    The FINAL Final Fantasy

    I think it should be the longest, most epic one, even if it means not being quite so cutting edge in the graphics department. It should tease with false endings, character deaths, returns, twists and turns. I do quite like the idea of a lot of homages and references to older FF games, but just...

    embarrassing names

    Lucky for me, she was the only one not named after a family member. Much like others in this thread, she was named after a girl I had a crush on at the time. I named Tifa after my sister in law... :oops:

    [V5] What are you currently listening to?

    On Mercury - Red Hot Chili Peppers This song has a lot of life to it, and makes you really feel good. RHCP aren't really one of my favourite bands by any means, but I have 4 of their albums simply because they make really good music.

    How old were you when you played your first Final Fantasy?

    I received a PSX for my 12th birthday in November 1999, and a friend of mind kindly lent me a couple of games to get going with. He included FFVII because FFVIII had just come out 3 weeks earlier. With me having a few other games to go at, I didn't give FFVII much attention, and then I was given...

    embarrassing names

    I named pretty much all my FFVII characters after family members first time round. I feel sorry for my brother Simon, who lent his name to Cait Sith, whilst my oldest brother Steve became Barret.

    How Many Times...

    My favourite game is FFVII. I've probably had anywhere between 12-15 separate savegames on it, but I have only finished it twice. I have clocked about 70 hours on the longest of these games, but never had a 100% game. That's not the longest of all FF games for me though. I had a 120 hour file...

    Which Final Fantasy Character Are You?

    I voted Cloud. I'm not as introverted as Squall, I'm not as outgoing as Zidane, I'm not as whiny as Tidus, and I'm not as annoying as Vaan. Cloud is fairly quiet, and moderately distant, but still knows right from wrong.

    PC Football Manager

    This thread is for the Football Manager series of games, and I guess the predecessor Championship Manager series. Discuss all things FM/CM in here! I first started playing this series with Championship Manager 01/02, and I mainly played at Leeds, who had an awesome, young squad in those days...

    final fantasy 8 is under rated

    I think FFVIII did a fantastic job of being a game entirely apart and unique from FFVII. I think the story has a complexity that no other FF game really has. It had a very cool feel to it, and the pacing of the game was very different to any other FF game to that point in time. I have an awful...

    What do you do?

    I try to be as thorough as possible, but I don't get cut up if I might have missed something. I used to be like that though; when I first got FFX-2, I had a checklist printed out for the full 100%, which completely killed the gameplay experience for me. If I am playing a game for the first time...

    South Africa 2010

    All 3-5-2s are like that are they? I've seen them as four across the middle and one behind the strikers too. Besides, I'd rather see Gerrard up front with Rooney. Last time he played off a world class striker at the top of his game, he dragged our overachieving arses to second in the table.

    South Africa 2010

    I said it years ago, as a solution to the England left midfield problem. Ashley Cole as more of a wing back type player would have been perfect. I don't know how well the players would adapt to playing in a 3-5-2 though, seeing as pretty much every single player in the team don't play it for...

    Hardest Boss in the Final Fantasy Series...

    Compulsory: Zeromus This battle was one hell of a marathon for me, and I was particularly well levelled too. I don't remember having this much trouble with any bosses on any game post FFVII. Optional: Nemesis Just, no. The amount of preparation you have to do for this boss is pretty much...

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    I posted this over 2 years ago, and I voted "not sure" originally. I find it interesting how my opinion has changed. Nowadays, I'm dead against a remake. I think it is a fantastic game, and it has bags and bags of charm, and if it were remade in any form, it would completely kill it. I don't...

    Serious Graduating... and anxiety

    I guess this is natural, Rydia. You will have a Masters degree, a whole lot of field experience and a few job offers, which is fantastic. You have clearly worked very very hard for a long long time, and now you are getting what you deserve, so congratulations. You are about to embark upon a...

    Why do people say that Yuna is spineless?

    I don't think "spineless" is the word I'd use to describe Yuna. She is strong willed and passionate about what she intended to do. She was adamant about what she wanted to do with Seymour, and was determined in her quest to finally bring peace to Spira. That said, I think people call her...

    Stealing

    I'm not sure I can condone stealing at all. The worst thing I have ever stolen is a little more than my fair share of paper from the resource centre at school. If someon has wronged me, that doesn't entitle me to steal from them, that just makes me as bad, if not worse than them. I don't...

    Your Country, what would you change?

    I just wish racist issues were resolved. I wish English people were more accepting towards racial minorities. I think a lot of people judge prematurely based purely on skin colour, when in actuality, it is only a very small minority of these minorities who are in any way problematic. Some people...

    South Africa 2010

    The England squad is looking a little different at the moment. Gareth Barry is likely to miss the first game at least, Hargreaves is rumoured to be the replacement. The Guardian's sports section was tipping Carragher for a grand return to the England squad. Rooney limped out of United's last...

    Longest FF Boss battle?

    If we're talking compulsory battles, the second Barthandelus fight from FFXIII took me quite a while. Without using shrouds, he can take a good half hour to eliminate, but providing you know what you're doing, 10-15 minutes is about enough. Zeromus from FFIV was a pretty long battle too. For me...
