Watch it until episode 11 or 12, when you think things come to an "end". Then, not even kidding, skip straight to the last half of the last episode, and (ignoring the last few minutes) it will be a great ending.

Quina, really... As the series goes on, I find my distaste getting less. Sometimes I wish sleeves were a little longer or characters didn't have this one thing that made the design look weird, but for the most part, I don't mind. As said, everyone in Spira had wtf designs, but hey, consistency...

How bout that, just happened to start this show yesterday, am finishing it up now. I thought the first half was really good, but then it got really weird and made a lot of changes which kind of killed the tension. It would have been amazing- to me anyway- if they'd just kept the first half as...

If you don't know how to mix drinks and hold down a bar by age four, you don't have what it takes to live in Midgar. It controls him Huh I don't even remember these guards. Use it well. It's a pretty unwieldy weapon and it requires a lot of strength and skill. Tifa was probably just able to...

Honestly? Almost none. Or at least not enough to inspire me to buy the console. I love getting a lot of mileage out of my gaming rigs. I feel like PS3 was only just reaching that balance point of having a lot of old titles available while still coming out with stuff. The increased frequency of...

I went with #3 . Partially because the disintegration type of effect makes me think of Dead Space, as do the colors. Also really didn't like the text for #1 (which otherwise is pretty well made). But yeah, 3 is very nicely put together, well done.

I've developed a sort of phobia of hoping for a Versus XIII announcement. Even if they did, what could they say? It's still coming? Release date? Going to be on a new system? I'm not jaded, not even upset! Still a big FF fan, I just... zero expectations. Plus E3's pretty far away so hopefully...

So I've currently got a copy on my Mac, and it has a few tweaks. The tracks have been replaced by higher quality versions, the occasional remix. The cutscenes– where applicable– are hi-res and in the case of the opening, use footage from the tech demo. The battle and field sprites are still...

Well, I mean if you're going to buy a console specifically for a game, might want to make sure the game is, in fact, coming out. I'm sure there are people who thought the same about Versus XIII...

Just started reading Paprika, which was adapted to the Japanese film, and is basically the Japanese Inception...

I was always of the impression they spent that night together. In AC they seem to have a pretty important focus on having this little family. One of the focuses was on Cloud being a responsible adult, and Tifa clearly thought of them as some kind of family unit. Cloud's guilt in not bringing...

(Forgive the random title) Fantasy is such an iffy genre for me. I love the magic, the romance, the tall tales and the rich environments. I hate the medieval living styles, torches and horses and figures hooded and cloaked and sometimes I even hate that all I can conceivably bring to the table...

Themes are immensely important in every story, but if you consciously focus on theme while writing you'll detract from the point you want to tell. As for your idea, always remember it's not what you're writing, but how you write it. Nothing is "original" anymore, but people don't read it for...

No worries, I was worried that I should have clarified that I was grasping at straws a bit and being vague in my point. ^_^ There was a list of plot holes I saw on some other boards a while back (I believe it might have been GameFAQs) but a thorough knowledge of the game and a quick reminder...

Ah that statement was just an aside, a general for story telling. Better said: the audience (reader, viewer, gamer in this case) should not have to resort to expanded media to comprehend a single work. I'm agreeing with you and I don't think VII does this. In fact for most of my post (and...
