The Other Worlds Shrine

Your place for discussion about RPGs, gaming, music, movies, anime, computers, sports, and any other stuff we care to talk about... 

  • Before Crisis, Crisis Core, Dirge of Cerebrus, and Advent Children. We now have FOUR Final Fantasy VII, prequels and sequels. I wonder what took Square so long to figure out how popular FFVII was. I wonder when they're gonna remember how big a hit Chrono

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Sadly, they won't do the same with FF4, FF6, or FF9, the latter of which was the worst-selling post-SNES FF game. And Chrono Cross barely crossed the 400,000 mark in Japan, so no chance there. Why do you think the clocks we got had Japanese instructions?</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>FFIX's ending closed things up,. FFIV left it wide open, hell you could have a whole new adventure with Kain, he sure the hell was cool enough. FFVI had a complete ending, don't see what you can do there. And it's not CT's fault Square ruined CC, I've seen worse games get sequels!</div>

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Seriously. CC was a decent game, but I think it should be purged from the Chrono storyline.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>CC was excellent, better than I thought a sequel to CT would be. I don't know why the hell you guys don't like it much</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>CC and FF9 were the only PSX Square games worthy of their heritage, IMO (haven't beaten Vagrant Story yet)</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I can tell you that my gaming preferance is quite different from yours, I didn't like either of those games at all. I did absolutely love Vagrant Story though, I have finished it about 6 times =)</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>We don't really know yet. Before Crisis is a cell phone game that I think has to do with the Turks, Crisis Core is a PSP game that has to do with who knows what, and Dirge of Cerberus is an upcoming PS2 action game starring Vincent (drool!).</div>
