Dude, you want this Dissidia Potion.

Thanks to aspro73 for your Dissidia Potion entry! It was great. Everyone, the deadline is February 28th, 2009 at Noon.

I'd like to answer edu's DQV question from my previous GS blog. After having read some reviews on the game, I can definitely say that I am looking forward to buying DQV -- even with my DQIV fatigue. My main problem is that the battle system never seems to offer any hook other than attack, attack, heal, buff, rinse, lather, repeat. From what I've read, at least DQV affords you a full-blown monster partner system that's way more advanced than the random NPC comrades you encounter in DQIV. So while before I would have just bought it to experience a game that never came Stateside, boring battle sytem be damned, I'm now actually looking forward to enjoying its improvements over its predecessor.

On to the blurb and pimpage.

===Episode 122: Trilobyte===

Austin and Al discuss their discussion-worthy Trilobyte topics, and receive a pleasant surprise in the mailbag when listener Aspro73 leaves the first Dissidia Potion contest entry. With Pete absent this episode, you can find his musings in ihs Trilobyte mini-episode that went live on Friday, February 13th, 2009. And don't forget -- if you want to win the Final Fantasy Dissidia potion, you'd best submit your essay (of 500 words maximum) about the Dissidia potion. It could be a tale about a Dissidia potion. Or, it could be a story in which the Dissidia potion is sentient and the main character -- whatever. It just has to be about the Dissidia potion!
