Last night i was thinking about Final Fantasy(in a HUGE fan) in 3d and how the series has just gone to hell since theyve made it 3d. I havent played ff9, but it looks like a nice game. I was thinking about if Square made a "final fantasy classic" where it was classic 2d, but it would have 2d graphics that would make you sh1t yourself(on x-box mabee??). All the classic ff stuff could be done that couldnt be done in 3d(just play ff5 and youll see what i mean). Hell, i might even contact square for a suggestion and make a petition thing to see how many people would like it.

Well, I'm a pretty big Final Fantasy fan myself, and I think they are doing the right thing with the Final Fantasy movie. I don't think the traditional Final Fantasy plots would really make a lot of sense in a movie.

I have played every single Final Fantasy game, including all 3 FF Legends. I have even played FF2, FF3, and FF5, which were never released to the US. And, I have to say that right now I am playing FF9, and it's the best of all of them. If you want 2D looking settings (yes it's in 3D, but the art is very 2D looking), as well as the traditional FF plot, you will definately like FF9. I suggest you play it first before you start your petition. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

It also has a lot of past characters, including Antlion, Matoya, and Garland (bet you never thought you'd see these characters again). Another important thing is the character development, which was really starting to lag in FF7 and FF8. The good news is that in FF9, it's back to the way it used to be, with characters that are very easy to get along with. If you are a fan of the old school FF, then you should try FF9.

Now this is completely off topic, and I appologize, but I felt I needed to respond to Zombor. Thanks for the patience.

I could have sworn I saw that a couple of months ago, but yeah, I'll be in line for that one. It looks some sweet.

This is the theatrical trailer to a new movie by Columbia Pictures and Squaresoft, LTD (the makers of Final Fantasy the video game for Playstation). It is an entirely 100% 3D generated movie, and I have to say, it looks better than real life. I am speachless, and I'm sure you will be, too. However, when you remember how to talk again, please respond to this regarding what you think.

There is a downloadable copy here. http://www.thegia.com/movies/ffmovie...iemedia13.html

Trust me on this one: you will be amazed, and those of you who aren't completely current on the marvels of today's 3D rendering techniques will very likely sh*t their pants. I for one plan on being there opening night. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

Hey, Alex... it's nice to hear from you. You've been strangly absent from the forums recently. Probably busy getting all those articles out, eh?

Those PSOne's are pretty cheap, you know. I think you can get one for $89US these days.

If you want to emulate, though, the best one out there is Bleem!. However, even that doesn't emulate 100%, so I would spring for the PSOne to get the full experience. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

Too bad it won't take advantage of the PS2. I just picked one up and have been playing Tekken Tag and Midnight Club. FF never fails to impress me, and it would be cool to see it on the PS2.

[sorry, i was referring to the new FF game coming out soon https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif]

Ciao!

Heya Arcadian,

Yeppers with Comdex, the P4 and a few things going on behind the scenes (meaning site changes like the indexes), I've not been on anywhere near as much as I'd like. I've stopped by sometimes to see what's shakin' though.

Anyways run for cover cos' I'm back now https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

Thanks for flying with us, we know you have a choice...

BTW replied to you on one of the other boards (CPUs I think?) regarding the P4 overclocking. Looks like it has plenty of headroom. All I need now is an 850 from ASUS or Abit to get some work done https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

Yeah, I read your reply. I look forward to seeing your results. https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

Nice to see you back, too.

By the way, are you that pink haired fellow in the pictures in the Pentium 4 review? It would be nice to associate a face with a name.

You and me both https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif I don't remember the last time a CPU could jump 100MHz "just like that". It seemed to have plenty of headroom left in it. And the way it's designed it's supposed to be frequency friendly.

Glad to be back. Yep, that's me alright. It was a Halloween thing but it's over now. There are other pictures lurking around on the site or in the about us section.

After you mentioned an "About Us" section, I was sort of curious, so I tried to find it. It seems to be hiding, though. Is it on your front page?

This is awesome... what made them think it could be done?


------------------
Before you bash in the door... check to see if it's unlocked already

your right, i did almost sh*t myself. That was amazing!

as for when it will be possible on a desktop game the problem will stem from content design not from hardware ability https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/06/5.gif

as it is were jumping 1000 times in power and memory every 15 years (remember the commodore 64?) the problem will be making the characters not rendering them once made

just my 13.2 billion

Um dude is it SUPPOSED to shoot flame like that?
