I don't think it was a case of the characters lacking development, but rather that FFXII was a tad more serious and in depth in subtle ways in terms of its storyline. I can honestly say that the game was almost perfect in my eyes - it is exactly what I want out of an RPG. Naturally there is...

and fate in FFVII and FFXII respectively. The former I simply did not see coming, after growing fond of her during the course of the game. As for , I honestly expected him to be redeemed and join the party during the last stretch of the game. He is definitely one of my favourite FF characters...

I never really saw the point in the infamous console war. I've been less than impressed with the quality of RPG's upon the Xbox360 and PS3, and often find myself replaying RPG's from the PSone and PS2 era far more than I play anything on the recent consoles. I really miss the days of buying a...

I have a friend who is too scared to play horror games herself, but loves the genre and watches me play through them. It's fun rather than annoying, especially when something jumps out of nowhere and causes her to jump behind me for protection. Other than that, mother and sister are the worst...

It must have been a pretty terrifying experience. I wonder if their car insurance covers a situation like that? It'd certainly be an awkward claim to make.

I was pretty satisfied with the game, but I'd have loved to have seen more 'secret' locations/dungeons around Spira. A few more dungeons with bosses along the level of difficulty as the bonus bosses wouldn't go amiss. I would also have liked to have seen more scenes with Seymour, for I consider...

Few games are as brutal as Forbidden Siren in terms of the difficulty of escort missions. As a general rule of thumb, the slightest mistake is often punished with death - enemies can kill both you and the companion you're escorting in one or if you're lucky, two hits.

I'd have to say no. I'm not really a fan of anime and I've not really liked the fact they often seem to sacrifice plot and depth for the sake of over the top action. I enjoyed FFVIII, but I'd prefer not to see another FF classic butchered for the sake of milking more cash for the company.

Hrm. The more I hear about this game, the more my excitement slips away. To me, I don't care if half the skills are incredibly situational - I love having the choice to build an immersive character within an immersive world. Furthermore, are we limited to only playing as a Nord in this game or...

To expand upon my earlier point, I feel that there is a very fine line between censoring something because it is controversial outright, and censoring something because a very small minority find it controversial. By the latter, I'm not talking about racial minorities, but rather the type of...

Maybe I'm just weird, but I've never been put off food that I genuinely like even when other people are deliberately trying to make me squirm. I'd probably go to a restaurant like this for the sheer thrill factor, since I just love unusual things and like a bit of excitement now and then. It...

I still remember my mother singing 'Baa Baa Black Sheep' to me back when I was a young child. Why should I abandon one of my childhood memories for the sake of political correctness? I'm getting really fed up of seeing people having to watch their words with even seemingly innocent statements...

I've never encountered the problem, luckily. Though I don't play my Xbox360 nearly as much as I do my PC and PS3. Knowing my luck fate will go out of its way to prove me wrong the next time I try. :P

I daresay the company has sacrificed quality for quantity for a fair few years now. I lost my faith in the series back when I first heard about the Kingdom Hearts thing. I mean, really...Disney characters fighting against Sephiroth? A lot of fans have lapped it up, but I found the concept...

This may come across as a stupid question, but how could he spend three days straight in an internet cafe? I've never been to one myself, but surely they close for at least a few hours each night?

I pretty much just use Lynx Africa or Lynx Chocolate as my deodorant of choice. I don't bother with anything expensive unless it's a gift for my birthday or something.

It's pretty sad to hear about people dying as a result of their obsession. I just hope the news isn't lapped up by certain organisations that seem desperate to class games as being the spawn of the devil. At the end of the day though, it's obvious that this is more to do with the mental state...

It's a term I prefer not to use in itself, but I would consider someone to be a 'whore' if they willingly slept with someone who was already in a relationship at the time. This would, however, apply to both of the individuals in that situation - for whilst flirting and seducing is bad in itself...

Thanks! Yeah, this is the major factor that appeals to me with this game. I kind of grew out of the mindless zombie slaughter phase a few years ago, so a game with depth in both gameplay and story would not go amiss.

I'd definitely be interested in some discussion regarding such things, but preferably across a number of different threads. I can foresee it being a tad awkward to have one huge thread touching on a variety of semi-related topics.
