This is definitely one of the best RPGs I’ve played this year.

Probably the best fully original title to hit Sony’ Portable since «Lumines.» It’s a solid action RPG set against an old Eastern backdrop that bears a resemblance in style to Bioware’s «Jade Empire.»

It has a few nagging issues that keep the welcome mat from being all wide open on the front doorstep, namely the lack of the block option or the ability to see the worlds around you. However, it is a rewarding adventure with an enriched battle system, mixed with upgradeable chi and adhoc/infrastructure support.

While Kingdom of Paradise does have several faults, the most hindering being the camera and the lack of a proper blocking mechanism, the game is still the best RPG on the PSP, and also one of the handheld’s better games.

The game almost seems to negate the use of combos at points, which is thanks, in large part, to the infuriatingly poor blocking system.

The story never really gets interesting, but the action-heavy combat system is fresh and gets more fun the longer you play. [Jan 2006, p.128]

In between the unsatisfying battles and the go-nowhere story, there’s a lot of searching for the right area or person that will trigger the next cutscene, and a lot of wandering back and forth for the sake of extending the game’s playtime.

PRO: good graphics, smooth motion, cool combat system CON: long load times when moving to new areas, no «JUMP», kinda difficult at the beginning.

This game should not be on the PSP. it wants to be a full fledged console game vut knew it would die if it was relesed on any other console. This game should not be on the PSP. it wants to be a full fledged console game vut knew it would die if it was relesed on any other console. the cut scenes go on forever & when they end you know less then you did in the begining. the plot twists are so pathetc i saw ever single one coming. the combat is dull & repetitive but & sadly the highlight of this game however it takes you a good half hour to get any uninterruptid time with it. also your objectivezs are vague, & ever single character is visualy unapealing. this is quit simply a bad game but if you’re game starved, & very patient, you maybe able to sques a couple of drops of fun from this lemon of a game.… Expand

tsunami destroys everything in its path
January 16, 2022

Maria Skorodilko
Over 230,000 residents of Japan must be evacuated due to a dangerous tsunami that is approaching the country. Local authorities warn that the height of the waves in the coastal areas of an entire group of islands in the Pacific Ocean can reach three meters in height. The eruption of an underwater volcano began two days ago and continues to this day. A possible tsunami was announced by the authorities of many fears in the Oceania region.
Waves over a meter high, streams of water wash away everything in their path. A real hell on the paradise islands near the capital of the kingdom of Tonga came because a volcano erupted in the Pacific Ocean. Columns of gas, smoke and ash, escaping from the vent, reached a height of 20 kilometers. Thunder-like sounds were heard even in Fiji.
The Australian weather bureau was the first to report giant waves in the coastal areas of the capital of Tonga. Local residents began to leave their homes — they escaped from the water, climbing up the hill.
The elements destroyed the coastline and damaged buildings. The King of Tonga is evacuated from his palace along with the inhabitants of the capital quarter, the streets of which are partially flooded. The Internet has stopped working in the country. According to local residents, the Earth shook under their feet for several minutes. Many thought that bombs were exploding somewhere nearby. Soon the water destroyed the walls of the houses.
Someone risked his life for the sake of spectacular shots against the backdrop of the elements. Here is a man taking a picture of himself, not paying attention to the fact that a wave is rolling in from the sea. She ends up tearing him down and everything else. Authorities are urging residents to urgently leave coastal areas. Official services warn: waves can reach a height of three meters.
The head of the Kingdom’s Geological Survey has urged people to close rainwater tanks in case of acid rain.
The Meteorological Agency reported that due to the activity of the volcano, the sea level in Japan may change. Experts call the eruption a «surprise».
«The most interesting thing is how quickly and violently it spread. This eruption turned out to be much larger, rapidly developing, with much more ejected ash. I expect a layer of ash a few centimeters thick will settle on Tonga,» said geologist Professor David Tappin.
The tsunami also hit the Japanese islands a few minutes after the warning. In Japan, powerful floods of water flooded more than 10 ships. Another one completely swept into the open ocean.
Local experts have already called the eruption the most powerful in the last 30 years. Tsunami warnings following the volcanic eruption were issued by the authorities of many countries in the region, from Australia to the United States. Minor flooding — in Hawaii. In New Zealand, which is more than 2,000 kilometers from the volcano, authorities have warned residents of high storm tides. A tsunami threat has also been announced on the Kuril Islands.
According to the Russian emergency services, there is no threat to the population of Russia. The height of the wave in the area of the Kuril Islands, according to experts, will not exceed 20 centimeters.

How to relax without going abroad: WaiTai Spa introduced new programs | Chita.
ru
You can plunge headlong into the atmosphere of a tropical holiday

warm sea beach. However, returning to reality, business, work and closed borders hint to stay. Oh, if only for a couple of hours to escape from the routine, throw off the shackles of fatigue, relax and plunge into the atmosphere of a tropical holiday. Especially for those who are thirsty for complete relaxation, the paradise kingdom «WaiTai» has prepared three new items that can replace a full-fledged trip to the country of the hot sun.
The journey to velvety begins with steaming in a cedar barrel or sauna. The heat will help you relax and prepare your skin for the next step, the aloe vera body wrap. The plant is famous for its amazing properties — it saturates the skin with moisture and oxygen, nourishes the deep layers of the dermis and is suitable for the most sensitive skin. After wrapping, like a real tropical rain, a warm shower will disperse with pleasant drops throughout the body. Complete the bliss with a relaxing spa with aloe vera cream. This will soothe the skin and make it smooth. If you listen closely, you can hear the body quietly whispering thanks.
The delicate aroma of fresh roses permeates this complex through and through, creating a mood of harmony and love. It all starts with a pleasant bath filled with delicate petals of this marvelous flower. Then the skin will be refreshed by gentle peeling, and the final chord of rose delight will be a relaxing aroma spa with rose oil. As a result, we get a radiant, attractive, satiny skin that you want to touch again and again. Be careful, this complex turns girls into lovely nymphs.
This is what is so lacking in the summer heat. When the sun reigns in full force on the street, a complex filled with notes of oriental tea, unobtrusive and pleasantly refreshing, comes to WaiTai. First, the body is immersed in a bath with lush and soft, like a cloud, foam. After the skin is scrubbed with oriental tea. This amazing ingredient has an exfoliating, toning and detoxifying effect. This complex also includes a relaxing facial spa: scrub + cream or mask + cream. After this, no one else will ask about the tired look, get ready to receive only compliments. The final stage of the journey is a charming aroma spa with Oriental Tea cream.
Those who are lucky enough to experience the fireworks of pleasure at Wai Tai simply cannot contain their impressions and share them with others. For this, the salon has gift certificates, so you can give your loved ones a trip to Thailand, and for this it is not at all necessary to buy an expensive ticket. Moreover, with the help of the certificate you are doing a good deed.
Traditionally, WaiTai donates 10% of each sold gift certificate to charity. For example, on June 1, the salon gave a bright holiday to the guys from the Ingodinsky Center for Social Services for the Population «Mercy». The center takes care of children from large families, disabled children and children from single-parent families who are in a difficult life situation.
