Man, funny jokes in this forum! But i agree, DOC was a disappointment. I only liked the character design. The kinda last boss that looked like Sephiroth had some dual gunblade action!

The demon owner badass Vergil is better than Dante or Vincent. His samurai sword is too cool and he just has the coolest clothes/moves. I got DMC3SE mainly cause of him. He has some crazy moves where he chops someone in one hit and when he sheathes his katana, they split apart :shocked: Evil has never looked so cool lol

hehe, yes, that fading screen and random combat was always a bit annoying :hehe:

OK, there is no chainsaw in Vegas, I must admit that :hehe:
But I think the gameplay was a little bit better than Gears.
And the multiplayer in Vegas is great!

i'm going to have to try that! But is it 2-player with one system or do i have to go online cause i dont have xbox live =\

sorry for my error.. its "FF7 is much better than FF8"
and no offense, but FF7 is really great compare to FF8 (please dont hate me) Victory! Peace!
but i agree to you that the ending of FF7 is really a letdown.. and FF8 ending is much nicer.. but for great plot/place/characters, FF7 owns it!.. and nothing will replace the great rivalry between Cloud and Sephiroth.. FF7 is on top!!!..

I must totally disagree. No offense!

FF7 was good but the plot was okay. The lifestream thing kinda ruined it for me. But it was still good. I liked FF8's gameplay better and their plot made a bunch more sense. Plus, I can see Squall as a down to earth real character as opposed to Cloud who just acts super cool everytime he walks into a room, hitting on 2 girls at the same time. Some of the characters were weird and seemed misplaced. I didn't learn much about Vincent and Yuffie (secret charcters). But in FF8, all the characters get some story dealt with them. It felt more real to me, trying to pass the seed exam and becoming a soldier! Now don't hate me..

But i'll admit, Cloud V. Sephiroth is the best rivaly in a videogame.

They're both bad-ass, in my opinion. And you talked about a rivalry just awhile ago, and I think the Dante-Vergil rivalry is much better. What do you think about Nero (DMC 4 Protagonist)?

FFVIII was very good. My only gripes about it is the story...

*First 60% of the game*

Squall: *What the hell is wrong with Rinoa... Can't she tell I don't like her? She gets on my nerves...*

*About 70% - ending*

Squall: ZOMG RINOA I AM SO FREAKIN' IN LOVE WITH YOU NOW, I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT I JUST INSTANTLY THOUGHT THAT WE'RE DESTINED FOREVER!!!1!!111!!

But overall, it's a very good game. One of my faves. :mrgreen:

I thought FF8 was better than FF7 when I play it, because I was in grade 5 or 6 when playing FF7. The story kinda hard to understand back then. But after I finish with FF9 I decided to replay it(and to get my revenge on Ruby weapon and the 1,000,000 hp undersea weapon) So that was the moment that made me realize that ff7 has the best story and the character composition is well balanced..

Agreed, the greatest rivalry in videogame is non other than those two

Oh yes, I remember that one. Took me hours finding and killing it :hehe:

I think itLs only working with Xbox Live. No spiltscreen or anything.
Are you going to ger a 360? Let me know that I can add you to my buddy list and kill you from time to time in Vegas :hehe:

EA released their Command & Conquer 3 demo!

the cheesy FMV is returns with Kane, and so does the general - WITH a somewhat cute asian assistant :hehe:

just played the first 2 missions, and it's fun: just like C&C, but somehow it's missing the Westwood feel to it, now it's all presentation blockbuster EA all over it.

Until now i've never get the chance to kill that emerald weapon undersea.. its just plain crazy.. :doh:

OMG OMG! I forgot! I love Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2. It's all about conventional warfare. I just can't play any 3-d ones like generals on my comp. I like those cheesy movies with real people. They took them out in generals but it made the storyline a lot more fun =) I wish I could play the new one. Sounds great. I think it'd be better if they went back to 2-d!

Dante and Vergil is cool but Cloud and Seph have some bitter hate after Seph killed someone that's apparently very important. Vergil just kills everything in his path with samurai style haha. He makes bad guys look cool!

I dont know much about Nero apparently... He looks cool but im just waiting for news about Vergil cause the creators said he's still "important". Whatever that means..

darn you!!

I noticed that everyone in my state (mostly) like FF8 better than 7. But i always tell them that online/boards, everyone likes FF7 better. They're like "Whatttt???" And now it's happening again...

Squall gradually liked Rinoa! It's cause she needed some saving and she was hurt really easy throughout the story. Squall knows how to pick his women when they're most vulnerable :hehe:

noooo.. starcraft was cool but then it has troop limits and stuff and then the variety wasn't interesting. I like tanks and ships and commandos and nuclear bombs. The weird aliens just werent cutting it for me. And i think the game doesn't give me a face paced feeling.

Well I don't know, but I played the game several times already and it felt like he loved her "out of the blue". Yes he gradually liked her but it felt rushed though. It would have been much better if they they put more effort on the love story, since it's the game's theme anyway. But I like the game, it's my 3rd fave FF..

And the Laguna thing. You do know about that right? Actually, it's not after 5 years since I first played the game, that I actually "realized"... You know what I'm talking about? :mrgreen:

To each his own, I guess. But Starcraft is very good because it's the most balanced RTS I've ever played. It won several awards at the time. And its still very popular til now, more particularly in South Korea.

For me FF 8 its 3rd too..
Btw its like for 1/3 of the game that I realized that we could use the r1 button as Squall attack to trigger the gun.. :doh:
What do you mean with Laguna?? :headscratch:

What kind of shooter would that be helping ech other out *lol*
But you yould play a coop game like in GoW together :mrgreen:
Why no getting online with the 360? I mean if you can already afford the console itself the monthly Xbox Live costs are nothing compared ;-)
I am fortunate that I got lifetime free full X-box Live membership :mrgreen:
