Your brother is an evil person and must be destroyed.

Oh, and while we're talking about it, am I the only person that sees any resemblance between Magus and Voltron's Prince Lotor?

More along the lines of generic dark elf type.

And the art style for the animated cutscenes in the PS version of CT (the one I was forced to play through, since I lost my om-ray save in the great computer format of '02...) made me cringe.

Even lords of darkness sometimes have to take a second job. It was either fighting the pansies of the Voltron crew or manning the QuickieMart.

At least it got him mentioned by the Wu-Tang Clan. Any press is good press.

If you make his hair blue, and his skin white-ish, then I could see it.

As far as Akira Toriyama goes, he's been doing the Character/Monster design for Dragon Quest/Warrior since pretty much the beginning. This is no different.

He does Ok monster design, but his character design REALLY needs some variation.

So I played the Final Fantasy XII demo recently at a Gamestop...

*Cries*

Damn you Squaresoft, what the fuck is wrong with you?! Why don't you love your fans anymore?! Haven't we been loyal?! Haven't we bought your crap, no matter how utterly dog-shit bad it was?! Chocobo's Dungeon 2? Utter crap, but it's on my shelf! I bought the Final Fantasy Legend games for the Gameboy, even though they aren't really Final Fantasy at all! I own an unopened copy of FF X-2 (Plastic wrapper and everything), just to complete my collection, even though I knew before getting it it was utter shit!

But this... This is unplayable. This is intolerable. Even possessing this game would, by meer proximity to my other games on the shelf, make them shittier. I would need to keep this thing in a lead box so the meer aura of crap wouldn't ruin all my games. Congratulations, Squaresoft, you have taken the titan of gaming, the pinnacle, nay, seat of your power, and broken by your own hand. You have taken an invincible game series, and utterly shattered it.

I hope every person responsible for this atrocity rots in Hell, or there is no justice in the world.

It was that bad. It was misreably bad. Playing it made me feel dirtier for the experience, an unholy filth that wouldn't scrub off. It was like the worst aspects of an MMORPG and the worst aspects of Final Fantasy were fused into some hideous mass of pure bad.

That sounds pretty bad.

See, FZ's comments are why I've been saying Kingdom Hearts is Square's only decent active seires right now.

Speaking of which, Riku IV in Chain of Memories is a bitch.

Yes, yes he is.

I personally, hated Captain Hook with a burning passion. He was harder than Riku IV IMO.

My Advice: Stock a load of 0 cards somewhere you can quickly scroll to them and cancel out and tricks he plays. If you can avoid them, then you just need to gradually do the necessary damage.

My (and therefore better :P ) advice: Go back to Neverland and get the Pirate card. It turns all of your cards into zeros until you reload.

You can't avoid them here either. I was fighting this T-Rex thing at the end of the "Mission", and every time it was ready to attack, it would whip around at lightning speed to take a bite out of me. I was even doing my best to run around and stay at the sides so it's jaws and tail (It's two methods of attack) were as far away as possible.

It's like an MMORPG, except really, really damn slow. 75% of the battle is your AI teammates and you dancing around a creature, looking like idiots, while you wait for your bar to slowly re-charge. Magic runs out faster then is usually seems to, and while it re-charges, it does it so so slowly as to make the atrocious CoH recharge times seem lightning fast in comparison.

The only redeeming moment was the moment when I saw the T-rex attack a neutral monster that was in between my group and it. That was kind of neat.

Except that leave you totally screwed until you actually do reload. Riku is very good at card-breaks. Don't try it.

I played FFXI, and you could block attacks with a shield.
