*raises hand* And 255 in everything else, except Evasion. Of course, Luck kind of overrides Accuracy, Evasion, and Critical hits in this game so once you have 255 luck, you don't need 255 eva and acc. I have a master stat save, but I started a no-sphere grid game. I put FFX down a while ago, though, and haven't got around to finishing it.

I have this game. I even wrote a strategy guide for it! It's a great game, but I missed the Arena and Mail options from Armored Core 2. If you're talking about the NIGHT energy sniper rifle, then I'd have to agree with you. Of course, the KARASAWA-MK2 will always be the best, but most people consider it cheap b/c it's too powerful. And the Back-mounted dual-gatling guns are the most destructive weapons in the game. I used them against Ultimate Nine Ball and totally destroyed him. They're even better against normal AC's b/c of the heating factor. :D

Yeah, there's an RPG Maker for Playstation. RPG Maker 2 is supposed to be coming out this year for Playstation 2. I have RPG Maker. You need to use [b]switches[/b] to prevent an event from occuring again. For example, set it up like this: . Message: "I'm gonna kill you." (or whatever) . Battle: Condition: fight until over . Message: (whatever) . Switch # (whatever number you choose, I'll say 1) 1 ON Then set the page condition to Switch #1 OFF. The events on this page will never occur again because Switch #1 will always be on (unless you manually turn it off again in a later event), and the criteria that must be met for this page to activate is that Switch #1 is not turned on. If that didn't make sense, try gamefaqs for in-depth info.

I recommend Breath of Fire IV for the Playstation. Good story, easy combo system, and cool characters. I enjoyed it very much.

I love Kingdom Hearts. I got it this Christmas. I thought it was going to be too short, but my clock is at 40 hours. Of course, I'm leveling up and doing all of the sidequests but it's been a great experience. My only gripe is that the characters you can use in the different worlds are only available to you while you're in that specific world (i.e. you can only use Peter Pan in Neverland). I'm not a huge fan of Goofy but and eject him from my party whenever I get the chance. Other than that, this game is excellent. I love Action/RPG's! I wish there were more. :bawl:

Valkyrie Profile is a refreshing change from a lot of other RPG's out there. I thought the story was kinda iffy...it didn't seem to have enough substance for me and was confusing sometimes. But the gameplay is where this game really stands out. The battle system was perfect, and the game's *MANY* dungeons are [i]challenging[/i], unlike another popular RPG out there *FF, cough*. Not that I hate Final Fantasy, but their games are getting a little too easy to appeal to the mass market. This game is all about Seraphic Gate.:D

[color=blue][size=1]Quina can learn Lv. 5 Death from Eating the undead whales on the shores of the northern most continent (can't remember if it's "Lost" or "Forgotten"--it's icy). Auto-Haste can be taught from the "Running Shoes" accessory.[/size][/color]

[color=blue][size=1]If I were you, I'd give Zidane or Steiner [b]Alert[/b] ability, so you're protected against back-attacks and then have Zidane use [b]Flee[/b] all the way back to the entrance of Memoria. Get back on your ship, find a town and heal and save. Then, I'd go to Deguarrio (sp.) and fight Grand Dragons for Exp. and Gil. Level up your 4 best characters to level 50 (takes about 15 min. even at level 30 if you have [b]Level Up[/b] ability on characters. Quina can instant-kill Grand Dragons using its [b]Level 5 Death[/b] Blue Magic (Grand Dragons are level 60). You can steal Tents and Ethers from Grand Dragons, too. Make sure you purchase some healing items before venturing out again.[/size][/color]

[color=blue][size=1]I hope you're all aware that Wing Attack [i]on Dragonite[/i] (or any other Flying type for that matter) does more damage than Hyper Beam over 2 turns. [b]Hyper Beam [/b] ATK: 150 | ACC: 90% | PP: 5 | TYPE: Normal | 2 Turn Move [b]Wing Attack [/b]ATK: 60 | ACC: 100% | PP: 30 | TYPE: Flying | 1 Turn Move Over two turns on Dragonite, Hyper Beam's cumulative strength is 150. Over two turns on Dragonite, Wing Attack only does 120 damage ( 60 X 2 ), [b]BUT[/b] Dragonite gets STAB* on Wing Attack b/c Dragonite is a Flying type and Wing Attack is a Flying move. [b]Add the STAB property to Wing Attack and Wing Attack's cumulative damage over two turns is 180--30 points higher than Hyper Beam.[/b] ................................................. * [b]S[/b]ame [b]T[/b]ype [b]A[/b]ttack [b]B[/b]onus All Pokemon who use an attack of their own type receive a damage X 1.5 bonus. Ex. Blastoise (Water) receives STAB when using Surf, Water Gun, or other Water moves. Blastoise will not recieve STAB when using a move that is not of the Water type b/c Blastoise is a water type.[/size][/color]

[color=blue][size=1]Hoshigami: Blue Earth Rising or something? I've heard of it, but never played it. Exactly how similar is it to FFT (which I also think is great)? If you really want a game as good (if not better) as FFT, try Tactics Ogre for the PSX. The same development team that worked on FFT worked on it (Quest), and they're extremely similar.[/size][/color]

[QUOTE]There isn't some trick to find them more often, is there?[/QUOTE] [color=blue][size=1]Besides Gameshark or any equivalent cheating device, no. If it's any consolation, ALL shiny pokemon have the same DV's, so you'll [b]never[/b] find a shiny capable of reaching maximum stats for its species. Shinies look cool, but outside of that they're nothing special.[/size][/color] :(

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Deranged Gerbil [/i] [B]armoured core 2 is terrible! The graphics are glitchy, the controls suck, and the music is too plain the third one don?t look too promising either [/B][/QUOTE] [color=blue][size=1][i]The graphics are glitchy[/i] Not really. AC2 had some slow-down issues, but that was remedied in AC2: AA, along with an improved polygon count. The graphics on AC3 will be even better. Besides, graphics don't make a game, IMO. [i]The controls suck[/i] ...For some. Some people just don't have what it takes to pilot an AC. It's not supposed to have extreme movement capabilities. That's not to say that handling an AC is like handling a "garbage truck", as EGM put it. One needs to fully utilize Boost, Overboost, and the strife buttons to move fluently. Pressing left on the controller to turn around 180 degrees [b]IS[/b] a chore. [i]The music is too plain[/i] I agree with you on this one. From Software really needs to work on this.[/size][/color] :o

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Lady Katana [/i] [B]I've caught a blue Murkrow and a sliver Houndour in my Gold version before. That Houndour evolved, and now it's a really cool-looking Houndoom. [/B][/QUOTE] [color=blue][size=1]Really? Cool! What color is it? A shiny Houndoom must rock. The shiny Pokemon that I've found and caught in the wild: [list] [*]Golbat [*]Cubone [*]Weepinbell [/list] I found them all on different versions while training outside or in a cave or whatever. I hear that coming across a shiny in the wild (except the Red Gyarados @ Lake o' Rage) is approximately 1 in 6,000![/size][/color] :worried:

[color=blue][size=1]A couple of things: [list=1] [*]There is no such thing as "the greatest trainer in the world". Even the best will lose sometimes. [*]Your move listing is confusing. [Spaces] are your [i]friend.[/i] [/list=1] :) [b]Espeon[/b] It can't learn Recover, you Sharker. :o Morning Sun over Recover. No need for a healing move and Rest. Choose Morning Sun or Rest. Shadow Ball is a Ghost move. Despite popular belief, Ghost moves are bases on [i]attack[/i], not special. Espeon has one crap of an attack stat. Try Psychic, Morning Sun, Reflect (R/B/Y Eevee TM), and either Zap Cannon, Bite, or Psych Up. [b]Mewtwo[/b] ...why do you have two Recovers? Thunderbolt over one of them. [b]Starmie[/b] With [b]three[/b] other Psychics on this team, leave out Psychic. Use the Death Star instead. (Surf, Thunderwave, Confuse Ray, Recover @ King's Rock) [b]Mew[/b] Since you obviously don't care about being 'cheap' with Mew & Mewtwo, why bother with your moveset when you can kill 'em with one blow? @ Leftovers Whirlpool traps 'em, Sweet Scent increases accuracy, Horn Drill kills with one hit. Softboiled when needed. Whee. :o [b]Charizard[/b] Few things we could do here.

[QUOTE]forget his name but after you get #1 or beat the game (I forget), a few more challengers come, he's #55 or 65 or something and is INSANELY HARD![/QUOTE] [color=blue][size=1]You mean Matthias (sp?) guy? Do you have the Karasawa MK2? It's a hidden weapon and arguably the best one in the game. Many call it 'cheap'. It helps a lot. To beat him, I found the best way was to dodge all of attacks first. Then, when he's out of ammo, he's an easy kill. :toothy: [b]DO NOT ENGAGE AT CLOSE RANGE[/b] unless you're really, [i]really[/i] good at dodging fast. Be patient, and the PLOW abomination will die.[/color][/size]
