What do you think was RPG of last year on a console? Personally, I thought for what Kingdom Hearts brought, it deserved to be considered... Compared to a lot of stuff. Yes, I restrict it to console, because I don't think consoles games should be put into the same category as computer games, but that's a whole different beast. Ok my top 5. 1) Arc The Lad: The Collection. Four games, a worthy story (that was if you kill of 3 and never consider Arc 4) and a lot of stuff to do. Although this finally got a US release date and technically should be thought of seperately, I thought it was the whole package. Comedy, funny stuff, sad parts, and just outrageous. It had a lot and then some. 2) Kingdom Hearts - This gets second place due to the fact that the menu system was awkward and detracted from the play. That and well, it really didn't do anything to answer a lot of questions. 3) Legaia 2 - Although it was pretty much bland on the story (as in, been there and done that) it was balanced out with it's fighting system (although, it got a little button mashy) and just overall achieved wellness. 4) Wild Arms 3 - gets fourth on my list of a top 5. It's a little drawn out (in my opinion) compared to 1 or 2, but the story definitely is better than 2. My only complaint is that lvling still is a pain in the arse as it never seems like you lvl up (as you are more dependant on getting your ARMs built up). 5) Tactics Orge: Knight Of Lodis - The beginning of the Tactics Orge series kicks off with a good start. Although, it's not as story heavy as many RPGs out there, it's still pretty darn good. Honorable Mention: Mega Man Battle Network 2 AS for Grandia Xtreme being on someone's list at all is a shocker to me. Can you please tell me how this "genius battle system" is any better than say, Grandia 2? Since it was THAT just add a few details here and there. There was no difference. Music though, was good, but if you had to back trail to get eggs, it got repeditive fast.

Apologize is spelt apologise? In Canadian English? You mean I've been writing that word wrong for God knows how long? And none of my English teachers have ever corrected me on it. ...damn. You'll have to accept my apologizes in getting it wrong.

Uh, how exactly? I was quite satisfied with what I got. Considering it was made by Disney as well, I was expecting crap since that's what most of their games are. And considering SquareEnix has been kinda slacking off (well, only the Square side, Enix really doesn't do too much NA side) and some of the games seem half assed. I was quite happy that Kingdom Hearts was a good game.

Dammit... A TSM get together... I so wanna go! Too bad I'm all the way on the freaking west side of MY country. ...dammit. Oh well, I'll get to see you guys having fun at least.

Been reported already.

Oh I KNOW so.... Hehehehehehehehe.... What? I do too.

Crimson Storm vs. Field Of Honor THE TALE OF THE STORY~! Field Of Honor: Advantages - Doesn't suck. Disadvantages - Rocks it hard. Chances of Winning - Only God or Satan could give him a loss. Crimson Storm Advantages - Had God intervine and brough Bledsoe into negative points last week. He'll need God's timely preformance once again to intervine and just create havoc to Field of Honor Disadvantages - God usually only preforms miracles only once. Chances of Winning - Is there even a chance? And that's the story of the match up of Field of Honor vs. Crimson Storm, who are so appropiately named "Crimson Storm" as the team is just a oozing pile of injuries and nothingness.

You can't use my Felicia avatar. She's my kittigal...

Popick if you get YOUR 2000 posts back, I want my 1500 that were taken away from me. Since neither will happen, BLAH! As for you saving the boards, meh... You're yesterday's news. Banky most recently saved the boards.

*sighs* I get no luck... I so wanted Tactics Orge in all it's glory...

*sighs* Here. Read this then. So I'm mistaken on it being called King of Fighters 2003. Yet it'll be out on the PS2 sometime next year.

Just read on Gamespot that FFXII will be out in Japan November 19th this year. Meaning the game has been worked on for a hell of a long time. Weirder yet, from the looks of www.ff12.com, and watch the video, it's clearly a technology bound world. Which brings to question: how much old fashioned fantasy will there be in this one? Edit: To those of you who love King Of Fighters, you'll get a new game. SNK says they've got one in production. It'll be King of Fighters 2003

Dear Diary, Somehow I'm popular here, yet I don't know what I did to achieve that. Of course I'm thankful, but I always wonder how that came to be. Later Times, ~Dor

Wow... Simple, but geez, if I had some money and a credit card, I'd probably buy one.

My vote goes for Hamilton Tigercats of the CFL (hey, Canada is NORTH AMERICA). Seriously, the Ti-cats have an absolutely stellar team. If they got their shit together and actually played. They've blown everything single game except one (and that was just, eck of a game) and really have just been atrocious to the point that it's amazing the team can even play. If we are going currently, then unless the Cardinals do something truly idiotic and have played like absolutely SHIT, then yes, they'll get my vote. For now, it's Hamilton.

...he didn't even TRY to be someone else? Wow. *thinks* Wait... I didn't do that either. Nevermind.

I'm not being a lazy ass today. Oh and just so you know the system: A < B. A over B; A > B. B over A. Got it? Good. If you didn't get the above, whomever the arrow (>) points to, is the person I vote for. Ripper > Banky Incandenza < FrozenBlockOfPissReborn Kotz > Anglesault The New Me < Dr. Tom Corey Lazarus < LaParkaYourCar Downhome < DangerousA Youth N Asia > CobainWasMurdered Jhawk > Zack Malibu

Dear Diary, Well, my health really bites. October 16th and 20th are when I got in for my MRIs to my neck and right knee. Hopefully, all goes well. Only thing that worries me is that any MRI can take a while to get. As with my knee it took a whole year almost to get it (and I've been waiting 7 to get the MRI) and my neck only took a two months. I think my neck's screwed up. Well, considering I was having problems with my movement yesterday, I'd say so. ~Dor

^ can't shut up when DA DAMES~! tells ^ too.

I bet Rock said that just to piss the hell out of Hunter. I so bet it. Besides, he's also gotta entertain and shit, so I don't think it's his ego... At least I hope not.

Well your welcome. They aren't mine (I don't remember whose though), but happy you have them.

Ok. Onto MMX:CM. If it's turn based, it'll impliment ATB. What Final Fantasy is known for. That isn't TOO bad, but yah, I know what you mean. Excuse me, but um, to the doubters of Mega Man as an RPG, may I point out that Mega Man Battle Network IS an RPG (by much a fluke of luck, still though). And it's very well liked, so maybe we'll get lucky and it actually is good. At least with an RPG, a Mega Man story will get a little fleshed out. As for Kingdom Hearts battle system, it actually had it all. If you were great at dodging and countering, you could be underleveled and still kick ass. If you wanted to tank it, just needed to make at the beginning of the game you put Defense as your priority. Only downfall of the battle system was the menu (which I bet they keep). As for the side story, it would only make sense if it was the story of the Wutai vs. Midgar really. We'd find out a little more history. And if you did that, you'd have to find out more about the Turks (who originally were founded during that time). I think. Still though, that side story is probably the movie. Just someone was given misinformation about it. And about the only way I'd buy that movie is if we got the final battle of Sephiroth vs. Cloud. No, not that cheap ass do Omnislash and over, but a TRUE final battle. The judgement of humans. That's what I always took that as. Sephiroth wins, we all die; Cloud wins, the world let's you live, but you've been warned. Then we carry on from that would be worth the purchase. ...however, it'll never go stateside.

For Week 4: Bills. Oh yah. I'm taking CHANCES PEOPLE~!

Huh, I said carry through with it. I knew the chances with Holcomb, and I knew the chances with Morris. Basically, I fucked up on both. Hence, I should get stuck with both.
