Goin' to San Antonio to visit the family here in a few weeks, gonna need something to keep my attention in the airport.
I was looking into Front Mission, from what I've read of it it's a good game but the visuals seem to be SNES quality (guessing it's something of a port of one of the SNES ones?), then there's MechAssault, which got slightly lower scoring reviews than FM. I was also considering Advance Wars Days of Ruin...not quite a mech game but it could hold my attention.
I want something sort of turn based like this so that I can also later play at work and not have to constantly pause it whenever I have to do something work related.
Also, while we're at it, good racing titles, I have NFS Carbon and it's actually REALLY GOOD all things considered. And yes, I know Mario Cart is awesome.

Advanced Wars: Day(s?) of Ruin I'd recommend it, too. Especially since you mentioned interest in it. |

Myself, I play Pokemon Diamond practically all day. That's why no one saw me at this board for like two weeks once.

Hardly seems fair =/ lol He owes you a big favor there. It's funny to me how much of my culture has diffused into his. It's a friend of mine that I work with. We sit next to each other in the office, he's almost the complete opposite of me, but he's adopted a lot of the stuff I do...like occasionally wearing kung-fu shirts  like those And he ended up buying a DS because I had mine and my NGPC with me one looong day at work and he asked to borrow mine for a bit and ended up addicted, long story short he has one too now. It's pretty cool I guess. Three of us in the office have one now and we occasionally all play Mario Kart against eachother. That's why I kinda want a good turn based game to where if I get busy I don't have to worry about pausing it or losing focus, it'll still be alright when I get back to it. |

Cool, now I want a Kung Fu shirt.
I like turnbased games partly for what you mentioned, convenience. Final Fantasy 3 is a pretty good one.

Also yeah if you can find em on the cheap they're super comfortable. You might get some funny looks, but I have two. A longsleeved fancier looking one (black/reddish silk with red embroidering) and a short sleeved all black one. |
