FFIX is amazing, idc what anyone says about it :< >:I
Needs a 3DS remake; I think the graphical style would work really well on there. :x

IIRC, FFXI is kinda the only thing pulling in profits for SE, and they probably assume FFXIV will pull in profits, too. Safe to assume, but with Matsui just doing what he wants, not taking into consideration the player's feelings or efforts, I see FFXI failing soon after SoA is completed and FFXIV either failing again or Matsui being removed from his position "for the good of the company." From what I've seen and heard of FFXIV ARR thus far, it's not only greatly improved, but is popping up on some top 10 most anticipated MMOs of 2013. Which is a pretty big deal because there's tons of MMOs coming out in the future.
Graphics, blah blah blah, they were great in 1.0 and have gotten better, but that's not really the point. They brought up the rest of the game to match that level of quality. At least from what I've seen. Music is great despite not being Uematsu as well. So I'm excited. It's not all about graphics, I still play old PSX FF games, I do so for the story, gameplay, and designs. I still look at FFIX as the epitome of what Final Fantasy is, it has a fantasy setting in a medieval age with magic-based or magic-enhanced technology. The characters and NPCs had a whimsical design, from the completely realistic humans to the anthropomorphic "beast-kin". FFIX was an artistic masterpiece meant as a salute to the games that came before it.
I think a PS4 remake of some of the older games would do well, we've aleeady heard of FFVIII getting a remastered rerelease and as far as RPGs go, FFVIII was a bit of an underdog. It's basically the same quality though, just made for 720p or 1080p, I forget which. They aren't changing much and they want to make some quick money out of it. Yeah. I'd like to see some remakes with some "free-play" after the credits roll, like temp characters unlocked, kinda like how FFIV Adv. allowed you to recruit temp charactes.

 I agree. I'd prefer a 3/DS port.

mmm gotta stop getting into nerd arguments with 13year olds.
My sister has a fascination with England now because she's been watching Hetalia and England is her favorite character. She was talking to somebody saying that she was a big otaku and I'll admit I'm not a huge anime fan but me and my siblings had a anime phase too when we were younger..so I told her that last I heard being an Otaku (because I'm mean and can't keep my mouth shut) was actually kind of derogatory to which she informed me it wasn't anymore. It just means that she can name various anime series..in fact..over 8 series! she said I was missing out on some great shows.
I said that I've seen animes before...she told me "sailor moon doesn't count"
*z snap*
oh no she di'int. I told her she couldn't begin to call herself an otaku til she's atleast seen Cowboy Bebop which is arguably the greatest anime ever in practically a good portion of the internets opinion. She said she'd never heard of it and neither has her friend who is a bigger otaku than her.
now we're angrily setting up the netflix/amazon. Lets marathon this bio-tch. We gonna have to start with some Cowboy Bebop, then the movie which we have on the DVD..then some Samurai Champloo, maybe throw in some FLCL, Gundam F-ing Wing and Ive got Endless Waltz right here also on DVD...and we're gonna finish it off with some Last Exile because gurlfran don't know what good is.
/done
PS I'm not really that mean, this all occurred because I was buying her $80 worth of clothing that had the english flag on them.

Skip Naruto and Dragon Ball series, everyone knows those.

HERESY! How can you call yourself an otaku if you haven't sat through each and every episode of Dragonball?! None of that Dragonball Kai crap, either; all the filler and power-up episodes, too! >:O

This is watched on TV by the non combatant characters with blank stares on their faces.

we grew up with DBZ everyday after school..not because it was exactly the best show on television but..just because...
personally I get greater enjoyment out of DBZ abridged these days..it's way better than the original.

Kid on the bus that looked like Lucky Bob from Histeria! started yelling "Muthafucka I better make it home before Dragon Ball Z comes on!" Alot of people watched DBZ.

I went to a mostly black school from 6-9th grade..I was the only white kid I knew for a while...I remember sitting in art class and the "cool" kids would be copying/tracing dragonball z photos and being all like "n*gga look how good an artist I am" and I'd be thinking to myself "could you guys choose an uglier style to emulate?"
I never said anything because my locker was covered in sailor moon pictures..yeah..

Eh u remember when I was you g wanting to watch nothing but shows like Gundam and robotech, speed racer. Then in HS trying to join an anime club, when they asked me whic I've seen I listed a few good ones, like Black Magic M66, Nausicaa of the vally of the wind, and got the response of "oh those arn't anime, comeback when you have watched something real like dragonball..." *** tards only wanted members who seen ***that was on tv everyday.
Only reason I wanted to join it was they went to a few cons paid I. Full by one of the members parents a few times a year

I've always liked Dragonball for the games more than the shows. :I
The Futue Trunks/Android/Cell story was pretty kewl, though.
And Bardock is a badass character.

Got to episode 5 of Devil Survivor 2 last night. I actualy recommend this to people. For a anime based off a turn based strat RPG, it's well done.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
