    Yeah, I live reasonably close to a few colleges (and the area is peppered with a ton of community colleges too), which is why I was hoping to find one in my area.

    Back to the game though, does anybody have a link to a video of the combat system in action? I've read some odd descriptions of it.

    You'd have to be pretty hardened to not see a pair of rude titties like those on the battlefield and not be a bit distracted.

    either way my central point is is that the setting of Last Story is dull mcgeneric fantasy, with every shade of brown

    Chatterbox has a few locations in Minneapolis

    Two in Minneapolis, one in St Paul actually. But I hate to burst your bubble on this one, it's not a "gamer bar". It's a restaurant/pub/bar that has a few NES/SNES/SEGA/ATARI consoles that you can pay-to-play. It also has free board games. But it's not what I imagine you must be thinking by any stretch of the word. It's a zany restaurant and bar with a touch of nostalgia (where I've seen mostly families). It's not a place where gamers go to hang out.


    Also this game looks brilliant and I want it an Xenoblade right this moment.
    P.S. The Chatterbox also has Karaoke. Bring a friend!

    You should probably play this game again. It looks awful and grainy, I'm sorry. It looked good when it came out, I'll give you that, but I tried playing it myself for the first time a few months ago... got the PS2 all hooked up to my nice shiny plasma with the component cables and could barely look at the screen for awhile. It was that same adjustment you have to make when you play an N64 game that you thought looked totally bitchin.

    I guess you stopped reading, because if you look directly below the small listing I gave, I made note that not all of them are "gamer bars" and that they offer varied services.

    Oh god, they're both jailed again.

    Telling the difference will be impossible.

    This game looks good. Probably will be out in the US late next year.

    Xenoblade is the one to really look for, that game is amazing.

    I just assume you're crazy and it's this funny little quirk that we all just kind of watch.

    But yes, I'm thinking this game will look a lot better in action too. I'm just hoping that the battle system isn't slow as molasses.
