The Completion of Ivalice – A First Impression

Now that i have gained 3 exp from fighting the evil Rats who ate my Phone Wire, i am now able to give my impression on Final Fantasy Tactics A2. The A2 i guess stands for Advance 2 since its the sequel to Tactics Advance on the GBA , but this one is on the Nintendo DS.

First off things i dont like, i dont like how the judge system only effects you and not your opponent, it makes me sad that i can’t use the law system to my own advantage to beat the enemy. Although now if you follow the rules the Judge gives you a Buff whether it be +Power or +speed and other fun stuff.

Second i dont like how you dont start with Full Mana at the begining of battle, i usually have to wait 3 turns before i get to use a summoning move or a full area move.  So this means my Favorite Red Mage Double Cast and Summoner Moves have been Nerfed :( .

But in the end its the captivating Story that keeps me going, that this boy needs to finish writing in the book and for the book and the world of Ivalice to end. Although i have yet to beat this game… i am half way through i enjoy it.

Another Live Action Casualty

We’ve seen plans for anime movies in the past… Speed Racer… Dragonball… Astro Boy… Gatchaman… Ghost in the Shell… and now…

Cowboy Bebop.

I for one am not looking forward to the potential train wreck, Hollywood is not exactly building up a lot of faith with fans of the original work and isn’t necessarily bringing in new blood at this rate.

I have two problems up front already. First, the fact that Fox is putting this out(remember, they’re killing Dragonball) and that there is an ‘oath of fidelity’ to the original material. The second part is a load of BS and if you can’t see that then I know a Nigerian prince who would like your bank information.

Check out the fairly condescending article which seems to lump the anime demographic as ‘fanboys’.

Thanks to the numorious people who sent me this article through email, IMs and private tells.
