    Chocobo Mystery Dungeon: Every Buddy! Physical PS4/Switch Releases

    What additional content does this version have over the original Wii release? Is it really worth the price if you've already got it for Wii? I mean, I kind of want it just because the game card format is more future-proof, but I don't know if I want it at $40. (Which is probably where it will...

    DLC for Advent Children Voice Actors in the Remake?

    I just wish they'd give Christy Carlson Romano over to a role that reflects her hotness in real life. Like, maybe Ifalna or Lucrecia. But not Yuffie, a.k.a. THE most annoying playable character.

    Nintendo Pokemon Sword And Pokemon Shield

    I have to say, I like the designs I've been seeing more than the last few gens, even if I ultimately think that the series isn't aging into 3D well enough for me to seriously want Sword and Shield. What I really want is a Pokémon sRPG, where you have to choose where to deploy six Pokémon at...

    Final Fantasy Heaven

    I'm very jealous. Not just of your Final Fantasy collection, but of your Japanese collector's edition of Fire Emblem Fates.

    Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker

    A lot of us feel that was where George went astray. I never minded the commercialism per se, but it became evident with the Prequels that Georgie was more interested in using the story as a big advertisement for the toys. Most of it is the Star Wars equivalent of FOX News and CNN, yes, but don't...

    FFVII Remake: Pre-ordering or waiting? Which Edition?!

    I'm going to wait until a couple years after the release and only get it then if it goes on sale and the reviews are favorable. I believed too much of Square for XIII and got burned. (Fool me once, shame on you.) I believed too much of Square for XV and was mostly disappointed. (Fool me twice...

    TGS 2019 - Final Fantasy VII Trailer Shows off Turks, Don Corneo, Summons

    Honestly, what's up with Square and bullet-sponge enemies in their last few games? It takes Eurogamer ages to kill the scorpion guard, whereas in the original you could end the fight in a handful of rounds. I admit, I'm liking the enemy redesigns (or rather, lack thereof) more than I expected...

    Final Fantasy VIII Remastered - Let's Talk About It!

    No, I'm catastrophizing, and there's a difference. I really don't know why this is so important to you or why you choose to characterize me as demanding anything from anybody, much less you. I'm simply saying, "Here's what I want. I will find a way to get it. It's up to Square-Enix whether they...

    Final Fantasy VIII Remastered - Let's Talk About It!

    Legally, you're within your rights to do lots of things. Doesn't mean someone who can take the financial hit can't sue you for it so they can make an example. And how many sites host Nintendo titles in addition to Square and Square-Enix ones? They wouldn't have to mount a direct attack...

    Final Fantasy VIII Remastered - Let's Talk About It!

    That isn't how Nintendo sees it. (Although, let's be honest: how delusional do you have to be to excuse your own lack of game preservation by claiming that the new games with the old characters should be good enough for people?) And granted, we're not dealing with Nintendo in the case of the...

    Final Fantasy VIII Remastered - Let's Talk About It!

    But... that's the thing. To play the original is only going to get harder with time. Yes, they re-release it on new hardware, but accessing that for re-download or transferring to my PSP and my Vita requires connecting to the PSN. There won't always be the financial incentives to maintain those...

    Final Fantasy VIII Remastered - Let's Talk About It!

    I saw some footage on DreamcastGuy's YouTube channel, but the points he raises do concern me: I like the upgraded character models, but if they didn't want to boost the backgrounds too, they should have left it all pixelated and just upped the resolution. I absolutely abhor trainers in these...

    What is the most unusual song on your iPod / music devices?

    I don't actually like death metal. But when you juxtapose it with Japanese kawaii, it somehow works for me.

    Greek letters at the Gold Saucer

    Yeah, I really can't speculate, myself. For me, Final Fantasy VII's story was done at the end of the first game. I watched Advent Children, but I never liked it, and I haven't played Dirge of Cerberus or Crisis Core or Before Crisis or any of that stuff. So there's a metric crap-ton of lore that...

    Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker

    Technically, the mainstream pro-EU position is that everything up until 2014 is canon. Mainstream proponents argue this because later EU contributions retconned the contradictions, and this allows mainstream EU proponents to counter the argument that the old EU was just as bad as the new stuff...

    Greek letters at the Gold Saucer

    Like Hindu kalpas combined with an Mayan calendar. Every 4.32 billion years the world is reborn, but the calendar stops in 2012 and no one is sure why.

    Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker

    Yeah... You don't want to know what I think. Here's the thing: I was an adolescent of the 90's. I transitioned from boy to man (though some would say just a bigger child) with the Expanded Universe and the GOUT (George's Original, Unedited Trilogy) VHS tapes as my moral guides. When I rifled...

    The 'Mana' Series Thread

    I've played it, but I wasn't impressed. The graphics are slapdash, and the hit boxes for you and the enemies is waaaaaay off. It's not the common consensus, but I much prefer Sword of Mana on the GBA, which was more than just a remaster, but a complete remake. People usually ding it because, at...

    Greek letters at the Gold Saucer

    But if the Cetra did that, then how did they know when the [α]-Era began? They would have to in order to reason that they were in the [λ]-Era. That implies that the [α]-Era's start coincides with their creation myth or the founding of their first major civilization. I think a third possibility...

    [V6] What are you currently listening to?

    Coming through some bipolar depression right now. I always default to Evanescence.
