The Pezman

Bump, because this was a great thread, I'd forgotten about it, and I think it's cool to get people talking on it again. I'll start off with addressing a first: I'm sure the first game with a voiced character (that is, a character with audio that was clearly meant to indicate speaking) was in the SNES generation, as Bubsy is the earliest one I remember. However, I wouldn't be surprised if some game on the NES did it first. Here's one: Which game was the first to obviously be influenced by fan demand?

I'm learning XNA as we speak.

I'm not a remixer (yet), but I've been around long enough to know how this works, and I'll do my best to let you down more gently than perhaps others will. People are not going to hop on board a project unless it's with someone they know and trust. The reasons for this are manifold: they need to know they'll work well together, that the person in charge can keep track of various deadlines, that the person has good judgment of what is acceptable(since s/he is in charge of whether tracks are adequate), that the person knows when to boot a remixer if they're dragging their feet, etc. I guess you can consider working up to your first project a sort of rite of passage, and the best way to indicate your ability there is proboably to comment in the Works in Progress (WIP) forums (so people know your skill at critiquing musical arrangement and production) and to make friends with the bigger names around this site (who can consistently churn out solid mixes that will make the project awesome). As always, this is neither a personal shot against you nor the idea of your project, but you have to be very, very aware of what you're getting yourself into. If it makes you feel any better, I've been here for a year and a half and I probably couldn't direct a project (not even for time reasons, simply because I'm not established enough on the music side of things).

Time to pull a Darkesword. http://www.rpgamer.com/games/ff/ff4ds/ff4dsimp.html I don't know how this info will match up against CT, but at least it's something to go on.

We spoke about an hour ago. It was fantastic. "We're no longer a dead franchise!"

I would have said that before today, but they wouldn't re-release CT without any possibility of going on. This piece of news definitely makes Chrono Break ten times more likely than before. Because the games are still awesome, and hopefully you enjoy the experience even if you've played it through before. I've beaten CT three or four times now and I certainly don't mind a fifth, whether they add one new boss or three new sidequests.

If I were drinking coffee, I'd spit it out right about... now. P.S. Any way to tell how far along we are on the countdown?

elaboration, plz

Re: The photos What, no animated gif shot?

And I enjoyed it. Didn't you?

How do you stick a game into one system and play it on another?

Read that sentence again and tell me that's what you meant to say.

Yeah, but that was in August.

Can you come to Otakon, McVaffe?

I get back on the 26th. So you'll probably count me out.

Yeah, I wouldn't bother. I sold my Dreamcast to help get Final Fantasy X and since nearly everything I played on it was ported, I don't miss it.

I liked Lament of Innocence and want to play Curse of Darkness. I think they were pretty good. Lesser versions of DMC, I'd say.

Let's have an NYC meetup to take a car/train down to Baltimore for Otakon. Now that I've missed this I feel like I have to go there.

I loved Bender's Big Score, but compared to that this one was kinda meh. It took quite a while for the plot to get rolling, and the League of Robots seemed kind of a pointless distraction. Of course, it's Futurama, so it's not horrible, but it's kind of a letdown after the first.

Sorry, still wrong. It takes place before the original GoW, so I called it GoW .5.

This is going back a ways, but I purchased Curse and Escape from Monkey Island together for ten bucks.

No. That was Firion from FF2. Fixed, but... yeah. Though there's no guarantee this game is coming out here. Only indication is the trademark of the name, and we all remember Chrono Break.

This and this are always your friends before you make a thread to ask about something. As long as the thread is here, we might as well discuss the game. It's basically Smash Bros for the FF series. It seems kind of silly, but then again, so did the original Smash Bros. And so did Kingdom Hearts. So I'm not going to knock it. Though I'm not a fan of the cast (a simple aggregation of the main heroes and villains from nearly every FF game... not as cool as it sounds), I'm very surprised Cloud (who shows up friggin everywhere) has not been announced (though he'll likely be a secret character).

I'm sure this is a really simple question, but I have forgotten how to update Internet fonts, so that characters which display as unintelligible boxes or question marks will work. How can I make it work?

Bump. Any other comments or assistance?
