well, i'm a geek and my girlfriend loves me, so, let there be hope for suckers like mesame here. well, maybe. i'm not sure i belong with the geeks.
well, you definitely made a wrong choice about what do you want to get.you are trying to make a forum love you. how strange is that?It means you're one step away from being loved. To attain that status, you need to give up your life.Don't be fooled. I had no life long before this forum acknowledged that fact.
Does that mean I'm already loved, but the forum software doesn't acknowledge that yet, or am I just trying to flatter myself
I'm a sad and lonely person, I have to take what I can get.

Don't all threads like this just end on a mutual agreement that more recent FF games suck? (i.e. everything after X)
In fact Final Fantasy XII was imho the same thing, a bunch of "slapped on" synopsis masquerading as "deep story".ff12 is set up in universe where vagrant story and final fantasy tactics also happen. so i cannot help but keep comparing one to another.
ashe, penelo, balthier + bonus yiazmat summon and i'm sold. but who will fill the shoes of the bad guy? vayne's first form (still human shaped with his 6 floating swords) might fit.Will there be Vaan?
Lets hope not. I can do without the most terribly boring main character in the history of final fantasy
not to mention the he constantly and i mean CONSTANTLY looks like he's crying
One way to make a game harder and fun at same time is to introduce puzzles. FFX had Cloister of trials (but that is just 1) and I loved that but Breath of Fire III imho beats any FF game hands down in terms of some of its gameplay.harder yes, more fun - NO.
FF games could add little things like puzzles without the need to be grinding and battling.
If you get pissed off at someone and want to blow their brains out, get on a game, like Delta Force Xtreme 2, jump on a server, and imagine that one of the people there is the person you're pissed at. Then go trigger happy, you'd be amazed at how well it helps to deal with the stress.it only works if you are good at a game. and online games are full of those crazy no-lifes that will destroy you twice in 5 seconds. no fun in that
Yes, violent video games can provoke aggression in some, but for others, like me, it is a medication for aggression. I have psychologists orders NOT to quit playing violent video games because of my history of anger issues, and this is coming from an ARMY psychologist. Getting pissed off and want to kill someone? Jump in a game and do it! There are a lot of people out there like me who self-medicate on violent video games, it is a much healthier way for one to deal with anger compared to the alternative (getting a gun and going "postal").in my case it's not the violent games, but frustrating ones.
Games are, now days, like alcohol used to be.well alcohol is dangerous. because it makes people more aggressive. some games also do, but that depends on the person.
Remember? Government thought it was dangerous, people loved it, government banned it, people went apeshit, government allowed it again.

I'm actually taking some time to watch the FFX review.harsh, but very true. i liked the part about anti-magic field in ff8 prison. and moments later you can use magic in battle in the very same area. he pretty much nailed it.
Part 2. I find it interesting how he takes the mick out of Wakka and Seymour's hairstyles. He's got a pretty poor hairstyle himself
Not defending FFX. All in all, his review is harsh, but hilarious, especially the "ass count" thing he's doing
actually if your headphones jack is very loosely plugged into the port (so that the stereo is a bit messed up) you can hear mp3 artifacts very clearly, even on high quality files. it happened to me a few times.I like vinyls better than CDs. I just find a warmth to the sound that I can't seem to find with anything elseat least there is a way to differentiate vinyl sound from cd - vinyl has that analog noise. telling apart cd and well-compressed mp3/aac/whatever file is very difficult.
Agreed. There's 2 methods to that imo. 1) Have a damn good ear (thankfully good hearing runs in my family) 2) Spectral Analysis
My desktop images changes quite often (no idea. are you asking about wallpaper or that dude on the icons ?) so here is another one. In about a week, if this thread isn't dead, I may post another.
Can anyone guess who that is on my screen?

Nice. I can't stand KDE4, I like the concept, don't like the application. I also think it runs like crap. I'm partial to e17 to be honest, if only it wasn't so damn glitchy... Stupid beta softwareif e17 finally gets a decent tray support i will also give it a shot. i don't like the general impression of slugginess that kde4 desktop has, even if the software has a pretty reasonable resource footprint. the various side apps are great, though (love okular and gwenview)
