TBH, I think Crisis Core had a good storyline.

1. It shows how Zack got the Buster Sword that he gave Cloud.
2. It shows how Zack met Aerith, Cloud, and Tifa.

The Avalon Hill game? Well if it is you have good taste, they have never made a bad game that I recall.

Maybe. Been playing it on the D&D forums, but both are owned by WotC so I wouldn't be surprised if it was taken from one and adjusted for the other.

D'you think they can remake FF7 (the original) for PS3 without ruining the game?

... that just asks for a snarky comment. But resisting that, I don't see why not. Indeed, there are plenty of parts of the game that could use a remake (the Golden Saucer place thingy, the hordes of minigames, Summon times, etc).

I started a new game of Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon! I stopped my other playthrough (the save'll still be there though) and in this one I'm going to try to get the x-Chapters (I have to limit myself to 15 party members on 5 separate occasions!? That's gonna be a lot of intentional sacrificing...V_V)...Maybe I shouldn't even be trying this...>_>

Holy fucking shit there's a new FE out?

Shadow Dragon for the DS, it's a remake of the first game, starring Marth as the protagonist.

Yay! Marth will get an English voice come next SSB!

Aw, I really like his Japanese voice.

[x_XTacTX_x]

He talks all fast & purdy.

[Shadow D. Darkman]

Yeah, but he's such a fuggin' badass, and I can't speak Japanese! Give him an English voice, and it's easier to do an impression of him!

I'm currently addicted to this old game I dug up out of a box called I-Ninja. Mainly focused on gameplay (It actually has very little plot) and graphics, it is a great game, abeit childish.

I'm  FINALLY playing Chrono Cross, for the first time, I might add, and I already love it. The simalarities between it and Trigger are already present, and I love it. It is definitely a Chrono game, no matter what anyone says.

Damn its a Japanese Xbox exclusive.

[Shee]

Ahhhh...I've been playing Zelda II Adventure of Link...Error may be my homeboy but let's just say it's not going well.  I FINALLY finished the first palace and somehow didn't grab the candle when I was in there....so I need to go  back there again.

Awesome.

No.

Tetsuya Nomura seems to be a whore for his fangirls and Gackt. I don't want to see one of my favorite games turned into a catastrophe like Crisis Core.

Catastrophe? Hardly. Dirge of Cerberus was a catastrophe. Crisis Core was the best thing to come out of the entire Compilation. Why did you hate it so much?

And Nomura could do an excellent remake if he wanted to. Look at Re: Chain of Memories for PS2 -- perfect update of the original for GBA. Hopefully he realizes that FFVII needs to be remade for PS3 with the exact same treatment -- nothing more, nothing less.
