I've only played through the first disk but I like it. It's the first JRPG I've every really played believe it or not. I guess it's pretty standard JRPG stuff. Linear with a lot of cutscenes, random turn based battles. I liked the story that I had seen though. There's some dream/memory sequences that are really good and actually touching sometimes.

so the battles are dependent on when you cross an area/path.. not a given time.

I believe it's completely random, other than bosses. If you stand in one place, you'll never fight.... but if you're walking there's always a chance of a random encounter. (and you can't see the mobs on-screen before the encounter starts)

At least you got a good run out of it. 2 years is pretty good on the old models. Sorry to hear it though. Now my son won't have anyone to play GHIII with.

I have my dreamcast and PS2 to hold me over the next few weeks. I'll bust out Resident Evil Code Veronica and Shadows of the Colossus.
