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!).

Seeing your name is kinda funny. I've been playing Final Fantasy X recently and I'm almost at the Macalania Temple. Just finished beating the Spherimorph.

Good work does deserve praise, after all!

Good luck with your FFX progress; especially when you reach Sin. I won't divulge too much info, but just make sure your characters are strong and have Haste/Hastega. ^_^

MacalaniaManNo, no story.
It's just a series of existing well known characters that I draw in a new style - which hopefully people will like. But I haven't done much drawing recently, so I'll need to try and draw some more characters (so then it would actually be a "series"!). lol

killerrabbit05Ooo, so the other day I FINALLY got Crisis Core!!! It's sooo freaking addicting and fun! I really love it! ^_^

Let's see... I am at the part right after the Genesis troops broke into the Shinra building and I fought the Bahamut fury... which was AWESOME!!!! I've been doing so many missions too! Zack is so cool, gotta love him! ^_^

MacalaniaMan on March 30, 2010, 3:02:54 AM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManYou've got Crisis Core?! AWESOMENESS!!! XD
Isn't it such a great game? The characters and the story were really good in my opinion. ^-^
BTW, where are you now in it and how's Zack's stats?

FF13 is going really well. It's REALLY OSSSUM! I LOVE IT!!
I've now reached chapter 10 in the story, and I've got all the characters you're meant to have. The characters all have their own "being" and personality, which I think is really great and the characters' A.I. during the battles is really clever.

Anyways, how you been? Done much artwork?
I've recently finished a pic of Lugia from the new Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver games. Watch this space! ;3

killerrabbit05 on March 30, 2010, 7:27:15 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Crisis Core WAS amazing!!! I just beat it on Sunday, actually... Which is sad, because it took me precisely a week to finish.
Lemme see, lemme see... I finished at Level 48... and the other stats weren't really all that amazing since I relied on materia and items for it... But I'll play it again and try to actually finish ALL the missions.
But MY GOSH was that a good, fun game... or at least the story was good. It really tied things together for me in the whole VII universe, especially the whole Genesis thing, because his brief appearance at the end of DoC made me REALLY confused... and there's still a bunch of stuff they could add on to with that.
And the ending... T_T It really broke my heart, but they way the staged it all was quite good, especially with the whole breakdown of the DMW wheel and everything.
LOL, Zack is, like, one of my new favorite characters. XD
His upbeat personality was a real breath of fresh air in the VII universe, since most of the main characters are a bit dark and broody. And I loved seeing his growth in personality.

I'm still in my post-game addiction phase... I get it every time I beat a game. I find the soundtracks and some cut-scenes on YouTube and constantly listen/play them... Like right now! XD
But the soundtrack... I love it! The whole guitar rock theme, the AMAZING remixes of past VII songs, and the new tracks that follow the same musical theme like The Price of Freedom, Under the Apple Try, and the vocal song, WHY. Just amazing.

LOL thus ends my fan-rant. I'm up to talk some more about it since I feel a need to gush and nerd out. Anyways...

That's great to hear about FF13! I see the commercials on TV all the time (except for the Xbox, which makes me EWWW), and I can't wait to play it in all it's gorgeous, awesome glory! Who's your favorite character so far?

I've been well. School just started up again this weekend (last week was Spring break, which I spent... playing Crisis Core XD), so my schedule's about to get all hectic all over again.
I haven't been drawing as much as I'd like too... I just finished a KH: Birth by Sleep pic yesterday, and was finishing up a comic me and a friend over on DA were doing.
Now that I've finished Crisis Core I have something else to add to my loooonggg list of stuff to draw. I really need to draw something FF, it's been a while. XD The last time was when I drew a quick head sketch of Lightning to celebrate XIII's release... And I've got some other stuff in the works.

Did you actually get one of the new Pokemon games? My room-mate got Soul Silver and she loves it. I remember that the Silver/Gold games were my absolute favorite. I can't wait to see your Lugia, that was one of my FAVORITE Pokemon! 8D Do you have any favorites?

ShadowFalcon on March 23, 2010, 6:45:38 AM

ShadowFalconThanks for adding me to your faves!
It seems that if all you do is pencil drawings and lineart, you remain quite obscure.

MacalaniaMan on March 30, 2010, 2:47:45 AM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManUr welcome.
But it's not just pencil drawings and lineart I have.

In my gallery, I have a painting, an oil pastel pic, some comics done with felt tip pens and other stuff. So I wouldn't call myself obscure!
I like to think of myself as an "adaptive" artist. ^-^

killerrabbit05 on February 23, 2010, 10:54:40 AM

killerrabbit05 on
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

MacalaniaMan on
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
¬\¬
-

BUT I had to copy the ¬ symbol because it's not on my laptop's keyboard... 8(

MacalaniaMan on February 25, 2010, 7:08:40 PM

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!
%3

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

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

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?

MacalaniaMan on March 10, 2010, 7:12:10 PM

MacalaniaMan on
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?!
0____0
*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!

killerrabbit05 on
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.

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 March 17, 2010, 3:48:50 AM

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!!

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

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Haha, I'm moving the FF conversation here... 8)
I'm one to enjoy lengthy fan-rants... Let's see, where were we?
Haha, yeah, I think my room-mate was really turned off by the fact that it was a PS1 game with crummy graphics... I didn't think that when I played 7 (and I first played it about 3 or four years ago?). Which makes it an even more awesome game, because it doesn't need to look pretty to be good. I stole her DS for KH:358/2 days (we're both big KH fans) and I beat it before her. I may consider getting a used DS if at all... Since I spent bucks on my PSP and all.

Nah, I don't HATE 10-2, it was just really different for me. The beginning of the game was the only weird thing, since it seemed so random, but as the game went on more for me, it didn't seem weird. And I loved the ending. It's just out of the FF's I've played, it didn't wow me the most.

Sorry for the super LONG comment... ^_^

MacalaniaMan on January 31, 2010, 6:32:19 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManHey, don't worry about it. I like long comments; it makes me think "there must be something awesome going on here to make the comment so long!". ;P

In truth, I've played and completed 15 different FF games. Other than the numbered ones, the others being: Dirge of Cerberus FF7, FF12 Revenant Wings, Crisis Core FF7, FF Crystal Chronicles - Ring of Fates, FF Tactics A2 - Grimoire of the Rift, FF Fables Chocobo Tales and DISSIDIA!

I agree with you when you say that FF7 being a PS1 game is awesome because it's true, and I think this for the ohter PS1 FF titles. They don't need to look pretty to be good! They've made me think a few times (especially with FF8) that considering when they were made (1997-2000), the graphics and music are really good. Amazing.
OMG, I love the music! The awesome sound of a synthesizer to capture those memorable moments is brilliant! I've got the soundtrack for FF7, FF7 AC, FF8 and DISSIDIA on my iPod. IT'S AWESOME!

*Sorry for the uber long comment. Hope I haven't bored you!*

killerrabbit05 on February 1, 2010, 6:28:08 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Hmm... the other FF titles I have played don't even come close to how many you've played...
I've only finished Dirge of Cerberus out of un-numbered titles; I'm currently playing Dissidia, I've started Revenant Wings (my roomie somehow ended up buying that one for her DS), and I plan on getting Crisis Core.

Haha, sometimes I think the PS1 FFs were really THE best all around, because despite their limitations, they managed to come through and tell an absolutely awesome story. FF8 was pretty epic, and I know the first time I started playing it, I thought it was amazing (although I was too young and impatient to see the story to fully exploit the junction system properly).

OMG, I'm such a music nerd too!!! I LOVE the music, it's absolutely gorgeous! Even those midi tones sound amazing!
LOL, I just bought the Dissidia soundtrack and I already have the tracks for FF7, FF7:AC, FF7:Doc, FF8, FF10, FF10-2 as well as some of the orchestral and piano pieces (of which I want more...).
It's like every time I play one of the games I HAVE to have to music for it... I guess in a sense it's like reliving the game without having to play it all over again...

And I love long comments... So you don't need to worry about it either. ;)

MacalaniaMan on February 1, 2010, 8:21:54 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManOMG, I share your sentiments exactly! All the FF soundtracks I have; I bought them after I played the games and yes, I have some of the orchestral/piano pieces too! One of the best ones I've heard is the orchestral version of the Final Fantasy 7 main theme; you know the one that plays when your on the world map first time around. It's such a beautiful piece of music; you can really feel the emotions the game portrays.

I have quite a few fav pieces of music, of which I will only list some!
1. Tsuteki Da Ne - the song that plays when Tidus and Yuna have their emotional moment in the water in FF10.
2. Waltz for the moon - the music that plays when Squall and Rinoa have their dance at the graduation ceremony in FF8.
3. The music that plays when you fight Kuja in his Trance form near the end of FF9. (Can't remember what it's called!)
4. One Winged Angel - the awesomest ballad of evil and destruction for the awesome Sephiroth in FF7! I LOVE the original synthesized version, the rock version in FF7 AC AND the orchestral version in DISSIDIA!

I LOVE the One Winged Angel track SO MUCH, that I've even learned the LYRICS!! :P

BTW, have you heard of a group called "The Black Mages"? Their a japanese group of which Nobuo Uematsu is a part, and they play rock covers of Final Fantasy tunes. Check them out on Youtube if you haven't already.

I also URGE you to get Crisis Core. IT'S GREAT! ONE FOR EVERY FF FAN TO PLAY!! It's so good, that the ending almost made me cry!! *wipes away a tear remembering it*

OMG, I'm such a nerd! BUT I DON'T CARE!!!!! XD

killerrabbit05AHHHH!!! This is so much fun!!! 8) Most of my friends aren't all that into FF, and even if they are, we don't talk about it all that often!

I have most DEFINITELY heard of the Black Mages, they have some really awesome remixes! I've only bought Those Who Fight Further, JENOVA and The Man With the Machine Gun, which I absolutely LOVE. Their rock-techno interpretations of the songs are pretty epic.
But my favorite rock-mix is of course Advent Children's One-Winged Angel... IT IS SO AMAZING!!!! Haha! That song is pretty crazy though. I think I used to know what the latin lyrics meant, but I don't really remember anymore... I just say the latin along with the song sometimes. And when I do, I get weird looks from my sister (she knows what it is from since she's watched me play many of the games, but she thinks it's weird I know the lyrics).

GAWD, I have so many favorite tracks...
I love the Chocobo theme... Pretty much all versions of it...
I love FFV's battle theme and the Battle at the Big Bridge track...
I love the main theme of FINAL FANTASY (the one that plays at the end of every game... I especially like FFXII's version)... And the Prelude too!
And many character themes... AND THERE ARE SO MANY I LOVE IT'S NOT EVEN FUNNY!!! It would take waaay too long for me to list all the ones that make me excited when the song starts to play...

There are too many games that I WANT to play because I'm pretty much a late-comer to gaming in general. I didn't really get majorly into the stuff until about... 5-6 years ago? Like I started with a PS1 but only played like Spyro and racing games, and then I tried FF8 and never finished (for like, 3 or 4 years... O_o). It wasn't until I got Kingdom Hearts that I became REALLY interested (haha, yes I am a KH fan-tard 8D).

MacalaniaMan on February 3, 2010, 3:38:58 AM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManI love KH too, especially the second one. But I have to admit, I love FF more...WAY MORE!!

I'm glad you've heard of the Black Mages. The JENOVA theme is awesome, but I can recommend some MORE OSSSUM tracks of theirs. Try getting your hands on "Maybe I'm a lion", "ZEROMUS" and their rendition of "Battle on the Big Bridge".

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! I <3 the Final Fantasy theme (the one at the end). Almost every time I hear it, it fills me with such a great sense of success and accomplishment; like the game itself is saying: "Congratulations! You've just saved the world and completed another adventure!" Do you ever get that when you hear that theme?
There is a website where you can get the lyrics to a lot of the songs from various FF games. I can't remember what the site is called, but just type "final fantasy lyrics" into google and it should be one of the first choices! ^^

Something I URGE you to see. Go onto youtbe, type "final fantasy in a nutshell" and you should find one called "FF7" or "final fantasy 7 in a nutshell". It should have a pic of FF7 AC with it, should be just under 2 mins long and have "DBZ" in the description.
*I know that's a pretty detailed instruction, but I really want you to see it! It made me laugh so hard that my chest hurt!! XD*

Hope we can talk about our fav FF moments soon.

killerrabbit05 on February 3, 2010, 8:24:40 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Oh yeah... and beware of the major cussing that the videos have... Just FYI. 8)

killerrabbit05 on February 3, 2010, 8:20:55 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05I feel like FF is better because... Well, it feels more serious. But I like both.

Haha, the FF theme DOES make one feel so accomplished... Makes you feel so proud! I pretty much know the lyrics to the English songs, but for the Japanese ones, I can say most of them but have no idea what they mean. I sorely wish I had learned Japanese. Maybe, if I can find some gaps in my schedule, I would be able to take some classes. XD

I feel so bad that I never checked out any of the other songs by the Black Mages... Probably because I hadn't heard most of the songs they covered before (like, from older FFs) or I wasn't a fan of the original song before. Like, I had never heard the Zeromus song before, but it seems pretty awesome! And so does Maybe I'm a Lion... Will have to look into that more...

HAHAHAHA!!! That video was SO funny! I've seen the original before (the DBZ one) but... THAT WAS MORE FUNNY!!! Haha, and Kadaj's voice as Freeza!!! LOL!!
If you haven't seen this yet, you should watch it! It's a Dissidia thing that I found and thought was SO funny!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHEj3XZqEmE
And I know you haven't exactly played FFXII (or did you?) but there's another pretty funny flash animation someone made that totally makes fun of it... And I LOVE IT!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTtF2a3h0-A

LOL!! Now we're sharing funny YouTube crap! XD

MacalaniaMan on February 3, 2010, 7:33:04 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManOMG! Thank you from the bottom of my crystal encrusted heart. Just watched those vids you recommended - SO FUNNY! Tears came to my eyes they were so funny!
"Only a real man would beat up a helpless child!"
"Why would you destroy my favourite pillar?! You're a bad man!!" LOLOLOLOLOL!!!!
I don't know if you've seen it, but someone has made a FF spoof using the action figures! I found it SO funny; it makes fun of all the right/obvious things! Here's the link:
http://www.youtube.com/thefinebros#p/u/10/iUB18Y8Ik0M

Also these:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80wcp3Zsbuo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyk8beeWf8E&feature=related

I don't mind cussing. When used in spoofs, it's really funny! But I have to admit, I was a little surprised when I first saw the swearing when playing FF7 - all the other FFs I played before 7 didn't really have any swears. I eventually got used to the swearing (99% of it coming from Cid as you know) but then when I played FF8, I have to admit I was a little sad that there WASN'T as much swearing there!! That didn't stop me from enjoying the game as a whole, though. FF8 is OSSSUM!! XD

With the Black Mages music, I don't think you necessarily need to have heard the original tunes because their music sounds OSSSUM anyway. But what I find is with a few of their tracks; having already heard a lot of the original synthesized tunes, I like to try and match the two songs up in my head. Do you ever get that?

Sadly no, I haven't played FF12 itself. Only Revenant Wings. Though I should give it a try; as one of my goals in life is to play as many FF games as possible til I depart for the farplane! (Sad goal, I know. But when you're that passionate about something, you tend not to care and just go along with it!)

Any chance you could rate FF12 for me (in %), and give me 1 good reason for playing it??

killerrabbit05 on February 4, 2010, 8:46:26 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05OMG!!! Haha, I've seen those vids before, but I still love 'em!!! Especially the last two... Barret's little rants always cracked me up... And Vincent the "vampire"! XD You know everyone probably wondered that at first... I mean, he was locked in a coffin for a few decades. That's kinda suspicious. XD

I agree, it was weird seeing swearing in FF7, because it doesn't look like the type of game to, but it was still hilarious. I think that was the only game in the series that had a noticeable amount; although I don't know about the early versions, I'm guessing from you that they don't have it.

It's totally cool if you haven't played FFXII yet; I too want to have at least played all the main titles one day (I proly won't get FFXIII until a few years after it's been out, seeing as it's on a next gen. console...)
There's a lot of mixed reviews on it, with some people outright hating it and others thinking its absolutely the best.

Here's the low-down from me:
As far as it being its own game, it's great; it's pretty, it's a wide open world, and you can choose whether or not to do the kajillion side-quests (in this case, the hunts). The story is pretty straight-forward and vaguely interesting.
The character development isn't as in-depth as it is in other games though. And the main character, Vaan, really shouldn't be the main character. I can understand the concept behind choosing him as the main character; he (like the player) is totally thrown into the situation at hand and is pretty much along for the ride, watching the story go along. Other than that, he's not important to the main story. Plus, he's annoying, in my opinion.
The story... well, it's more political than any of the recent FFs. All the other one's seem to focus on the characters struggle to save the world and there's some love story involved, but there is no love story in this one.
And another thing... there seems to be a LOT of things in the game that are comparable to Star Wars. If you do end up playing it, it's easy to see the various comparisons, and it makes the story seem sort of... unoriginal? I think it's cool, but I can see some people getting all huffy over that.
The battle system... Well, it's kind of meh. It's really easy to use and promotes lazy gaming; there are some bosses that you can simply leave the game and come back later, and you'll still be fighting. There's not a lot of direct control, and the system, while interesting, gets old after a while. And there is a LOT of level grinding and the "dungeons" seem to last forever.
I hope that was as un-biased a review as possible; I personally liked the game because it was different, and I became all fan-girl over a certain character *ahem* BALTHIER <3 *ahem*...

MacalaniaMan on February 5, 2010, 11:24:57 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManThanx for the review. I should give it a try one day. I've recently started playing FF1 for my PSP and I have to say... I'm very pleased. Surprised even. I didn't expect it to be as good as it is! The battle theme is OSSSUM!! ^^

I'm glad you've seen those vids before. It's a shame Vincent was kicked out of the turks because... HE'S A FREAKIN' VAMPIRE!! They don't allow vampires in the turks! LOL

killerrabbit05 on February 6, 2010, 5:18:16 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05OOOO, really? When I first got my PSP I was gonna buy that game but the store I went to had the game-box but not the game-disc... I was really bummed. I wanted to play that one too...it's kinda the game that started it all, although slightly modified. Maybe I'll see if I can get it soon...

Anyways... If you ever happen to play FFXII, lemme know what you think! I know the beginning can be a *bit* tedious, but it gets more interesting as the game progresses!

MacalaniaMan on February 9, 2010, 7:55:15 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManI'M SO ASHAMED!!!
MY LAST COMMENT TO YOU WAS SO SHORT! I AM WILLING TO ACCEPT ANY PUNISHMENT!! *hangs head in shame*

Anyways....WHAT A STUPID STORE!!!! How can they think of selling a game that they don't even have the disk to? It's quite idiotic, if you ask me! >:P

I suppose that's a good idea - waiting a couple of years before getting FF13. At least that will give you the chance to get a next gen console (I assume you don't have one). If you do get around to getting a next gen console, I strongly advise towards getting a PS3.
Reasons for this:
1. Hold true to your FF fan girl nature and stick with Sony's Playstation.
2. Most of the FF games are available for Playstation consoles these days, so it kinda makes sense to stick with them.
3. The PS3 has a built in Blu-Ray player. Which means you can watch FF7 Advent Children on the same system you play games on. Whereas if you had an XBox 360, you would have to shell out a few hundred £/$!!
4. The XBox 360 SUCKS! I mean you have to pay to go online with them, but with the PS3...you don't! It's like part of your normal internet connection with the PS3.

..........Aaaaah. Rage spiral over. ;s

You're right. None of the earlier FF games really have any swears, as far as I can remember! I kinda wish they would, though. It would make the gaming experience more interesting, and give the characters a bit more.... character, if you know what I mean. But curse the gaming industry to tighten it's parental guidance grip!
*begins casting curse on the gaming worlds executives*
*MWAHAHAHAHA*

I'll let you in on something fun from FF1 for the PSP. When I first saw it, it made me laugh! I couldn't believe a game from so early on in the series had such attitude!!
When you enter the first town (called Cornelia), press the A button in front of the fountain. It would reply with:
"You see your reflection in the water. UUGH! Your face is filthy! Go wash up!"

I think that reply would be one of the good reasons for getting FF1! LOL

(HAHA! What a long comment!)^^

killerrabbit05 on February 10, 2010, 7:03:42 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05LOL! Don't be sorry! Sometimes we just can't think of much to say at times! ^_^

Haha, when the guy was trying to find the game behind the counter (I was gonna get it used), he said that someone had turned in the Crisis Core disc with the FF1 game box... I was like, WTF? Haha!

Yeah, I can't afford a Next Gen. console right now... But I was definitely gonna go with PS3. Always been a Sony kid... I'm so adapted to the damn controller format that it's hard for me to go with any other! Plus, I heard there was gonna be some exclusive content only available to the PS3 version of FFXIII AND there are rumors that FF Versus XIII is ONLY gonna be on the PS3 (all these are rumors, but I think they're quite plausible).
And yeah, Blu-Ray is definitely better than the Xbox's HD DVD (that's what it has, right?). I have Advent Children on regular DVD, but Advent Children Complete would be even better (and that one's Blu-Ray only, yes?)! The only thing is that I wouldn't get to play some of the exclusives that are on Xbox, but there seem to be some equally awesome exclusives on PS3...
And I've also seen that PS3's are sturdier than any other game system (although I shouldn't have to worry all that much about it...).

Haha, but from what I've seen, the old FFs have their own character in their own way (like your fountain example) and that famous Spoony Bard thing... It seems that they've added lots of little things like that into the old games.

MacalaniaMan on February 10, 2010, 5:20:24 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManI don't really know what exactly the XBox 360 has. I only really know about the PS3 (because it's OSSUM). And I don't really know what's true or not about these FF13 rumours. I generally just wait until the game is released, and go with it's flow!
Yes. I believe Advent Children Complete IS Blu-Ray only, and it's definitely worth getting! It has like 30 minutes of extra movie footage (that ISN'T in the DVD version), a story digest of the whole FF7 saga (including any games before and after the initial FF7) and a bonus animated short that shows a more indepth look at Denzel and his life.
So the Blu-Ray of ACC is kinda like a Director's Cut. IT'S BRILLIANT!!

BTW, what's that Spoony Bard thing from? (Which FF?)
Either I haven't come across it, or I'm too stupid to remember! XD

With regards to FF1 and FF2; considering they've both been released for a couple of years now (since 2007-2008 I think) and considering the popularity of FF and how many fan-girl nerds like us there are in the world, you would probably have a better chance at getting those games used (unless your willing to pay or bid HIGH amounts of money for a brand new one on eBay or something).
But good luck with trying to find them. If you can save the world from Sephiroth AND Sin, then I'm sure you'll be able to find those games. HAVE FAITH, BRAVE WARRIOR!
;3

killerrabbit05 on February 11, 2010, 9:45:35 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Haha, the Spoony Bard thing was a mis-translation from the original FFIV (which was released in the West as FFII) into English; and they've said it in every translation ever since. Apparently (from what I've read, since I haven't played the game) it's when Tellah gets really mad at Edward the "bard".
That's the extent of my knowledge. I guess it was more funny than anything.
Anyways, yeah, I definitely plan on getting a PS3 in the future and when I do, I definitely wanna get Advent Children complete! It'll be awesome!!!! XD

And I'm for sure gonna get them used for mah PSP. I need more games for it... plus I finally finished the main story mode of Dissidia, and the other stuff will only last me so long... Still love that game though... 8)
I was proly gonna go with Gamestop to get it. I've also seen a I+II bundle type thing at Target before, so if I can get that, it'll be even better! Oh, I'll need to get Crisis Core too... (lol, I'm making a mental checklist in my comment)

MacalaniaMan on February 14, 2010, 8:26:26 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManWell, as far as I'm concerned... that's a good checklist! LOL

Congrats on finally completing the main story of Dissidia. Isn't the end CGI movie awesome? Also, did you know that when the Warrior of Light walks over the horizon (where the castle is) and the sky/background goes green? That scene actually derives from the very first Final Fantasy game. (I've seen a screen shot of the FF1 heroes standing on the horizon over a castle with a green sky in the original NES 1987 version of the game). Just thought I'd exchange a nugget of info for your Spoony Bard thing!
Anyways, now that you've completed the main story you can now do a story for FF11 and FF12 - resulting in Shantotto and Gabranth becoming available for purchase in the PP shop!
*FYI - Gabranth's Ex Mode attack is awesome! It's completely similar to the "Limit Break" system used in FF12, if you haven't unlocked him already that is!

I'm such a DISSIDIA nerd - I've spent over 130 hours on it already.... and counting!
Not a good thing to brag about, I know! (Ugh, I need to get out more!) -_-

killerrabbit05 on February 15, 2010, 6:57:14 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Yeah, the ending CGI WAS awesome!
Haha, when I first saw the Warrior of Light walk towards that castle, I strangely thought it looked vaguely like Cinderella's castle at Disneyland! XD
But that's cool that they reincorporated that same scene from FF1!

Heehee, I already finished the FF12 one... because Gabranth is AWESOME!!! XD I haven't done FFXI one just yet... I figured I'd play some Duel Colosseum and get some synthesis items! I was also trying out all the villains. Of course, they all kinda suck cause I hadn't used them before and they needed to be leveled up, but the easiest ones for me SO far (I have to still try Kuja and Jecht) are Cloud of Darkness, Garland, Ultimecia, Gabranth and Sephiroth! And yeah, it's really cool that Gabranth's Ex Mode attack is JUST like the Quickenings from FFXII! Gotta love that! 8)
I'm still working on getting 100% on everything... It feels so retarded having to go back and play the Destiny Odyssey's with such high level characters... -_-
Oh well! Dissidia is still fun for me though!

MacalaniaMan on February 15, 2010, 6:43:21 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManHmmmmmmmmm. Cinderella's castle, eh? ;p
Well, whatever floats your boat I suppose!

Sephiroth is a brilliant character in Dissidia. Because of the rediculous length of his sword (which is OSSUM), you don't have to be standing too close to your opponent to chip away at their bravery and instantly initiate a chase!
If you don't have it already, then be sure to equip Sephy with the "Black Materia" HP attack. It's an awesome move because you can build it up to be a really huge meteor to fall on your opponent (WITH A HUGE EXPLOSION, TOO!). I recommend trying Kuja. I admit that some of his moves involve being close to your opponent (which can be dangerous), but the outcome of those bravery attacks can differ depending on your distance from the enemy! So he's worht trying.
I don't really know if I'm trying to get 100% on everything myself. At the moment I'm just working on getting everyone at level 100. So far, I have 8 characters at that level.

Do you have any Lv.100 characters?

killerrabbit05 on February 16, 2010, 6:38:26 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05LOL haha, no one's at level 100 yet... My highest right now is Firion at level 82. All my other heroes are in the 40s and 50s... playing favorites much? HAHAHA! XD
And uh... well my villains are all pretty pathetic since I've only just started using them, and haven't worked on them all that much. Haha, plus I only play at night before I go to bed because most of the day is spent on school... :B
I HATE most of the magic users because I prefer mid range to close combat, and they require that you be far away, which can be very difficult at times.

MacalaniaMan on February 17, 2010, 7:18:36 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManFirion at level 82?
Somehow I think he's your fav character! LOL
Just got Bartz to level 100 - that makes 9 all together. Warrior of Light and Gabranth are on their way, too.

I've got some tips for you, if you like. They've really helped me!
1. Be sure to equip some of your characters with the "Tenacious Attacker" accesory, if you don't have it already. It lets you absorb ex-force when you attack your opponent - filling the Ex-Gauge up quicker!
2. The strategy guide suggests fighting a level 100 ExDeath (with a cautious behaviour) when you have an EXP Bonus fight - this being a great way to quickly (and I mean, QUICKLY) level up your characters. I can guarantee it works.

Just thought those tips might come in handy! C:

CURSE SCHOOL!!
If Sephiroth were real, then it would definately be a good idea to have him use the Black Materia to summon Meteor and DESTROY YOUR SCHOOL! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

killerrabbit05 on February 18, 2010, 8:19:58 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Haha, I ALWAYS have Tenacious Attacker equipped on EVERY character.
But I was wondering about a fast way to level up... When you say experience bonus, does it have to be on your designated "Bonus" day or just any day that it shows up on the calendar? And that would be in the Quick Battle mode, I assume? I think I'll use that strategy for all my villains... 8)
And yeah... Firion IS my fav... :]
He's so fun for me to use, I love using his long distance attacks to reel in far-away opponents, then BASH them with his combo branching HP attacks! LOL! XD
Haha, I don't think I mentioned my favorite Heroes to use in Dissidia yet... OBVIOUSLY Firion is my most. 8} Followed by Squall, and Bartz... I think there are others, but I haven't played as those characters in a while and can't quite remember... :/

Haha, I wish I could use meteor to destroy school at times... Actually, scratch school entirely, just the subjects I don't like (ie anything not Biology/Art oriented)! Haha, but alas, these are the ways of college... GAWD does that make me seem old... 0_o

MacalaniaMan on February 19, 2010, 9:18:15 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManNo worries! Everyone's entitled to their own opinion about things. c:

With regards to that Level 100 ExDeath levelling up thing:
It doesn't have to be on your designated bonus day. You know when you fight, and you see a chocobo with a gysahl green or musical note in the corner? Well those chocobos represent EXP bonuses - which means your next fight could give you an EXP bonus of anything like "1.2 times your EXP" or even "5 times your EXP". It's a good idea to do this on your bonus day (because that day would give more bonuses anyway), but whenever you see the chocobo then you need to fight (and YES, it is in Quick Battle mode). I recommend your opponent be a level 100 ExDeath or a level 100 Gabranth can be better! It can also help if you have the "Black Chocobo" play plan (because that plan would give you more bonuses more often). But even if you don't have the black chocobo, this method would still work.
(Gabranth obviously has no HP attacks when NOT in Ex Mode, so you wouldn't be in as much danger. But when he IS in Ex Mode - STAY AWAY FROM HIM!!)
I would give this level up method 5 stars/100%. It really does work, and I can guarantee that! 9 characters at level 100 is proof of how well that method has worked for me!
:3

Let me know how it goes for you.

killerrabbit05 on February 20, 2010, 6:10:11 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05Oo, okay, I shall try it! I've got the Black Chocobo plan, so I think that'll help lots (like ya said!)!
I'll proly die a few times at first, but as long as I get SOME levels, it'll be super helpful! Thanks so much for the awesome level up tip! XD
And today's my bonus day too... XD

MacalaniaMan on February 22, 2010, 11:35:55 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManYour bonus day is Saturday? MINE TOO!
It just seems like the best day to have as your bonus day, being on the weekend of course!
When I was leveling up Tidus using the "level 100 ExDeath" method, I had Tidus (at level 22) fight against ExDeath (level 100). My God; that fight was so long! I saved the replay, and I think that fight was over 10 minutes long.
Somehow, and I mean SOMEHOW, I managed to survive the battle (with many close calls) and levelled up Tidus 15 times!! Level 37 after one fight!

Anyways; the moral of that little story is: Yes, it will take time to get those levels and Yes, you could die (I think that fight was a fluke!) but to have a character level up so many times after one fight is SO WORTH IT!! So, Good Luck with that method. Let me know how you get on with it.

How about a new topic, now?
Of all the FFs you've played, do you have any Favourite F inal Fantasy moments?

I have lots. Some of them being:
1. The scene in FF8 where Squall and Rinoa dance in the SeeD graduation ceremony. I love that scene so much, that I've even watched it again and again on Youtube.
Here's the link if you wanted to see it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlfH3r780So

2. The scene in FF10 where Tidus and Yuna have their embrace in the water. Oh, how I love that moment!

killerrabbit05 on February 23, 2010, 6:33:29 AM

killerrabbit05 on
killerrabbit05OMG, I watched the dancing video in FF8 just the other day! XD
Haha, it's so funny, at first Squall is so clumsy, but then he decides, what the hell, I'll just do it! XD

Haha, I have WAY too many fav moments... I think I'll list them in a new post up top because the space is getting really small down here...

LOL "She has combination skin!" XD Oh man, that was pretty funny...

MacalaniaMan on February 23, 2010, 5:58:50 PM

MacalaniaMan on
MacalaniaManLOL!
I'm glad you saw that parody vid!
"Look at my shoes! They have buckles on them!"
"My dress is blue - I HATE BLUE!!"
"Oh no! They've come back for me! Quick, hide the stash!"
"You smell like Fabreeze - You smell like muffins!"
Some of my favourite parts.

You're right; it is getting rather small down here!
I guess we should just carry on with the conversation up the top.
SEE YOU THERE!! ^^

PhoenixDThanks for all your comments on my drawings. :)

Responses to some of the things you said:

About the time it took to draw Davy Jones:
about 8 maybe 10 hours

And about drawing carefully:
When I was younger I used to draw very slowly, carefully and precisely. But with years of practice one learns to draw much faster and with less effort but still accurately.

MacalaniaManThanx for getting back to me!

Most of the things I draw don't take very long but when it comes to drawing something that needs more time, it sort of bugs me coz I just want to get it done! But I suppose great things take a great amount of time.
Thanx for the advice! Lookin forward to seeing more pics from you. :D
