I hate the level when you have to fight the Golem, but I almost died of laughing to hard when I was playing it with my friend because we were saying he needs to brush his teeth and we were just helping him by breaking off his lower jaw, hand, and his head is full of shadowy rocks. smilie

I like Volteer and Cyril in ANB, because there they showing theres personalty more than the two others. Here in this game, they doesn't so much and in TEN they doesn't either.

Yeah, if any dragon, volteer would be after ignitus for meh. Then the chronicler (whatever its call, and I'm talking about the one before ignitus), the blue one and the green. But it's quite funny how the green one talks.... his voice is soooo deep smilie
