Well… this month happened. I was doing somewhat well, but then the beginning of the academic year started, I was out of town for extended periods of time, and I got distracted with playing with some website things… all of which contributed to a pretty significant failure on my set goals.
I did have the opportunity to play a few incredibly beautiful and fun rhythm games. IA/VT Colorful is one of the most gorgeous games I’ve played recently, coupled with some pretty incredible music. After enjoying that for awhile (and actually unlocking the credits), I moved on to Taiko no Tatsujin V Version – which I have not yet managed to beat (either in quest mode or otherwise). I also am guilty of splurging on not just one, but two Humble Bundle packs full of games for Steam I haven’t even touched yet…
During the month, I beat only four games, completed two, but I did manage to earn one platinum trophy, in Remember Me. After clearing hard mode, the rest of the trophies were pretty much a cake walk.

| Beat any ten games. (To match the number I beat in July.) | September 30 |
| Persona 4 Golden (PS Vita) | September 29 |
| Persona 4 Arena (PS3) | September 29 |
| Persona 4 Arena Ultimax (PS3) | September 29 |
Until Next Time!
With only four goals, but not many specifics… let’s see how this goes. Aiming for all green next month!
