Although i'm on Disk 2 and seriously loving the game.
I'm missing the fact that there's nothing for me to do other than story.

I want to train choccobo and stuff...

How many disks does it come on, its the littlest thing ever but games that come on more than one disk infuriate me.

Ogen 03-16-2010 08:51 AM

Ah well thats good Assman, nicely timed.

#BROKEN Hasney 03-16-2010 08:51 AM

XBox 360: 3 discs

PS3: 1 disc

OssMan 03-16-2010 08:54 AM

How the fuck can a game come on more than one disc anymore. Does the 360 really suck that much

Ogen 03-16-2010 08:54 AM

Oh well thats a load of gay

How is it even a problem? Just waddle your arse over there and swap the disc big whoop.

8.5gb should be enough for any game bar interactive movies like FF13 or dialogue heavy games like ME2.

OssMan 03-16-2010 12:44 PM

No I mean how can a game be too big for a console in the "modern era." Thought that ended with PS2

lol what? Do you really not realize WHY games just keep getting bigger and bigger? This generation is the first that even needs to use such large discs.

We're talking high-definition graphics and audio now. The files for extremely high quality graphics and audio are HUGE.

Sorry, but your Wii doesn't have that so they'll never have a game that needs to be more than one disc.

PS3 doesn't need more than one due to blu-ray storage size.

The 360 will never be able to drop multi-discs if it is that large of a game, because their discs just aren't capable of it.

OssMan 03-16-2010 04:57 PM

What I'm trying to say is that the 360 is a piece of shit

Kalyx triaD 03-17-2010 01:37 AM

FF games on PS and PS2 had multiple discs. No one complained. ME2 came on multiple discs. People here fapped over the game.

Stop. Being. Gay.

Plenty of other much more valid reasons to crap on Red Ring 360.

#BROKEN Hasney 03-17-2010 01:45 AM

There are plenty of reasons to shit on all 3 consoles and every consumer electronics product ever.

Requiem 03-17-2010 01:51 AM

The 360 needs multiple discs to hold its higher quality media, while the Wii only uses single discs because the games on it don't have high enough quality of content to demand the use of multiple discs, because the system itself can't handle it.

I await an explanation on how that makes the 360 shit. I certainly won't hold my breath over it though.

And taking one's lazy ass and swapping discs (which installing renders moot anyway) shouldn't be one of them. One of the weaker sauce arguments I've heard over the game.

#BROKEN Hasney 03-17-2010 02:10 AM

It's hardly being used against the game, people are trying to use it as shots against the 360.

I'd personally take the multiple discs over a slow blu-ray drive and mandatory installs, but that's personal choice. Doesn't make the PS3 a terrible console in my eyes.

dronepool 03-17-2010 03:09 AM

Why doesn't 360 use HD DVD for it's games? I thought that they did. They have more storage than dual layer DVD's... Just because bluray 'won' doesn't mean they can't use HDDVD for games.

Kalyx triaD 03-17-2010 03:13 AM

That makes an iota of sense. Gonna look that up.

Probably has something to do with there being no HD-DVD drive in the 360.

Yeah, 360 had an external player for HD DVD, as opposed to PS3's built in blu-ray player.

dronepool 03-17-2010 03:42 AM

Damn, for some reason I figured they would use HD DVD as the default media format. Weird that they'd stick to DVD's.

#BROKEN Hasney 03-17-2010 03:44 AM

It had something to do with being built to hit a price point and coming out all the way back in 2006.

What the fuck are you talking about, why do you keep bring up Wii, I have not mentioned it at all. "imo" though some Wii games have better graphics than the HD games on PS3 and 360, including Final Fantasy 13. Super Mario Galaxy is probably the best looking game I have ever seen. Like somebody said, the 360 was rushed and built to hit a price range, which ended up making it a lot weaker than it could have been.

Fignuts 03-17-2010 05:29 PM

lol mario galaxy

get the fuck out of here

Requiem 03-17-2010 06:05 PM

lol he can get the fuck out of here with that whole post

Requiem 03-17-2010 06:09 PM

Also, guarantee there is not a single Wii game that looks better on my 50" plasma, than did Uncharted 2. Was one of the most visually appeasing games I've ever seen.

Fignuts 03-17-2010 06:35 PM

Agreed. Uncharted 2 is easily the best looking console game ever.

Blitz 03-17-2010 07:17 PM

Can't believe how much I used to love Final Fantasy compared to how much I don't care about this one :(

Anybody Thrilla 03-18-2010 12:37 PM

OK...should I get this game or not? Just tell me now.

I have a PS3, by the way.

Khuntry 03-19-2010 02:56 PM

A very "scathing" review of FF13, which I know a lot of you here will jive with..

Kalyx triaD 03-19-2010 04:19 PM

While FF13 may turn people off with it's near 180 design choices, me and my bro are checking out Resonance of Fate. A badass, classical JRPG with gunplay instead of swords. To quell early doubts, the game opens with town/world exploration. The battle system is a snazzy take on turn-based combat.

And in this world everybody solves their problems with guns.

Yes. I am playing it now and regardless of it's contrast from other games, on it's own it is really well done.

Khuntry 03-19-2010 05:07 PM

I keep hearing that ROF is really hard and unforgiving.

Fignuts 03-19-2010 05:14 PM

Most classic jrpgs are.

I died in my first battle. I thought I had the battle system down with the time I put into the very generous training offered 5 minutes into the game, but I thought wrong.

Fignuts 03-19-2010 05:45 PM

I beat Final Fantasy III. I can take anything this game throws at me.

AssFag is incapable of that.

Anyways, rented this on PS3. I love the 1 disc blu ray shit, but still love my 360, too.

I meant the learning curve for ROF is pretty high..
