PLEASE drop this. Every time I try to make a solid opinion about something I have the entire board telling me I'm wrong. I was perfectly happy letting this one go, can we not dredge it back up?

SoA? What's that?

EDIT: Sorry, guys. I just don't like being the enemy of the entire board.

SoA = Skies of Arcadia. It's really good. I just bought it last week and I've been playing it like an addict.

T'sokay. We all get everyone else angry some time or another. We gamertype geeks tend to be sensitive about favorite systems, 'sall.

Edit: Loved that game.

Hey, I'm not saying the PS2 has nothing good. The RPG selection's decent, what with Star Ocean, Suikoden and the .hack stuff (the FF games released for PS2 were extremely weak compared to the PS1 and SNES games however), and GTA's stuff is good (even though graphically they haven't improved much over the three games) I'm just saying don't knock GC with unfounded arguments without looking at the statistics first.

EDIT: Sorry, I got carried away. So how about that Skies of Arcadia? I love that game.

I don't know, man. SoA just pwns. One thing that always bothers me, though, is the MoonStone Cannon. If it can do many twenties of thousands of damage, why can't you just use it to OHKO land bosses?

Because then the game would be too easy/too hard to target puny land bosses from above like that.

Fine. I'll never talk about consoles again. I'm a stupid retard. The message is sent.

No, you merely have brand loyalty. Nothing to be ashamed of.

I already apologised for getting carried away, Terra. I'm just a defensive Nintendo fanboy is all. :P

One thing that bugged me about Skies was the enemies were too frequent. And it sometimes took ages for them to get to their target to attack. That, and you CANNOT run away if you want to do all the Black Pirate bosses. Anyone who doesn't like the "In dire need" attack (I forgot the name) is WRONG, however. That, and Gilder.

I never even said I loved the PS2. That's the way the argument went. And while I do enjoy the PS2, it's not my favorite console. I am an X-box fangirl. That's right, X-BOX, of the evil Microsoft corporation. Y'all may tear into me now, because I've stopped caring. I love the console's features, I love the controller (once you get used to it, it really is better than the others, in my opinion), I love the built in memory card, I love the games (y'all may say that there's nothing for X-box that isn't for the others, and to that, I say Morrowind), and I love the basic look of the thing. So tear at me as you will for my opinion, I don't care anymore.

Good. It doesn't really matter what we say, as long as you do and think what you know to be right.

Baron'd.

But don't y'all come crying to me when your X-box comes to life and kills your family and starts to brainwash you to obey the will of Gates! I know its gonna happen eventualy! ::is dragged off by the men in white coats::

Actually, I found that once I used the XBOX for a while playing the only game on it that I'm really interersted in (Morrowind) it was very comfortable. And yes, this was using the massive controllers, not the newer, smaller ones.

I've also played on the Gamecube, mostly SSBM, and I *really* like that game.

But my favorite console is the PS2, because to be blunt the best RPGs are released for that system (generally).

I can't stand random bias against such a stupid thing as CONSOLE PREFERENCE. So stop it, all of you. Terra, it's been mostly dropped, you can stop being offended any time now, and Lurky, not everyone appreciates the fanboyism.

Don't worry, Terra, I won't rag you for liking the X-Box. Hell, I've never even played it, so I'd just look like a dumbass.

But yes, Gilder does pwn.

Edit: y helo thar, Baron!

Thank you.

EDIT: And sorry for going on. I got offended by being told my opinion was brand loyalty when my opinion is Microsoft's console. >_> I think anyone would.
