STRANGE LOG: Anybody Out There?

Hey, how about this eh? A whole new Strange Log, ZUH?! Okay, okay, yeah I know I've been wanting for new articles for a while, I'm a busy (very lazy) man who has a lot going on (actually who's just too tired and unmotivated to do anything aside from play video games after work). Okay, all that honesty aside let's chat about a few things, and boy do we have things to chat about...kinda, let's dig in after the break.

Riding The MegaTen Train

So this is new, I don't usually do video game reviews (the last one I did was "Saints Rows 4", love that game) but today I'm actually gonna review 2 games (more or less). So I'm VERY new to the MegaTen (Shin Megami Tensei) series as it's called and I've been looking to sink my teeth into a REALLY good JRPG with some nice turn-based combat. You see I'm a HUGE fan of "Xenosaga" (my first JRPG, suck it "Final Fantasy") and since there will be no remastered version of it (because Satan clearly sucks at hiding his existence, why else would there be no remastered version if he didn't meddle with it) I've been at a loss. I did play "Tales Of Beseria" and while I enjoyed it, the combat left SO much to be desired I can honestly say I barely have a clue what I was doing, and that combat system, whatever it's called is crap, I hate it and I hate that JRPGs are moving towards that. Rant over.  Anyway, thanks to my awesome niece I was turned on to "Persona 5" and BOY, OH BOY did this thing slap (as the kids say). This got me onboard The MegaTen Train as I've played "Shin Megami Tensei V" and I am currently playing "Soul Hackers 2" and eagerly awaiting the next "Persona" installment and will without question purchase it. Wanna find out why? Let's dive in and I'll tell you guys all about it!
