all games are not created equal

I've played both of these games on my PSP on the way to and from work.  I got pretty far in Loco Roco 2, but I ended up really hating it because it wasn't challenging at all.  You're able to pass levels by doing almost nothing.  You can try and collect all the random little things scattered throughout the levels, but I found that to be very frustrating.

On the other end of things is Final Fantasy Tactics: a turn-based RPG.  Each battle can easily take over 10 minutes and, if you're not careful, you might lose and have to do it all over again.  This can get pretty frustrating too, but at least it's a challenge I feel that I can take on as opposed to the ones in Loco Roco 2.

It's like this for these two games.  Buying a game for an 8 year old?  Buy Loco Roco 2, they will probably love it.  Buying a game for a real gamer?  Buy Final Fantasy Tactics.
