The Blackangel

The only time they are scripted to be apart is the beginning of disc 2. Laguna is living in Winhill. Kiros has been searching for him and finds him there. they do a patrol of the town and that's pretty much it for the end of that flashback. In literally every other flashback, the 3 of them are always together. So far anyway. But the flashback that has me confused happened at the beginning of disc 3 when Rinoa was unconscious. Ellone accidentally sent Squall and 2 of your choice back while she was asleep to a point when Laguna, Kiros, and Ward were in the Trabia mountains. They were out of money and Laguna managed to land a part in a movie. Kiros and Ward were asked to play the part of the dragon because the original actor was sick. But this time when I got to that point, Ward wasn't in it. It was only Laguna and Kiros. In all the years I've been playing this game, that has never once happened. They were and are always together. So I'm completely lost as hell.

The compatibility I’m seeing is only for Apple products. iPhone’s and iPad’s. But considering the game itself, unless Apple made a hell of a deal with Nintendo, I would expect it to be available on both at some point.

I can see it now: "Coming soon to a store near you: it's SJW Throwdown! The ultimate in forcing your kids to be a worthless piece of shit. From EA Sports."

Ok something that has never happened before is going on and I need to know what the hell is up. I just got onto the 3rd disc. I'm in the flashback where Laguna was in the movie and fighting the dragon. The thing that's throwing me is that Ward is nowhere to be seen, or even being mentioned. It's only Laguna and Kiros. In all the years that I've played this game, this has never once happened before. The 3 of them were always together with the exception of in Winhill. Did I fuck up somewhere, or is there some other explanation? This is confusing as hell. The only other time this game has screwed with my head like this was last year when, for the first time ever, I learned that the damn bite bugs can fly up and fart on you. I know they fart on you because the attack bar on top of the screen that tells you what the attack is when it's not a standard physical attack says "FART".😒

Oh come on, Gangnam Style is awesome. Blasphemy, damn you! Blasphemy! Your penance: 5,000,000 Hail Skyrims! I do have to say however that the redneck in the elevator frightens me.

Conker. All you have to do is play Conker's Bad Fur day for all of 5 minutes and his cynicism and sarcastic nature will show in spades.

I always got a kick out of Cotton Eye Joe. In small doses, anyway. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This one I can't stand to this day. It didn't matter where you went, or what you did, it was impossible to get away from it.

That was a death. Not a murder.

For some reason, some reason, I’m not surprised. I wonder what that reason is......

FF8, as usual.

Most of the companies want people on the level of PewDiePie or AVGN. Anything less they typically don’t consider worth their time.

Physical copies are on their way out as it is anyway, so before long everyone is gonna be buying digital anyway. So those of us in the Stone Age, will have antiques that the next generation won’t know what the hell they’re looking at. Name me one kid today that knows how to use either a video cassette or audio cassette. How many of you here have never owned or possibly even seen an actual 8-track tape? I had a lot of them. Fuck. I am old.

The closest to an MMO that I’ve ever played is D&D. In that I was always either chaotic neutral or chaotic evil. I also refused to play anything other than an elf. Typically I was either a ranger or thief. Aside from the elven part, all the attributes are actual attributes of myself. When I was a kid and later in the years I was homeless, I was forced to learn how to steal and not get caught in order to have anything to eat. I ended up with the ability to steal your pants while you’re wearing them without getting caught. I’m not saying I’m proud of being a good thief, but when survival is on the line you do what you have to. I didn’t steal for more than 5-6 months when I was homeless before I started dumpster diving. Pizza Hut was a gold mine. But I’m not a ninja turtle, which means I burnt out on pizza quick as fuck.

As everyone here already knows, I absolutely love FF8. I play it all the time. But I came across this cartoon parody on YouTube, and could barely contain my laughter. It's great.

What in your opinion is the best murder you have ever seen in a horror or thriller movie? For me, it's when the Joker killed the guy with the hand buzzer completely frying him in the original Batman (1989). I love that one. For this no slasher flicks are allowed. Those are too easy. Get more creative people.

I had never heard anything from Willow Smith, so I played it. 10 seconds in, my ears were bleeding. I'm assuming she's Will Smith's daughter? If so, I know they say talent skips a generation, but dammit, this is going too far!

That is Darkstone(PS1) exactly. I've done that repeatedly with it.

It's sad to say, but I see that all the time. If you expect everything to be handed to you, then what is the actual point? I'll be the first to admit that I have players guides for a ton of my games. But I only have them to use if I get hopelessly stuck, and absolutely can not figure out what the hell I need to do to get out of that situation. Otherwise, all the hell they do is collect dust. In FF8, I do use the guide on a rare occasion, but only to double check things here and there. Like what items I need to refine to a certain one, or what a monsters elemental weakness is. As far as gameplay, I don't use it.

I’ve been noticing the same thing. Which has made it seem that we’re shit out of luck to find anything that’s actually a challenge. I honestly believe the bullshit PC and SJW movements have a lot to do with it.

You're exactly right on that. But around here where I live, when I mention the master quest people look at me like I'm high. In this area it's almost unheard of. I have it on N64 and Game Cube, but people still think I'm full of shit. So since it's completely unknown around here where I live, that's why I included it on my list.

I always liked the rainstorms in Zelda A Link To the Past. And when I could make it rain with the song of storms on Zelda OoT. I've always loved heavy rainstorms in real life. So I would love to see a game that would just out of nowhere blow in a rainstorm so severe you couldn't see in front of you. That has actually happened here several times. It has rained so hard that I couldn't see my backyard fence. And it's a big ass privacy fence. Tornados, earthquakes, and the occasional flash flood in a dead riverbed would be interesting. Maybe even a hurricane once in a while. What can I say, I love "bad" weather. I find it soothing. Here where I live what we have to worry about is severe thunderstorms/rainstorms, flash floods and tornados. I'm landlocked in the middle of the US, so I don't have to worry about hurricanes. And I'm not near any faults, so I don't have to worry about earthquakes. The flood of '93 wiped out more than half of the state. There are lakes to this day that are left over flood water. and that was 26 years ago. I remember the river being just a few feet below the bridge when it was supposed to be more than 100' below the bridge. It was fucking insane.

I had a dentist appointment at fucking 9am today. Loads of fun for me. I was supposed to take my hedgehog and conure to the vet for a checkup, but wasn't able to make it. But I got that rescheduled for next Tuesday.

I picked up Assassin’s Creed 2 the other day. I’ve hated the series for a long time, which always bugged me because it’s the type of game I gravitate towards. The problem I’ve had with it was trying to get through the bullshit at the start of the game. It was so much of a pain in the ass that I eventually just said “fuck this shit”. But the game was only $2.99 at GameStop, so I figured what the hell. At that price I wasn’t really losing anything if I still hated it. And if I ended up liking it, then I got a steal on a game.

They don't make their breakfast sandwiches past 9:00AM here.

Whenever the mood strikes me.
