  1. I guess that all of this doesn't really matter either way for me. I'm sure people either have bought computers with Windows XP already installed, or have the Windows XP Installation Disc somewhere back in their closets if they ever need to use it again.
  2. I heard that there are generally no games for the 3DO, except for popular multi-platform games that are better in different terms on this system rather than others.
  3. You should be able to skip a cut scene by pressing start then pressing X.
  4. I know, I would had posted more but the putrid smell from the game kept me from elaborating on anything else, the game sucks so hard it makes my review shorter. :/
  5. It's shorter than my normal reviews, but since I've been the only one posting reviews in the last two months, this is an exception. This review also wasn't even planned, as you can see in the Review thread, this game was not on my list of games to review in the future.
  6. Published by: Square Enix Developed by: Square Enix Release Date: JPN: January 26, 2006 NA: August 15, 2006 PAL: November 17, 2006 Number of Players: 1 Genre: Action Dirge of Cerberus is a Final Fantasy VII spin-off video game that bases itself around Vincent Valentine. The plot of the game doesn’t really make any sense so it isn’t really worth mentioning. Vincent Valentine didn’t even really play a large role in Final Fantasy VII, his fan base is somewhat obsolete and he isn’t a very popular character. So throughout the game, you will not feel any different on the fact that you are playing with Vincent, it feels like a broken and dull third person shooter. You have one basic melee attack combo in the beginning of the game, the melee combos do less damage than guns do of course, which is a reason why it’s never used. The animations in the jumping and the attacks have barely any emphasis on them and a majority of all enemies consist of super soldiers that wield guns. All they do is shoot guns and they basically never attack you physically. The bosses consist of, different vehicles, monsters, and large soldiers. There is really no way to become a strategist in this game. With it being a third person shooter, it doesn’t contain elements true to that genre. For example, you cannot back up against a wall, or any surface for that matter, and look around the corner. All you have is zoom, and auto target. You can shoot while in motion and your weapons can be upgraded. You have a health bar and a mako energy bar. The mako energy is present to use materia. You can implement materia into guns, and can shoot thunder and fire blasts through the gun, just to name a few. After each mission is completed, you have the choice to convert your points from your mission achievements into experience points, or gil. You need gil to buy items that replenish your health, the basic assist items, and then you are able to buy ammo for weapons and upgrade different weapons on various terms. When you level up, your health increases as well as other unmentionable attributes. Upgrading weapons is a priority in this game, because you will be using them, all of the time. There aren’t any stellar swords or combat weapons, just guns, and guns only, except from the Cerberus transformation. Each weapon is basically fully customizable, down to if you would prefer for the weapon to have a Super Scope, or a longer gage. The game gets ultimately repetitive after the first mission. Some missions are extremely tedious and frustrating, and will have you asking yourself questions like, “What were they thinking?”, and, “Who thought this mission would be a good idea?” You will be persistently bombarded with undesirable cut scenes, throughout missions and they randomly pop up and generally aren’t needed. This shows that Square-Enix should stick to making turn based RPGs, because this game is far down the totem pole. It doesn’t touch games like Gears of War, Resident Evil or Killswitch. Do yourself and favor and don’t buy this game, don’t rent it even if you are a Final Fantasy fanboy, because this game has nothing to offer except excellent music. Graphics: 8 Gameplay: 6 Presentation: 7 Sound: 7 Overall: 7 (D)
  7. I've played Final Fantasy III, VII, DoCVII, VIII, X, XI, IX, and X-2. Although I haven't completed some of those. My favorite out of all of the ones I've played would have to be Final Fantasy X. I remember borrowing the game from one of my buddies in High School, and man was that game a great experience. It's probably the only Final Fantasy game I've played on a real console. The story had a nice ring to it, although I hated the entire Blitzball sport, I thought it was trash. Although the voice acting was top notch, the graphics were crisp, and the leveling system was something new, and it was something I enjoyed. I enjoyed the twists and turns in the story mostly, and the characters had the most unique attire.
  8. New Gameplay http://www.gametrailers.com/player/35639.html
  9. Do you think that the graphics of the PSP actually look better than Dreamcast graphics?
  10. Does anyone think that a next-gen Jet Set Radio video game should come?
  11. People are supposed to be focusing on the rode and not on someone else's tag.
  12. Father goes back to Target: Ma'am, I'm looking to turn a Wii back in for a refund. Women at register: Oh what's wrong? Father: Ah, nothing major, son killed himself.
  13. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10...nt-new-Wii.html
  14. I don't know about Curt Swan, I mean, Superman's muscles have little to no detail at all.
  15. This is basically all that matters, thanks for the link FT. GS: Have you made any more headway on the fatality versus finishing moves?
  16. In the exclusive interview with Ed Boon, he said that the fatalities would not be gruesome, which somewhat indicates that there will be no fatalities. He mentioned something about them just being brutal, and with the game being rated T for Teen, brutal doesn't sound very intriguing I say.
  17. I have skill at passing off different urges to masterbate, the feeling goes away once I do something else.
  18. Dumb. When is the Wii going to get some good third party games?
  19. Now all we need is a Killer Instinct update.........
