      time and eternity looks beautiful but I am really sceptical about it, I've heard some pretty mixed opinions at best on it from the Japanese launch but I can't help but be intrigued by it despite knowing it will likely flop. I'm not interested in disgaea D2 seeing as I still haven't got that far in 4 but the guided fate paradox looks very interesting and is another nis game I'm going to look out for. A bit unrelated but what happened to NIS's the witch and the hundred knights?

      Great. I wasn't interested in this at all until I played the demo. Now this review comes out telling me I have to get this. I'm still god only knows where in Xenogears! Between work, my social life and other hobbies....I'm going to have to learn to game in my sleep.

      Besides some of those already mentioned two of my favorites are Suikoden III and Lost Odyssey. I keep hearing how great Suikoden II was, but I missed that one. Hear that PSN!

      Really hyped for this. This article reinforces my faith in it :D Tolerated FFXIII, loved FFXIII-2 and i'm sure i'm going to have a blast with this. Combats looking pretty damn tight, loving the idea of free movement, don't think turned based would work anymore unless they do something like..new with that system >.> customization seems cool too. I personally like the clock countdown as well, though i'm assuming they're going to implement it in a way that isn't frustrating like losing a lot of ingame time over nothing. Hoping for a good day/night cycle as well like in Xenoblade. With 4 completely different continents with different scenery i feel like they could do some neat stuff. I just hope it lives up to what has been said here and that people give it a chance.

      You're not the only one. Like i've said, if the same core game had been announced as a new game, I would be definitely interested. The fact that it instead focuses in a world I already don't care about kinda kills any interest I could potentially have had for it.

      I'm surprised in regard to innovation y'all didn't mention techs like Lucca's flame toss or Chrono's cyclone that factor in linear alignment or proximity in determining what targets can/will be hit by them.

      FF7's pretty overrated. Don't get me wrong, I love it too, but it definitely isn't the best of the entire series. For my favorites, I'd probably say... IX, IV, and then X.

      It has to be VIII. (Unpopular vote, I know) But I love playing it. I could start over, and spend hours, days, just running around and drawing, playing Triple Triad. My only complaint would have to be the splitting up.. 'cause I wasn't too fond of Irvine, Selphie or Quistis, but as long as I had the others, I was having a blast. I thought the Junction thing was pretty sweet, and the theme of final fantasy, 'Love, War, and Betrayal,' was most obvious. I agree, it got a little weird sometimes, with the whole .. Ellone, Laguna, Sorceress thing. But I've played the others, and I'd still go back to VIII. So many memories ~ I play it over and over again. I liked VIII's fighting style, but VII had an interesting story. With all the side town visits.. maybe it's all the attention Cloud gets that puts it off for me? But now if we could just combine the two.. xDD Ah, but X and XII were great too. Especially XII. Why is it always left out? And dissidia! Oh god, all the Final Fantasy! xD I love them all~!

      What's next? Listing all the platformer / adventure games that you have to jump in? Or that has a funny / clumsy / weird sidekick? Those are cliches but it's kind of what you expect when you buy the next ratchet / mario / jak / rayman or am I missing something? As I typed that I thought of a little game, if you put a black bar over the title of a FPS how many people would be able to tell wich game it is, cause those are insanely identical.
