I generally don't do this, but I just put down Rogue Galaxy within an hour of trying it. It's not that the game isn't playable, but for God's sake, your party takes hits like a bitch. You go through items like air.

Here's what happened:
1. Jaster gets a mysterious companion.
2. Jaster's companion is replaced by a couple idiots.
3. Idiots make Jaster fight a boss battle by his lonesome and soak up the EXP.
4. Idiots leave.
5. Jaster gets killed in the next random encounter.

Like, seriously, game, if you're going to make me do a Zelda power spin just to hurt an enemy, it would be nice if every hit didn't cancel the whole thing. It also would have been nice if MY hits had somehow canceled THEIR power spin attack, but apparently Sand Turtles got turned around and ended up on this Godforsaken ball of sand instead of finding their way to the Mushroom Kingdom, because the first they lunge at you with their shells atwirl, you're pressed back and half your life is gone.

Like, seriously, I just killed a bloody DRAGON that gave me less trouble than a simple turtle and a pair of cacti all piling on. Because the dragon, despite setting me on fire several times, at least had the decency to take damage without me having to spin-attack him.

This wouldn't have been so bad if there's just been a bloody SAVE POINT after killing the damn thing, but no, apparently that's not enough of a milestone, despite it having been a three-part battle. So I got wiped out trying to backtrack and save my progress.

So to Rogue Galaxy: come the fuck on! ONE bloody save point.
