Oh well isn't your life so tough? What about me? What about the white boy? I have to go back to school January 22nd!! My life is far worse. Now i'm forced to enjoy such luxuries as sleep! I think I'll pull through this though...

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Gohan Enraged [/i] [B]I rented it and it's tight! You should definately try it out. it's really easy though. I got halfway through in a day. Tahts a downside for me cuz i like really hard games [/B][/QUOTE] I find some of the boss battles rather difficult. Some of them require a lot of strategy or advanced magic spells. But goodness, halfway in one day? I hear it's a forty hour game!! Surely you're exaggerating just a bit....

1. Tetra Master 2. Aeons(I know it wasn't on the list but I love the new system.) Out of your choices I would choose summons. 3. Materia System 4.Hilde Garde 3 5.Highwind 6.Sephiroth & Jenova 7. Omega 8. Bahamut ZERO 9. Final Fantasy XII 10. Final Fantasy XII

I know your dillema. However, it only takes one sphere to go back four spaces so it's somewhat of a bargain.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by SephirothNIN [/i] [B]You see that blonde chick in the intro and then......15 stages later you see her again, heh and still doesn't explain squat >=(. Ah forget renting, heh just borrow from a friend, heh duh that's always easier. [/B][/QUOTE] Actually, Trish's story is explained. I won't post any spoilers here, but if you truly did beat the game, you'd know why Dane places his trust in her. Anyway Super Goku, almost everyone agrees that the game is exceptional and very well done. Some of us just feel that there are some games out there that are executed just a tad better.

You're not really in desparate need of it. I have the level 3 sphere key and I never ran into a dead end. Look around on the grid and I'm sure you'll find another way for now.

No problem Zidane. Wakka is the Captain of the Belsaid Aurochs. He plays for the team, but as the game begins is prepared to retire so that he can be a full-time gaurdian to Yuna. He uses a blitzball as his weapon of choice too.

If this is Thamasa you're talking about, go to the Inn and rest. When you wake up return to Shadow and check up on him. Now return to the airship, reduce your party to 3 members, and go back to the Veldt. You'll see more of Shadow later. While in Veldt wander around until Gau joins you. Now return to the small island you started at. If you return to Thamasa you'll find out that Shadow has gone to the ColosseumIf you take Sabin and Gau to the shack located on the big island north of the Veldt, you'll learn more about Gau's past. Hope that helps.

I don't know guys, I'm still sticking by my May release date. I don't want to discredit any information, but they've been developing this game for some time now. November is almost a year away, and there is no need for such a big time cushion.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Lady Macaiodh [/i] [B]i just noticed this. someone voted that they'd never heard of them. now, how is that possible? [/B][/QUOTE] :laugh: That was my vote. I knew that no one else would choose that one, so I did. By the way everyone, guess who else is a jedi..... [url]http://politicalhumor.about.com/library/images/bltaliwars.htm[/url]

Heh, I'd probably use those codes after I beat the game once, but then I'd have to kick myself in the butt for forking out the cash for the strategy guide.

Did you ever know one of those kids that wanted something just because it was more expensive? Yeah, I was like that and I learned a valuable lesson. I had to choose between playing the Alto and Tenor saxophone. Upon seeing that the Tenor costed more, I picked it. When I got it, it was just as big as I was. Hehe, it was kind of funny, a little fourth grade kid lugging around an instrument that had a case that he could fit in. Suffice to say, I picked the Alto the very next year...

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Gohan [/i] [B]I got the game for christmas and I agree that it is one of the best games that I have. The levels are longer and more extensive with great detail. More characters. Harder, and all that good stuff. I can't go a day without playing it. Even the music is cool (i m buring that junk!). It is much better and harder than the first, but i cannot vouge for the second cause i hav nevr played it and havn't heard any reviews. Yes, u can get it for any system now, that plays cds. PSX, PS2, Game Cube, and, oh wait, xbox doesn't hav it cause that systems suks!!!! Please don't hurt me....Out of those 3, the ps2 is the best one anyway. The psx does not hav as good grafics, and the Game Cube controls are awful. Its so hard to preform even the simplist moves. I deffinitly reccomend getting it if you hav ps2. If you don't, don't bother. BTW, what is this AirBlade you speak of? [/B][/QUOTE] Actually Xbox is getting THPS3 in March. A lot of the comments you made were totally subjective. Many people like the controls of Pro Skater on the GameCube, as the revert takes better timing.(It's not as cheap) Also Game Cube does not play cds, it plays mini-cds. Also, none of the next generation systems "suck." All of them have specific strengths. Xbox has tremendous power, Playstation 2 has unequaled thrid party support and Gamecube has the best first party titles out there. That being said, I also love the Warehouse level. There are some great grinds an easy gap. My favorite level of all time though...is the Bull Ring from Tony Hawk 2. You wouldn't believe how much fun my friends and I had trying to blow each others scores away there.

Wow, I didn't even think it was supposed to be THE devil you fight in the game. I thought it was just A devil. Same difference I suppose. Good move getting GTA3 because I heard that they will stop manufacturing the game due to complaints on content. If this is true, you might not be able to find it much longer....

The release date as I understand it, is 5/17/02. Hopefully, it'll actually be worth the wait.

Actually, FF XI will be online on PS2. It's always possible they could port one to a PC like they did with FF VII and FFVIII, but we'll have to wait and see. I personally don't think that there are too many Final Fantasies because the developers retain the magic through each release with change. Granted, if they kept the same battle system, central characters, world, etc. the series would become stale. However, with time Final Fantasy has evolved. Look at Final Fantasy X. It brings to the table many firsts for the series such as fully(well almost) 3D polygonal graphics, voice acting, and the sphere grid. It also ditches the ATB system. The Final Fanstasy series would only grow old if Square truly let it. However, just as how Miyamoto evolves Mario with each release, and Yuji Naka evolves Sonic, SQUARE will continue to evolve Final Fantasy. It is a staple series among roleplaying games that constantly breaks sales records world wide. Final Fantasy VII actually opened the door for more RPGs in America (RPGs previously did not sell well here). Don't expect it to end anytime soon.

Once again, I've found the perfect poem for this topic. Dog's Death by John Updike She must have been kicked unseen or brushed by a car, Too young to know much, she was beginning to learn To use newspapers spread on the kitchen floor And to win, wetting there,the words, "Good dog! Good dog!" We thought her shy malaise was a shot reaction The autopsy disclosed a rupture in her liver, As we teased her with play, blood was filling her skin. And her heart was learning to lie down forever. Monday morning, as the children were noisily fed And sent to school, she crawled beneath the youngest's bed. We found her twisted and limp but still alive. In the car to the vet's, on my lap,she tried To bite my hand and died, I stroked her warm fur And my wife called in a voice imperious with tears, Though surrounded by love that would have upheld her, Nevertheless she sank and, stiffening, disappeared. Back home, we found that in the night her frame, Drawing near to dissolution, had endured the shame Of diarrohoea and had dragged across the floor To a newspaper carelessly left there. [I]Good dog.[/I]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Lady Macaiodh [/i] [B]in powhatan, they'll definitely be shooting off guns. they shoot them off at weddings & stuff, for godssakes. [/B][/QUOTE] The politicians are making a big deal out of it. A fourteen year old boy was shot in the head because of it, thus suffering permanent brain damage. They actually compared shooting guns as a third would country celebration. The father figure has spoken.....

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Justin [/i] [B] Because...I don't need to post in the Suggestion Forum. The moderators and administrators are all well aware of the picture topic problem. In fact, I've spkoen with James about it already. And kuja, and a few other moderators. I've suggested a sticky topic for pics...but James gave a very good reason why he wouldn't do that. He said that we will all just have to learn to reuse topics as much as possible. Don't tell me where posts belong, I assure you, I know. -Justin [/B][/QUOTE] Hmmm, my apologies. My earnest opinion, although no one asked for it, is that it's just a fad, that'll die out soon.

This is a difficult question. There are so many noble things one could do with just one wish. I suppose I'd wish for an honest president of the United States, with half a brain to boot.

I've heard that some levels from the original Tony Hawk, such as The Warehouse are hidden. Once, I get off my lazy bum, I'll have to unlock these goodies.

Well, you didn't ask for help in any particular area, so I hope this does it for you. [U]These items are part of your quest:[/U] Precursor Orbs - These appear as mauve eggs with some writing on them. You can trade these for power cells with various characters and the Oracles along the way; generally 90 Orbs per power cell from people and 120 Orbs per power cell from Oracles. Most Orbs are in plain sight, but some are contained in other objects such as Metal Boxes or the Blue Eco Device. Power Cells - These are your main objectives in the game. They appear as glowing spheres with smaller spheres surrounding them. On the Progress Screen, you can see which of the power cell objectives you have completed and which you have discovered. Scout Flies - These are small helicopter-like objects that were sent to each area by Keira. They do not begin in plain sight; instead, you need to open the red metal boxes they are in (Handstand Dive, Zoomer, Yellow Eco burst, Flut-Flut Dash). In each location, there are 7 Scout Flies that can be found for another power cell. [U]Eco Types[/U] There are at least 4 types of Eco in the game. Touching a piece of Blue, Red, or Yellow Eco will add it to your Eco Meter. The Eco Meter steadily drains after touching pieces of Eco and the effects (and quantity) of Eco are only for the last color touched. (example: if you have a full meter of Blue Eco and hit a piece of Yellow Eco, your meter will show only one piece's worth of Yellow Eco) Blue Eco - The effects of Blue Eco are as follows: Jak's movement speed is increased; nearby Orbs and green health crystals will glow blue then gravitate toward Jak; activation of several varieties of Precursor artifacts and devices (Orb Holder Devices, Precursor Doors, Jungle Temple Bridge, etc). Red Eco - The effect of Red Eco is to increase attack power. Under the influence of Red Eco, Jak can knock down a vertical bone bridge or kill a Skeleton Lurker with one punch; however, his running speed is slightly reduced. Yellow Eco - When Jak punches, a ball of Yellow Eco power will shoot from his fist. His running speed is reduced. Green Eco - When Jak opens most boxes & barrels and/or kill a lurker, small pieces of Green Eco will emerge. Collect 50 small pieces of Green Eco to gain a level back on Jak's health meter; if it's full, you can collect up to 50 pieces in reserve. Occasionally, you will encounter a large piece of Green Eco, it is worth 50 small pieces by itself. In two areas, there are Green Eco Vents (Sentinel Beach and Precursor Basin), these will return your health to full with 50 pieces' worth of Green Eco in reserve. The only time Green Eco affects the Eco Meter is in the Precursor Basin; the Green Eco Vent there is meant for curing the Dark Eco infected plants. Dark Eco - This form of Eco is toxic. Contact with a box of Dark Eco will cause the box to explode and take 1 unit of health. Contact with the Dark Eco in the Dark Eco pools in various locations will kill Jak. White Eco - This form of Eco only exists at ONE place in the game, the Gol & Maia's Precursor Robot boss fight. It appears as a small piece of the White Eco cloud that forms above the Precursor Silo; its only use is to deliver the final blow to the Precursor Robot. Its actual properties are a combination of Blue, Red, Yellow, and Green Eco.

My puppy, Missy got hit just a couple months after I bought her. She survived thank goodness, but with a broken pelvic bone, burns, fractured leg and a handful of other injuries. She's almost better though. Too bad I still can't walk her.

I'll probably eat some chicken wings, drink some Louisiana hot sauce, and watch the fireworks explode.
