Just watched a Cloud reveal montage. Best line ever and should be used to advertise Cloud when he's out

Cloud: We're one step away from Goku.
I prefer the "Please don't be Shovel Knight" guy. No idea why, but it cracks me up every time I think of it.

It's probably not a good idea to be playing through Final Fantasy VII (steam) and Banjo Kazooie (Rare Replay) at the same time. Final Fantasy is pretty good, but when I'm on it I'm kind of just thinking "I could be in Mad Monster Mansion right now".

I have a similar issue whenever I play any JRPG, not just FF7.
"I could be playing a large number of games I would be enjoying more right now"

I feel somewhat obligated at this point to actually finish Tales of Symphonia, but I actually do have the excuse of being busy for this game.
I put off Earthbound many many times. I didn't enjoy it very much.

I wouldn't be playing a JRPG while playing another game.

I rather stick to it and blast through the way until I get tired of it and give it a break.

It's how Inplay Persona 4.

I never feel like I could be playing something better instead of playing an RPG
Because there isn't something better than an RPG ;^)

Biggest impact? Mega Man. EASLY. I did not expect that at all, same as I didnt think he'l be in Brawl, especially since it was fresh off of the dark age of Capcom. It blew my damn mind, and I would lie if I said it didnt influence my decision to buy a WiiU a bit. There ware some hype reveals like Little Mac, sure. But the only thing that came even remotely close to the feeling I had when they revealed Mega Man was Cloud.

Also waitaminute, Swamp aint a mod any more? Have I been in a slumber for that long?

I found this small, just-beginning Kirby-related Forum about a week ago.
It's a small, quiet place, sometimes it's only me and the Site Admin (The Warchamp7 of the site, to put it in comparison) that are online
But the people there are passionate about what they do (Whatever it may be) and it's a nice place. :4pacman:

Yeah I get you. This is what I don't like about long games unless they're literal masterpieces (I don't think FF7 is anywhere near a masterpiece). Banjo Kazooie as well as Tooie are undoubtedly my all time favourite games so it just makes that feeling worse. It doesn't help that FF7 is a pretty long game.

I'm not a huge RPG guy but I want to finish FF7 before Cloud is released.

I need FF7, but I only have a Mac and I can't run FF7 on it. ._.

Any other FF you guys can recommend to me?
Any of the 6 FF titles prior to FF7?
IMO FF IV and VI are great games and both can be purchased on the Wii eshop (I think). VI has fantastic characters and magic is handled way better than VII. Once someone learns a spell, that's it. They can use it whenever they feel like.

Well I'm an idiot.

I thought the PC FF games were on sale on Steam but nope it was just on SE's website.

So, I really hurt my eyes trying to watch gameplay of Paper Jam in French version (most of the French translations sucks) and......ouch, some did hurt :(


But at the end of the video we saw new stuff!

Paper Mario seems to have another unique ability that wasn't mentioned until i realised it: he can defend. It's jsut what it sounds like, you press X and he will do the TTYD defend pose and take much less damage, what is very interesting is that this is coming from his gameplay in SS, but that gameplay part did came from TTYD.

Again, this is something interesting because they really almost never mention SS (maybe cause they know what people think of the game), but they reuse the mechanic that was....I guess fine on their own. Though, tbh honest with you, it's a smart idea to keep the defend mechanic because m&l again, it's more execution than strategy so allowing this mechanic makes Paper Mario.......I guess fit better.

Btw, i just thought of soemthing mind blowing, the jump where you have multiple copy......it's from SS, even the fact of him getting copied several times is from SS, more specifically this sticker:



This is big shiny clone jump, forget the big shiny, all it does is you have multiple jump because Paper Mario clones himself with 4 copies which does the jumps. The only difference in m&l is you make 6 copies, but the attack is essentially the same as the Paper Mario all do each one jump and they are relaying the attack one after another which is what happens in paper jam.

Now, again, this mechanic in SS: it really doesn't do much, but in paper jam? It's more an addition and a good thing for paper mario more than anything because it is exactly like a normal jump action command in SS which I will say it now, is much better than the TTYD or pm64 one as it has more button presses, I just wish the action command were as hard as TTYD because SS was a joke.

M&l however, they are always fine in terms of action command input so it would be better.

Also, we are exactly a week away from the release in JP, maybe someone could dump a decrypted rom for me so i can rip the data off, but we'll see :)
