Lux Pain + rant of a british gamer

Days left until last exam : 1 (OAO)<

exams left : 1

Only one more day till my physics exam!!!

It's Thursday, and my last post was on Tuesday... In normal circumstances I probably wouldn't post; but this is epic!
This morning, (around 9ish) I finished Lux Pain!! D8 I was really really sad... I'm seriously addicted... Every night for the past month or so (maybe a little less? iunno) I've been staying up really late playing Lux Pain! It's just really really addictive!! 
BUT!!
There is good news however! As, I was a little confused at the end, because I didn't have all the pictures in the gallery, or all the extra scenes... D': However;
**spoiler alert!!**
You have been warned.
Anyhoo, Apparently you have to play it over and over until you get everything! At first I was a little dis-heartened by this, but apparently there are different endings!! everything changes each time you play it, like what extras you get, etc. [source = lux pain forums, via the official web]
Someone said that you get more extras in the extras section too; like sound~ So I'm really excited now!
Also, when I played it, Honoka went on a rampage in the hospital; killed some, injured others and got herself killed! But the way you play it alters that... so if I play it again, she might survive!! yaay~!
**no moar spoilers past this point**
:)

Srsly if you're interested/haven't finished Lux pain and you read that and want to hunt me down for dishing out spoliers (however small) then you can't blame meh! I said spoiler alert!! :'D

Anyhoo, I won't go into a loooong rant about how you shouldn't diss L.P. berfore you try it, just cause it's a visual novel etc;  I understand that it's not everyone's cup of tea. But I'm just so in love with it!
bahaha If I was more confident with my art I'd love to draw a doujinshi! (not the dirty type though!! (oAo) )
Mmm yes yes, Akira and Mika would be so cute together... EVERYONE THINKS SO DAMMIT!
***
... yes.... It appears I have shown you my more fan-girl-ish side... hmmm.
Well, Anyway, as the title says, brace yourself for a mini rant! X'D
I have a habit of picking out niche games (to the UK market at least). Don't get me wrong, I have plenty of mainstream games, like Pokemon, Animal Crossing, etc. etc. But quite a few, if not at least my favourite games are fairly niche; another code, Izuna, advance wars DS (although it's sequel has recieved quite a bit of pub in nintendo mag), and of course, L.P. Well, you at least don't here very much about them... And I always end up falling in love (?) with games that only end up getting realeased in the US! Take Trauma Centre for example. The 1st was a MASSIVE hit over here, I mean srsly! But even though "Trauma Centre : Under the Knife 2" was released in the US in June 2008, it STILL isn't released here, and, tbh, I doubt it ever will be!
If it weren't for the simply amazing little indie games shop in my town (which is pretty much the only highlight of my town... except for one or two others), I wouldn't have TCutk2! D'8 Tis AWFUL!
I mean; DS games aren't even area coded, so I could play a US game, an australian game, a japanese game etc etc all on my little EU DS... So it's not like extra extra work has to be put in to launch them here!All they need to do is make a few 1000 more batches and ship them out! But nooooo~!
Anyway... This little rant has been provoked by the imminant launch of "Shin Megami Tensei : Devil Survivor" 
It's US release is 23rd June '09. But I'm guessing the European release will either be sometime next autumn, or just.. never.
But it just looks... so... good!! I waaaannntt iittt!! D<
I just hope I can find it on eBay/the net for a reasonable price without uggins of P&P cost thrown on top! D':
GIVE UK GAMERS SOME LOVE PEOPLE!!!

Well, this all fer now me hearties!! wish me luck tomorrows~!!!
STAY NYAPPY EVERYONE~!
