No offense taken, especially since I got my start with RPGs (like about half of my friends, some of which share both both your and my preferences, with IX being the polarizing chapter) on the SNES by taking a chance on what I thought to be a random, odd little game called Secret of Mana before I even saw VI (or III…

That seems to be the general consensus with IX fans, oddly. I really enjoyed XII and felt that while VIII didn't have a story that I responded to personally, the game itself was fun. VII is obviously the best and my personal favourite but I've never liked nor could I get into IX and I've found that to be very…

Also not found at Target this year:

This thread deserves a better class of troll.

They're spending time doing something they enjoy around ppl they like-I'd say they're following the spirit of things to the letter. "Celebrating the holidays" is a highly subjective and forced social convention so it's also possible they simply may not be interested, like most ppl I know.

Really? I'm not the biggest X fan either but I don't know if I'd go that far...academic question: what are your feelings on IX?

That might come back to the part where they wanted to 'showcase' the games a little, also the reason they're showing all text and cutscenes?

Dirge was pretty good, and you missed out on CC, however if PSP is an issue...

I can't say I've ever seen a speedrun of FF7/8 (I'm sure they're around, just never thought it was a good plan to watch someone else for that long lol), but I was surprised to see the hate for 8 and 12 on their lists.

Wow, I thought I felt old after just reading the headline.

Or, play a friend's PS3 copy and enjoy it, hear it's coming to PC and happily wait a little longer while playing Watch Dogs (better than ppl seemed to give credit for, btw) and a few other pile of shamers, looking forward to kb+mouse controls and ultra settings.

If you have a rig hat can run it at max, then the choice is easy-if you were impressed with the PS3-PS4 comparison, imagine how good it will look on PC when you feed it all the resources it could possibly want-and that's BEFORE the modders get started with texture packs etc.

The funky beam is usually a sign of iffy construction, but the hilt blade housings could be cortosis weave.

Nobody likes bleach. They say they do, but nobody's ever actually bothered to sit through all of it. It could even be good, it's just that nobody really knows for sure.

Well they're professing the superiority of their choice of platforms, rather than of their own personal superiority so your comment of actually hating them is weird and built out of the same ignorance you profess to be railing against, but more worryingly, what sort of crowd did you expect at the WORLD'S BIGGEST LAN?
