I knew there was alot of final fantasy games and shit, but half of these i haven't heard of.
pixel
I know, damn I'm so confused i can barely make it all the way down the scream to post.
pixel
Don't you mean screen, not scream or is that how its supposed to be?
pixel
yeah, i meant screen. It was a gramatical error.
My bad.
pixel
no prob. Whats your fave ff game?
pixel
of course, the one and only ff8. ff7 wasn't a bad game either, but ff tactics was probably one of the worst ff games ever.

just so happened, i read your profile, turns out you're a girl. That's why you stood up for tank-girl when i made that chick comment. good for you, good looking out.
pixel
I love ff8 as well, we'er like ff8 buddies that so cool (and now your probably thinking "what an insane idiot")
pixel
I am thinking that FFT was the greatist game in the world. The stratigies and game play really made you think and the fighting was much better then jumping across the screen and hitting some one. Also the storie line was amazing. I found that it was a new spin on the whole one person to destroy the world and such.
pixel
the story line was pretty good but the game still sucks. I don't care what anybody says but ff8 was the best ff game that has come out today.

and i'm not thinking you're insane. some people need friends. (like me) Welcome to the club, Tribal
pixel
How the fuck do you guys double post at the same bloody time. And by the way ill be your friend puddin77, and i think that ff8 has the best opening out of all the ff games.
staff

You're saying that FF8 is the best regardless of contentious refutation. If that's the case, why are you talking about it in the first place? Mentioning something on a site where people publicly post is just inviting discussion. Sounds more like something for (urrk) MySpace.
pixel
ha demosthenes(damn its hard to type your name) at least i have friends.

and i do know about your recent promotion and all.
staff
pixel
I'm glad you have friends. Also, I'm glad that I have friends, and that I can establish a comprehensible train of thought. I don't exactly know why you mentioned my promotion, but hey, it's not my hard drive space.
pixel
well at least you two know whats going on coz i dont (in my mental state of being brainless maybe the result of this hang-over).
staff
pixel
Dude I an ;iek soooooooooooooooooooo000[ droumnlk right no2w Lol'l;
pixel
step away from the pc. and tribal you've got to give yourself some recognition and have some self pride. You're one of my friends and that means a lot in todays world. (I mean just look at rahaul.)
staff
pixel
"rahaul"?
pixel
Ok the first step to self pride is: ????????????????
ok help me here!
pixel
believing in yourself, and rahul you know what i meant.
pixel
Where have you been? you just left me!
pixel
sorry, i couldn't get in touch with a computer. I won't leave you again, you have my word.

I also have another problem, it's kinda personal so(with all due respect) i would appreciate it if you kept all the negative aspects and replies out of this. Here's the story....


it all started in second grade, when me and my best friend met this girl who he really liked, so (because he is my best friend) i followed along. Fast foward a little bit to a couple weeks later, my best friend tells me he likes this girl, but (here's the problem)i've grown to like her too.

Fastfoward again to the 11th grade...

my best friend still is madly obsessed with this girl and so am I. But, soon later my best friend decides to put her aside and dates some other girl. (Now i know what you're all thinking, "this is your chance now or never") Same thing i thought, but it turns out she has a boyfriend and has also been happy with him for months now.

Fastfoward again to just recentely...

my best friend breaks up with the other girl and now wants the girl i want back. Now here's the big question, "what the hell do i do?" I want her so bad, but I don't want to crush the hopes and dreams of my best friend?

I personally told you all this because you guys are the only freinds i have (besides my group of friends). I would appreciate it greatly if Tribal posted first, thank you for reading my long ass post! (I'm sorry if you got bored and fell asleep somewhere in there).

SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!

Dude, get a fucking forum account. No one cares about your personal life in the comments for the Square Enix E3 press conference (and if they do, they can also get a goddamn forum account, cause this is some off-topic shit).
pixel
So. rahul your insulting everyones mom in the other review. And he is talking to me and if we like to post on the comment line than thats our buisnes. Right, 'puddin77' it all depends on how close of a friend you are with the girl, and that you should get to know both sides of her (the in class side and the out of school side) get to know what she likes and doesn't like. don't worry to much about your friend (keep his feelings in mind though)you have to make the first move before your friend does. like become close to her not to close just try not to be around all the time coz that will just get annoying. Become friends enough that when or if she breaks up with her boyfriend she can trust you to be there for her and if she wants to get back with him help her to (this may sound dumb but....)
if she gets back with him and shes not happy than she knows that his not right and may think that you are the person she wants to be with (this doesn't always work so if it doesn't than don't blame me if you try it)
staff
pixel
Look, I'll try it again.

Stop talking about irrelevant crap in the news comment threads. Use the forums. I am going to delete your posts if you keep it up. If you can't be bothered to get forum accounts, get each other's AIM handles and talk on there. But stop spamming this tripe here.
pixel
Damn Rahul, chill out. i was only asking one question(it's somewhere in that summary). But Tribal is right, i was only talking to her, don't be such a dick and stop talking about people's mothers. (With all due respect.) and another thing, if you haven't noticed, nobody's talking about the E3 2006: press conference.(again with all due respect)

Truly and Honestly, I thank you Tribal, I will use your interesting and well thought out ideas. But, don't worry, if your suggestions don't work, I won't blame you. It's my fault its gotten this far. Maybe, if I was just more a man,like Rahul,it probably wouldn't have gotten this far.

*Chuckles to himself*

oh, and one more thing(just to keep the party going) I found one bad ass quote,(courtesy of Quizilla.com)
"If you wait for me, Then I'll come for you. Although I've travelled far, I always hold a place for you in my heart. If you think of me, If you miss me once in a while, then i'll return to you. I'll return and fill that space in your heart." (Sounds like some Kingdom Hearts shit, huh?)

"Don't be such a dick (with all due respect)!"
How is this even a discussion? I'm telling you to stop. It's as simple as that.
pixel
your mean, rahul. im only tring to help a friend, you wont have any if you act like that. (but you are right about the irrelevant dicussion even though puddin77 has a point to 'he just asked a ouestion) by the way puddin77 if you look at my account you can get my piczo web site and we can use the comment line there to talk about "irrelevant" shit ok. oh and rahul if you look up at the posts you will see that puddin77 and i are the only ones who comment. even though i can see your point.
pixel
hey, tribal, i put everything in your Piczo guestbook (just in case you can't find it). But, really Rahul, stop being such an ass. And we'll see who posts here now.(with all due respect)
staff
pixel
I'll post now. You're both strange. Stop posting random crap in news comments.
pixel
puddin77 you had open your big mouth didn't ya. jokes
