son1x's mini-reviews:
Final Fantasy IV: The After Years:
Final Fantasy IV happens to be my favorite FF title, and the not-much-changed sequel The After Years is as fun as its prequel. You get to play most (for now, since only Rydia's chapter is available) of the original FF IV cast, the battle system is not changed much and the soundtrack is simillar(more like remixed, depends on which version of FF IV you played). So, if you liked FF IV, definitely get this, the feeling is pretty much the same as in FF IV. The only downfall with this game is the price, including all the chapters, it goes for 37€/$.
NyxQuest: Kindred Spirits
Ah NyxQuest (or as I still call it, Icarian) is a great game... seriously, the platforming elements and puzzling are mixed together very well. The game also makes great use of the IR pointer. It does start of a little easy, but the difficulty picks up later in the game(at some parts). And... it might not be that long, around 3h for one playthrough, but it sure is worth every cent of those 10€/$.
Mega Man 9:
Theres not much to say about this game. If you like the old school Mega Man games, you should already own this game. The platforming and difficulty make this game sometimes frustrating but most of the times fun.
