To be fair though...Final Fantasy XI is outdated.

I hear Final Fantasy XIII has a pretty badas black guy. It's about time we got another black guy in a Final Fantasy game.

Sim Kid · 06-03-2009, 01:16 PM

I'm surprised they didn't make an Ivalice spinoff. :/

Hahaha...in the trailer he looks EXACTLY like that!

An online game sucked last gen, but now online is a gaming staple that is integrated with all systems. I think it could work, if it has an offline mode.

**Crazyswordsman** · 06-03-2009, 07:08 PM

Online gaming = waste of money and time.

(and this news caps off a miserable, MISERABLE evening). -CSM

^ Wow, er, I really don't think so. Playing people online at Street Fighter is fun as hell. Meet some damn good (and cheap) people.

ZeldaGirl · 06-03-2009, 07:46 PM

Yeah, I wouldn't necessarily bash online gaming, either. I'm kind of excited, by the time this comes out, I'll likely have a PS3. PLUS, though there isn't much info now, Uematsu is doing the entire soundtrack - that alone has me excited.

**Crazyswordsman** · 06-04-2009, 06:09 AM

^The only reason I bash online gaming is the expense. I'm sure the online games are very good, I just won't play them because of the monthly cost. -CSM

**Loot** · 06-04-2009, 09:06 AM

Why? I'm glad I pay for my online gaming. Even though the Halo community can be quite bad at times, I've had plenty of times where I got a good group (On games with 16 players, even!) where I have a great game experience.

Plus, now that I play WoW, I can easily see why there's a fee. The game is changed a lot. Very, very fun.

Yeah, but does he have a Chocobo in that afro?

Well then, bash the expense and not the game - at least, not until you've heard more about the game.

Sim Kid · 06-04-2009, 02:00 PM

^But this is the internet where you can bash a game that you've never even played and the bashings count legitimately. Heck I even see everyone and myself do it all the time!

I REALLY HATE POKEMON! · 06-04-2009, 04:51 PM

I HATE FF15

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Then I will ask Square to show me the game in a normal format.

MMORPGs are, in my opinion, the ONLY games that people are permitted to bash without playing them. -CSM

**X-3** · 06-04-2009, 08:37 PM

^That makes total sense. I now understand everything and can die a wise man.

ZeldaGirl · 06-05-2009, 01:23 AM

^^Er, why?
