Can anybody tell me what this computer game Final Fantasy is all about? I have to interview a boy tomorrow who named his music project after the game, and writes songs about it and stuff, and even though I like computer games as you all know these are limited to precisely three games on the Nintendo Gaycube. Can anyone explain what FF is about? I mean I could Google it obviously but it's more fun if you tell me, right?

Numer 12 just came out in Japan to get a perfect 10 score in Famitsu. Number 7 is generally regarded as the best of the series, and one of the greatest games of all time. This may have changed now after XII.
They rely on a quiet, moody young man protagnoist leading a constantly growing team to save the planet (not earth), employing magic and weaponary. They're epic scale RPG games, requiring a fair amount playing time, and are well known for their artwork and sweeping scores, some of which are reguarly performed by classical orchestras. The plots usually test loyalty, love, and strength, and evolve the main character from a selfish and introverted to selfless and sensitive. Lots of melodrama, usually a tragic death of a loved character, maybe some re-birth, mystical/religious references.
Second only to Dragon Quest in Japan in terms of sales and popularity. Also: Cosplay people dig it.

It's about the most boring turned based RPG series ever conceived and one of them (I think it may be VII) was the most returned game ever.
I can't tell you much more because it was so boring I returned it.

the thing is, I was a student and was stoned the whole time, and wracking up 70 hours on one game wasn't too much of a chore. Although, I still play RPG games. Recently went through chrono trigger again, and got right to the end of Paper Mario (37 hours). Anyway, Anne-Marie, how can you diss RPGs, when your top two games are Harvest Moon and Animal Crossing?

I couldn't get into harvest moon at all. That really was boring.

I use to watch over Ubers shoulder occasionally and actually get bored just looking at Harvest Moon when Uber was playing it. I'm sorry. I was bottling that up and I'm afraid ....that it just LOOKED DULL. There. I said it and it's a weight off my mind.

I'm probably going to pick up a ps2 and some final fantasy games. If I could get the slimline console for £50, I'd go for it. I haven't played any since FF 9, which was the last one on the ps1.
I finally got my DS and animal crossing. It's addictive.

Whoops, sorry "Steve" - didn't know we were still trying to keep our online and 'RL' personae separate here in 2006! I won't make that mistake again, Dr.
I will make the mistake of confusing an RPG with a 'first-person shoot-em-up' though. Haha I'm a retard. Incredible that I've just been paid £££££100s of genuine cash-flavoured money for that essay on computer games really.
Harvest Moon WAS boring boring boring boring fucking boring dull as shit. It lacked whatever it was - ability to design clothes with cocks on, ability to teach animals words like 'pisslicker', ability to get crushes on wierd animals (i totally fancied Static!) - that Animal Crossing had. But I kept playing and playing and playing and playing right up until I had loads of cows and a cheesemaker and everything because I HAD TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED. And what happened was this:
0
nothing
nothing

zilch
fuckall.

my mum likes the final fantasy series, she completed 7 a number of times.
A film based on it has recently been released, I wonder if it's going to be any good. And it invented the mog people things, that are very cute, but basically moomin.
I quite wanted to be cloud in final fantasy 7, and often spent minutes wondering how I could effect this transformation. Unfortunately cosplayers have taken this day dream too far and made it a cruel reality.

yo damn bitchin shes correct!
she's having a hard time with both lucifers call and star ocean at the moment, she enjoyed fahrenheit too much though.
here are some hcoice final fantasy quotes i take with me on my phone and look at when im in need of life coaching:
First, this piece of comedy frin Final Fantasy 9, which sadly I got bored of.
quistis: I'm not asking you to talk, I'm asking you to listen!
Squall: Then go talk to a wall
This scene is great because quistis is his teacher, and there's a kind of erotic charge between them and I got a bit of a nob twinge thinking about having sex with teachers. He's so offhand with her and she just laps it up.
And this one, a sager thing never really said:
Barret: People get depressed in life because they don't know what's up
Strong environmental messagei n final fantasy, so it's lovely.
I have to disagree on metal arms benway, though I played the ps 2 version which may have had an effect. Was just quite repetitive, with crap textures / level design, and I didn't get into the stylings. and it reminded me of godamn jetforce gemini.
I have played animal crossing once in two weeks so far, i was mortified at receiving a mortgage and job on my first day.
but planting trees WAS SO FUCKING EXCITING I NEARLY DIED.
mario kart is pretty wicked, but they've chosen some whack tracks from the past games, moo moo farm ffs? that shitty one from the gc thats just an oval, i mean godamn this isnt fucking NASCAR.
Posted by Dr. Benway (Member # 20) on :
I don't play mk any more really, because motherfuckers online always do that snaking shit, where they power slide even when they're going str8. So you've got no chance unless you do it too. And I can't do it.
I'm disappointed that you don't dig metal arms. Maybe the GC version is superior to Ps2 (which is often the case) in terms of the look of it, and as you play the game, there are so many little touches and changes to the playing style, like the ability to control vehicles, other robots and the ability to have 'pet' zomboids, that it's like a different game every level. Bah.

it's almost EXACTLY THE SAME, but that's okay, because you play it differently. I play it for maybe half an hour a day, on the tube, so it doesn't feel like I'm wasting time. But it's pretty much the same deal. Pay your mortgage, get aq bigger house, decorate it, catch fish + insects, and dig fossils. But the wifi thing is cool because when you connect it'll download content. So you can buy patterns from other towns that have been designed by other people, or you get constellations appearing that have been designed by somebody else, or an animal turns up from a different town and starts showing you letters from a real person who is playing it somewhere in the world. You can visit other towns, you can have guests etc. The connectivity makes it soooooo much better.
I've got it on me today if you want a look later on.

It is exotic! My sisters are called Lisa and Michelle, the most rubbish names alive! I have a hyphen and everything! Honestly, what did you expect - Drusilla? Candida?
