It's funny, over the years I've seen at least as many people doing the same thing in the opposite direction. I'll always prefer 6, but I can't understand the animosity.

That was Celes. Time to play through it again. :)

I definitely feel like the general zeitgeist regarding Woosley and FF6 has had its ups and downs. When the game was first released, I think most folks thought it was just fine, and then as the internet exposed other viewpoints, there was a really strong backlash against him for quite a long time. It seems to me that…

That is definitely one of the things I prefer in FF4 over FF6, as well. I think FF6 is still a better game overall, but that part of FF4 does appeal to me a great deal.

It was released on the Wii VC a long time ago. Not sure what's keeping it from the other systems.

And 2 was 4! Or vice versa. :)

Yep, I was 14 when it came out and it's one of the few games I ever preordered. I couldn't even get to the mall from the farmland where I lived until the second day it was out, and I was fiending for it even with the $80 price tag.

But there WAS the official Nintendo Power strategy guide. I finished the game the first time without it and I think found most everything, and then immediately played it again when I got the guide for Christmas that year.

I missed Distant Worlds when it came near me last year, which made me quite sad. If it comes back through when my daughter is old enough to sit through it, though, I'm in.

OK, to be slightly LESS lazy because I don't actually expect someone to listen to some random dude's podcast, Final Fantasy VI gave me my career. I am not a game developer, though I work in the casual game industry; however, when I did start toying around with web development, a Final Fantasy VI fansite was the first…

In the interests of being both too lazy to write a full post AND self-promoting, here's a podcast I did for my site last year specifically about why Final Fantasy VI is awesome: http://www.cavesofnarshe.com/news/article/f…

Yeah, most every national team does every year now. Getting almost as bad at the club level too.

I remember playing Baseball on my GB as a ten year old and finding "FUKU" on one of the Japanese teams to be the best player name ever.

Sporting fan, Liverpool fan AND articulate argument? If I still lived in KC, I'd buy you a beer at the home opener.

Perhaps they can make the whole assembly rigid, too!

I like them as a polo shirt, but not as a jersey. I'll be wearing my Centennial kit to any watch parties this summer, I suspect.

Yeah, Joey Barton thinks this whole mess is overblown. :)

Perhaps it's due for an update!
