Playing

woah, there’s a been a veritable flurry of posts this week, and for some reason this surprise me even though i wrote them. So basically the last few scribbles have been tv screen orientated and i’m not going to buck that trend now unfortunately. I would say it’s a winning formula but no-one reads this anyway.

I finally started playing Final Fantays XII yesterday and after a 7 hour stint I have a few complaints. Don’t get me wrong, i’m a huge fan of the series, in fact if Aerith Gainsborough were here right now i’d happily make love to her sweet, polygon body, cuboid breasts and all.

(gagging for it)

Here are a selection of my favourite complaints thus far:
– far too linear, where the hell has my world map gone? (yeahhh i know 12 and 10 didn’t have them but at least i could explore)
– So what…Vanille is English right? / Australian right? / American right? / Mentally retarded right? / Irritating as shit right?

Seriously, I am majorly vexed by Vanille, but fortunately she absorbs the brunt of hatred which would otherwise be directed at the terribly (and ironically) named Hope, whose constant moaning is doing my head in. He also keeps squaring up to a 6ft behemoth of a man, Snow – yeah the character naming crew were all on holiday – and alsways bottles telling him what’s what; in fact Snow interprets this as affection. Jeez.

Meet Hope:

Now meet what Hope should have been:

Now that would have been sick, but alas time to go grind.
