Even though I was off today, went in to pick up my copy of Warriors Orochi 2. Simply put, so far, I'm happy with it!

It's essentially a direct sequel to the first one, and this time, people actually seem to realize that they're not all from the same place. In the previous game, the only people I saw question anything were Jiang Wei and Sun Ce. ... And everyone else just went on their merry way, lol.

In this one, though, there's more than just the story modes and free play (still no Japanese track... maybe I'll start flooding Koei with 'put Japanese track in' opinion cards. Honestly, they can do like the Naruto game did, and offer a download off of Xbox Live...). One such mode is called Tag Team survival mode, and it's essentially a fighter (a la Soul Calibur and Virtua Fighter). It's pretty fun cause you can pick all the characters you want once they're unlocked, and I have so many favorites to choose from 8)

The graphics are pretty, but I'm having a bit of an issue with the camera... It stays stuck above their heads, about 7 feet back, looking down at an angle at the character you're playing. I feel like I'm about to dive into the ground.

In other news, my Nightwing comics came in 8| Nightwing: The Lost Year, and Nightwing: Renegade. ... I'm a LITTLE confused because The Lost Year has Barbara Gordon and Dick Grayson ... in a couple? Firstly, Barbara Gordon is a lesbian. I'm serious - that's not just me preferring Dick with... well, Bruce, Tim, or Roy... Anyone remember that show on the WB about the girl superhero team named after birds? Birds of Prey I think? She was the woman in the wheelchair... the entire team was lesbians, and some even hated men 8|; Secondly, even if she wasn't a lesbian, Dick was only attracted to her because she was a red-head (why, when he can have Roy instead!)... She shot him down cold 8|

I seem to recall when she tried to blackmail Batman and (the first) Robin into letting her be her own vigilante, threatening to reveal their identities to the world. While Robin was all Ohnoes!, Batman simply said "You're Barbara Gordon" ... haha, way to even the odds, Bruce. In any case, that scenario in and of itself would turn someone as much like Bruce as Dick is...

The art in both are not bad... Too bad none of the artists make Dick as handsome/cute as he's supposed to be. 8| But that's just a personal complaint...

Onto WoW

I'm waiting for Disgaea DS and Rhapsody for my ds 8| And... I'm ashamed to say, never really had much interest for Kirby. Not that he's bad, just not a draw for me.

Nah, working tomorrow. I don't have to go in until 1:30 (I hope - the ASM does have a transportation method, so hopefully, I won't be told to come in for the morning shift. ugh) so I can at least stay up for a little bit. And I'm pretty bored in wow right now...
