i think my PC feels neglected

Some aspects of today's topic are true. I think my new GBA SP has evolved into a meal replacement for gaming. I no longer desire to conquer the world; instead I spend gaming hours exploring the enormous castle setting of Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow.

As a result my eyes have wandered far from the PC gaming news that I used to frequent, to reviews of titles that I should be playing on my newfound companion. An ardent fan of turn-based strategy games, I have become interested in Advance Wars 2 which will be released this week. Taking place in the fictional "Wars World" you basically take control of one of five factions, complete with heroes and their special abilities, and do battle for territory. The game offers full multiplayer support, as well as the ability to create your own battle maps.

Another piece of news I came across was the upcoming release of Sword of Mana. This essentially is a prequel to Secret of Mana made specifically for the GBA. I enjoyed SoM very much when I played it on the SNES; it was a great RPG with tons of hours of gameplay and a pretty engaging story. I think I can sincerely say that I am looking forward to this game as much as Final Fantasy Tactics Advance.
