Wrapping up Gaming

That's right, ladies and gentlemen. You heard it here first. I'm officially done with Gaming... In American Culture. You know, that class I was taking for fun with my friend Mimi this last semester? Despite it neither fitting into my Comm major nor my Psych minor. As you may recall from this great post, that …

Holly Jolly Heroes

Boy it sure does feel like I was covering the start of Book III just yesterday, doesn't it? Glad to see Intelligent Systems isn't slowing down with these new units.

Which is something I told myself I would be doing less of to …

The 1.7.0 Update: For Love? Or for Stats? Plus more Fire Emblem fun

As I'm sure anyone watching my blog has noticed that I've been rather busy the past few days.

A promising amount of staying power
