go f* yourself.

Slow Down Cowboy!
Slashdot requires you to wait 20 seconds between hitting 'reply' and submitting a comment.
It's been 17 seconds since you hit 'reply'!"
"Slashdot requires you to wait 2 minutes between each successful posting of a comment to allow everyone a fair chance at posting a comment.
It's been 1 minute since you last successfully posted a comment"
See what I mean.
By the way, I've gotten first post before, dude.
It's not that hard.
LOL
That's pretty funny.
If I was Microsoft, I'd be sitting in a corner sucking my thumb and hoping that Sony dosen't bowl me over with their greatness.
First and foremost thing to understand, Ceyan, is that you are too narrow-minded. It is true that on pen & paper, you can truly assume the role of "your" character, which is basicly you. But you also need to understand that a console RPG is designed just how it's meant to be, and you are supposed to go through, AND ENJOY THE F*ING STORY! No company is good enough to please everyone. No one can create "the perfect game". That's why there is such a wide variety of genres. Every game is true in itself. An RPG is an RPG. If there is a half-breed in this gaming world, its people like you. I've said my piece.
"It's about frickin' time they added "Pirate" to the set of job classes."
Dude, if this is true. . . my mind just went blank thinking about all the stuff I would do.
Airship off the port bow! Take her amid-ship! Prepare to board! Arrrrr!
I don't think that anyone should be ripping on any FF game. If you don't like a certain one, like FFIX or FFX, then please don't sit there and b***h about them. Other people liked them, and it's really only a matter of opinion. Just because some people don't like a game dosen't mean that it realy does suck.
I think that if Japan gets a price cut then we should to. I own a PS2, and so far Sony has a much wider selection of games than Nintendo or Microsoft platforms. They are going to have to change that before they will ever be able to beat Sony's PS3. I don't know what the new PS3 will be capable of but, I hope that it comes with a hard drive already built in, and the ability to play music cd's WITH the visual effects like the X-Box and the PS1.
For those of you that are only siding with one type of RPG gaming, I have something to say to you.
If you have ever played any of the Final Fantasy series, you would know that ALL of the characters have a major role in the game and each have their own personality. they aren't just an image to get you through the game. Also, the Final Fantasy series has always had a very ivolved plot and storyline. There is no lack of identity or personality on games like Baldur's Gate or Morrowind. You create the character, you have the choice of where to go, what to say, who to kill, ally with. . . basicly, YOU ARE THE CHARACTER, your character is a mirror image of you. If your character lacks personality, then you must not have much of an imagination. Sorry, but it's true. You are the player. On any other RPG, like Final Fantasy,(my absolute favorite) Arc the Lad, etc, the characters personality is pre-programmed into the storyline and you just play through the game and enjoy the story.
In the end, it all comes around to what the players preferrences are.
I would have to agree with Parallex. A good RPG should be one with a good storyline, something to enjoy. And I am definitely part of that "small cult level." I always have been and always will be an RPG fan.

Dude, I think you are overeacting. The US is the most advanced in military technology. Russia is secondmost technologically advanced. Do you realize what that means? Were still the best!!! So stop worying.
What are the "must have" games of today? I believe it all depends on what the player truly enjoys. For example, I am a hardcore RPG fan. I don't always like to play shooters. But every once in a while there is a game that comes out that I just get hooked on, like Medal of Honor: Frontline and SOCOM: Navy Seals. Somebody else might think that those games suck, but that dosen't mean that they aren't "must have" quality. It just depends on the players preferences.
For anyone that rips on 8-bit gaming, YOU NEED TO STFU!!! We are not outdated. For the record, I have both an original GameBoy, a PSone, AND a PS2. Hows that for enjoying a wide range of gaming experience. I am not narrow minded like some of you criticising SOB's. Graphics are not everything. If the game has a good story line then who cares if it's 8-bit or 64-bit!!!

How is this going to affect the next line of consoles? Will it cause the prices to be much higher? Will the number of consoles to be made drop?
ha ha ha ha ha

It's me again, I forgot to give you my e-mail. It's chewbakasan@yahoo.com
If you could possibly e-mail me some info on those classes and how I could attend them, . . . yeah, that would be nice. Thanks.
that may be true, and I might be the sucker in the end, but I will always buy FF games.

That is if my other one didn't go through. Anyway, if this is true, I would love to go to one of these colleges.
With Final Final Final Final Final Final Final Final Final Final Final Final Fantasy Fans like me, THE MADNESS WILL NEVER END! MWA HA HA HA HA!

This is a good thing, Because Nintendo has always had the games like Zelda and Mario, and it would be sad if those games disappeared.

There is a certain level at which hot and sexy becomes one of those "thats just wrong" things.
