Tales of "Graceless" butt beatings.

So, I have paid off my preorder of Tales of Graces F.  I previously did not cover California sales tax and went back to cover that $5 to do so.  Also, that poster people brought up at Gamestop?  I got dibs on the one at my location.  I still will stick by my mantra of, "I'm buying Tales of Graces F for myself, not to help the future of the series."  Let's put it this way.  I have a 3DS but I do not have plans to buy Tales of the Abyss on 3DS.  It has nothing to do with A:  Mario Kart 7 sitting in my 3DS or B:  My previous dislike I have for the game when I originally played it (I don't consider Abyss to be the be-all end all it was made out to be but I just think the installment's okay now).  The wait isn't going to be murder for me since I'm not going up to a calender, counting down the days to its release as if I was counting down the days to Comic Con or EVO.

On another note, I'm looking to head to this event next Saturday.  I'm still needing to register, though.  I've gotten back into playing UMvC3 (and I'm still kicking it with my Hell Team: Firebrand/Ghost Rider/Phoenix Wright).  Fighting Vergils and Weskers isn't getting any easier, teleporting all over, getting into a long combo, and eliminating my fighters.  I'm not a tier whore, so I'm still sticking to my teams.

I'm still thinking of cosmetic mods on my arcade stick but I'll leave that talk for another time.
