Good. Gravy. Maybe its just me but I LOVE BF2 I was all geeking out when it came out (Me being a Star Wars geek and all) And I love it. You can play as over 10 heros (Not just Jedi) But Boba Fett! I LOVED playing as Boba.

The game is SO much more in-depth now, not just getting your enemys reinforcements down, but you have objectives in campaign mode. Space battles are very well done. You have to go inside and plant bombs on core parts of the enemys ship then destroy it from the outside I love this game

5/5 for me, flawless

You don't HAVE to plant bombs in the enemy's ship, I use rockets to blow it up.

Boba Fett is a punk, he's crappy IMO.

I'd give the game a 4/5.

Shadowknight

I like to use Bombs, but I think they kinda got my point of what I was talking about..

Bah, Boba will always be my favorite Star Wars character

There's no doubt that squaresoft will make games for Microsoft now, what I'm not too sure about is whether they will put the FF series on the 360.

No doubt FF11 is coming out for the 360, but FF13 or FF14 we'll just have to see.

While i don't like any video game characters particularly, i think they can be portrayed as hot. They don't look it with PS1 graphics, but now with the DOA series and all, video game characters can be seen as hot.

Yeah the double keyblade battle is really fun.

This is how it works, basically you have this "Drive Meter" that fills up in time after killing a lot of enemies.

You can choose to turn into valor form after you have this drive meter filled up.

Valor form allows you to turn into this wacky samurai looking dude and you can wield two keyblades. You can also move faster, do combos you couldn't do with just one keyblde, and you can dash from enemy to enemy dashing anyone with keyblade ruthlesness.

Kingdom Hearts 2 Goes Platinum
Three days to a million

While this number is impressive, it's worth noting that Japan's two favorite series, Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, tend to do double that in their first day or two at retail. However, we're sure Square Enix is pleased, considering that the first release of the original Kingdom Hearts didn't even cross the million mark in Japan.
Square Enix expects Kingdom Hearts II to reach the ten million mark in worldwide sales

And yeah I've played Half Life 2 for the Xbox and it's not worth purchasing at all.

It's nothing compared to the PC version and it has no online play. YEP NO ONLINE PLAY.

So personally I wouldn't reccomend it.

I dont know why people hate on FFVIII, it's actually my favorite FF game.

FFVII in my opinion is wayyyy overrated.

Why? My guess is because it was the first 3D FF and its like a first kiss and girlfriend(leaves a strong impression and hard to forget).

Torgo
01-03-2006, 01:43 AM
I really liked both FF7 and FF8. I thought 7 had the better storyline overall (and Ultimecia wasn't one of the series' better villains). FF9 was good in some ways, but not up to the standard of most of the others. I usually play through FF games at least twice, but I only completed this one once. And FFX is brilliant, while X-2... isn't.

For some reason I'm really enjoying playing FF5 at the moment, even though I didn't really enjoy 6, which many still claim is the best.

Buying it online is your only realistic option, I'm afraid. Amazon.com have it for around $28. I was a big fan of BOF 3, but for some reason I never got around to buying 4, or Dragon Quarter (which doesn't really sound all that great to me).

Picked up a copy of Xenosaga part 2 the other day. Not a bad game at all, although it seems a bit tricky at times. Maybe the combat system is a bit much for my overworked brain to handle.

I also can't think of a game that has longer cutscenes. Even Metal Gear's seem short compared to these ones.

TMLS' BROTHER
01-22-2006, 04:55 AM
I'm playing that game too, i've found it hard to get into but still a good game from what i've seen.

I totally agree with the cutscene thing! I saved it jsut before the first boss-type guy and i beat him in about 3 minutes then i had a 20 minute cutscene then i get to move a character a few feet and htne i get another cutscene, I mean WTF?

MGS 1 was definetly the best!

It was an awesome game back in the PS1 Age.

And I gotta agree with you guys, the Xenosaga cutscenes get really annoying.

I've found that although it's a game, it's focused so much more on all the movies in the game.

Whcih is not a good thing.

Anywho, anybody looking forward to the FPS Black?

It's release is in about two months!!!

Or rather less than a month and a half.

If you go to Gamespot you'll see videos of this really good looking game. Amazing graphics for both the xbox and PS2. I hope; however, that the ps2 will run this game smoothly.

Like for instance, the Shinra Mansion. It has an entire completeness to it now.

I didn't enjoy controlling Cait Sith, though.

I've heard some bad and good reviews of Dirge of Cerberus but haven't had the money to pick up a copy. So far I've heard that there are some wicked fmv's and awesome visuals.

If you're interested in mmo's you should derfinetly look into World of Warcraft it's pretty fun.

But like luthorsmento said mmo's take a lot of your time. More time than your usual rpg.

Have to second the awesomeness of Dirge of Cerberus. besides Shinra mansion, I thought the Train Graveyard was VERY well done.

And while I died several times, I *did* quite enjoy controlling Cait Sith.

I actually have to replay 'cause I missed one of the G-reports for the secret ending. I don't recall "Vincent the Mage", was that a secret mission? If I missed it I'd love to know how to get it to do it this next time through.

I didn't know there was a secret ending. I got all six G-reports, but I only got one Omega Report. Vincent the Mage was like the fifth secret mission. The one before the labyrinth.

Think there are only three G-reports, but to get the secret ending just hit the "x" button when the "The End" screen comes up after beating the game and sitting through the credits/final scenes.

You're sure you have the three G-Reports? G-Reports are different from Omega Reports. There are three "secret" G-Reports on top of the six regular Omega Reports. You have to have those to get the secret ending.

If that doesn't work I'm sure it can be found online.

I think you're thinking of Omega Reports then, there are definitely only three G-Reports. Omega Reports are the ones you only find in Shinra Mansion.

I'm talking about the reports that are in the lab just before you go to Reactor Zero near the end of the game. And I found six of them. I only got one Omega Report from the Shinra Mansion because I wasn't paying attention.

MidgardDragon
08-28-2006, 10:46 AM
Oh, the reports you're talking of are the "Top Secret Deepground Reports" or something to that effect. The game actually tells you to collect those. The G-Reports are pretty well hidden and the game never clues you in that you're supposed to be getting them.

I keep seeing these light bulb looking things throughout the game. I just can't get to them.

MidgardDragon
08-28-2006, 08:26 PM
Hint: Try shooting them.

Or if you want to be spoiled read on ahead. OBLIGATORY ALL CAPS SPOILER WARNING YOU'VE BEEN WARNED.

They're "memory capsules" and if you shoot them, when you go to "event viewer" you can view scenes from the game without playing through again. Some are in very hard to see places so you have to use the scope for a lot of 'em. Really, I don't think it's worth it unless you just wanna do/get everything.

END SPOILERS

The G Reports, however, are just like any other item, you just run across it to pick it up.

Sorry I haven't posted recently but my new job requires me to jump around from place to place. So I have to deal :p But since I've had tons of down time I've been able to play handheld games.

I've been re-playing the games golden-sun 1 and 2 for the gameboy advance, a real gem for any GBA owner.

This game has the exact same game style of FF7. It has an epic story, awesome graphics (yeah even for a GBA) and a fun intuitive gameplay.

If you haven't already played this game I strongly suggest you pick up this game.

But for those of us that don't think FF7 is the end-all, be-all RPG, I think I'll pass on Golden Sun. I don't do hand-helds anyway.

MidgardDragon
08-30-2006, 01:47 PM
I played a short bit of Golden Sun and it really didn't feel similar to FF7 at all, to me. The best handheld RPG you're going to find is Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, and even in that case it's brought down by a lame "card-based" battle system.

DarkseidX
08-30-2006, 08:54 PM
Chain of Memories sucks balls in my opinion. It was kinda boring. I did however like the omnislash cloud released when you had three cards of him.

As for Golden Sun, you should've kept playing it, while it's not a REPLICA of FF7, the game is really quite similar.

And not so much similar to just FF7 but to any FF game really.

It's gameplay is the exact same, the world map, summons, magic (obviously :p)

MidgardDragon

I will add that you have to enjoy Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts 2 to enjoy CoM, as it is a tie-in. It far from sucked balls, though. Golden Sun bored me, something CoM didn't do, although I'll admit much of that is because CoM already had characters I cared about.

I'm a KH junkie :lol:

If you read the past like 1000 posts which I know you wont :p You'll read I'm a KH and KH2 fanatic.

I just hated having Sora and the gang turned into 2d freaks controlled by cards :\

MD you play any mmo's or are you strictly console?

MidgardDragon

I used to play Ultima Online, but got bored with it, still play on a free server though. I played the 10-day World of Warcraft trial, but wasn't willing to pay the monthly fee afterwards. I have Guild Wars installed and play occassionally, but I'm not that into it. Although I do play plenty of PC games, so I'm not strictly console.

I hated the card part of KH:CoM, but Organization XIII, Namine, and the rest of the non-Disney part of the story kept me quite entertained. And frankly, the combat system was fun after you got to the higher levels and could just setup a deck to do what you wanted it to and hit x over and over.

I didn't like KH2 anywhere near as much as the first one. I just felt like it was cheap and a shameless sequel made to capitalize on the fantastic-ness of KH.

I never played Chain of Memories because I hate handhelds.

My favorite FF game is FF6. But then, I'm an oldschool gamer. I'm still trying to do an all-white mage quest in FF1.

I'm going to get World of Warcraft today.

MidgardDragon

Have you tried the 10-day free trial yet, 1.21? I'd suggest giving that a go before shelling out the bucks for it, personally.

My roommate has it. I've been playing it whenever he's not around. I love it. I'm just about to install it. I've got the 10-day free trial. My birthday is on the 11, so I'm going to take that cash and pay for two months for the game and buy FFXII.

I'm going to get World of Warcraft today. I totally agree with you, KH2 wasn't as good as the first KH. I think thats partially because the first one was so original and new that the whole world in general admired it's unique qualities.

As for WOW, I'm glad your making an account and if you're looking for a server to join, go to Blackwing Lair which is a pvp server.

I have a 60 rogue on that server so I can get you into my guild.

MidgardDragon

Got the secret ending on Dirge of Cerberus. It was....quite interesting. If you want to see it without playing it's up on YouTube several times over. Of course it won't make as much sense to those who haven't played the game. And it made *no* sense to me, who has played the game. >_<

KH1 vs. KH2 debate: I thought the gameplay in KH2 was leaps and bounds above KH1, but the story was only the same level, if not a little worse.

I guess you'll be reading this too late but I really reccomend playing eithers warriors or priests.

These two classes are always needed in raids and in instances.

If you're looking for a class that's fun to play and a blast to play with in pvp I reccomend the rogue class, which is arguably the best dps class.

I'm gonna make some suggestions to you, don't waste money on buying weapons.

The only thing you should be doing until lvl 40 is saving money to buy your mount. And then keep saving your money.

Anything you buy before 60 is just a waste of money.

And I reccomend since your a warrior to only do AV and WG in bg's.

AV stands for Alterac Valley which is a type of battle in Battle Grounds (which is what bgs stands for :p )

As for WG that stands for Warsong Gulch. As a warrior you'll probably only want to play those two. Arathi basin really isn't worth it.
