I'm replaying FFVII right now. My roommate bought it on his PS3 and had never played it so I thought I would maybe put some time in. Let's just say I've hogged the damn thing and put in 20 hours more than him lol. Awesome game.

Ok, so I did a little quick research on this.. So, you can buy FF7 online through the PS3's online thing, am I correct? Did they redo any part of it or just left it the way it was on PSOne?

Either way, that just inspired me even more to buy the PS3. My wife loves FFX, and I've always talked about as good as FFX was, FFVII was sooooo much better. She doesn't believe me because of the graphics. I'll have to prove it to her.

Yea my roommate bought it for $10 on his PS3. I personally own an Xbox 360. Console wars are bs to me though, different systems meet different peoples gaming styles but in the end they're all awesome.

FFX was awesome too though. I enjoyed FFIX as well but never got through FFVIII because my brother spilled on the 3rd disc.

FF8.. You aren't missing much. I heard it's horribad, and I couldn't stand it much, I didn't make it past the first 30 minutes of the game. I vaguely remember my friend playing FFIX.. I've been told that one's pretty good. I'll have to look into finding that when I get a PS3.

I enjoyed VIII, but like you said, that didn't last too long. Never made it far in that game.

The FF that I really dislike is XII. You have a great game which sells amazingly every single time. It's even good enough to lay the foundation for a MMORPG. Yet, for some reason, they go out and change the entire battle system into something that doesn't even look like a JRPG anymore.

Like I said in a previous post, try Lost odyssey. Amazing game, at least for the first 2 discs. And even that already justifies the buy.

I'll try to remember to look into Lost Odyssey when I get a chance.

And, any FF game past XI (you know, the MMORPG) I don't know a thing about. By the time FFXI came out, I stopped following anything on the consoles and went almost exclusively to PC gaming. I still have the original X-Box that I used for console gaming from when X-Box first was released (I sold my PS2/games for rent money many years ago).

It's Xbox 360 only, though. Going to be a decision between FF and LO in that case, I'm afraid.

That said, just take a look here . You'll see what I'm getting at soon enough.

FF VII top game of all time!

Anything by Bioware WINS.

I'm currently an iPhone junkie. Have found Zenonia and Dungeon Hunter to be pretty damn good RPG's for it. Now if they would just release an MTG app, I would be set.

I completely forgot about one RPG that I've been meaning to play for a long time - Paper Mario. I'm giving that a try tonight and if it seems like what I've been looking for I'll play through 'er. If not, I'll seriously consider giving FF7 a try (although my girlfriend, who forced me to play FF6/3 didn't really like it, so..). How quickly do you get a feel for FF7?

Wow, this thread. Actually found quite a few since I posted this one. All but one on steam. Check em out.


Last year or so:
Legend of Heroes - Trails in the Sky - Now one of my favorites. First part in a trilogy, english translation of second chapter comes out "this summer" (no official release date yet) and another game in the expanded universe this fall. Really excited.

Lords of Xulima - Different from most I've played. Fog of war indoors/outdoors (permanently visible once you've visited), doesn't really handhold you in the usual "Monsters/baddies you have access to will always be at a level where you can actually beat them" sense. Sometimes you need to bypass baddies until much later and find another route around. Not exceptional in any one way but all around rock solid.

Pillars of Eternity - Really well made, but it made me think of Oblivion and Skyrim which I burned out on. Obviously D&D inspired. Although after playing the game for 10-20 hours class balance issues become obvious. Even level 1 wizard spells do ridiculous AoE damage from low to high character levels, in almost all cases a party of wizards can destroy everything in front of it before anything melee has a chance to fight back.

Threw in Ys: The Oath in Felghana and Ys: Origin to boot. Nice change of pace for these two but not really my cup of tea. Worth a single playthrough though.

Wasteland 2 was really good although that's a turn based strategy RPG. What Fallout: Tactics should have been if it had good story in addition to good combat.

Space Rangers: HD was really good (although that's a 4X/RPG/RTS)

Played FF7 for about 30 minutes and lost interest. Will try again at some point. Maybe.

Previous years:
Romancing Sa-Ga (SNES) was alright.
Agarest:Generations of War - Ignoring the blatant "HEY LOOK ANIME CHICKS IN SKIMPY CLOTHING IN EVERY THIRD SCENE" barrage which got really old really quick, liked the story and combat system alright.

Child of Light - Worth a single playthrough, but wasted potential

Bastion - Alright. Worth a single playthrough. SuperGiant Games' have excellent soundtracks.

Dust: An Elysian Tail - Action-RPG. One of my top 5 or 10 games now.

Martha Careful (16h) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.
beast (17h) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.
Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.
Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th
Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st
Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm
Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.
beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.
beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."
beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less
beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.
Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.
Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”
Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though
TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes
Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face
Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.
dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that
dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.
Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!
packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold
Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
