    Lol! I have my own version of ordered chaos so I totally get this! XD

    Thanks man! I got a couple of the gold and silver ones in my hlj pw for zaku heat axes. Love the idea of having two-toned silvers using the sharpies that mike mentioned. Will look for those as well

    Lol. I just found out that it's a remastered psp game. XD all the info you need is up on ign or wikia.

    Hmm... Coming up for air used to be a different sort of thing entirely. Mixed feelings after 2 chapters of ff type-0 hd. Generally and tentatively: Story 7/10 nothing really new here, just typical 'warring states'; some early clues on possible plot twists and layers of mysteries Graphics 8/10 sharp and no pop ups or clipping; black loading screens between major areas though Character design 8/10 lots of homages to previous characters, seifer, cid, auron, as well as common stereotypes (ok but not wow mech design so far) Character development 8/10 may improve as the upgrade trees diverge further later on; fairly basic menu-driven ap distribution/allocation scheme to learn abilities and magic; upgrading magic spells is more detailed using parameters like power, mp cost, casting time, etc (differs per spell; also uses a different pool of points) Gameplay 8/10 definitely promising with more active battle control of the party leader, feels like Vagrant Story with camera angles that can hamstring you sometimes (lock on to your target!); missions can be replayed independently (outside of the storyline) from the main menu, and difficulty settings can be set for each mission (also true following the storyline). The initial areas feel a lot like Squall's academy in VIII, complete with the kid running around the paths lol. Very interesting and well worth playing. I kinda miss the 'getting the band together' phase, since you start with a big team. Will play on!

    I've taken a bath, got enough Chinese takeout for a block party, and set up my automatic off work email replies. I'm going in. If I don't post anything in a week, send Natalie Portman. =)

    Lol Hal! Destroids are apparently not part Irish.
  7. McFly!!
    That almost makes me feel better about the one I got with a broken leg fin. Almost.

    Lol well the vaj continuously make their own missiles...

    Man I really wanted to. Doing my taxes. Just took a quick break. I did check the stuff though. Bummed out because my copy of the manga had 3 pages with half-inch tears. Sent square enix's pepita store an email and posted a pic on twitter. Dl'd the demo for ff xv already, I think it's still not done though. Art book looks ok but a bit small and it's not even faux leather bound, so also disappointing for the price. Other extras are the cards of the eidolons/summon creatures. I'm keeping those sealed in the bag. Bottom one's Ifrit, same pic as in the art book. Soundtrack audio cd looks interesting. I'll check it out if any tracks stand out during gameplay.

    Hahaha! God provides! =)
  11. McFly!!
    That does look great man! What did you use to paint it? I'm thinking of using a gundam marker
  12. McFly!!
    Thanks for the tips, mike! I'll practice on action bases and gundam kits first to work up the courage! XD
  13. McFly!!
    Yup, anime magic! Could they have been from a mobile SAM installation? I remember that they also showed tanks firing at the vajs
  14. McFly!!
    I'm considering getting a wii u just to play Monolith's xenoblade chronicles x, which some consider to be directly linked to xenogears. Don't even want to think about whether they'll remaster it for nx when that rolls out. Also, ign livestreamed the ff xv demo gameplay earlier. Didn't catch most of it but from what I saw, a lot of references were made to ff vi (the one with Locke the thief), including the first summon demigod - Ramuh (?). Can't wait to get mine!!! Edit: just picked up ff type 0 from the post office!!!
  15. McFly!!
    Wow! Painting the pilots seems similar to painting on a grain of rice! Great work, nekko! Also lol'd at convoy defending the shelf, mike! Thanks!
  16. McFly!!
    Hahaha! Lol'd for real on this one! Happy St. Patrick's day hahaha!
  17. McFly!!
    You're a brave man, derex! Post pics please! =)
  18. McFly!!
    Yup agreed!
  19. McFly!!
    Aside from the first episode where alto ran out of gunpod ammo (which served a plot purpose), I don't recall any other instances where ammo was an issue (even when they were using conventional rifles against the juvy vajs).
  20. McFly!!
    I'm in the same boat, actually. X was the last one I cared to complete complete. You remember IX (that one with the monkey boy)? That was the shark jump for me. Then XII (that one with the hot cat-chick and the 'gambit system' and licenses) seemed like a good step forward, but not a big enough one. I'm hoping that type 0 and xv revitalize the franchise. =)
