Games: What games are you currently playing? [OT!]

I just beat 7. It's easily the worst FF I've played. I was expecting some big plot twist at the end of the game to make it cool, but isntead, it was still: let's kill Sephiroth! And I love how 7 fanboys say 10 sucks because it's too straightforward! hmm...

7's plot: Shinra bad. (Lame) Sephiroth bad! (Lame) Aeris die. (Plot go up!) Cloud go crazy. (plot get cool!) Kill Sephiroth! (plot get lame again) Every human dies. End! (Square's way of trying to make the plot decent) </div><hr size="1"></blockquote>

Story sucks. materia system sucks, makes magic useless excet for stuff like ultima. game is easy. Sidequests aren't that fun.

Out of the FF's I've played:
1. FF6
2. FFX-2
3. FFX
4. FF9
5. FF5
6. FF7

Eh Xellos, I didn't really not like any FF, FF8 was an eh in my opinion but I really liked FF7. Music was great, Materia wasn't a bad way of magic distribution (but what made me mad was the ultimate weapons couldn't charge it) and the story was basic, but still somewhat interesting.

Just because there wasn't a huge twist at the end doesn't mean it sucked. Personally, the huge twist is a clich?. Nice to see a lack of one.

Also - Xellos, play FF4 for crying out loud. It's a great game, it's actually hard! What? A hard final fantasy? GET OUT OF HERE! (simpsons reference &gt;.&gt ; )

Make sure it's FF4j2e, not FF2. Easy as shit, released back in the day when folks in Japan assumed that gamers in the Americas sucked.

I have FF4, I'm gonna play it after I beat a few other RPGs (namely Wild Arms 3, which I've had delayed for a year &gt;_&gt [img]wink.gif[/img]

It's not that the game didnt' have a twist at the end, it's that the plot sucked up til the end, adn they could give something to make it decent.

Magic was useless, as Cloud was doing 9999 every turn with regular attacks. The only magic worth using was Ultima.

I've never thought that any FF was an amazing RPG, except for 6 and maybe X-2.

I'm replaying Goldeneye, baby. I've played some of the original Rogue Squad too.

[Xellos]

The first 2 Rogue Squadron games are such good games... the third one sucks however

I still need to try out the third. The second one was too easy IMO.

[Xellos]

the third one sucks. Half the levels are UBER lame ground levels. it's one of the few games I sold back to the store within a month of buying it.

[Nevan]

I see, I'll probably rent before I buy.
