SO. EPIC.

I actually got 20 or so new Game Boy games in the last week. And yet. I CAN NOT STOP PLAYING FINAL FANTASY TACTICS ADVANCE.

FFX is my all time fave. Though FFXII comes a close second.

i've really gone off FF games, i thought XII started good but was way too long, and the story was a total cheese fest, i thought the new fighting system is really great though.
has anyone played they FFIV sequel for the Wii?

I bought Modern Warfare 2. Gonna play it right now. I also got the XBL subscription and now trying to come up wiwth a name. I don't know if poolick will get banned.

EVOLghost, you heard about XBoxers getting banned for modded consoles RIGHT???

yeah. but I hear they don't get banned unless you don't play a copy while online.

I dont know specifics. I'm not an XBox fan to be straight up. BUT I wouldn't want you to get fucked over my friend.

You're right mang. I'm gonna look it up a little bit more. I still haven't activated my account.

play it safe, sir. I heard some (seriously) innocent owners got caught up in the MS crossfire. So be knowledgeable.

Hahaha yeah I've heard of that too. people gettin' banned for no reason.

and apparently MS doesnt give a fuck. Surprise, surprise.

has anyone played call of duty for the wii? i want to buy it but am put off because i imagine with the wii mote it would be hard to aim and the controls would be bad. is this the case? is it worth buying a gun for the wii and if so which one?

I used the wiizapper or somethin' like that once. It was alright. But too be honest...I really can't see CoD for the wii would be very much fun. But just my opinion.

Yeah so apparently I think Microsoft might be runnin' some stupid scan where it can detect if yer shiz is modded. Though I gotta look into it more.

just finished the campaign. It was kinda short, but sweet.

Final Fantasy 12 is probably the worst RPG I've ever played. And I've played a lot. I'm going to go so far as to say it's one of the worst games I've ever played, period. Never one time in the entire game did I feel involved with the story, the characters, or the gameplay. The simplified, dumbed-down offline-MMO battles seemed exciting at first, but then you realize that every battle is exactly the same, especially the boss battles (just cast all your limit breaks, switch out a character, cast all your limit breaks, switch out a character, cast all your limit breaks, switch out one more character, cast out all your limit breaks.. if the boss isn't dead, he's about to be). I mean, you could make the argment that every rpg battle is the same, but when you look at the fact that it takes forever to level up and get license points, (is it even possible to get over level 65 in this game without devoting hundreds of hours?).. yeah. Offline MMO, yeah. The only part that is intriguing is the license board, except when you realize that, again, it's really not as customizable or cool as you thought, and you eventually will just spend license points on useless bullshit in order to get the cool spells. The game is also way, way too easy, the dungeons are boring as hell, and the story.. oh my god, the story is TERRIBLE... I mean, it's pretty bad when you only have 6 party members and a few of the party members don't even interact with each other. Add in a superboring political plot that goes absolutely nowhere, and you have a game that feels completely broken and rushed and just.. off. It's like, there's no context to place anything in, you're just constantly going from A to B in this linear, boring progression and the side quests basically amount to trying to level up to try to kill monsters to get equipment that you don't need because the game is easy enough as it is. The graphics are good, but the entire game looks kinda like the Phantom Menace or something. Honestly, playing the game gave me a headache, and I'm not sure why, something about the gameplay and the saturated graphics just fucked with me. Absolutely the most boring, worthless, shit Final Fantasy, with nothing compelling happening in it whatsoever. Add in horrible characters, awful voice acting, and the game is just kinda worthless.

Seriously, does Penelo even have a single line of dialogue after the first 2 hours of the game? Just curious.

I'm glad you like it, though, man! Glad you got something out of it.

You're clearly in a minority with your criticism of FFXII. It has a metascore of 92. RPGFan called it "a complete masterpiece".

FFXII was highly over rated. It was a fairly decent game but like all Final Fantasies, the flaws and little 'kwirks' to the game were too blunt and obnoxious for me to ignore them.

Adam, I'm seriously thinking about playing through to see if Penelo does have any other dialogue after that.

Of course she does. Stop being obnoxiously puerile about it.
