Hi, my name is MacalaniaMan.

HOORAY! I've now turned 1100 years old!! XD
I live in the Zero World; just to the left of Bevelle and 30 miles away from Gongaga.

When I'm not basking in the praise of millions of people (after saving the world from the Cloud of Darkness or owning Zeromus on the moon), I like to unwind.
My hobbies include playing chocobo hot+cold and flying around various worlds in the Ragnarok; dropping ketchup bombs on the unsuspecting public.

XD

CAN YOU TELL I LOVE FINAL FANTASY? JUST CHECK OUT MY GALLERY! THE PROOF IS THERE!!!!

I thank you in advance for taking the time to look at my pics. While your leaving, help yourself to some treats from the complimentary plate of marshmallows.

We hope you enjoy your stay!

BTW, why not try and take a holiday at the luxurious Costa Del Sol? NO monster attacks; GUARANTEED! Well, maybe not until after your 3rd or 4th visit. But who knows! You might even be able to buy Rufus Shinra's Holiday home (if you're rich enough!).

SweetxinsanityxSarahI am glad you like my pictures. I too am a FF fan, but mostly a FF7 nut. :3

You should take a gander at some of my Vincent pics and my Sephiroth sketches, they are much better than the pic you faved xP

killerrabbit05ALRIGHT, so favorite moments (just a few of MANY, of which I am straining to remember because I haven't played in SO long):

1. From FF7: Who DIDN'T love Cloud cross-dressing? XD That was some funny stuff! And there's always Cid telling Shera to DRINK HER GODDAMN TEA!!! Oh, and Tifa and Scarlet's Slap fest in Junon... That made me laugh as well! Mostly funny stuff from 7...

2. From Dirge of Cerberus: The Assault on Midgar: That scene was pretty action-packed and epic! And the last chapter before you go up against Omega and you're Chaos, that was so awesome!

3. From FF8: When Squall and Rinoa are drifting in space and once they find the Ragnarok... Such a cute scene! I also thought their memories from the orphanage were neat to see.

4. From FFX: When Yuna does the sending in Kilika. Such a gorgeous scene.

5. From FFX-2: I LOVE the sequence when Yuna holds her concert in the Thunder Plains, I love the song (1000 Words) so much! And then there's this part that's sorta optional in the last chapter if you've slept once every chapter in the airship, where Brother's talking to the Barkeep(the Hypello) about Yuna, and Barkeep says, "She Hash nice backshide, yesh?" That made me giggle SO much!

6. From FFXII: Running around Bhujerba declaring yourself (Vaan) to be Captain Basch Fon Ronsenburg, and Vaan asking Fran in Eruyt Village about how old she is...

And then there's always the endings of the games. Gotta love those. ;)

MacalaniaMan on February 23, 2010, 5:50:16 PM

MacalaniaManOMG - you've picked some OSSUM moments!!

I almost forgot about Cloud's Cross Dressing in FF7. When I did that part in the game, I thought it was brilliant! And Tifa and Scarlet's slap fest (what are the odds that was put in for all the Male fans out there?). I also remember the part in Icicle Inn; where Elena literally ROLLS out of town. The animation of that scene was simply comical! LOL
Then there's also the movie where Cloud himself hands Sephiroth the Black Materia - and all hell breaks loose!

Dirge of Cerberus has some great moments, too; like the ones you mentioned. I also like the flashback movies that involve Vincent, Lucretia and Hojo - all of them; especially when Vincent wakes up from liying on the table and finds he has a monsterous hand - belting out an awesome yell! There's also all the general parts where Vincent temporarily loses control and briefly turns into Chaos - like on Cid's airship. XD

But OMG about that FFX-2 part. I remember you had to try and sleep at least once in every chapter, but the first time I played that game I missed out on that chance to see Brother and Barkeep's conversation. That sounds like a funny scene to see!

But I agree. All the endings are OSSUM moments.
I love love LOVE the FF8 ending; it's so nice and brilliant animation for it too. Not to mention the music - I love the music from the ending!
FFX-2 has a great ending, too. I unlocked the normal ending - where YRP are riding on the outside of the ship; Yuna shouts "Higher!" and Brother replies "ROGIRRRRRRRRR!".

I could go on about all the other endings I've seen, btu I'm going to pay it safe and say I LOVE THEM ALL!
X3

killerrabbit05 on February 24, 2010, 6:45:30 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05I will admit, the slap-fest was probably directed to male fans, but I still found it sorta funny!
I don't remember that part from Icicle Inn... :/ Baah, but it HAS been, like, 3-4 years since I've played that game. 0_o

I gotta admit, the gameplay in Dirge of Cerberus was sorta random and short, but I kinda loved the story. It was interesting and there were so many awesome scenes in it! I agree, it was cool to see the flashbacks and stuff.

Haha, the FFX-2 scene WAS hilarious! If you can, try to get it! And everyone loves the good+ ending... 8)

All the endings are pretty awesome, I love 'em! They also make me feel super obsessive for some reason... Maybe because I was sad it's over? I dunno... I WILL admit a few of them actually made me want to cry... Silly me. ;)

MacalaniaMan on February 24, 2010, 7:59:28 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManI completely understand your feelings towards the endings.
Most of the time after I complete a FF game, for a while I can be like "Oh, that was awesome!" or "What a brilliant game!" or even "I have to get the soundtrack for that!". LOL
And I understand the sadness towards the endings.
For me, the sadness comes from the fact that I've just spent (on average) 50-60 hours working on a game - and watching the characters grow up/develop to save the world and then - it's over! It's like; you put so much hard work and effort into it, that you don't want it to end when it does!
Simply put - it is sad to see a great adventure come to an end.
Though I must admit, most of the time the endings just fill me with pride and happiness - because it's like "I can't believe I finally finished it! Congrats on saving the world.".
None of the endings have brought me to tears; I think the only one that HONESTLY made me feel like wanting to cry was the ending to Crisis Core FF7. Obviously it was sad that the game was over, but it was also a REALLY SAD what happened in the ending! (I won't spoil it for you, but just brace yourself when you come to it!).


Hey! What do you think about this as an emoticon for Squall?

killerrabbit05 on February 25, 2010, 6:49:31 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05LOL the endings definitely make me feel both ways... Super proud that I was able to accomplish so much in the game and see such an awesome story play through, and sadness at the fact that all good things must come to an end.
Oh man, the ending to FF10 and the extra one to FF10-2... those were tear-jerkers... FF8 made me come close, 'cuz at first, you're all like, OMFG, SQUALL CAN'T BE DEAD!!! But then its all good. 8)

Oh, I KNOW (for the most part) what happens at the end of Crisis Core (kinda obvious) but I STILL know I'm gonna be super sad... Zack seems like he's so awesome! 8(

HAHA!! Your Squall emote... JUST PERFECT!!! XD

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManYES! Glad you like the emoticon.

¬\¬ = whatever!

Oh man, you're so lucky to have seen the extra ending to FF10-2. I only got to see (what I assume is) the normal ending that I told you about before; which often makes me tempted to watch the extra ending vid on youtube! But then I know that'll take the reward out of playing the game again, so so far I've managed to stave off the temptation. I hope to eventualy play all the numbered FFs I've completed again, but the second time it would be with the strategy guides so I can make sure I GET everything and DO everything the right way!
But considering FF13's release is imminent, I think it'll be a while before I can play the others again.

Speaking of the others - OMG; FF1 is simply awesome!
It's brilliant, it's making it's way to being one of my most FAV Final Fantasy's (like FF8)...... AND I HAVEN'T EVEN COMPLETED IT YET!!
I won't spoil it for you but somewhere along your journey, expect some battles that come from LATER FFs in FF1!
So far, I would rate this Final Fantasy at 90%!
I'll give it another rating when it's finished.

killerrabbit05 on February 26, 2010, 6:33:03 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Haha, do you know how to get the extra ending to FFX-2? I don't mean the 100% one (I have yet to get 100% in that game), I mean the uh... other one... 8) OH MAN it's HARD to say it without giving it away!!! >.< But you'll like it.

Haha, I SO want to play them all again, but it'd have to be all the way through! Haha, I currently have 2nd round unfinished saves for 7 and 12, and I've played 10 twice already... 8 was one I started a LONG @$$ time ago (like, I think it was around 2000-2001?) and had to restart like, in 2007 and THEN I finished it... LOL.
Ooo, and a friend said he'd let me borrow his gameboy version of FF6!! I'm super excited about that! 8)

Haha, but YOU are super lucky that you'll get to play FF13... that comes out in like, two weeks, right? (March 9, I believe?)
And NOW I'm really itching to get my hands on FF1 AND FF2 for PSP... SOON!! 8)
LOL, aren't some of the bosses like, summons from the other games and stuff? And I think some of the monsters are similar as well... I don't really know for sure, but I just really wanna get my hands onto it! Dissidia's wearing thin on me... -_-
But I can't wait for the full rating on FF1! 8)

MacalaniaMan on March 1, 2010, 6:32:26 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManHOW MANY ENDINGS ARE THERE TO FF10-2 EXACTLY?!
Ugh, it's making my brain frazzled!! %S

Yes, it is March 9 for the UK release of FF13.
As you know that date, does that mean you too are based in the UK? Or are you from USA?
Anyways, it should be good when it comes out. I plan on being a "REALLY NERDY" fan, and getting to the games shop before it opens so I'm there ready for it! LOL

You're right about the bosses for FF1. Some of the "extra" bosses (in places like the Lifespring Grotto) are the same as bosses from other FFs. For example; in FF1 you get to fight against Gilgamesh from FF5 (which has the "Battle on the Big Bridge" theme playing as you fight), and also bosses like Typhon from FF6 (I think, considering the battle music that plays) appear in FF1.
Though I've completed FF2, I don't remember any "Cross FF battles" (battles from other FFs) appearing in it. Probably because FF2 looked more into proper characters and giving the story to them; more so than FF1 where the main characters are all generally refered to as "the Warriors of Light".

But lucky you on getting the chance to play FF6! GRRRR - I DON'T HAVE THAT ONE!! But if I could get it, I would probably opt for getting the PS1 version as it's the Playstation brand I play more of!

killerrabbit05 on March 2, 2010, 7:04:08 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Haha, I think 10-2 has 3 total endings and a special one for the people who decide to get 100% (that's the one I haven't gotten yet...).

LOL! Actually, I'm in the US (which explains why you always seem to be on at ridiculous looking hours to me 8] ). But I heard they were actually gonna release FF13 on the same date for all territories for once... I always feel bad for the other folks since they usually have to wait extra long than we do in the US for "import" games. They should do that more often...
Imma be super sad I can't play it for a while... but you'll have to tell me what you think of it! 8D
Maybe I'll celebrate it's release with a little pic or something... 8)

MacalaniaMan on March 2, 2010, 6:25:21 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManYou're in the US - COOL!
It's cool because I've never really chatted with an American before.
But that's a good point about the times! I've always noticed that my comments always seem to be posted at weird times of day like 1:33am or 2:13am, when in truth I've actually been online at times between 9:00 - 11:00am!
(Stupid time zones!)

That is odd, though - about FF13's release. Maybe they just thought they'd get it all out in the open and save so many people waiting after such a build up of anticipation!
But yes, I shall let you know what I think of it. 8D

So, you mean to tell me that FF10-2 has 4 DIFFERENT ENDINGS?! >:X
GRRRRRRRR! That means I'll probably have to play it 2-3 times more!! And with FF13 coming out soon - I wonder how old I would be and how much sadder once I've finished 13 AND completed all the others again AND completed 10-2 again to get all the different endings?!

UGH! Why is Final Fantasy SO LONG?
%P
But I guess I can't complain. After all, it has provided me with much happiness and entertainment for the last couple of years! LOL
XD

killerrabbit05 on March 3, 2010, 6:14:43 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Well, the thing about the 10-2 ending scenes is that they're additive... You'll get the one you already got PLUS another one after the credits if you meet certain conditions during the game and ANOTHER one if you get 100%. The other ending you get is NOT additive and is the result of losing in the final battle (hope I didn't give anything away with that!). But I think you can just do New Game+ and you won't have to redo anything you haven't already done (at least I think your version of the game has that...). So TECHNICALLY you only have to play it two times (and you could just restart from a save BEFORE the final battle if you wanna purposely lose and see that ending).

Haha, I don't think I've ever really knowingly had such an extensive chat with someone from the UK!! (although it's possible I have on DeviantArt... there's TONS of international people there!) 8} It's really neat how the internet can connect people like that!

It's the length of FF that really sucks you in, with all that epic storytelling... I have a harder time being attached to shorter games BECAUSE of FF. 8)

MacalaniaMan on March 3, 2010, 6:32:38 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManI understand what you mean. Most of the FF games are long in comparison to other game franchises; I would say the FF games have an average completion time of about 60 hours - or at least that's how it's been with me so far. So I suppose if you were to turn around and play a different game that took you a LOT LESS time to complete compared to FF, you would probably end up thinking to yourself "Hmm, that was a short game!". LOL

I didn't know that's how the 10-2 endings worked; especially if you were to lose the final battle. I remember it saying in the guide that at the end when you hear someone whistle, if you press the X button at that moment you should get some options or something. I pressed X but I didn't get any options, so maybe I missed out on doing something specific earlier in the game. Never mind! I think you're right about the New Game+ thing, because when I started 10-2 again I think it already said that I had 60 something% completed. But I've yet to complete that second save. 83


Well, I said I would give you a full review of FF1 when I've completed it and now..... I HAVE! So here it is:
If SquareSoft really needed to create a game to save them from bankruptcy back in 1987, then I'm glad it was Final Fantasy they made! I'm equally as glad they decided to remake it for the PSP. If I had to describe FF1 in 1 word it would be HARD! HARD, because you never can really sum up a FF game in JUST 1 word! XD
FF1 for the PSP is UTTERLY BRILLIANT. I was so pleased and surprised because even though I knew it was going to be more basic than other FFs, I REALLY didn't expect it to be AS GOOD as it was! The first thing that grabbed me was the music. For a game with a basic 2D layout, the music is simply excellent. Though the music was probably done with a synthesizer, it was so detailed and realistic that it really accompanied the game and story very well.
The characters in the game were also brilliant - even the town's people! They really had their own character and being, so they made your experiences in the towns and caves more realistic. Though the Warriors of Light never really spoke themselves during the game, you get so pulled in by what others tell you to do and where you have to go next that I suppose they really DON'T NEED to speak!
Naturally the battles are ALWAYS good fun, especially when accompanied by an excellent battle theme! The graphics for the magic you cast are great to see (especially the Holy spell) and it's always great to see how much damage you inflict to an enemy. And there's always the opportunity to completely PWN an enemey from another FF - like Gilgamesh! FIY, this FF game makes use of the classic "EXP/Level up" system.
Unfortunately, the chocobos don't make an appearance here as they only really made their FIRST appearance from FF2 onwards. But you always get to meet the OSSUM Bahamut, who helps upgrade your characters' forms (i.e. from warrior to knight). Though Cid doesn't appear, he does get a mentioning!
The ending is BRILLIANT; so touching. Though there is no CG movie, it's all summed up in some simple screen scrolling paragraphs and I think FF1 is the first FF I've played that actually acknowledges me as the player - simply put in the scentences: "Because YOU are the one who travelled through time. YOU are the Warrior who brought the light!" (OOPS! Hope I didn't give anything away there!) And I LOVE that ending!! <3 I completed this game with a team that consisted of a warrior, red mage, white mage and a monk - a team that I highly recommend using as you have the perfect blend of black magic, white magic and physical power!
So in conclusion, this Final Fantasy Fanatic would rate FF1 for the PSP at 94%. It's a masterpiece that set the FF franchise wheels in motion and I'm very proud to have been able to play it. It's definately made it's way to become one of my MOST FAVOURITE FF games (being FF1 + FF8). A MUST PLAY! X3

killerrabbit05 on March 4, 2010, 4:55:48 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Oh, about the whistling thing in FFX-2:
There's one other place you hear the whistling where you must press the X button... I dunno if you want me to tell you? Only if you want me to. ;)

Oh man... FF1 sounds SO awesome!!! I think I'm REALLY excited to hear the music... 8}
'Cuz I'm a nerd like that! Haha! XD
I know for sure when I do get it, I was gonna have a warrior, white mage and red mage. But I wasn't sure what my fourth one would be...
I think I played a little bit of FF1 on some online SNES emulator or something, but it was SUPER hard because I had no idea what the abbreviations for the magic and moves were! Plus it was difficult to level up because the monsters outside of town were a bit difficult, AND I remember that I had hardly any money (I can't remember if the currency was, indeed, gil or not...) and the only way to heal was to pay money at an inn...
But I'm still looking forward to it! And BAHAMUT!!! *squee*
Bahamut is like, MY FAVORITE!!!! XD I'm super happy!
And I'm sure you didn't give enough away to spoil it for me... ;)

Now I've gotta get my hands on it and some of the other ones... Still gotta ask my friend to borrow his game. 8(

MacalaniaMan on March 5, 2010, 12:07:20 AM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManIt would be great if you COULD tell me where the other place for the other whistle was in 10-2. At least then I'll know about it ready for when I go back to my second save (and just in case it doesn't come up in the guide!). ^^

I'm glad you're looking forward to FF1, and so you should be excited about the music. As I said, it's simply EXCELLENT! It would be great if I could find it's soundtrack one day (for the PSP version, that is). That's a good selection of characters you've pre-picked there ready for when you play. As it was a Monk I had in my team also, I would recommend having a Monk in yours - because a Monk can do some lethal damage with it's fists (no weapon needed, unless you use the iron nunchaku). Especially when you get your Monk "upgraded" to a Master and when you reach level 40 onwards. The only downfall with the Monk I think is that it can't equip much armour. It can have some, but not as much as the others you've picked. But anyways, let me know what team you have when you come to play it.

BTW, my characters were at level 58 when I completed the game - so I would recommend that, too. It'll help with some bosses because by then you should have enough HP to be able to bare the brunt from some nasty looking attacks! XD

Also, that SNES emulator thing sounds weird (and illegal maybe?). Me thinks if you're going to play FF, then play it RIGHT! LOL
;3

killerrabbit05 on March 5, 2010, 7:13:48 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Haha, ok, then I shall tell you! 8D
So you know the part when they're at Djose Temple when Yuna falls into the Farplane Abyss alone? Well when you're down there, keep pressing the X button as much as possible so that you hear whistling 4 times... And that should do the trick so you can get something to happen at the end where you press X upon hearing the whistling sound! 8) Hope that made some sort of sense...

Man, I'd LOVE them to have soundtracks with the new versions of the songs from the old games, because they are REALLY good, but the sound quality is poor due to old technological limitations. I absolutely LOVE some of the old tracks... Like the world theme of FF1 and The Rebel Army theme from FF2! I love those tracks so much!

Haha, yeah, I'm not sure whether it was indeed an emulator or some online arcade version of the game, but I stopped playing it because I didn't really wanna deal with it, plus I'd rather play the updated, REAL version. But I shall take your advice and level up mucho! Oh boy do we love level-grinding (which seriously reminds me of FFXII...)! ^_^

MacalaniaMan on March 7, 2010, 5:33:21 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManThanx for the 10-2 tip. I'll try and use it when I (eventually) return to my second save - if I can remember! XD

I agree, the new versions of the songs from the old FFs are Great. They sound so much better! The World theme for FF1 is BRILLIANT! It's the same as the theme that plays when you play through the Warrior of Light's Odyssey in Dissidia (I wasn't sure if you were getting mixed up between that and the Town theme from FF1 in Dissidia). They're both great themes though, and so much better in the PSP version!
:)
And Oh how we LOVE level grinding. It's probably one of the things that makes FF what it is! Thankfully though, the level grinding in FF1 (PSP) is more easy going than FF12. Reasons being that you don't have as many characters to deal with in FF1 than you do in 12 (4 in stead of 6), and you'll find many places along your FF1 travels where the monsters can give you a very good EXP gain (a few hundred EXP points to at least 1000 something, too!). But I hope you enjoy it when you come to it!! ^^

OMG! SQUEEEEEEEEEEEE! HUGE FAN-GIRL SCREAM AND EXCITEMENT!!
FINAL FANTASY 13 COMES OUT TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
XD

killerrabbit05 on March 7, 2010, 6:55:38 PM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Glad to help anytime! ;)

Haha, I did indeed mean the theme that plays during WoL's Destiny Odyssey... I absolutely love that theme! It gives me chills when I hear it because it is THAT awesome and amazing!
LOL, but the Town Theme from FF1, that ALWAYS screws me up when I playing Dissidia and it comes on during battle... I think it confuses me as a battle theme or something. XD Too calm for battle...

I'm glad to hear level grinding won't be SUPER tedious... Those "dungeons" in XII last FOR-EVER... and the same goes with the whole leveling-up she-bang. They level up so slowly... I forget that I won't have to worry about 6 people in my party, just 4. And they will always gain experience in every battle. This makes me happy. 8D

HAHA, OMG FF13 DOES COME OUT TOMORROW!!! I'M SO JEALOUS I DON'T HAVE A NEXT GEN. CONSOLE!!! T^T
I have this sinking feeling Imma end up spoiling it for myself with YouTube vids... it SO TEMPTING THOUGH!! DX

MacalaniaMan on March 9, 2010, 6:37:28 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManI don't think I've ever had a piece of FF music give me the chills. One of the things that does happen though is that when I'm listening to a piece FF music that I particularly love, my fingers tend to either swing around (as if conducting the music) or hit invisible piano keys - as if playing along to the music (despite the fact I DON'T play the piano!).

A little word of warning, though. The leveling up at the beginning of FF1 will be a little slow - considering the nearby enemies are mostly goblins (with a low EXP reward). But like I said, the further you travel then the better the enemies and EXP rewards!



Well, it's finally happened. I now own FF13 (Limited Edition) for my PS3 and the Limited Edition of the Strategy Guide - all together costing me just under £80! But it's SO worth it. I got to my local games shop before it opened but I wasn't the only one there (like I half expected). So there are clearly other dedicated FF fans lurking in the nearby shadows! LOL
I've played it for around 2 hours already and I can safely say: ME MOST SATISFIED! LIKEING THE BATTLES AND GRAPHICS!
Thanks to FF13, I think my brain has now melted into a happy mush and is being kept in a jar by my bed! LOL
XD

killerrabbit05 on March 10, 2010, 8:49:24 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Haha, they give me the "chills" in the sense that it makes me so happy to hear them... I guess chills isn't quite the right word to describe it... But I totally do the same thing with my hands and fingers sometimes!
I know a LITTLE bit of the piano, but not enough to play well... occasionally I'll break out the electronic keyboard we have at home and twiddle my fingers on it a bit, sounding out some of the themes, but I can't come up with chords and such on my own. I need sheet music for that, and even then, I can't coordinate both hands to play well at the same time. I have to practice quite a bit to do that.

GAH, I can't wait to play FF13!!!! Maybe in a year or so... 8(
It looks so pretty. 8) I may draw some character shots... I've already made a head sketch of Lightning ('cuz she seems like she's gonna be AWESOME!).
What comes in your strategy guide (since it's limited edition and all)? Is there cool game art or more background on the story?

MacalaniaManI've been known to try and play out some FF themes on an electric keyboard too, in the past. And even then, I only tend to use my right hand because I can't quite get both of my hands to work in sync!
Our similarities are starting to build, don't you think?
Could it be that you're my American DOPPELGANGER?!

*spooky*

The limited edition of the guide (I have) is hard back, with the game's logo all shiny on the front and has fancy silver writing on the back. It's printed on high quality paper (which may explain why the pages are thicker than usual and would probably make it thicker over all than the standard edition). The limited edition is also sequencially numbered so you can see what number you have out of all the limited edition prints! I have number 50,061 out of 210,000.
It also seems to have extra bits of artwork dotted through the guide. So all in all, it's pretty darn good!

The limited edition of the game comes with:
1. the game (obviously!)
2. a cd of some sound selections from the game (awesome, btw)
3. a unique brand of l'cie decal - the synbol the l'cie have (I think your only supposed to have 1, but I found 2 in my copy!)
4. double sided postcards of the characters and their Eidolon summons
5. a little hard-back book of art from the game.
And it all comes in a handy little box, with the game logo on front and general game description on back.

I'll let you know how I get on (and try not to spoil it for you at the same time!).


BTW - found this vid the other day. V.FUNNY! It's from the same guy that did the "Dissidia: Real Men" vid. If you haven't seen it yet, then see it NOW!

killerrabbit05Whoa... I mostly play the keyboard with my right hand too! That is DEFINITELY weird... LOL Doppelganger!!! XD
That'd be SO weird and funny!

That limited edition box sounds SO awesome! The extras seem like they are TOTALLY worth it! I've seen some of the l'cie mark designs before, and they look really neat... and it'd be sweet to see the art in the art-book!

AND THE VIDEO YOU SENT!!! XD
I could NOT stop laughing! I was feeling a bit in a funk earlier, but that really helped bring me out of it!!! XD
Squall making fun of Cloud was HILARIOUS... AGAIN! And the whole clown thing... XD "You're like the ketchup on my bacon in the morning." XD
Sephiroth: JEEEENNNOOOOOOVVVVAAAAA!!!!!
Jecht: I used to be a whale!
Tidus: You wanted to be a whale?
Jecht: Of course I wanted to be a whale!!!
That part made me laugh SO HARD. Seriously, thanks again for the funny vid sharing!!! XD

MacalaniaManYou're welcome.
Glad I was able to help "de-funk" you.
Tidus: DON'T DO IT! He's just gonna try and trick you into sucking his di-
Jecht: DAMMIT, BOY!!

Squall: ~Cloud and Zack, sitting in a tree. F-U-C-K-I-N-G!~
Cloud: What is your problem?!
Squall: Hmmm, that's a good question.
~Cloud and Barret sitting in a tree......~
LOL. That's one of my favourite parts! ^^

If I find anymore LOL worthy, de-funkable vids then I'll be sure to let you know.
Geez, that makes it sound like I have nothing else to do with my life! <:P

FF13 is going well, by the way. The "sphere grid"-esque development system is very good and enjoyable. I recently got to ride a big robot and smoosh enemies beneath my feet as I walked - until the character crashed it, that is! But it's all really good!

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Haha, there were sooo many hilarious moments in that video...
And I agree, the part where Squall was teasing Cloud... was so freaking funny. My favorite part is still the whale part. But that's mostly 'cuz I love whales. And sea critters. ^_^

And no, it doesn't make it sound like you have no life... sounds more like happenstance to me! 8)

Ooo... robots that crush things in FF13? That sounds quite awesome!!

mechadragon13*points to below comment* WOW, that's one epic conversation!

You've got yourself some nice art in that there gallery of yours~♪

So i heard *coughreadprofilecough* you like Final Fantasy? :D

MacalaniaMan on February 17, 2010, 6:40:27 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaMan"Like" Final Fantasy??
I LOVE FINAL FANTASY! IT'S MY PASSION!!

We can have a FF conversation too, if you like.

So........ do YOU like Final Fantasy?
If so, which one is your favourite?
Mine's 8!

mechadragon13 on February 18, 2010, 1:37:47 AM

mechadragon13 on
mechadragon13LOL i love FF too~! I'm more of a KH fan, though.

My favorite FF has to beeeee...... VII. or XII. I'll probably love XIII and Versus XIII when they come out.

But wow, Dissidia has to be the most fun to play. I just LOVE the action-battle system. I usually play as Lv92 Cloud, but i use Squall and Zidane as well. And sometimes Gabranth >.>

MacalaniaMan on February 19, 2010, 9:25:14 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManLOL. A lot of people have FF7 as their favourite, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion obviously.

I agree, DISSIDIA is brilliant fun to play.
Cloud, Squall and Zidane are great characters to be; Squall, Zidane and Sephiroth being some of my favs!

I've mentioned some useful tips for Dissidia in my other conversation below, if you'd like to see them.
They really work for me!

mechadragon13 on February 20, 2010, 1:01:41 AM

mechadragon13 on
mechadragon13of course everyone's entitled to their own opinion~! To be honest, i'd play all the FFs in existence if my PS1's memory card wasn't all messed up DX

lol, i tried getting my dad to play Dissidia (he's a huge FF fan too) but he never got a hang of the controls XD To be honest, i never bothered with dodging until i figured out you kinda needed to to beat Chaos at the end XD

Speaking of FF, would you happen to be a fan of Zack Fair? :3

MacalaniaMan on February 22, 2010, 11:11:44 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManI would say "YES"; I like the character Zack Fair.
Not obsessed with him, but I do like him.^^
He's such a nice guy in Crisis Core; a brilliant character in that AND Advent Children Complete.
It's just such a shame what happened to him at the end of Crisis Core. So Sad!
*begins crying in a corner*
The Crisis Core Soundtrack is AMAZING - AWESOME, even!
You can feel so much emotion and so much of the story in the music.

P.S. - You never bothered dodging?! HOW DID YOU MAKE IT TO THE END WITHOUT DODGING????
You must have some skills under your belt! LOL
