Yeah, well, I haven't had a boss that had stumped me as bad as he did in a long time. And, in my ecstatic glee to finally get past that, I pushed through to meeting Khroma. But, I feel a grind coming on...

haha good luck...if alexei owned you hard wait til you fight the next few bosses...lets see who you deal with now...oh its -spoiler censored-, yeah so much fun right?

oh yeah star ocean 1 is good star ocean 2 is awesome, and star ocean 3 is fail...good time burner...i think i wasted 300+ hours all together on star ocean 3.

And the only one I've played was Star Ocean 3. Still, I did enjoy it before I got utterly stuck. I can't remember what part it was, and I only have a few memories of the game.

Like these ruins with red numbers painted on the walls and you had to input them in the correct order to open a door. I think.

um first dungeon of the game...and its 269...

Good god, I just finished the main story of Fallout 3.

See? I knew I remembered something. Although, I thought there was a 4 in there somewhere.

But, that was a long time ago. Maybe 3 years?

Good, contribute consistently to a discussion, and you're officially in.

It's settled. Me, Grey (kinda) and Deathnote are all getting SO 4.

Yeah, she didn't turn out to be so bad after all. The fight wasn't going the right way the first time, so I just quit. The second time, I won, but used up all my Life bottles. I'm a little pissed that Yuri and Judith missed out on all the experience, though. She hit and killed both of them with her Ravaging Gale (or whatever it's called), and like, three seconds after they both died Rita cast Ground Dasher, ending the fight. But whatever, it's nothing a half-hour of grinding or a Giganto can't fix.

I hope so. But since when does Square fuck up anything?

I have the mystic artes, but my OL gauge only goes up to 2. And I need it to go up to 3. And as for the equipment, no, I don't synthesize, but I have everyone with the best possible armor and weapons and shit. But, I will explore and see what I can do when I play it next.

oh and while im at it, tales of the abyss. cant go wrong ever.

Stop rubbing it in. Once I get a PS3, I'll get to it.

It's also on PS2; unless you don't have that, either - in which case, by all means, wait until you have the PS3.

Oh, yeah, btw, I'm back, though I doubt anyone cares :p

That is a very good question...
Also, I some videos of Star Ocean... I only have played the SNES version which was pretty good, but the newer ones look bad-ass. I would definitely say that Star Ocean looks a lot more intense with fighting than "Tales of" series ever did...

WOAH WOAH WOAH THERE COWBOY. I think you just bitch slapped Namco. And, as a hopeless Namco fanboy, that just doesn't sit well with me. Regardless of the fact that I haven't seen any vids of SO4.

But Symphonia is the greatest game ever, just so we establish a baseline.

You're that guy who said the Tales of the Abyss anime failed didn't you?
Dammit to hell i-un-kool, what the hell????

You really think Star Ocean has more action than the Tales series.

Compare!
Star Ocean
Tales of Phantasia

I'll admit, the action is more fluid in Star Ocean, but we're not done.

Star Ocean 2
Tales of Symphonia

Seriously ikool? Symphonia wins this.

Star Ocean 3
Tales of the Abyss

Neblim is a bit too hardcore of a fight. But Abyss wins this too.

Star Ocean 4
Tales of Vesperia

This one is more chalked up to personal opinion than the rest, but Vesperia wins here.

And this isn't even taking into account the other Tales games.

Yo Yagami.

yah tales was faster and scarier like a roller coaster at night.

Star Ocean 2

Seriously ikool? Symphonia wins this.

dont even bother comparing those 2 to each other...it was like 2 other tales games to compare star ocean 2 to...thats like comparing street fighter 2 king of fighters....gay!

Star Ocean 3
Tales of the Abyss

Neblim is a bit too hardcore of a fight. But Abyss wins this too.

neblim or freya?....they both are too hardcore, i'd rather compare syphonia to star ocean 3 really seeing how they came out in a closer time span...what ever. ugh 1 hour of freya to neblim at least with neblim you knew how much was left of her.

Star Ocean 4
Tales of Vesperia

This one is more chalked up to personal opinion than the rest, but Vesperia wins here.

man star ocean 4 is gonna rock vesperia unless SO4 has some stupid flaws that holds it back...and im a vesperia lover, the story to SO4 is gonna suck...all star oceans i mean ALL have shitty stories. but on vesperia you made me do it again knux you fucker.

And this isn't even taking into account the other Tales games.

I was just talking about the newest one.
If I had the choice, I would buy Star Ocean over ToS2...

I've never played a Star Ocean game... except the first one, but man does it look good...
Also, I think I didn't like ToS2 as much as I did ToS because of the monster battling... The attacks seemed less intense, the members of the last game didn't level. The first player was stuck playing as either Emil or Marta... Don't get me wrong here, it was a great game, the story was awesome, graphics well done, good old linear-flex battle system, but there was just so much that I didn't like.

After the video I saw on IGN, the fights in Star Ocean had a much larger battle range, the attacks were amazingly overcompensating (really intense, thats why I like Disgaea specials), and the graphics were gorgeous. I know nothing of the story or characters, but from what I've seen, WOW.

Laid off. Economy sucked, therefore job = lost. Also because they had a 'last in, first out' policy, though they usually got rid of the crap employees before they used that.
And yes, I was a good employee. I know because we were running on a skeleton crew as it was with me there. Problem was, I was making more than the other employees because I was doing the job of 2 people.

Star Ocean 4's battle system looked like Star Ocean 3 on steroids, which doesn't really impress me.
Intrigued, yes.
But not impressed or in any awe expressing excitement.

Really? It looks amazing to me.
Also guys... NEW VIDEOS FOR MARIO&LUIGI 3 RPG!!!
It looks amazing as it always has, but this time, you get to play as bowser too! There have also been videos of what looks like a GIANT BOWSER VS HIS CASTLE fight, which looked breathtakingly amazing to me... Either that or I am waaaaay to big of a Mario fanboy....

btw, the videos are at ign.com if you wanted to see them.

hey yagami, sorry for the late hi....so thats what happened, they fired you because your too good....stupid capitalist economy.

star ocean 4 looks like 3 except badass and revamped...you dont have to pause the game to switch characters, i hope the A.I is better in this one, star ocean 3 A.I's is one of the things that made the game bad...that and adray.

You didn't have to pause it in 3, but in a pinch when every second counts, its safer to pause it first, plus what wrong with having to pause it? Don't nit-pick Grey, thats my job.

i hope the A.I is better in this one, star ocean 3 A.I's is one of the things that made the game bad...that and adray.

Agreed.

Lol, I was so close to acing my driving test. Then I 'palmed' the steering wheel; it's where you only use your palm to turn it. Other than that, I had that shit perfect. I think the bi- woman who was testing me at the time felt like she had to find SOMETHING wrong, or she'd explode from the awesomeness of my driving skills :p

Yeah, have as much fun as you can in high school. Once you're out, the real world hits you like a Super Mutant Behemoth pumped on Psycho and Med-X, and all you've got is a BB gun and your fists.

Nice. The only reason I really want to drive to be able to get to a job easy. Other than that, I could really care less about driving.

Yeah, that's what everyone tells me. And let's just say, my life could be better. It's sort of daunting to think of the fact that it's all downhill from here.

But only until 2012, so there's that.

Driving will not help you get a job. I am living proof of that... Straight A's and still no job...
Driving is just to take you to work. You need a pretty kick ass resume and cover letter for a job.

That's what I said. I said "I want to drive just to get to a job.", not to get a job. There's a subtle difference. And really, how are the Mexicans who can't speak any English getting jobs, but you can't?

Either you're not working hard enough, or something's seriously fucked up.

Mexicans do a faster job with a less center of knowledge of checks and balances.
So people abuse their ignorance of that by paying them less.
By paying them less they can produce productivity by hiring more of them and paying them the same amount, for all intents and purposes getting more for their money.
What they pay these poor 10 immigrants accumulates to what they paid you.
<.<
Can we get back to rpgs now?

Quick, someone find an RPG where you hire people to work for you, and the Mexicans are the cheapest so we can continue off-topic, but on-topic!

On-Topic: Finally have all of the 'Unique' weapons -well, minus the DLC content, as my step-dad has yet to get us internet access on it - in Fallout 3. I got lucky with the Firelancer random event, 'cause I went around the hill Vault 101 is on and got to the barn, heard a *BOOM*, and the geiger counter started ticking alot. Next thing I know, I'm finding blue rods and a gun. Made D.C. hella easy at only level 3-4 :D
The bitch was getting both the Ant's Sting AND the Protectron's Gaze. Pain in the ass getting their costumes off of them. Though, it might have gone easier if I hadn't been so persistant about getting their clothes, too :p
Funnest gun to me is Lincoln's Repeater. There's just something satisfying about the little *ting* it makes after every shot :)

That's in the Museum of History, right? I got there, but had to turn back when I came to a locked cell door and had no lockpicks. There were two cell doors, actually, both leading into what I thought was the same room. I tried to force one of the doors with a 40% chance of opening it. It didn't work, so I turned back.

Yagami, get Star Ocean 4.
