Alright, it's that time of year! The one time where I get to have a week and change off to enjoy time with my family. I'm not going to be able to update until next week, so there won't be any posts this weekend or the following week. However, I'm hoping to get enough quality Vita time to be able to review Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Hot Shots Golf: World Invitational, Unit 13 and get write-ups done for Syndicate and Binary Domain after I return. Also, I have (and cannot enjoy yet) Mass Effect 3 to play for fun (and review later). So, I'm hoping that two weeks of silence will be followed by an explosion of reviews (since I've been so bad at that lately). Before signing off, here's a couple of stories that caught my eye!

Final Fantasy XIII-2 Demo Inbound
I'm looking forward to this demo. Coming 10 January to US PS3 owners and 11 January to Xbox360 players, SquarEnix has announced a fully-playable demo. The SquarEnix Blog had a small post about it here.
I was rather excited about this game. The directors went to pains in multiple interviews to say that fan issues from FFXIII had been heard and everything was fixed. There has been the addition of towns, shops, more side-quests and less linear-hallways to run down. That sounds good.
Where, for me, it started to go south was when gameplay was really shown. It looks to be a shorter game, with an emphasis on New Game + stuff. While that may be fine, the core mechanic of capturing monsters caught me off guard. I'm not sure if I want a Poke-Fantasy game, but that may surprise me. The other downer has been the music. Normally, I love the music in any Final Fantasy game, but some of these tracks...well....
At any rate, check out the trailer below. I'm going to get the demo next week and see if this game floats my boat.
