..?

8? I don't remember it... although I'm certain it was in 7, and the rerelease of 4 on Playstation had it (it was called the Crystal sword in the SNES version, I think).

I think it was also in 9, though that I'm unsure of.


I can't easily say anything on individual weapons, but I had one equipment set for males in FFT that gave nearly every commonly used positive status in that game.

Chaos Blade (Regen)
Excalibur (Haste)
Robe of Lords (Protect + Shell)
and Angel Ring (Reraise).

So, since it's up there in that set, I'm gonna go with the Chaos Blade for this one. Auto-Regen, the strongest weapon in FFT, and it had a chance to Petrify enemies on contact.

SMAS: Remakes. Thus, not a different game.

SMA: Remake. Same game again.

See, remove remakes from the list and he's in only one game.

I can't. Has the address changed, or is something wrong with my computer?

Posted on 08-09-04 06:22 PM, in Good idea to make a bigger seperation between normal and stickied threads? Link
I have one working eye - and I use the term "working" loosely - and I can still easily see the difference between a sticky and a normal thread, even on a higher resolution.

But does it matter? Even if it would help, chances are it'd never be added anyway. There's more important things to worry about, I'm sure, than the space between normal and sticky threads.

Posted on 08-10-04 12:07 AM, in What would you do if you knew that the world is going to end in less than 24 hours? Link
I'd hear about it, mutter to myself "I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner" and probably let my overwhelming laziness take over - I'd go to sleep.

That, or I'd join the "festivities," those being the looting and riots.



Now, what I'd WANT to do is another story. But 24 hours isn't long enough to find someone you haven't seen in a few years, y'know?

While I don't mind him being the star of so many games - as you said, it is the Mario series - I think that the other characters should have bigger roles. Game technology has improved, Toad can have more use than a simple advice box. Luigi can actually appear in a game as a playable character. Peach doesn't need to be rescued in every game (although Bowser's methods of kidnapping are sometimes interesting. Like hijacking the castle, in Paper Mario. ). So why DON'T they give the characters bigger roles?


Ziff: Yep, big mistake. Best way to fix it, IMO, would be to forget about him. But, apparently not many agree with me.

As it didn't get answered the first time, it's safe to assume that we don't know yet.


Don't rush it. The longer it takes, the more time can be taken to make sure everything works right and is easy to use for lazy people. Like me.

Which is one of the main reasons I won't be getting this, sadly. That's something I can't do anything about, due to lacking money. Were it not for that, I probably would. (heck, three people in this house would play it. Me, mom, and dad. )

Then there's Peach. Peach has nothing. Zero, in my opinion. She's really the most hollow Mario character, just the appreciative damsel in distress. SMRPG showed she could really kick some ass, but there wasn't enough about her aside from a liking for sneaking around that I saw. Definitely needs more of an active role.


Sneaking around? That was Paper Mario. You probably just forgot to clarify, but...

If I remember, Nintendo was originally planning on putting him in. And besides, people fall for fake screenshots ALL the time.

Because they're lazy.

Personally, I don't really care - I'm surprised I got any votes for anything, really.



And I'm sure HSD wants to get the Most Perverted category right - after all, that's always been one of the closer races.

Posted on 08-11-04 04:15 AM, in What has become a huge problem for me... Link
I eat dinner. Sometimes breakfast or lunch.

I'l also about five-fifteen pounds underweight, but I've noticed no real problems. No fear of gaining weight - I openly acknowledge I need to - I just don't ever really feel like eating, and when I do sit down to eat I have almost no appetite.


THat said, the situation you're in sounds even worse. If nothing else, at least eat dinner and a small lunch, or just a large dinner. Work up to at least two normal meals a day, eventually. One should be enough, but probably not healthy. (although it seems that the more I eat the more often I become sick, that's probably school food. )

Okay, so I'm just sitting around watching a war? That won't do at all. Not at all...

Cheveyo turns around, to the soldiers behind him. "Sir! Chemical missile ready for launch!"

A cold grin spreads across his face. "Go ahead. Fire."

The computer in front of his chair begins beeping a bit. "Target found. Knuksly's base. Fire?"

Cheveyo presses the Little Red Button, and the missile fires...



What? I figured I'd make the average post length a little longer. Oh, and yes, I have my own army. Surprised?

Hmm... Multiple C64s - smaller and easier to load, so more can be fired quicker - vs one huge-ass computer. Well... may as well add a few things to the mix.

*loads a disc gun with a bunch of CDs, begins randomly firing at Smallhacker and Knuksly - yes, I plan on repeatedly attacking Knuksly, then throws a brick at Gywall*

Use common sense, you just don't attack a large military force and a small group of soon-defeated fools... You attack two small groups of soon-defeated fools. It's easier.

I liked the game, I won't lie about it. But I still think it's overrated. There's too many people who think that it's the best game ever made, and that nothing can beat it, yet it has so many - some very obvious - flaws. But no one really seems to notice them except me.

Still a great game, just a little overrated.
