Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga

Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 2 has hit. Over on RPG Fan, John McCarroll has give the game an overwhelmingly supportive score of 99. The only catch is, I haven't played the original SMT:DDS game yet, which my buddy Fritzkrieg advised me to invest in some time ago. Given that I'm still working on RPGs like Disgaea (chapter 10 now), Xenogears ('cause I want to be able to play Xenosaga someday), and now Lunar: Dragon Song, finding time for Shin Megami Tensei games will be a huge challenge. It may be, however, a challenge that I can't afford to not take up.

Also getting a lot of good reviews at the moment is Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. Well, I do have a DS, although the last Castlevania I played was Circle of the Moon. From what I'm hearing, Dawn of Sorrow is the best hand-held version of Castlevania yet, so I just might have to invest in it, but between this new RPG crisis and all of the other games I'm wrapped up in (Burnout Revenge, Battlefield 2, We Love Katamari, etc.), how will I find the time to play it? At this rate, I might need to schedule a week off from work, or something.
