R-Type Delta: I decided to dust this one off today, and give it a go. Lots and lots of deaths later, I reached mid stage 6 before deciding that was enough punishment for today. Tough, but yet, great game. Played on the Normal setting.

Yes indeed! I played a bit farther in Suikoden II today, did enough leveling to comfortably advance through the first major area in the game, and I also got past the first boss at the end of that section.

Okay, so I bought Suikoden II from the PSN store a couple of days ago [it was on sale for $2.99, couldn't pass it up], and the other day, I got started with it. Very little progress so far, and even one of the opening areas is fairly tough, with enemy encounters that hit rather high on character HP. Looks like a bit of leveling is in-order to survive.

Been playing Dark Souls II once more over the last few days.

Prior to that, I was going through a Resident Evil 3 run where I was taking down every Nemesis encounter in the game. I usually just run away, but I figured I'd give this challenge a shot. The hardest encounters are easily the first two, and then it drops steadily as your arsenal starts to pick up, especially the two sets of handgun parts dropped by Nemesis. This handgun, while not any more powerful than the standard one against him, fires so fast, it easily makes short work of him.

Jumping around from game to game, so I decided to continue an extremely long delayed run of Castlevania: Curse of Darkness for PS2. My save sat unchanged for probably 5+ years, and now I decided to continue it. It was so long, I had to figure out what I was actually doing last story wise in my save. Completion percentage is around 46% through the game.

With Atelier Shallie, if you like games where messing around with alchemy/item synthesis system is your thing, it's got a pretty good system. On top of what items you select for a creation, most items have modifier type slots that can be used for increasing certain quality or stat attributes on an item. Also, it's important to make more stuff over time, because the character's alchemy level dictates what you are allowed make, since items/equipment and the like have level minimums to create, and making creations of higher levels yields higher amounts of experience points towards the alchemy level.

Bayonetta has fluid combat, but the one thing that sticks out, is the loading times between areas seems like it runs a bit longer than I would like. It's not terrible, but at least the game lets you try out combos and stuff like that during the loading time, where your character is in an open space with no enemies, with the attack command list to the right side of the screen.

I've started to play Bayonetta and Atelier Shallie for PS3, and I'm switching between the two.

I really haven't gotten that far yet in Bayonetta, but I have completed part way through Atelier Shallie.

With the Fire Emblems, I've had my experience with a few of the GBA ones, and the Gamecube release.

My strategy is to generally go slow, and maximize as many EXP points from the enemies as I can.

With healers, leveling them is perhaps one of the more difficult tasks to do in the game. What I do, is "engineer" a situation where an enemy can continuously attack a team member on your party so a healer can gain experience through repeated healing.

To make this work, you have to have a character that is strong enough to keep repeatedly take hits without dying, and also make it so only one enemy from the opposing force is actively doing the attacking to easily control the situation. Also remove all weapons from that character's inventory to prevent counter attacks, as you want the enemy to not die. Finally, make sure the healer doesn't become a desired target of the attacking enemy. A solution is to surround the healer with other characters from your team that causes an enemy to not pursue them.

One other requirement is to load your healer down with a large quantity of healing staffs, since they will eventually break after so many uses. Since the resulting experience will even out to 10 EXP per heal, using a more expensive staff will not yield any additional benefit, so consume the cheaper staffs for this purpose.

The same can be said about an enemy too, as their weapon will eventually break, causing a foe to have no way of a attacking you. [It's pretty funny to see an enemy trail after your team, even though that unit is unable to do anything else.] So, if you really want to do a lot of leveling on a particular chapter, it will take multiple enemies to achieve a large quantity of earned levels.

Oh, that's right, only certain early PS3's had the PS2 backwards compatibility. Ouch....

However, if you so inclined to try it, how about Demon's Souls, that game was only released on PS3, and was not released on any other platform, not even PC, nor can you find it on Steam or any other online streaming service [although, I believe it's available on PSN, but still only runs on the PS3], making it one of the true PS3 exclusive titles that is still exclusive to this day.
