Still trudging through FF12 and about to wrap up my first play through of VP2. In FF12, what I've been doing is just grinding for a couple of hours per day with all my characters, gaining 2-4 levels per day for everyone, in the hopes that when I sit down in a day or two with a pizza and a couple bottles of soda, I can just run through the rest of the game in one sitting. Just about to get to the Empire in the story.
I'm seriously pondering picking up a DS lite and a shit ton of FF games, like, I don't know, I-V.
