Went into Gayme today, and guess what was sitting on the shelf? Why, it was Skies - about 5 of them.
I was actually going to get Dark Chronicle, but no where seemed to have it.

So I bought NGC first, then ripped out the voucher right infront of them, then bought Skies. £30. Lovely.

AND I had a proper chat with the guy in Gayme. About Ninty stuff.
So they're no all Sony fanboys as the legends say.
Woo!

AND I found a tenner in my jeans!

Once again:
Hoo-RAH!

I wonder how many Skies topics this is now ...

There's a guy in my GAME who isn't a fanboy at all, but still knows his stuff on all three consoles. Problem is, he's too tall to talk to for long without strain on the neck.

Woo!
Now I'm catching invisible fish. That's always good.

The battles are a bit meh - you can't tell who's going next, which I'm used to. But I'm sure (as with most RPGs) that when I've some more spells and sheeiitt it'll be more interesting.

*Thumbs up*

And you should be able to recover at save points.

I thought Skies looked cool but the game looks too long for me to endulge... a shortish adventure or a really addictive one is all I can really deal with anymore.

Product Number: 03... go get it!

Oh, and they are all XBox fanboys in my local store.

I just have to look extensively at the Cube display and playable Cube games just to show them some proper stuff :D

One of the blokes is *obsessed* with Halo 2. I want to punch him.

Unless the vouchers have changed, you've conned Game.

From what I remember, you've got to buy a game priced £39.99 or above in order to use the £5 vouchers from magazines.
