I played them in the wrong order, so now every someone planning to play them I'm like a guy towards a grenade. "Noooooooooooo!"

You might want to play Legend of Legacy before Alliance Alive. Alliance Alive builds on a lot of the systems from Legend of Legacy which can make LoL harder to play if you play it second.

I think it depends on the system. If you're playing on a game boy most likely your gaze is already tilted down, so you instinctively look down for additional information. If you were playing on a television, you're looking slightly up, therefore it's better for information to be at the top.

Man was not meant for such power.

The Hand books always felt like an ending to me. Like, if you're satisfied with where the world of Star Wars is, you can just stop there and never move onto the New Jedi Order and leave satisfied.
