I hereby declare Tales of Symphonia a good game... but not as good as Jak 3, because I cannot play Tales of Symphoina on my monitor like I can Jak 3. Therefore, I cannot pause and post in the forum like I can with Jak 3. This makes me a saaaad panda.
There used to be an image here telling you to vote, but then Photobucket, the image site made to allow you to do third party hosting, no longer allows third party hosting without throwing a shitload of money at them... and I can barely afford to eat. So no you get some text of me bitching about it, yaaay! Also, go vote.
Everyday I'm tumbl'n.

ToS seems okay, but a little overly complicated. There are certain parts where they could have done things easier.

What part are you at?

I just got Raine added into the party; in the desert. I started it today. Jak 3 I beat a few days ago.

Tales of Symphonia, COMPLICATED, Drek? How exactly is it complicated?

Well, the dark side ending for KotOR2 was disappointing... I didn't take over the galaxy or nuthin'... just panned the camera towards a nebula. Huzzah.

I feel like doing a bit of ranting. So I'm going to list a few things that I don't like about certain games and series and stuff.

All the wangst in the Megaman X series. Does anybody remeber when megaman was fun and bright. They loaded it down with deep issues and troubled characters and sucked the fun right out.

The current trend in Final Fantasy to make the game more movie than game. I want to play a game and see the stoy unfold. I don't want to sit down adnwatch a cut scene every three minutes.

The Anne Rice-ification of Castlevania. Forget tough heroes and crumbling castles. It's nothing but adrogenous prettyboys and over decorated goth styles now.

Taking perfectly good 2-D series and makiing them 3-D. Half the time it doesn't work. Here's an idea for game designers. if you make a good game, people will play it. It doesn't have to be in 3-D.

I don't mind that Capcok reuses sprites in their VS games, but some of those sprites are five or six years old. They NEED to be updated.

On the topic of fighting games, fighting games don't need complex plots. Can't people just show up for the contest to beat the crap out of each other.

Also, am I the only person who dislikes the Ancient army of evil gods storylines in the Mortal Kombat games? I liked the story of the first game. Evil Sorcerress had an extremely brutal and lethal fighting tournamanet.

Can we have a love intrest for the RPG heroes that isn't a white mage of some sort?

Personally, I think the vampires SHOULD be prettybois... they seem to be the vain type.

Belmonts should actually be men... or women, depending... not both.

Meh. I think that the game industry overall is just suffering from blandess. It's happened before, and it'll happen again. A game'll come along that'll freshing things up for a bit, then settle back into blandness. That's why I latch onto games I like. So I have stuff to get though the bland.

I agree with him on updating the Capcom sprites. Honestly, they're just getting lazy.

I wasn't talking about the vampires being prettyboys. I was talking about the Belmonst being prettyboys.

And for another of your points... didn't Sony actually say that, barring some extreme exception, they wouldn't release any 2-D games for their systems?

Yes. 2-D games don't sell well to the general public, who seem to like style over substance.

Yes. Which is why I no longer buy Sony products. Neither should you.

I only buy Sony for the RPGs. Even then, only if it's a realy good one.
