innovative and at the same time awesome.
The World Ends With You is an RPG that is set in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. I have been spending quite some time on this game for a while. I haven’t been addicted to a game so much since Warcraft a long long time ago. I’m not going to write a review for the game. There are a lot of reviews out there already.
The best part of the game is the battle system. You control two characters who are fighting simultaneously against monsters known as “noise”. One character is controlled via the touchscreen using the stylus and the other character is at the upper screen and is controlled by key presses. Two videos of the battle system.
And lastly, I LOVE the soundtrack. It’s a mix of hip hop and trance.
There are of course many other nice features of this game. You can find out more by reading reviews like this. Otherwise, go grab a DS and play it. =)

According to Eric, this is the last year where I’ll be a teenager because this is the last year where my age has the suffix “-teen” in it. And it so happens that my lunar birthday is today as well. What a coincidence which, again, according to Eric occurs once every nineteen years.
Had a drink just now and even though I am far from being drunk, I can feel the drowsiness seeping in. I need to hit the sack soon.
Mr Wong, Miss Lim and gang gave me a wallet for my birthday and the design turned out to be an imitation/parody of the Intel logo. Real nerdy. Thanks a lot guys!
And it just so happens that the soundtrack for a game I ordered arrived today. Another coincidence. I will probably write more about the game next time.
On a totally unrelated note, a good read about National Service of which we are all compelled to serve.

Deja Vu
Where did we meet before just like this
I know your smile
Your voice just like that
You talk to me and I smile back
I don’t believe in fantasy
Same dress that now reminds me
Something I can’t forget
Same song same tone in your voice
Tell me this isn’t a dream
Take me forward, stars are still asleep
You and me, we live forevermore
I would follow you my destiny
Won’t you get my favorite photograph
I’m getting played by you
Deja vuWhere did we meet before just like this
