I'm in chapter 13 of LAD now - chapter 12 was INSANE! :shock: I'm convinced at this point that the boss fights scale with your level, because I had played through all 30 floors of the arena before pushing forward with the story in 12 and that fight against Majima still kicked my ass. Right now I'm ...

The bureaucracy drained me for it is my kryptonite. That's why I have barely been present recently. I won't be around much starti...

Great list as always, izzy. I appreciate the detailed write-ups for each game... very easy to determine whether something is for me (or not). I have a handful I'll check out at some point.
