I have been playing FF7 and FF8 as non-fighting games. 80% through ff7(again) and just starged 8. I forgot how complcated the junction system in 8 is:rofl:
So does the PS2 version. And if it remotely resembles the one from the PS2 version, expect to see HEAVY censorship, blood-wise and even language-wise. :tdown:
Speaking of SFAC, Iāve started to play it again. Iāve decided to brush up on my skills. In both HSFII: AE and SFII: 3S. Can someone please tell me how it is possible for someone to own you with Balrog when they havenāt played SFII in a good while? Seriously, I think I was Ryu and I got owned hardcore by a Balrog player at my friends apt. Not only that but his Ken was beyond top tier. I gotta get better and fast.
manā¦xenosaga 2 is pretty tough
Hey dude whatās up? Hadnāt seen you around since the last Megaman thread to go beyond 10 pages. BTW thatās the best Megaman avatar ever!
Anyway yesterday I played some Bahamut Lagoon, going back and forth between the cartridge and then the translated rom to see what I had gotten myself into.
BTW guys,
THIS IS MY FINAL POST AS THE NAME "FAMICOM."
Iām kinda getting tired of this name. So Iām changing it.
alkdjfa
am i the only one who canāt think about anything other than tekken 5 and friday? this is like christmas almost. lol. iām sitting here checking up on tz.com every 5 seconds and gamestop to see if the ship date gets pushed forward.
friday is so far away. =/
How is Xenosaga 2 (1 thru 10) ?
right now itās not that bad, Iām only 6 hrs in (and probably only āREALLY playedā about 90 mins). Thereās a lot of bad reviews tho. My cousin said he beat the first disc in 15 hrs without doing the sidequestsā¦soooo.
7 right now, but iām not done.
revpersona: honestly I thought Arc the Lad ToS was TERRIBLE! One of the wrost RPGās Ive ever played. Im not even sure if I finished it or not. blehā¦
anyway update:
I am now about 5 hours into Xenosaga 2, and I am underwelmed to say the least. I already dont like the new look. But it also seems the story is suffering as well. The cut scenes are just bad. The dialogue is stilted and horrible. The personal scenes between the characters are badly directed and just come off as awkward. Also Shion seems have been turned into a childish bitch. the humor they have tried to insert into the scenes is also bad. Now its been a long time since i have played Xeno 1 but i dont remember the scenes being this terrible! I really dont! Tonight I am going to watch the opening scenes from Xeno 1 and see if its just me or if the directing really got worse.
So far the actual gameplay seems fine, very similar to the first game. Although I dont quite understand the zone breaks yet. However, I think this game has even more FMV and cutscenes than the first game. Right now Im only actually playing about 15 minutes out of every hour played. And Im in hour 5. Its really time for the game to stop dragging its feet and get moving. i was more forgiving for the first game since they had quite a bit to set up, but theres really no excuse at this point for only being able to play about an hour and a half out of 5 hours of gameplay. AND, this game is supposed to be quite a bit shorter than the first one.
Im a fan of the series, but so far Im really disappointed in this second installment, and I really hope I dont regret picking it up.
Still playing KOF 2002 specifically. On mission/challenge 36 of the one player Time Attack mode. Soon the Geese will be unleashed.
Hehe. I have the complete, original, uncensored version in a collection of SEGA games for PC. Also has both Vectorman games and Shining Force.
WTF, 7 hrs in, and Iām on 2nd disc of xenosaga 2ā¦
That shit is lame
youāre kidding???
7 hours in???
WTF?? why did they even bother with 2 discs??? I thought it was strange that they put this one on 2 discs when the first game was only one disc and quite a bit longerā¦
man it is not looking good for this game so far. very disappointingā¦
-AC
less than 7 hrs actually. Of course I didnt do the g2 shit and some other things, but if i knew it was gonna be this short i wouldāve actually spent some time in the damn city.
My cousin finished in 15 without doing any side thingsā¦so i think iām doing somethin wrongā¦but i dunno the fights were pretty tough but i was able to bea tthe final boss in disc 1 without dying so iām not weak.
Oh well, Iām hoping that disc 2 is longerā¦by a lot
Thanks for the comment about the avatar. As seen in my signature, OrangeCat made it.
Iām curious to what youāll change your name to though.
As for me, I havenāt been doing much. Outside of finishing 3rd quarter of my senior year in high school, I havenāt done much, including playing video games. Hell, I just started to āseriouslyā get back in SaFr last week.
Speaking of which:
I finally got the gift for Rune Magic by getting that Hide Rune underneath Koorong. It was extremely easy considering that Gen and Liza had been with me the whole time and the worms couldnāt level up with Quake because of the JetBoots; hell, the Unicorns outside were tougher for my āweakerā groups and I had Mei-Ling (my weakest character) and Lute (my second weakest human character) in the Boss fight.
After that, I want back to Shrike, screwed around a bit with enemies, then I beat up on Death Lord Sei, and got screwed out of Kusanagi for my monster when I got Deathsynthesis ( :lame: ) for the umpteenth time. It didnāt matter all that much, since just took Kusanagi the sword instead.
I then rested and Gated to Shingrow, I spent about five hours yesterday trying to get LogicBomb as well as Master Rune Magic with Blue. Well, the latter happened extremely quickly because I bought all the āweakerā Rune Magics (Victory, the godly Vitality, the seldom-used Freedom, and the useless Hide), which allowed him to learned Dwarf, Wall, Soul, and Stasis extremely quickly; funny how, the more I think about it, of the learnable magics with gifts, Rune seems decidedly the worst, especially since the Ulimate Rune, Stasis, is completely worthless without Overdrive and SnakeOil.
Anyway, the former was decidedly more of bitch and the reason why I spent such an amount of time yesterday getting into only fights for all of those five-plus hours. Fun.
Especially since EngineerCar got about ten different techs right off the bat, which I wouldnāt be complaining about at all (hell, it learned Solider Shock(!), then PopKnight(!!), and then Intercept Missile(!? the first time I ever got it, it seemed as if it was a damned overpowered counterattack from what I saw yesterday) if T206 had learned nearly as much. The irony is that T206 learned LogicBomb on about the second or third thing that it finally absorbed (having only absorbed Dodge Laser and maybe something else before :rolleyes: )ā¦and now EC ārefusesā to learn it.
Gah. This is not helping considering that R&Rs and Dullahans are now regular enemies, which somewhat āforcedā me to go back to Shrike.
Soā¦Iām back in Shrike and I rested at the free inn, even though I now have so much money that I have too much to do the āinfiniteā gold trick unless I bleed it off. I suppose that I do need better armor, since Iāve only been replacing my crappy beginning materials with stuff that I won in battle or found, but itās just annoying to have to Gate to extra places.
Meh. A sign that she is indeed āoverpoweredā for an easily obtainable, non-āuniqueā character, Liza has practically fist-fighting techinques already while Gen still hasnāt learned Haze-to-Wheel. :rolleyes:
My PS2 is so useless these days (nothing but DRE after DRE). I plan on trying out the repair method for it here, but I wonāt be able to do it until I head back for the break.
Picked up Gran Turismo 4 today and currently going through the license tests. When you fail a test Yelloās āOh Yeahā plays on the āYou Failā screen. I find that hilarious.
OK so I lied about it being my final postā¦
Iām changed my name to āEX Sucker Punchā.
Now the biggest bitch is activating it. For some godawful reason, just after I register this new name, it says it sent me an e-mail to activate it, but I keep going back and forth and thereās still no e-mail. I even tried making several other e-mail addresses and still empty inbox. I wonder why. Do new handles have a waiting list now>?
Playing PSO still. Got Fate to Lv. 135, and finally got my 4-slot Guard Wave (thank you, Million and your dupe trick :tup: ) so now nothing can lay a finger on me offline. Iāve been trying to pipe Love Rappy on Temple for some Twin Psychoguns (about the only thing Purplenum ID is good for) but so far, no dice. Well, Iāll keep trying.
Playing SoR, XS2 and Fifa Street. FS isnāt bad actually better than v3 and NFL
