Why you gotta be hatin'?
The game is nothing but boring sidequest after boring sidequest. If you took out all of the pointless missions, the game wouldn't be half as long. Let me give you an example.
The quest is to go overseas to find Doulmagus, and kill him. But first you need to find a boat. You find the boat but it's beached and can't be moved, so you go back to your castle to research a way. When you can't figure out a way, the weird harp playing guy comes along and says that he will move it with his magical harp. Yey! But his harp isn't strong enough. First you need to go a neighboring kingdom and see if you can have their harp because you helped them in a sidequest earlier. The king says yes, but when you go to the underground vault, a bunch of moles dug their way into it and made off with the harp. So you need to track them back to their hideout and fight them for it. Now you have the harp to get the boat into the water. You make your way across the sea to Doulmagus but he's protected himself within 'the darkness' and now you need some means to blow away 'the darkness'. So you look for the mirror with enough power to do so. But the only mirror powerful enough to do this is one of another kingdom’s treasures and the king can't just give you a relic of historical importance. So the only way to get it is to first help his majesty's son go through his puberty ritual because he's too much of a wuss to go and do it on his own. Now we can get the mirror. But the mirror has lost it's power. So we then need to go to the west and see the magical sage who will be able to restore its power. But he can't and tells you to first go to the open water and find a certain shark that hits you with a light based attack and when it hits the mirror, then it will be recharged. Now you can blast through 'the darkness' and fight doulmagus. *phew*
BTW, every last VA with exception to Yangus is terrible. Almost as bad as Star Ocean 4.

Are there any other games that got this sort of treatment with the OST? I honestly can't imagine DQ8 without the orchestral music.
Considering it's the only thing that was good about the game.

This has probably already been said but I'll just post it anyway.

Am I the only one who finds this funny?

Yey!!! We get our second Christian song on the site! I love it! Introducing the second half as a rock song was a wonderful idea. But as ppl have said, it would have been great if we had some more of the lyrics in the later parts. Other than that, this is an instant favorite.

I haven't a clue what it's about. I've just heard of it again and again. That being said, the german subtext on Xenosaga episode 1 translates to "Beyond good and evil." According to my brother that took german. I took spanish. But now I wish I either took Greek, Japanese, or Hebrew.

Remixers, don't listen to this dude. He doesn't know what he's talking about.
Leak, leak, leak like a cheap tampon!

Thank you.
And most of them I played at least halfway through. I played FF3, FF6, FF7, FF8, and FF9 more than halfway through. And honestly I really loved 3 and 6, and thought 9 wasn't too bad -- I just never finished them.
Well what types of games have you finished?
-
i still haven't finished FFVII .. i've been at the OWA boss 3 times but everytime something has happened to either my playstation or the playstation i played on or my computer.
shame on ME
Reminds me of when I first played ff7. I got to safer sephiroth and discovered I wasn't powerful enough. I went out of north cave and leveled up for a bit. A month later, I was all set to go and beat the game when my friend took his game back. Then I deleted my save file on the memory card because I needed the space. I was too young at the time to buy it myself.

And I just beat Resistance 2 in a weekend.

There is some timing strategery involved, but yeah, the date will be July.
It's later than we were initially planning, so there will be a few special previews-
I was interviewed by Justin for the upcoming 8 bit radio show that airs on on May 4, and I gave him a few full tracks to play, including a sick bLiNd track, and there might be something or another coming around early June as well.
You mean when bLiNd was sick? Don't you think healthy people could make better music?

Who is that guy in place of Scar at 1:02?

After seeing a
, I got to wondering. Is anyone else curious about how chocobos are going to be used in ffxiii and ff vs xiii? -
I thought this was funny
-
Geez, I figured this out a long time ago. No Offence Wacky.

Woah. I just saw Otacon up there and I was like, when was he ever part of the list of mascots? Then I went to this thread and I saw that the project was done! I haven't clicked a single mascot yet, but believe me, I'm going to have some fun here. Thanks guys.
-
I've always heard that it was a Dec 1 release. But that brings up another question. Is it a worldwide release? or is that just the Japanese version and we'll have to wait another 6 months till the english?
-
Looks like it, then again I seem to be the few that actually enjoyed FFXII/Quest 64/Psychonauts and other titles that seemed bad but are not.
In the end the best judge on whether it's fun for you or not is yourself
.Edit: If it turns out just like "Eternal Sonata" where the 360 got the original version where as the PS3 got the enhanced with bonus stuff, including extending the game play for the same price, I'm gonna laugh real hard.
Considering all the extra things they can do with all that space on the blu ray, it might happen. At least there's something going for us sony fans.

Hey guys, just for the heck of it, I decided to pop in FFXII. I have 3 characters at lvl 75 and 3 characters at lvl 85. I decided to take on Bahamut just for fun. After a couple minutes, I got to the final boss. I buffed everybody with hastega, and put bravery on basch(zodiac spear). Then I switched to the tv. After less then a minute, the controler stopped rumbling. I switched back to the game thinking that my party leader must have died. Instead I found that I had beaten the game. Without touching the controller. I couldn't stop laughing.

Lol, I was thinking about making a thread like this. I'll be honest, I tried playing it, but it didn't work for me. Seriously, I'm at Shala and trying to defeat that boss that um... I don't even remember, but there were two of them and you faced them earlier. I put it down without even trying to level up and beat them. And it's been sitting downstairs half finished ever since. (about 8 months) Guess it was just before my time. My parents never got me a game console until the end of the ps1 era back in middle school. That's why pre-ps1 just doesn't interest me that much. Sure I've played ff1, ff2(never beat), ff4, ff6, (all ported) and though I think ff1 and ff4 were the best of the old days, they never got my too excited as the current games.
now that that's out of the way, everybody can kill me now.

Dude! That's amazing! I've been waiting for someone to give LoD some attention and this definately delivers.

At the very least, welch was kind of amusing, no matter how annoying she was.
