I have been falling behind on squealing about the impending Crystal Bearers release because I keep saying "oh I will throw that into that big Crystal Chronicles pimping post I plan on doing"

By the way planning on pimping the Crystal Chronicles series.

ANYWAY I've been creepin' on the Neo GAF thread for the game, and someone has been posting screenshots from their japanese copy of the game, and I think this really speaks for itself:



That would be a moogle in sunglasses jammin' on a chocobo electric guitar. With flames on it.

( More FFCCCB Stuff Under Here )

Hyadain did an Ultros song!



My favorite is still Rap de Chocobo, though.

Ssssssooo, screenshots of chocobos in FFXIII were released.

( Wark the fuck!? )

HAHAHAHAHAHA DISSIDIA FANDOM GOT TROLLED GOOD

BY A FRENCH GUY.

My god! Blurry cam pics of what must surely be a Japanese gaming magazine turn up in the comm!

The Reveal!

Note that I was thoroughly had. However the fact that this was done by a guy who renders bushy 'staches onto Cloud and Squall is 1010% okay with me.

Good show, I say. Good show.

That picspam meme that riley_boi did, only this is 99.99999% Final Fantasy IX.

( I didn't bother to resize them )

Adkfjdkahdkja S-E WHAT

Bon Jovi's We Weren't Born to Follow to be used in Crystal Bearers adverts

Somehow, I feel that needs to be paired with this screenshot:

\o\ More Crystal Bearers screenshots have been released!!! /o/!!!!!

( picspam! )

Completed the Summon Compendium in Dissidia \o/!

. . . And with that, I've more or less played the game out. I suppose I could actually go to the trouble of leveling up the other characters, beating Inward Chaos, etc.; but I don't feel particularly inclined to do so.

There is the continual lure of funny screenshots, though.

Anyway, Mostly Final Thoughts:

Mmm my sleep schedule is all messed up. For some reason that means that it's Dissidia screencap spam time.

Today's theme is Pretty Whitehaired Boys.

I returned from Orange County to find this new Crystal Bearers trailer:



omg

PERHAPS I WILL DO A TRIP write up later, but short version is hotel sucked, half of Disneyland was closed (Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain), there were Santa Anas ( translation: "mom and I had migranes") and I tore through three stupid urban fantasy books and I need to find the fourth one :x

But I got a lot of "Happy Birthdays" and free gelato and I had fun. So.

Anyway watch that Crystal Bearers trailer. Aaaaaaah ♥

Because there's no way I'm finishing the coloring on this while it is still the 21st of September:

( Remember how the stars stole the night away )

I've fought something in the realm of 300 battles in the Duel Colosseum and I have just now received my first Great Serpent's Fang. I need like 3 to make the Sargantanas, which I will in turn need to make the Tower.

Which I need to grind in the Colosseum for Great Beast Fangs.

Dissidia why do you hate Zidane's equipment, seriously.

ker-Edit: Description of the Summoner's Horn loot says "they regrow as they age"

o_O

OKAY it is no secret that Final Fantasy VII is not my favorite of Final Fantasies. It's not even in my top 10.

BUT

xxfaithlessxx @ Deviant Art has this FF7 Wild West AU concept ... thing going on. Gallery Here. She claims not to be good at the whole fanfiction thing, so the story's summary is coming in bits in the descriptions. CHECK IT OUT I AM EATING THIS UP.

Crystal Bearers dated for 12/26 in North America!!!

Prediction: Belle will rock my socks off.

So remember how I've been maining Zidane in Dissidia and got him up to level 100, etc.

I have just discovered how to use his branching Brave to HP attacks. Holy shit he is a beast.

Now I have to grind for AP to master them. O, Dissidia how you still manage to be a Final Fantasy.

The downside to this, of course, is that as it's a PSP-based fighter, it's not likely that I'll be playing in matches against other human players (or assuming I figure out the online thing, "human players in the same room as I am.") The most fun in fighting games is derived from playing it with other people, especially those who aren't tournament-types. So actually learning all the ins and outs of the game isn't as satisfying as it could be.

Oh well, there is always trying to get Tidus to throw those damn moogles.

I HAVE BEEN SLAMMING MY BALLS IN ULTIMECIA'S FACE FOR 30 MINUTES AND I'M STILL NOT SEEIN' MOOGLES

I can't find my copy of Breath of Fire III. This saddens me greatly.

Unlocked Inward Chaos in Dissidia, also known as "HAHA YOU SUCK AT THIS GAME" mode. I did manage to aquire the moogle summon out of sheer force of luck (t-thank you, Magic Pot), though, so now I can work on confirming or denying that whole "Tidus tosses moogles randomly" rumor.

Although I'm a little disappointed that I didn't do it with Terra, since she gets a special scene with the moogle. I love that they capitalized on that bit of VI apocrypha.

Also Benjamin sent me a letter from Guadosalam. Aaaahhh this game.

For the record, I tried really hard to be disinterested in FFXIII. But that is failing me. Now they've gone and added adorable kids on me.

1. ZIDANE LEVEL 100

2. My tablet is most definitely broken

3. ... But Dad lends me his and it works!
