We’re doomed.

That was truly awful, but really, only time will allow Lightning to fade into obscurity. And even then, it’s hard to deny that she has a design and style that leaves an impression.

I think what I’ll miss most about Secret Wars are the spinoff titles with the absurdly awesome premises! There were too many to keep up with, so luckily they’ll keep me occupied for quite some time.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Square got into the fashion game. If there’s one thing they’re consistently good at, it’s attention-grabbing and recognizable character design with iconic looks.

Agreed! So freaking beautiful!

I love this trailer! So much though that I was disappointed this song wasn’t in the game... I wish movies/TV shows/games would stop featuring music in trailers that weren’t in the actual product.

Hot and Cold is definitely my favorite minigame in IX! I even leveled up Choco’s beak to 90+ in an attempt to get the flying chocobo to escape the continent when you’re captured by Kuja!

So satisfying, right?! I like to pretend that I’m not in Memoria to save the world, I’m just fighting legions of deadly monsters to collect trading cards!

But with 8, I could play twice as much!

Wow, these look beautiful! I'll take 8

Well, I wouldn’t say you get nothing out of it. The game served as an excellent medium for my collector’s itch! It’s just for me, but I always tried to get as many unique cards as I could!

There are a surprising number of low-level challenges that are possible with IX. Especially IX because of the unorthodox battle mechanics and ways it calculates some damage. Of course, doing a low-level speedrun to get the Excalibur II is pretty nuts in general, haha

Yeah, I suppose you’re right. It certainly makes every game tense!

You’re sort of correct on that.

Hopefully the backgrounds will be upped. Those stills are mighty beautiful!

Every random encounter is an opportunity to improve Zidane’s Thievery skill, so I for one will elect not to use this feature!

Is a Gizmondo something I should have heard of before?

Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind

Haha, yeah, I’m running on outdated hardware for sure... If money weren’t such an object, I’d be all over that.

I played the first game on my PC very recently and was planning on buying SC! Just worried that my old, old, old computer can handle this one too. Is it any more technically heavy than its predecessor? My PC experienced slowdown during certain segments of the first game, embarrassingly enough...
