Hahahaha XD Awesomesauce =D

what did you name Barret? :D

Mr. T

*RUNS!!!!!* XD

His name is just Barrett but I called Tifa "Tits".

HA, appropriate XD

name Aeris, I die

Been there, done that. XD lol

I have to play that game again just so I can name her "Sugar Tits"...

Wow. ^^;

there's a compatibility extra separately unless you bought the $600 one which already has it built in

It's embarrassing that their super-ultra-powerful system doesn't include the functionality to emulate PS1 games entirely in software. The friggin' Dreamcast managed it.

sad thing is it DOES but they removed it from the systems because it was costing them too much as a bundle

Nnnno, they used to do it with a hardware widget that was removed for later, cheaper systems. Software doesn't cost them anything to add.

The American and Japanese version of the early first gen PS3 had hardware support of PS1 and 2 games, but the European model had only software support for both, and later on they removed all of those.

sad thing is it DOES but they removed it from the systems because it was costing them too much as a bundle, thats why your CHEAPER one doesn't have teh backwards compatibility.

All versions of PS3 should play PS1 games, not all play PS2. You should take your problem to Sony because that's not right.

Also, it's already out on PSN for both PSP and PS3 (the same copy is interchangeable between the two)

All PS3s can play PS1 games, it's the PS2 backwards compatibility they removed.

Yes, you have to make a virtual PS1 memory card and assign it to slot 1. (Memory Card Utility under the games section of the XMB).

No, not all of them can play PS1 games, the newest generations have had that compatibility removed aswell.

Yeah that's why I still have my ps1. x3

I named all my characters in this stupid names this time around. I won't go into too much detail, but Cloud was Douch and Barret was lol Beard

i just today put final fantasy 7 onto my psp and was just playing it ^=^

Aeris in the game I just started is called "Fodder" and I named Cloud "Pussy", Barret "Fuckhead", Tifa "Titsmagoo", and Red XIII is "Furbait".

Lol terrible, I remember this scene though XD

You've got a smudge on your face!

Hahahaha, I'm glad I'm not the only one who does shit like this. I'm fond of things like "Your mother," "That guy," "Some dick," etc.

I walked in on my friend playing this scene last week. Poor fool called him "Cloud".

In my opinion, nothing beats this.

I Lol'd

It's super effective?

I... I don't get it

hahaha xD

I remember in Computer Games Magazine (formerly Computer Games Strategy Plus, now defunct), there was a partial walkthrough for disc 1 of FF7, and someone noted that it's fucking hilarious when you name Cloud "Dildo".

Damn...now I need to play that game again... still haven't finished.... Mostly because I've watched everyone ELSE finish it! >_<

THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU!!?

I FORBID YOU TO PLAY ANYTHING ELSE UNTIL YOU HAVE COMPLETED THIS GAME AND I MEAN IT DX

also, scan and send me that badge or I will cause you harm

Oh and my scanner broke, I gotta go over to Rocko's place to get it scanned and cropped... gonna be my new icon X3

OK OK GOD DAMN! *rummages through his PS games and grumbles* damn ffvii game... better have some damn sexy Beret, Cid and RedXIII dreams after this....

I've got this on mah compy too.
I still think it's overrated.
FF6 is the best in my opinion.

Ahh... fond memories of Buttheado, WayTooFat and Slave.

Biggs and Wedge?

I remember thiiiis. XD that was epic.
"You don't take good enough care of yer peen!"
"Would you like me to wash yer peen for you?"

Why's everyone obsessed with FF7, when clearly FFX was the best part?

Oh. Good. God. No. Just. No.

^second :|

It's a 25-25-25-25, others think the only real FF was 7, and some think it was 8, some think it's 9 and the rest think it's 10

It depends on the generation. Original fans love 1-3, the next go for 3/4-6, the next start at 7 and go through 9, love resting with any one of the three, then the next gen started with 10. It's like the Trekkie wars, Kirk fans dis Picard and Janeway and vice versa. Unfortunately the gen who got 10 missed out on ALL the glory years and only caught on when FF forgot the meaning of classic RPG. >< A world of hack and slack cookie cutter. Regardless of their reasons. ><'

Well, Final Fantasy has nonetheless been an enjoyable series for me, and I am happy to own copies from 6 to 12, Crisis Core included.. Haven't had luck finding the first five -.- But, I will be getting 13 and likely 14 for trying out, too XP

I know it's not the *same*, but why not get the originals redone on.. PS2, I think. Oo' 1-3. They were redone for the PSP (1, 2) and the DS (3). More difficult if you're not willing to settle for emulators. ><'

I have yet to see a single copy of the originals on the PS2, BUT, I am waiting for the 20th Anniversary pack of FFI and II to be released here on the PSP and get it then.. For biased reasons I do not own a single Nintendo console, and thusly do not own DS to get the 3-5 they made on it.

Aww.. but Nintendo is love. But could still be gotten round with emulators. ;p Cause you technically wouldn't own anything Nintendo. Just data files. XD

'Cept Nintendo treats ROM files as copyrighted material, and officially I do not own a single one anyways. (and Nintendo is not love XP They made 3 versions of the DS, and the Wii in the end is looking like a flop in the serious gaming industry, no offence)

I had forgotten the DS. I agree there. I don't think the Wii was ever meant to be 'serious' if I'm thinking the way you're thinking. Nintendo has evolved into the 'child' of the systems. PS is the teen and Microsoft is the adult, albeit the very unreliable, bi-polar (and possibly emo) adult. I do think Nintendo has been one of the generally more reliable and backward compatible systems, not counting the major data changes they've gone through, and they use the Wii to allow the older games to still be bought and played. Granted PS and Micro don't *have* the older older games to put forth, but when your system can't play the disc that came out two months ago (talking in retrospect to when the newer ones were new) there's a problem. Only reason I don't have the newer systems is cause the PS is ridiculously expensive for a single system (I know, the whole blue ray thing), and I'd need to get two x-boxes to avoid downtime between red rings.

I would have to agree on your definations of what 'age' the consoles would be, you could say Nintendo died and a new one was born, Microsoft is growing old, and Playstation and Sony are coming to their prime soon enough. Or as Yachtzee said it, Wii is a kiddie machine, PS3 an all family entertainment system, and Xbox360 is a frat-boy ritalin-poppin' FPS-gamers console.

You'll have to remember that PS2 is actually still selling more than the PS3, but mostly they're being bought side by side to gain that backwards compatibility they've almost lost (remember the PS Network store, they sell a variety of oldie PSX goldies, such as FFVII <3). The XBOX360 from what I know does have limited BC, no idea how limited, but some support..

And yes, I do agree that the PS3 is a bit high on price even now. But remember, it used to cost 600 euros... 350 euros is very affordable compared to that. And trust me, the quality between blu-ray and DVD is VERY VISIBLE! (though you can get the same result by burning a HD quality video onto a DVD in full DVD-size, it looks quite good that way too, and the PS3 plays them <3).

And I watched the E3 clips of the three, I gotta say, PS3 is looking like the winner this year, with what, 300 new titles coming out... Oh well.

"Wii is a kiddie machine, PS3 an all family entertainment system, and Xbox360 is a frat-boy ritalin-poppin' FPS-gamers console" <-- Dude. Awesome.

I love my PS2 to death. It and my Gamecube are the only systems I've never had problems with. My mother decided my Xbox needed to be stored in the garage, and a year later we have yet to find it. What with America and all, I don't go by Euros, ;p I don't remember the starting price, but it's still $500 to $600. ><' I'll have to check out the PS network store, wasn't aware of it, not that I've had tons of money for games. Blu-ray doesn't do much for me since HD doesn't do anything for me either XD I'm still on a heavy round old screen with more parts than a 3 and up toy.

x) Oh you Americans have it cheap... One euro is something like 1.4 dollars I think at the moment, so you can calculate it from there... And yeah, the PSN store has PSX games sold for 4.95 euros for the most part (FFVII was 9.99) There's also a good bit of other stuff in there, like WipEout HD (<3), and well, it never hurts to be prepared for a time when you do get a Full HD TV :P

This is true.

Wait, hold on.

There are people who liked FF8?

I enjoyed VIII immensely. I actually don't understand why people didn't enjoy it. I mean, the Junction system was different, but I thought it added a nice visual touch and a tad more strategy.

Also, you forgot 6. I'm not obsessive enough to play the "only real FF" card, but 6 was my favorite.

Yes, there are people who liked 8, and yes, I kind of disregarded 6 due to it not having been released on the Playstation until much later. I am a member of that generation where you either had a NES or not, and I didn't. I might've become a member of the Sega fandom, but PS won, and I've stuck with it since. So I have not had the chance to play Final Fantasies from 1-6 on their original titles on the S/NES, 6 only on the PSX. There's a reason many like FF9 most, since it looks most like the older FFs, like 6, kind of a return to the roots.

Hahaha. I'm playing through this game right now! Just got to disc 3!

omg due, it will never be better than it was w Epona.

My brother and I used to get a kick out of naming the old NES characters "Fuck", "Shit", "Bitch" etc, because longer things wouldn't fit.

But it was funny when one of them awoke to find the others missing.

"FUCK! Where's Shit? Bitch! Ass! Where are you!" or something along those lines.

Also, when they get killed in battle. "Shit fell"

I once named everyone Sephiroth...
It was the most confusing game ever!

Ahahaha genius XD

This is going right next to my, "Please No ...........Grandpa......." picture.

I named everyone in my FFIX game um... Binxby, Slinksy, Thinksy, and something else I forget now. even though that's only funny to me XD in FFXIII i named Rinoa 'Barf' which made me laugh every time.

xD

I don't really see what constructive comment i can put here, really

Tip: Play Earthbound, name Cocks as your favorite food.

I remember doing something similar to this. When I played FF7, I named Yuffie "Yo Mamma"

and when she decides to join you and you walk away, she chases after you yelling "I'm Yo Momma!"

This just about edges everyone elses comments out. For whatever reason I cant seem to remember I once called her Bitch Be Trippin Balls. It provided come classic moments.

Haha, back in the day where they had FF for the PC, I think they only did it with 7 and 8 though...

When I was like eight I loved to name everybody "Poop!" with exclamation mark and all. Endlessly entertaining!

Ever try naming everyone the exact same name for extra confusing fun?

Ah, I remember playing FF7 on my PC. I wonder if they released any patches for it? After the third crash trying to get through Cloud's angsty interactive dream sequence with no bloody save points I gave my disks to a friend and took up another game. A shame, really, it was a good game, although I really came to dislike Cloud.

you should try naming them 'I farted' : D

Arf, its been years since I played but I remember naming Vincent 'GothTwat' and Barret 'Whitey'.

Simple pleasures.

XD HAHAHAHHAHA

..oh jeez that's great.
