I couldn't remember what I had disliked about FF8 so much until I got to the third disc with its awful and completely out of place quick time events. The game parts of FF8 also finally fall away completely and it becomes a visual novel where the only thing required of me is to move Squall around...

They've printed effects like Gridlock before and they are usually houses in limited that show up here and there in Standard in sideboards. Skullcrack is a great deal like Flames of the Bloodhand and Flames saw some play so it seems safe to say that Skullcrack will see some play too.

That's not the case at all. Not really. In sets from 3rd to Invasion Block you have things like quality hand destruction, mass land destruction (and 3 mana land destruction spells), other forms of mana denial, tutors, super good card draw, better counterspells, and the kid of acceleration they...

Well, the only reason I bother to go after X-ATM092 is because I always do things that I only learned were possible years later. I always save Cid in FF6 for the same reason. I didn't even know you could do that until I read it in a magazine long after the game was out. X-ATM092 is worth 50 AP...

I had been thinking about starting up FF8 again and this thread got me going on it. I couldn't quite remember how playing cards worked at the start. After the opening tutorials and get Ifrit you have access to Card, Refine Lightning, Refine Fire, Refine Ice, and Refine Mid Level Magic. I started...

Bad LoL Plays. I laughed like a damn hyena. http://youtu.be/TEHGO-LQXLY

One of Gau's Rage's uses Shock with the same animation. Aside from hacks that's as close as you are going to get.

As a kid playing FF1 I found what would later be called the Peninsula of Power while exploring and have always used it since to out level that awful marsh cave. That's about all you can do.

It is a legitimate complaint of the game that it allows a player to smash it over their knee before they've even seen another town without doing anything special. Unlock a couple GF abilities, play some cards, and refine some items and that's it. Even worse once you start to figure out the...

I'm going to just assume that you are right about Double because FF8 hasn't been in my PS1 in three years and I'm not about to head over to gamefaqs for this thread but it doesn't actually matter because it doesn't change the fact that Draw sucks and the better way to get magic is to play cards...

Bullshit. The only thing you have to figure out on your own is that using Draw sucks and playing cards is by far the best use of your time if you are trying to get magic. You don't have to optimize shit. Acquire the refinement abilities of the GFs that you have and then play cards rather than...

Every game store in my area that ever dabbled into comic books died a terrible death. Walking in and seeing a wall filled with comics is like finding a lump in the shower. I hope it all goes digital.

Who was it that told a bunch of stories of their EQ hookups on the other forums? Heading out to Arizona and banging a girl in a trailer park and finding out she stole his money and poked holes in his condoms and other crazy shit.

Hey man, the Walking Dead is popular! And I think We3 is being made in to a movie! And Crossed! And 30 Days of Night! And 300! And Kick Ass! And Sin City! And Wanted! And some of those aren't even shit! The superhero comic feels in trouble though. All of the recent cape comics I've liked...

It makes perfect sense and it is a plan that is both simple and elegant. With comics it is true that they are not a cash cow but the intellectual properties of comic book characters can be incredibly valuable. The purchasing of Marvel by Disney gave them a massive pool of characters to make...

That idea has logic I can follow so I am going to go with that over the people writing the comic have gone mad. It's still a pretty big Fuck You to the faithful readers of the comics if they are slowly shitting all over a beloved character due to a desire to regain the movie rights.

What bothers me isn't that Peter Parker is going to be tormented in Hell due to being irrevocably corrupted from his dealing with Mephisto or that Doctor Octopus is going to commit rape by fraud over and over and over. What bothers me is that part of the justification given for One More Day was...

Personally I can't do this shit anymore. The genre just doesn't feel like it is going anywhere. The part of me that gets any enjoyment out WoW and recycled mechanics of other MMOs has been burned out. Star Wars: The Old Republic was it. I'm not playing anymore WoW or anymore WoW clones or any...

Meanwhile Walmart is running out of guns to sell. What a strange road we are on these days.

I've left a shitfuck terrible movie and walked across the hall to see something else a few times. For some reason I thought Leatherheads looked alright so I went to see that. Halfway in I just left and saw something else that I can't remember. I also left something I can't remember to see 88...

I played it a bunch after the commercial release and stopped when it felt like I was just grinding. I tried going back to it later but the game actively prevented me from playing it. I thought the Jester sounded cool so I bought him. I was kicked from the first, second, and third games I...

Eclipse is one of my favorite games but one of the players in my group absolutely hates it and I don't ever want us to pick a game to play that one of us hates so it's off the table. He's got Twilight Imperium on lock and would play that but I don't know what the fuck I'm doing with that one...

And then Peter Parker went to Hell after having been irrevocably corrupted by his dealings with Mephisto while Doc Ock commits rape by fraud again and again and again and again.

When I took Logic the professor flat out told us to be the prior edition because he and the other professor for the class had gone through it every single question was the same. That's what started me going on buying older editions. There were a couple of situations where I really, really did...

The additional player expansion for the base game is a good thing to have.

I like the part of Evangelion where the studio ran out of money and characters stood around in elevators saying nothing and not moving. Art. I also really liked how at the end of the series Shinji has a major breakthrough but someone accidentally bumps the reset button for The End of Evangelion...

Quarriors does a bunch of things right. People like rolling dice, the dice are pretty, the art is fun, and the flavor is good. Today I played History of the World for the first time. http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/2...y-of-the-world It was five hours of Risk-esque territory control...

Every Wed at 4chan's /co/ subheading the newly released comics are all scanned and available for download on Mediafire. I've just been using them for years now.

I've kept current on it and yeah, it never gets any better. I didn't mind the cycle until I really recognized that the comic has this pattern of things stabilizing and looking alright to things going to total shit to thinks stabilizing and looking alright. The current antagonist almost yelled it...

His Wikipedia entry was way more detailed than Line Trap's but sadly it did not contain information about the smell and taste of his squirt. I'm going to guess from all Stern's grips covering their noses and mouths with their shirts and the dude Stern pays to lick the sybian gagging that Buck's...

Because I wasn't sleeping tonight anyway.

Buck Angel is a female to male transsexual who never underwent gender reassignment surgery so he's genetically female. Bailey Jay is a man with breast implants. That said I think I have to go with Line Trap. Howard Stern had Buck Angel on his show once. Buck road a sybian and squirted...

I really,reallylike IT but the thing is a headcracker. It kinda falls apart and it's weighted down by a whole mess of adolescent sex and sexual imagery. You will seriously wonder if there was/is some 12 year old redheaded girl that King wants/wanted to bang. Desperation isn't that great of a...

It's not a FF thread without a link to the Rise and Fall of Final Fantasy http://socksmakepeoplesexy.net/index.php?a=patff I especially like his FF11 experience.

Much like how I think Settlers of Catan is a great game to introduce new players to what the genre can offer I would highly recommend Lords of Waterdeep as an introduction to the sub-genre of worker placement games. In Lords of Waterdeep each player has a number of Agents determined by the...

A friend of mine made the guess that the Gatekeeper could be future Harry. I hope nothing like either of those ideas comes to pass.

Her refusal of the job offer doesn't mean thing. Murphy is a champion of good and wielder of Faith when necessary. She is the custodian of both it and Love. The wielder of the third sword is an agnostic. Murphy can tell herself whatever she wants. If it is needed for her to wield Faith she will...

Murphy already has taken up Faith. When it is the right time for her to wield it she wields it. That's all the other knights ever did.

I think that Salem's Lot ends pretty strong. It loops back to the beginning of the story and the two survivors go back and burn everything to the motherfucking ground. I picked up Full Dark No Stars and thought it was some of the worst shit of his I had ever spent money on. It's sitting on my...

Admit it Sean, it's a pretty fucking accurate picture.
