You are in a cheap little camping in Menton, last French town along the Mediterranee sea before Italy. The temperature is very warm and there is only the faintest hint of a breeze.

> Go to the pool

There is no pool. There is no shade either. Just so you know.

> Go to the beach

You get a sunburn. ( ITEM: sunburn x 1)

> Read e-books on Father-Dear's electronic agenda / pocket computerthing to distract self from sunburn. (mmmm iPAQ. ♥)

You would get the same "distraction" result from washing the dishes, hint hint, and also telling the inquisitive flies and intrigued bees that you're in the middle of the last evil mastermind battle does not actually chase them off. Also I want to play that card game, so hand over the iPAQ. So Sayeth The All-Father. ( ITEM: pile of dirty dishes x 1)

And lo, there were seven more days of pretty much just that, until... )

So... I was in the middle of a replay of FF7 on my brother's Playstation 2. And starting to play Vagrant Story, which is also a PS1 game.

From what I understood, you kind of need to still use a PS1 memory card for 'em.

Turns out my brother's girlfriend threw them away because Julien forgot about the little detail that I do still play those old PS1 games and told her they were useless now. (and then promptly forgot about telling her so, because he wasn't thinking. >__>)

To which I say HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE. They kind of don't sell them anymore, and I can't buy online anyway so the existence of those ridiculously expensive eBay cards is a moot point.

Saro being awesome offered me one of her memory cards -- the problem being... we know the American games cannot be played on European consoles and vice versa, but neither of us has any idea if the memory cards are similarly regionally locked. It would kinda blow if we found out after she bothered to part with one of her only three cards and mailed it to me.

Does anyone know? Or know where to ask? We both googled the hell out of it and couldn't find anything on that topic. ;__;


edit: WOOHOO. other-brother who still lives home (on the weekends >.> mwahaha) just got a PS3 and apparently it doesn't even use memory cards AND it's backward compatible with PS1 games! I hope it works. But thank you guys for the offers ^__^ ♥




In other news, guess who decided they were bored at the camping and came back home early with no warning? -___- here I was so happy to have the apartment for a whole week to myself. Woe woe woe. Oh well, means i won't have to cook. >__>
