why restrict yourself?

Post by Kilakion » Thu Dec 30, 2004 9:16 am

I know they're a lot of FF fans out there, i'm one of them, I loved Final Fantasy 7, and i'm excited about the sequal movie FF7:Advent of Children, but I also heard they're making a second sequal off it, or should i say Third Sequal given if you include the cell phone game that's out in Japan already, that involves a third person shooter with the character Vincent Valentine.

Three sequals off of one game, in my opinion, they're feeding the cash cow, i mean why three sequals? i think its sad really, i mean i loved ff7, i thought the game was done etc. when i finished it in my 8th grade almost half a decade ago, now i hear it continues, half the sequals don't make sense to me, but i gues if you want to fuel the cash cow to your gaming company, give the mob what they want, in the japanese gaming market, its sequals lol :roll: . Now there's no argument that the FF series has good quality, but they're other games out there with quality that can match games of the FF series, and there's no doupt that american games can match the ff series. some of different platforms like i.e. Halo 2, Half Life 2, Everquest genre, the Electronic Arts sports games, etc. i mean hell why be limited to only using japanese game footage? its like saying i can make a plain ice cream sunday but if i had the right to use this footage(in this example igredients), i can make a ice cream sunday with extra chocolate syrup, rainbow sprinkles, and an extra cherry on the top, err make that two extra cherries ^_^, but as long as the regulations stand, we'll be stuck with the plain stuff, not like its bad or anything, just less freedom and don't forget, less fun. :(

:roll:

HALO 2 on it's opening day made more than 100 million in sales on its FIRST DAY of release, that right there goes to show the quality of games outside of japan,



lol

you are just like many of the "interesting" people who populated my college dorm room.

In the world of gaming let me tell you, the number of sales is not directly proportional to the quality of the game.

I have no bias on whether a game is Japanese or American made, all that matters is that it is a well made game. Personally, my favorite game at the moment would have to Half Life 2. While this is an american made game, i also enjoy many japanese games such as Chrono Trigger, the FF series, and a few fighting games.

Anyway, i just wanted to interject that halo 2 sucks and was a rushed project that didnt get finished to the standard it was hyped to be.
Halo 2 didn't suck, the sequal was ground breaking on many communities, it proved that violent first person shooters are still loved by millions, it created one of the most profound online communities ever, if you check the stats onto how many people are playing Halo 2 online, they're is an average 90,000 people playing the game even as I type this, the stat tracking system for the online play is one of the best i've scene in my life, you can rank yourself and the gaming clan you're in against the world for christ sake, not many games alloy such online capability like that, in my perspective, that alone is revolutionary, the story was good, and the hype? hell who didn't hype that game? i mean i made music videos and wallpapers for the game before it had hit store shelves, i posted parody trailers on www.fileplanet.com, people talked about it on a constant rate, so how the hell are you suppose to feed the mob what they want, when they want too freakin much, besides The Limited Edition Verson of Halo 2 that comes with in a Metal Case with a Free DVD was a steal at only 55$ bucks lol, i mean they gave more then anything else.

And quality, shit Halo 2 hit the dinamite with quality and quantity, and the blame for its lack of quality can be blamed on the press, the fans of the original Halo game, and all the common people out there who ranted about it. who in resolve asked for more they could recieve.

I mean hell, did any of the Final Fantasy games come in a Metal Case or with a free DVD? :roll:

Did any of the final fantasy games have an online tracking system as profound as Halo 2's :roll:

And what has more replayability, Final Fantasy 7 or Halo 2? :roll:

*cough* Halo 2 :wink:

So wrong on several points. The first of which being that the spelling is 'sequel'.

1. The order of everything is this: FFVII: Before Crisis (this is the cellphone game. it's a prequel, not a sequel), FFVII, FFVII Advent Children (and as it's a movie I'm not sure if it really counts a sequel to the game), and FFVII Dirge of Cerebus (which is to take place 3 years after the events in Advent Children).

It's not like Square has been milking FFVII since it came out, as all three of these developments are pretty recent.

All you've done is prove that you slept during the part where we were told that THIS IS A SITE FOR ANIME MUSIC VIDEOS. Madden isn't anime, Halo 2 isn't anime, Half Life 2 isn't anime. The only reason Japanese VGMVs are allowed at all on this site is because Japanese videogames and anime employ a similar art style. This is the same reason Invader Zim videos aren't allowed on the site, and the same reason that Lord of the Rings videos aren't allowed on the site (even though I do wish they'd allow live-action anime adaptations - Casshern's begging for an MV), and the same reason that everyone bitching about no Halo MVs is going to be sorely dissapointed for as long as they care about it. If you have a problem with the way things are run here, go and create vgmusicvideos.org or something. Nothing's stopping you. Ganbattene!

Violent first person shooters have been loved by millions since Doom. What's your point?

Final Fantasy 11 keeps track of hundreds of thousands of players, where they are, what they're doing, and what items they have, all flawlessly :wink:

Iunno. Why make a Halo 2? Halo was good enough, except for, y'know, single player mode ;-)

You can't say that they're milking the FF series when each game (except for the direct sequels, of which there's only one out right now) takes place in its own universe, and you still haven't proven at all why the American game industry is dominant over the Japanese industry when the best evidence you can muster is one game that happens to be adored by drunken fratboys across the country. Just because Halo 2 has a broad appeal doesn't make it a good game. After all, even Bush got 59 million people to like him ;-)

and ya i've debated about footage types on this site with other accounts, have lost the debates several times, have goten banded in the past for submitting american-video game footage based videos, but i'll always stand behind video game footage type freedoms :wink:, so ya, i get the point of what this site is for, i just think it'd be cool to have other game footage types aloud.

I searched for Halo vids and quite a few came up. Maybe they're referring to an anime also called Halo I don't know... but as for the game... it's not anime like DOAU. Hopefully the mods will see that Halo is not allowed as an entry and remove all those videos, but most likely nothing will be done about it. :lol:

That'll get done faster if you report all those videos to the Mod Box

It's funny, I agree with you. Of course, Halo's the only reason I'd ever want to buy an XBox, but I have dozens of reasons to buy a PS2...
