[Gironika]

and once again, it is time to celebrate all things SQEX. Grab that copy of [title] that you have been hidin' away for years, now it's time to play that sucker (and realise that, indeed, it was a good decision to hide it away).

And as the "finally final" implies, for the last time!
… Maybe. Probably final though!

Even if the IIIrd strike is still around, nobody can remember what happened last time, since the axe pruned that properly. Fear not, you didn't miss much, since

- I've spotted Front Mission Evolved in a shop
- someone rocked through FF1 & 2
- glasses where clinked in a bavarian restaurant with Thailanders
- some drakengard sample-ripping took place (with typo, left intact for a year now)
- BA was finished
- a car was bought
- and some tactics ogre and twewy'ing took place.

Sounds better than it actually was? Hell yeah.

Inspired by the quite awesome FF7-replay of a fellow SBer, nothing could sum up the spirit of this week better than the following quote:

[Gironika]

and to start things off, teasin' what I'm playing right now:



no modifications or retouching necessary, I absolutely love that cam.

Unless we can get away with playing something they only published, rather than developed themselves?

[boojiboy7]

I just beat ff13 last night (ugh) and tonight or tomorrow will start ff13-2. Oh yeah, fuck modern SQEX. Gonna have to insert some R.Kelly into it.

[GrimmSweeper]

I guess I'll continue my journey of Nier that I barely touched after that drunken playthrough a month or so previous.

Or throw TWEWY into my DS that's on its way out. It had a bitching soundtrack.

[shnozlak]

so whos up for kingdom hearts 40 hands?

My bro's bringing over 13-2 again tonight. We'll keep an eye out for tragically hilarious shit.
A snippet from the 13-2 demo thread, about the first time we played it last weekend:

[boojiboy7]

Man me and Dinghy had a spreadsheet of ridiculous shit from ff13 going. so much crazy stupid shit in that game. it was almost endearing.

[Loki Laufeyson]

I am playing the translated zodiac version of of Final Fantasy XII in an attempt to see how much optional content I can handle before finally finishing the last dungeon. I don't think I've ever simultaneously loathed and yet loved a game this way.

[Swarm]

my ambitions as a rydia

[tacotaskforce]

I bought FME for $8 a month or so ago, and played the single player up to maybe the end boss. It's sort of I guess maybe an OK game for what it is? The game kind of feels like the clipshow movie version of the real game. The single player is also kind of obviously training for MP, but MP is impossible to play because no one is ever on. What's worse is that if anyone is on it's level 70 Japanese players who are, because of how leveling works, basically impossible to kill when you're level 1.

I'd get Threads of Fate and play it for the first time, but the week would be over by the time it gets shipped
I always did want to play that one.

[boojiboy7]

isn't it on PSN? I thought it was.

[analogos]

sigh

[ionustron]

I...don't remember this event.

Just strange seeing this with the springtime and warming weather, I always get the Kawazu Kick for about a week in June-ish. But I'm not ready now!

I've still yet to finish Saga Frontier. It's something I like to inch through about once every year, complete a scenario.

[BenoitRen]

Damn it I wish I had been warned of this week so I could anticipate it. I'm playing a non-Square Enix game right now.

Feels good to know I was right about that teaser image being from Chrono Cross!
_________________
Get Xenoblade Chronicles!

[remote]

Games I may play:

Nier
Drakengard
Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song
Live A Live
Xenogears (maybe, just for the disc 1 towns/music)
Front Mission III
Einhänder
Chrono Cross

Probably in the listed order, too, meaning I'll most likely end up playing Chrono Cross after this event is over. It's just starting to warm up outside lately — one day the sun is shining and the next it's overcast again, but colors are gradually returning to trees and the chill of winter is a fading memory. Once summer fully arrives, I think that is when I will play Chrono Cross once again.

Coincidentally, I've been:

-replaying Chrono Cross (used to be my favourite game once upon a time)
-started a new game on FFIX because Chrono Cross' battle system is so boring
-playing DQIV on DS, to and from work
-watching my friend play Chrono Trigger for the first time, this one is probably more enjoyable than all of the above

Graphics, towns, music, and good times be damned. I think Crono Cross might actually suck.

I think I'm right near the end of Final Fantasy VI Advance, but I probably won't be finishing it this week.

I used a random name generator as an aid when naming the characters in this save file, and I'm pretty pleased with the results:

I want to play Front Mission 3 at some point

I too have an FFVI Advance save basically at the end of the game. I stopped playing because I was doing a really dumb super min/max playthrough and I made a couple wrong-esper-equipped-while-leveling mistakes. also it was time to uncurse the cursed shield and that's never any fun.

[Mime Paradox]

Calling dibs on talking about the SaGa 2 remake. No pictures, though.
