Crisis Core - Broli - 12-22-2006
Is anyone as psyched about this game as I am? I'm seriously leaning on buying a PSP just for this game and possibly MGS: Portable Ops.
Here's the most recent trailer for the game. Let me know your impressions.

If it was on a console, I'd be pretty psyched. On a handheld, though, I'm not really all that impressed.
Crisis Core - Saz - 12-22-2006
Whoa, that's a psp game? It looks amazing. I think I've heard of it before, I was under the impression it was just going to be a remake of the FF7, looks like I was way off.
Anyway I'm definately gonna get it, anyone know the european release date? No doubt it'll be months after the US and Japan... =/

I love my PSP. It's awesome.

Well my wife owns the PSP, but i told her that once Crisis Core comes out, she won't see that damn thing again until I beat the game... she got sad, but the truth hurts.

The graphics are nothing new to me, and the few seconds of actual in-game stuff they showed looked pretty much what I'd expect from the PSP. The story though, looks damn interesting. If anything will sell me a PSP, it's this.
Whilst we're on the topic, I hate that they waited so long to do all this FF7 'expansion' shit. Nowadays FF7-loving has become 'uncool' and jaded - and, to be honest, even though I was a massive FF7 fan when it was released, it's hard to recall the events of a game I played nearly 10 years ago. I had to keep stopping to remember shit while watching Advent Children.

=\ I don't want to play the game, it'll just make me sad to see Zack die. ='(

They need to stop after this with the FFVII, and switch to FFX for, like, ever. I refuse to take FFX-2 while VII gets Advent Children. The way I see it, FFVII is the second worst FF I've played so far, ahead of X-2, but behind VI, VIII, IX, and X.

Wow.
Crisis Core - Zarbon - 12-23-2006
Actually, a lot of people perfer FFs over FFVII. It's not that much of a shocker. I've seen tons of polls where other FFs outclass it. Most of the time it turns out as FFVI. However, everyone has their own unique tastes. To a lot, FFVII didn't seem to fit the FF style, so that's an added bit.
Krill, what's your favorite FF?
Crisis Core - Broli - 12-23-2006
I was moreso surprised that it was the second worst one he's played, unless you're agreeing with him that a lot of people feel the same way. If that's the case, I'm going to have to disagree, unless you can provide to me some hard evidence.
Crisis Core - Krillin - 12-23-2006
By "worst", I don't mean that FFVII was bad, by any means. It was fantastic. I do feel, however, that it was outclassed by VI, VIII, IX, and X.
FFX is my favorite, by far. To me, it's a perfect game. We call FFX a 10, Big Rigs a 1, and we judge the rating scales from there.
VI - Nostalgia, extreme. There are so many things to find, so man wonderful places to search. Rated above VII and X-2, but below each of the others.
VIII - Fantastic. I hated it originally, but once I got into it, I was addicted. The Junction system is downright gorgeous.
IX - Other than FFX, the most stylistic and intriguing world created. To me, this is true fantasy. Quirky characters, an interesting world that parallels our own, with distinct and major differences.
X - Beautiful. The story is still my favorite story out of anything, ever. Better than any novel, mythology, roleplay, poem, ANYTHING that I've ever read. That alone is enough to launch it to the top, but combined with a stellar "cast" of fascinating characters, a great musical score (with beauties like 'To Zanarkand', 'Suteki Da Ne', 'Via Purifico', and 'Thunder Plains'), and the best mini-game out of any FF to date: Blitzball. This game is Art, distilled.

Have you played XII yet?
I'm getting it for Christmas. I've heard it's incredible.
Crisis Core - Krillin - 12-23-2006
I haven't.
I'll get it next summer.
I've heard it's lackluster compared to the other FFs.
Crisis Core - Zarbon - 12-23-2006
I'll play it. Give some opinions out. VI, personally, has always been my fav.
Crisis Core - Krillin - 12-23-2006
I'm not the kind of gamer that gives nostalgia/"classic-ness" too much weight. When it comes down to it, I'd rather play Ratchet: Deadlocked for hours and hours, rather than run through Super Mario Bros.
Crisis Core - Zarbon - 12-23-2006
What I like depends on the game, not the release date.

If it goes to console...i'd probably be jumping up and down like a 18 year old catholic school girl who just took six shots of vodka...mmm vodka.
Still looks good even for a handheld/psp.

I hate Squaresoft.
Every conversation about video games ends up being about Final Fantasy because of them. Bastards.
