I think FInal Fantasy Dimensions LOOKS awesome. I would buy it too, if:
1. It wasn't egregiously overpriced.
2. Square Enix put it in the Windows 8 Store.

Tablet gaming is a pale comparison to any other kind of gaming. No wonder you're not feeling it!
If I had to play games on a tablet, I'd wait until the Surface Pro is released so I could install Steam and play all the kick-ass Indie games it has (that also don't require crazy CPU/GPU/RAM).
What didn't you like about Pandora's Tower? I can't fault you for being "done" with the Wii, as Pandora's Tower was my last Wii game, so I'm officially "done" with that console as well (though I'm keeping …

Hey, zam. Have you gotten your hands on Pandora's Tower yet? If you like Xenoblade and Last Story, you should definitely check it out. I ended up liking it more than both those games.

Ha, I just now saw your reply to my comment about Xenoblade.
I have a review of it up on this site that covers my gripes with it. The short version, however, is that I thought it had WAAAAY too many grindy, pointless sidequests (it would have been much better if those were cut by about 80%) and I didn't like how little control I had over my allies (Sharla was always healing too soon, so she'd be stuck in the middle of cooldown when I REALLY needed healing).

The Last Story Review comment
Wait, you thought Xenoblade was disappointing? What didn't you like about it? I thought it was an outstanding game.. great storyline, great gameplay... I'm very curious what you didn't like... That game is a top 5 JRPG for me!

The Last Story Review comment
I had the European version on pre-order, but the shop I ordered from was bought by a bigger company and cancelled all existing pre-orders. Since the North American release was announced in the meantime, I decided to just wait for it. I can't imagine the Limited Edition in Europe came with anything particularly spectacular.
I just hope this game is better than the disappointing Xenoblade. Your description makes it sound less grindy and more reasonable in length, but I'm worried about how …

Xenoblade Chronicles Review comment
I completed this Xenoblade game a few months ago.. it's now finally released in the States.
It is an excellent game and I would highly recommend playing it. It was on par with Final Fantasy XII in terms of my enjoyment of it.

Xenoblade Chronicles Review comment
FF7 is your #1 RPG?
Son, I am disappoint. ;_;
But kudos for beating me to this game. It looks like it will be a race to see who finishes first.

I agree with what you are saying. I look forward to the rest of the bond movies.
Here is my bond list - which you can find on my sister site: Best Bond Movies. It would be cool to see your list since I know you have seen them all.

I noticed your comment on the bond flicks on the blog. As you know I am moving through the bond movies in order. I am up trough man with the Golden Gun. I am not a moore fan yet - maybe his movies get better. I think the best bond might be George Lazenby. I think he was the best at action, and could have been the best overall bond. Connery was great but didn't do action all that well.
I haven't seen enough of Craig and I really couldn't stand Brosnan. Too thick of an accent or something. And …
