I am watching this clip right now... And do not appreciate all the details that went into Jenova. Mainly the eyeball on her boob. It's making me sad to watch Zack in action again, but I'm checking to make sure it's got the thing I mentioned on #4 of the hate list (and it does). Ya'll better love me for going through the torment.
Y'know, I just thought of something. Fighting Sephiroth in Dissidia is like, "12 feet of terror" (Yeah, you could probably put a sex joke in that), but if you're fighting using him, it's more like "MASAMUNE FTW!" Definitely my top 3 characters in that game are Terra, Zidane, and Sephiroth... But Cloud's alternate outfit is pretty dang sexy. NO, I didn't just say that. The inner fangirl is taking over. Her name's Barbara.
That was so random.
I really gotta learn Japanese. And Latin, so I know what the heck One-Winged Angel is saying. I look it up, but always forget. Something about hate and terror and destruction and other adjectives that describe terrorists and natural disasters, all followed by "SE-PHI-ROTH!"
Haha, yeah, gotta keep with that T rating, the whole no blood thing. Sephiroth AND Cloud were skewered with razor-sharp swords, but do they bleed? Noooo. This is giving a bad example to children. I can see it now...
Kid #1: Ahh! You just stabbed me in the heart with a butter knife! (Tonberry reference, anyone?)
Kid #2: That's OK. I saw it in Final Fantasy. You won't even bleed!
... Was it just me, or was that very morbid?
Aww, and I just love this part. You can really tell Cloud cares about Tifa. It just warms my heart... Then crushes it when he gets thrown around like a helpless slice of ham on a toothpick.
OK, Seph, dude, if you're trying to save your mommy or whatever, why slice off her head? That would not be my first idea. And lovely guttural noises, Cloud. I know you just got stabbed in the diaphragm and all, but really? It's like when you're in battle and you beat an enemy, it kind of sounds like it farts when it dies. And also, even though he just got a huge sword stuck through his ribs, how does Cloud throw Sephiroth all over the place? I would not be able to do that. I wouldn't even think of that. Then again, I'm not a Final Fantasy character or one of their programmers.
Oh, yeah, just walk it off Cloud. You only had your upper intestines carved out by the "sharpest sword ever." Be a MAY-UN! Oh, look, he fell over. My bad.
Uhhgg, Hojo. Frickin' hate that guy. I felt the need to throw my hatred out there. And yeah, the video is in Japanese. I already know what it says (nevermind the fact that I can't remember it...) but it was the first one I clicked on, so go ahead and watch it. My lovely commentary should be enough explanation for you. Speaking of which, I had a lot of fun with this...

Crisis Core Review
Yeah, it's been a while... Again. Maybe I should try to update every Saturday? Who am I kidding, it wouldn't get done. Either way, I recently finished Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII... That was seriously the saddest ending ever. More sad than FFX. But I hated X, so I might have cried at the end of it if Seymour Flux had just died the first time I battled him, instead of the 5,482nd. Yes, that one battle made me hate the entire game. I just had a cranergy and those things make me bounce off the walls (and topics), so let's get on with this show.
If you don't already know, CC is a prequel to VII. It follows the (all too short) life of Zack Fair and tells more about how Sephy went bad, Cloud got the Buster Sword, and who Aerith was always talking about being in SOLDIER. Isn't a bit ironic I love Aerith in CC, but hate her everywhere else? Probably cause she didn't know Cloud yet and couldn't try to get in Tifa's way. (ClouTi FTW!) Oops, lemme try again....
K, so if we're talkin' about the battle system, it definitely has some getting used to, but I liked it in the end. What I really hated was you only have 5 materia slots, so you don't really reach full potential... In my opinion. Heck, I'm still used to VII and having like 10 slots on Vincent's Death Bringer. Is it weird that that and chocobos are the main thing I remember from that game? And that horrible Gold Saucer... Uhhgg. Another problem I had with the battles is how it says "Entering Combat Mode" or something at the beginning of every battle. It's not just words, this weird chick says it, too. If I'm not expecting it (which is most of the time) it'll scare the bajeebuz out of me. Seriously, you should see me jump. But I have say it was kinda cool it when said "Conflict Resolved" when you win. "In other words, you kicked his butt!" as my dad said.
... And I really have to brag about the music in this game. Honestly some of my favorite music in any game ever (including any Guitar Hero. Is that weird?)
The characters, wow, the characters were just... Wow. Zack was really likable to me. He kind of was like Cloud, but he seemed a much more optimistic, outgoing person. Not that I don't love Cloud. Must... stop... before... inner fangirl... takes over!!..... Ahem, now, some of the new characters in this game (and also never, ever mentioned ever, ever again, anywhere) include Genesis, another human project; Angeal, who talks about honor all the time then goes and kills his own mom (was I the only one who saw the irony in that?); and Cissnei, a Turk who's obviously sweet on Zack and never tells you her real name. Seriously, I would kill just to know her real name. It's killing me on the inside. But not really. I'll probably forget about it in a week or so.
The story was pretty well thought-out. It explains pretty much everything you wanted to know from VII and did it in a nice, timely fashion. I mean, after about 30 minutes of playing, I really felt into it, trying to become 1st class SOLDIER. Or that just may be a cosplaying mindset. Who knows? Anyway, it does explain stuff from VII, and even has time to add in its own little story about Sephy, Angeal, and Genesis. But his poem was kinda weird. It was interesting and all, but seriously hard to follow since it was spliced up and recited in different parts of the game. I can't remember yesterday, much less what the last thing a character said. You can watch in on YouTube and hear it all at once, but I still have to have the words to follow along with. Confusing, I know. Wow, I'm thinking up so much stuff right now I can hardly concentrate.... Or type straight. Backspace is your friend! You know you can find Vincent in the basement at Nibelheim? I thought that was funny. But it also made me sad. Poor Vinny.
Honestly there's only about 3 or 5 things that I hated about the game, and they are...
1. It made me like Aerith.
2. I finished the game at about level 39. Usually you finish a Final Fantasy around 50. Or at least I do.
3. The ending. I bawled my eyes out. Well, not really. But the little crying I did was the equivalent of bawling since I never cry.
4. The Cloud-kabob scenario. I'd heard of it, but it still made me sad to watch. Poor Cloud.
5. Zack's new hair. I liked it better the original way he had it.
I feel this is pretty long, so I'll end it here. But I'll probably put another thing up with videos from stuff I've talked about... TTYL! Err... S! (That's soon instead of later. See what I did there?)

FFXIII, finally!
Just a little note here that, in case you've been living under a rock and have no idea, Final Fantasy XIII is set for March 9, 2010 on PS3 and 360. I was so excited when I found out I almost crapped puppies :D

KH W-- Well, you know.
So I was looking through Legend of Zelda flair on Facebook (I'm such a dork, I know) and I remembered, "Hey, I've got a blog!" So here I am, on with the show...
Well, I'm extremely disappointed in this for changing their layout. I can't find a list of worlds anywhere... At least not an alphabetical one. I do however love the red.
Uhhggg, more searching and still no luck. I even tried Google and Wikipedia. Until someone gets their ducks in a row, I don't feel like messing with it.
