Tetra Master was okay, but too random. At least with Triple Triad, the cards were "fixed" (in both value and where they were in the world), so there was an element of actual strategy. If you lost a card to player X, player X would keep that card in their deck, and vice versa. The card value remained the same as well.

You wouldn't have the computer just unilaterally beat you because they happened to have a card that just happened to be higher than yours exactly where it needed to be on the last turn that they didn't have the last game you just played them in.

Re-make I suppose would be a better word. Basically re-made with today's technology, yes. In accordance with today's gaming "norms" I'm sure they could make some great DLC for the title (or any other applicable re-make)

I remember feeling the same way about Animus in X. I just played through again and got him though, too awesome I think Animus is one of my fav summons from the series.

Heh, I can just imagine the backlash if they offered DLC for a FF7 remake. "Pay just $10 to unlock the quest to revive Aeris!"

Also, I'm pretty sure Anima is a her.

The first time I played FF6 I stopped playing for like a year at the Floating Continent cause I couldn't do it, then like another year at the final boss and I finally beat it like the day before I started my sophomore year of high school, I remember this clearly. Then I played it again like a year ago because I wanted to do the Shadow flashbacks which I never did and I got to like the end of the game without realizing that I missed the opportunity to do them and I never finished the game for a second time, which was a shame because my party was awesome and I worked really hard on that. It was on an emulator the second time and everything got deleted. Oh well.

There was a period where I ragequit 7. Made it all the way to the north cave, and "accidentially my whole save file". So pissed that I had to start almost from the beginning (other save was at the crossdressing extravaganza... I was trying to see what triggered the Don to choose Tifa, since Aeris is default and Cloud needs every article of clothing and a gangrape). I learned that day to multisave, even without experimenting with story choices.

You know, we should just make/bump a Final Fantasy discussion thread.

Are you kidding? I'm pretty sure that's one DLC the consumers would get behind!

....Well, they'd bitch publicly, because that's what gamers do. But they would so buy it in a heartbeat. And then bitch some more that it wasn't worth the money and demand refunds on a no-refund product and threaten to boycott he next game which they'd probably buy anyway....

Sounds about right.

On the subject of being upset about missing the one opportunity to get something in an RPG... I rather wish there was a "Gone Forever" guide. As in, a game walkthrough that told you nothing except that you need to talk to this one guy before leaving this room (for example).

Or open that one chest in the corner instead of immediately going for the exit after that grueling boss fight, because the +11 Sword of Awesome Epicness will be sealed in that cave behind you once you leave.

Agreed. I've missed so many of those things because I don't want to use a walkthrough for everything.

Daily Gaming News:
1) According to Crystal Dynamics, the first week sales for Tomb Raider managed to become the best ever in franchise history.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...stal-dynamics/

2) According to recent rumors, Battlefield 4's release date might end up being on October 29 at least for current gen consoles.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/rumor...on-xbox-blogs/

3) Ubisoft Toronto's Managing Director, Jade Raymond, states she believes "Triple A" games could benefit from having more user content as both a way to let players have more control over a game's content and to improve interactivity between players. She also believes this could end up playing a big role in helping to reduce the rising costs in developing games that has become a big issue for a lot of studios.

Battlefront 3 is fucked, that's all I cared from them anyway. They've done very little this gen otherwise.

Not really surprised considering for the past year or so most of the news involving LucasArts was bad.

Quote:
"After evaluating our position in the games market, we've decided to shift LucasArts from an internal development to a licensing model, minimizing the company's risk while achieving a broader portfolio of quality Star Wars games," reads the statement. "As a result of this change, we've had layoffs across the organization. We are incredibly appreciative and proud of the talented teams who have been developing our new titles."

Not really dead. There's a long shot chance that Disney could flip the license to some one else.

Daily Gaming News:
1) The Next Xbox controller is rumored to be completely identically to the current Xbox 360 controller with the only difference being a bit smaller in size.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...current-model/

2) Square Enix revealed their actual sales expectations for the so called "failures" was in the 11.5 million to 13.5 million in combined sales so far. They only managed to sell 8.5 million with Sleeping Dogs (250,000 off) being the closest while Tomb Raider (1.6-2.6 million off) performed the worst.
http://www.screwattack.com/news/squa...r-failed-games

3) Bethesda announces they have cancelled Rage 2's development, cancelled the Xbox 360 and PS3 version of Doom 4, and have moved Doom 4's development to next gen consoles.
http://www.destructoid.com/doom-4-pr...s-250681.phtml

4) According to the Senoir VP of EA's All Play division, the market has been happy with what EA has done with the Free-to-Play model while stating those who are complaining are only a small vocal minority.

Square-Enix needs to rethink how many core gamers are out there. Not as many as CoD leads one to believe.

EA is completely right about the F2P situation.

I doubt this was anything more than wishful thinking, as looking at their projections they were really trying to offset this "restructuring" deal.

Yeah there is a chance. Looks like Disney is just going to license the fuck out of anything so if anyone has the cash, they can make their own one.

Unhappy
The Project Zomboid devs are donating all their profits for the next few days to the campaign of a fellow indie dev who needs $35k to get a life-saving operation:

http://projectzomboid.com/blog/index...k-save-a-life/

Had insurance and parents won't help out because of he sexual orientation, it's just fucked up. On the plus side, Zomboid is a terrific game even in it's current alpha status, so you get a good game and get to do something good.

Here's the direct campaign if you'd prefer to donate that way:

1) XSEED announces Pandora's Tower for the Wii currently has a release date of April 16 and is priced at $40 for North America . This is the final RPG game from the Operation Rainfall campaign.
http://www.destructoid.com/pandora-s...6-250728.phtml

2) Telltale Games has cancelled work on an episodic King's Quest series and returned the IP back to Activision. The unofficial reason appears to be due to Telltale Games lacking the resources and manpower to continue work on the project without it impacting development on their other projects.
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/...-quest-series/

3) According to recent rumors, Blizzard's Project Titan game is teased to be using Earth as the main setting, designed with a focus towards eSports, involves time traveling, and the combat system is a mix of guns and magic.

What does a focus toward eSports mean in the context of an MMO? Like, team-based PvP or something?
