  1. Final Fantasy

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    FF3/VI is my favourite game and the first RPG I remember playing. I was ten at the time, and was so used to playing platform games and the like, first time I played it I didn't fully understand what was going on. A few months later I gave it another chance... and I was hooked. I used to rent SNES games pretty much every weekend, and eight times out of ten, I rented FF3. To this day, I never get tired of playing it. It was just so different from every other game I had played up to that point. The first game I played that had any real depth to the characters, with a story that I could get truly involved with. FFVI completely changed my perspective on video games.

    I own most of the Final Fantasy games on PS1 and FFX, the big exception being FF Chronicles, and I enjoy them all. FFII from Origins I can take or leave, however. I don't care for the experience system. But for having that and the original Final Fantasy remake on one disc is money I'm glad to have spent.

  2. Anime Versus Tournament

    Being a sucker for any sort of tournament, I'm very interested in this idea. I'm pretty busy most of the time but I'd like to help out any way I can.

    Should be fun. At least it'll give me a reason to dust off all my Shonen Jump comics.

  8. Six Degrees of Separation

    The 48 hours are almost up, so here's the answer.

    Nimrod to Dracula (Dracula defeated him to become ruler of Earth's vampires)

    Dracula to Dr. Strange (killed him with the Montesi formula)

    Dr. Strange to Nimrod II (inadvertantly helped send him back in time.)

    Someone else can add a new one.

  9. Batman vs Wolverine

    in Versus Archives

    Posted

    It happened in Wolverine #126 (I know because I have the issue after it.  :( ) By the next issue, Logan singlehandedly defeats most of both Hydra and The Hand.

    Was this while Wolverine had his exoskeleton ripped out? Could Batman break adamantium? Wolverine would be the victor. Batman would only have a chance if Wolverine didn't have the adamantium.

    No, he didn't have the adamantium. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the adamantium covers the front of Logan's neck. Batman could easily jab him in the windpipe with a knife.

  11. Saint of Killers v Wolverine

    in Versus Archives

    Posted

    After staying up all night reading about Preacher, I can say without much doubt The Saint of Killers would win, for several reasons.

    -He's already dead

    -Because he's dead, he's completely invulnerable (ie. the ground zero incident)

    -His guns never miss, never empty, and will kill anyone he shoots. Even God Himself. Unless Wolverine can sneak up on him, knock his guns away and dismember him in under five seconds, he hasn't much hope.

  17. Favorite PS 2 game

    Here Comes the Pain for me. When I go to my friend's house I enjoy an all night playing binge thanks to this game. It's more about the playing experience than the game itself in this instance.

  22. How much emphasis do you put on graphics?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Graphics in games are important, to a small extent. I play mostly RPGs, where aesthetics won't really make or break the game. In this case the graphics don't need to be exceptional, merely good enough to see what's going on.

    A sports or action-style game , on the other hand, requires good graphics. You need to be able to clearly see the ball or something moving around down the hall. It really depends on the type of game.
