Loving Dissidia. I've played as Cecil and Firion so far. I like them both, but they both have obvious weaknesses. Cecil has an amazing homing aerial attack as PLD that hits several times, and chains easily, but his damage attack is awkward, because the same button is used to shift jobs mid fight. Firion has several decent ground attacks, but I find his aerial wanting. His damage attack is good, assuming it hits... Gonna do either Squall or Cloud next I think... It's so nice to hear voices for all these characters. Gives them new life. I'm not very good at these sorta games, but I'm really enjoying it.  |

I didn't realise Dissidia was out so soon. I will pick it up when I get home. I have been curious about cause it brings a whole bunch of FF characters together in one game. But like Caller, I'm expecting cheesy Advent Children fighting. But, I trust you guys and if you say its good, I believe it. This will be a good addition to my Final Fantasy run for when I get back. Which will be continued with FF8 when I get back.  |

Yes, lots of aerial battles... it's almost entirely aerial... but, damn it's a lot of fun! I really, really like it. It's making me wanna replay all the FF games, but I sold FF7-9. I guess I could get em again for cheap, but... I do wanna play FF1-3 on Emulator now. So far, I love everything about the game, it's just awesome.  |

Just finished the storyline for Batman: Arkham Asylum. Awesome game! Now, I'm going to try and get some of the Riddler's riddles & such.
Also playing: Animal Crossing: City Folk, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Chrono Trigger DS, Professor Layton, and sometimes Mario Kart.
Oh and not too long till Scribblenaughts comes out! Can't wait!

I got back into KH2, I wanna beat it before 358/2 Days comes out. I'm back to Hollow Bastion so I'm halfway done. And speaking of, this is for Steph, Cloud and Aerith
Quality sucks but every other video dubs or silences Aerith (and you'll quickly learn why) so this is the only one I could find that didn't do that.
Still kinda disappointed she couldn't be challenged in the arena though. ...but then again I'd never win. <_<

Made the mistake of telling SOMEBODY that I'm sorta interested in playing KH now that I've played Dissidia. I didn't cringe as much as I thought I would with the FF7 stuff. Sephiroth is a smirky bastard, but Cloud is alright. I might have actually liked Sephiroth... if he didn't have the smart ass smirk on his face. Plus he's a PAIN to kill.  Actually, I'm happy with how all the characters were represented. Only thing that bothered me was they changed Gabranth's voice. I thought all the FFXII voice actors were perfect... hell I even squealed like a little fangirl when I saw they kept Balthier's voice in FFT. Haven't really played Dissidia much the past few days, currently more interested in Oblivion.  I'm enjoying Oblivion more than Morrowind. I don't feel like I'm unable to do the quests I've been given, unlike Morrowind. I've only had one rough patch, when I have to meet the Sponsor with Baurus... he died, I died, over and over... but I hit level 4 and was able to do it, and save him in the process. Bugs me when NPCs die. I've already had a few die on me.  |

Still fascinated by Oblivion. I have Saekeion, who's a level 10 Imperial Paladin type character, heavy armor, blades, charisma, and healing magics. I also have a new Breton man I just made. He's gonna be a mage type, because that's what they do best. Really enjoying this game. There's so much to do and see, it seems.

I liked Oblivion from the little I played.
The Beatles Rock Band is out on Weds. I will buy that for sure.

Been playing Dissidia a lot lately, trying to record a decent video and this is all I've gotten so far Any special requests? Been working on Firon, Kefka and Shantotto since I got Zidane to 100. |

Its so cool that it plays old 8bit songs. This truly looks like a FF fanboy spoogefest. And not just for fans of Cloud and Sephiroth and everything 7 but also fans of the retro games like myself. I will buy this. I started FF8. Not very far. Just became a SeeD after doing the Dollet mission and running from that giant spider robot. I really love this game. FF8 is so good. Tonight I will meet Rinoa and watch the dance scene. I love that part. I also bought The Beatles Rock Band. It is fun. The cinematics for the game are amazing. So psychedelic and trippy. Definatly a good purchase for me |

I'll try to record some more as I go along but Zidane is my favorite character so I use him mostly. The game is most definitely a fanboy spoogefest. But that's why it's awesome. It's not just a cheap cash-in like Castlevania Judgment was. This game actually had a significant amount of time and effort put in to make sure every little detail is exactly as it should be. I'm not gonna say it's perfect (damn camera sometimes gets caught) but it's exceptionally good. |

It looks to me like Dissidia is to Final Fantasy what Smash Bros. is to Nintendo. I will pick it up Friday. Are there unlockables? I love unloackables. Its what made Smash Bros. fun! I don't mind Tidus myself. I thought his relationship with his father was very realistic and well done. His annoyances come mainly in the localization imo. His clothes are also kinda goofy. |

TONS of unlockables. The shop is constantly updating, lots of items to create, lots of characters to unlock, alternate costumes to get, lots of extra modes to play...I'm up to about 50hrs and it still says I'm unlocking things. I'm uploading three more videos but it's gonna take awhile. <.< One I demand you all watch just because of what Kefka says to Firion... EDIT OK here we go. First one up is here only for an awesome line by Kefka (expect more from him soon). Firion vs. Kefka This one is to show how kickass Firion can be when I'm not playing him like I'm still playing Zidane...which is what happened in that Kefka video. <.< Firion vs. Jecht And finally an absolute perfect timing of a Brave Swap in my favor. Didn't cause me to win, but still cool. Firion vs. Ultimecia Not tonight, but the last deluge of videos I'll rain upon you all will be some Kefka and Shantotto ones, because Kefka is a 100% *perfect* representation of himself from VI, and I adore Shantotto and her ridiculous laugh. <.< |
