Is that you can't pause when you have to do something important. Seriously, why didn't Square put a "pause" button for it? Would've helped so people wouldn't have to worry about doing any chores knowing that the Unverse will attack them while the game is still on. This isn't the NES era Square.

I would usually just put the psp on sleep mode, but yeah, I found that highly annoying. I can see the reason for it when you're on multiplayer, but they should have made some feature where you could pause if you were just playing by yourself. It just makes no sense to go through all of those unversed without pausing...

They didn't put a pause function because they intended the Mirage Arena to be multiplayer. Doesn't explain why there's none on single player mode, though. Honestly, I thought you were gonna say something about that Kingdom Hearts-forsaken Iron Imprisoner IV. Screw Vanitas, that thing can do his job but actually succeed.

Actually I hate that I can't get Adhoc to work so I can play multiplayer. Seriously, I don't have the patience to beat that Iron Imprisoner IV by myself.

Who wouldn't want to fight No Heart without pausing? Honestly now guys.

Pussies, that's who need their little pause function after mashing the dash command to avoid single touches that will destroy you on contact.

It was pretty annoying. Especially when you do the later matches and you have that moment where you have to go to the bathroom. BbS or otherwise I think we've all had that moment where we need to go to the bathroom right before a boss battle but we can't help but get dragged into it anyway. One of the worst experiences for a gamer.

 

Admit it, you know it's happened to you. That's right I see you over there. C_C

And that would be why I just took it with me to the bathroom.

I didn't care if it had a pause option or not, I continued playing until I won. >83

I know! It's horrible! One time I was really wrestling with myself, trying to defeat this Monster Unversed that I sear had 10 Lives and I was like, "I NEED TO PEE!!!!" but I couldn't do anything about it, and some of those rounds take forever! Especially when you need to pee! It's a horrible experience.

I think they should put the pause button during the fight EXCEPT the online mode,because that makes sense though...

I never had a problem while I was playing the Mirage Arena's combat... just firetruck the command board... firetruck it such a waste of time

Exactly what I was going to say.

The thing I hated was that horrible, horrible lag. I have played other games online or in ad-hoc mode in my PSP, but I haven't encountered any game that would suffer from as big issues as this one. You can notice it especially when you or your friend actives command style or when enemies are spawning.

Yeah not the brightest idea at all

But really if you want to pause it, put it to sleep. End of question.

I think this is because Mirage Arena is intended to be online.

That was my biggest with the game! Thank GOD there was sleep mode...except for multiplayer...

what i disliked most was that there was no infrastructure for it

Ugh, tell me about it.  There's been too many times where I've been interrupted rather rudely in the middle of an intense fight and had to allow poor Ven (or whoever I was using at the time) die off because I couldn't pause it.  This was before I discovered you can flick the PSP into sleep mode and it'll preserve your battle.  But yes, I do wish they incorporated the pause button there.

1. cant D-link

2. freaking harsh punishment.... i hate that guy

I wish they had of put a pause for the single player at least but oh well

Just.put the PSP in sleep mode... ot never really frustrated me.

You can't D-link because you are meant to team up with other people. In radiant guardian when fighting the boss with Terra, Ven, and Aqua in your party you couldn't d-link either
