Ha ha- Gauntlet Tactics!!
Ha ha- Gauntlet Tactics!!
Hmmmmmm.... well, I liked the original best- the SNES version played perfectly. I'll put it like this:
I stated my preference. When you make a public spectacle of yourself, you invite people to give their opinions. This is a public forum- a place for opinions. Kotaku put this article up here to get people with opinions to comment, so they can get their hit count up and get that sweet, sweet sponsor cashish. After…
DO IT!!!! I can play FFIV, FFVI, FFVII, FFTactics, or FFIX any day of any week, as well as Chrono Trigger. FFVIII...... not so much. I won't say I hated it, but it really doesn't flow as well as the others, and I found the characters and story to be laughable as it took itself way too seriously, and was the first…
I can't wait until Japanese girls start to look Japanese again. Enough of the shitty plastic surgery, makeup bonanza, eyelid slicing and hair dying. I used to think Japanese girls were often so naturally pretty, and now they all just look like skanky white raver girls from (insert California EDM "music festival"…
Nope- I actually don't do much online- pretty much just facebook, IGN, Kotaku, and other random news and entertainment sites. I'll give it a whirl tomorrow after work. Problem is, I really don't use consoles much anymore, and right now I'm really only playing 3DS, with a modded PSP supplementing my classic needs…
Ha ha ha- I'm sure. It doesn't really matter to me anyway. None of my local friends were any form of gamers growing up, so besides the N64, I enjoyed most games alone without any arguments about which were best. I'll be playing this again in a few weeks, after I get my Vita. Maybe I'll even do the chocograph…
R.I.P., SQUEENIX!!! Quit coming back as this zombiefied, fetid version of your former self! SLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP............
It was a very deliberate nod at their entire history of games, and there was a ton of tongue-in-cheek fan service going on. I didn't mind the western feel, because it was illustrated so rich in detail, and had a very unique flair for a "princess and castle" endeavor. I think FFVII did the whole new style well, but…
What about Mystic Quest??........... oh, wait- it was never loved years later, ha ha. Nostalgia value, and nothing more. Decent music, however.
The music gets me pumped to this very day. I'm still playing the original AND the PSP version. To this day, I wonder what the programmers were thinking by randomly throwing your 5 person party against 2 red chocobos, 3 black ones, and a few yellow ones..... and letting them move first, assuring that half of your…
I know this, but it didn't seem to enjoy the same length of fame as FFVII did, nor was the impact as broad. It was certainly appreciated, but I always felt it deserved much more than it got.
Ha ha- awesome. I used to print EVERYTHING back then. I had a decorative wall of screen caps and articles of upcoming games, and I used to print out reviews and such to read at work. I wish I kept more of it organized.
Yeah, Legend of Mana was a beast, and people rarely recognize it as so because it wasn't open world like Secret of Mana was. The art was amazing, the music was more befitting of the visuals and setting than any other game I've ever played, and the way you unfolded the world had something incredible to it. Even the…
Such an underappreciated game. Partly because Final Fantasy VII was so fresh, and partly because people were bored of the current hardware and game types- but the game was a masterpiece of setting, colorful and relatable characters, and the (at the time) art of masterful localization. The only reason why I don't…
Can I ask why people even still buy used games from Gamestop and the like? I can buy a 60 dollar game from them, open it right there, and they'll offer me 13 bucks to take it back. I can then shred the booklet, eat the case, piss on the disc and get the same lowball price. They will then put it in an ugly generic…
And your last statement is the scariest part. Consoles (with the exception of Nintendo's, which are failures in most ways anyway) are becoming monofaceted in that respect, because the target consumer is narrowing down to those types of gamer by grand majority. It's the equivalent of the entire automobile market…
The grandeur of the great gaming console has been dead to me for ages already. I grew up a Nintendo kid (I'm 33), although my first system was the Atari 800. Through the years, I've seen evolution that was needed in order to necessitate a form of entertainment that had a sort of general goal in mind- challenging and…
Simple answer: The game was developed primarily for PS3, then they port the data to WiiU as best as they can. I'm not denying that the WiiU is likely inferior to the PS3 (although I personally could care less what a minor touch of jaggies does to a game), but I've witnessed this a million times. Go play the PS2…
Same here- I have a Salamence which has killed more Elite Four members than even my Mewtwo has. I'm hoping I can get my crack teams from White and Black 2 (most of which are from as far back as my first Sapphire cart, all the way to the current gen) into my X or Y cart at some point, but I doubt it'll be easy, or…
