Square Enix has enlisted beverage maker Suntory to develop a Final Fantasy XII themed drink to coincide with the Japanese release of the game next spring. The product is said to incorporate elements of herbal tea and Square Enix is calling it "potion" for now. Planned quantities of this special edition drink have not been released, but they will most assuredly be in short supply. There are currently no announcements about a U.S. release so get ready to pull the importing trigger.

 

252. You start E-mailing Square Enix 50 times everyday to release FF potions cause the guy down the street with the silver hair keep's beating you up.

yeah you guys pretty much said everything that came to my mind for FF games...

 

This thread definitely pulled an all nighter. I got off this the same way I got off when I finally successfully bread a GOlden Chocobo to get the Knights of the ROund summon Materia (that shyt was f*** magical) or the way I got off when Cloud made an oh so sexy lady and was taken back to that guy's room (oh yea!) or the way I got off when I saw the intro to both FF7 and FF8. or... the way I got off when I learned that f*** Jeckt shot which made it possible to actually WIN my first Blitz game (which I got addicted to, You can't like that silly underwater game without having the Jeckt shot. If you do then YOU're F*** amazing)

 

 

BUt yeah, this thread f*** owns any FF game forum I've ever read.

 

Cheers to FF fans everywhere!

[Acalis]

If you do then YOU're F*** amazing)

I can sympathize. It was a bitch and a half to breed those Gold Chocobos in FF7! I remember I would get frustrated and hit the reset button over and over again, but it was worth it in the end. I practically salivated when I got the Knights of the Round materia and used it for the first time. I also remember what a bitch it was to beat Emerald and Ruby Weapons. Emerald was an especially bad bitch to beat cuz it took me forever to find the guidebook to get the Underwater materia that cancels out the 20:00 minute time limit to beat him.

In FF10, the Jecht shot was also a bitch to get too. I had to consult a FAQ to figure out that you had to make the words disappear with the buttons, not move the ball as I thought. I also sucked at Blitz Ball before I got it, and now I've won every game ever since.

 

Oh here's some more:

 

261. You have sexual fantasies involving various FF characters like Tifa, Aeris, and Lulu (and for the ladies, Tidus, Edgar, and some others)

 

262. You try to think of and design plots and scenarios for Part 2s of existing FF games.

 

263. You compare any other non-FF RPG game you play to FF.

 

264. You spend more hours playing Blitzball in FF10 than it takes you to play and beat the rest of the game!

 

265. You've actually balled your eyes out during death scenes like Tellah from FF4 or Aeris from FF7.

[Senshik]

247. You make up scenarios in your head about what happened to Cloud and Tifa after the credits have rolled

 

Yeah... As a chick you make up a really romantic scenario. Also for FF8 ending (we all want to think they all made sweet sweet love, hahaha....)

 

266. When you seriously go out of your way to get ALL if not MOST of the stones and ultimate weapons for each of your FFX characters.

 

267. Especially LULU's... omfg. Dodging lightning 200 times!

 

268. When you go into work earlier than usual so you can print out FFX strategyguide, along with "borrowing" a binder to keep the couple hundred some pages organized and then printing out a really cool picture to put in the front of the binder

 

269. Cry when you realize you don't have access to color printer, so now you have to settle with the black and white FFX front cover

 

 

270. Despite having printed out your own strategyguide, you find out G4 TV's CHEAT has a special on FFX secrets, you will miss going to class so you can try out some of the hints.

 

271. When you reffer any FFs as a great read.

Especially LULU's... omfg. Dodging lightning 200 times!

 

I somehow pulled that one off.

 

I also remember what a bitch it was to beat Emerald and Ruby Weapons. Emerald was an especially bad bitch to beat cuz it took me forever to find the guidebook to get the Underwater materia that cancels out the 20:00 minute time limit to beat him.

 

I beat Emerald by dumb luck. I forgot to take cait sith out of my party when the fight started. I was going to reset but I said what the hell and went for it. I had his limit break at full and used it. I somehow got Instant victory on my first shot. It was the one and only time I ever got the Instant victory limit break. Ruby on the other hand took a while to beat but damn what a great feeling.

 

272. When you believe that you can jump into the t.v. or computer screen while playing the game to be a part of the game

 

273. When you actually try to do this

 

274. When you actually try to do this more than once and end up getting a huge bruse on your head

 

275. When you already own a copy of FFIV for the PS1 but you still went out and got a copy for the Gameboy cause it's FF. (Yeah, i'm guilty of this one)

 

276. When you know all the lyrics to the opera house scene

[Newtype]

277. When you neglect normal bodily functions 'til you finish "the next part"

 

278. When you start using FF characters gestures instead of your own (sephiroth:haha head down, haha hand in air and hand on chest, nod back and forth once lol)

 

279. When you start to get frustrated cause you cant think of anymore things to type on this thing

 

280. When you begin to cry at the thought of FF games being banned, or all being desroyed

 

281. To think that it's even possible to think of 1001 ways to know if you play too much Final Fantasy.

 

282. when you start thinking you see moogles in your back yard hunting your garden gnombs.

[Senshik]

283. When you're best freind calls you on the phone wanting to talk about girl stuff, but you're too busy concentrating on your game, only to have her say: "Damn it kerstin! Are you listening to me!? WHat were the last two words I said!?" ... Um... Joe something. Something about JOE! "ARE YOU PLAYING YOUR LITTLE VIDEO GAME AGAIN!?" Um, NO I'm listening to you! I SWEAR! .............. Okay fine, yes I am. Can I call you back? (man that was clever, I'm such bad freind to her... >_

[Newtype]

27. You have the FFIX Pepsi commencials (or was that coke?) downloaded on your hardrive

 

It was coke btw.

 

284. Selling out your boyfriend(sex). But then decide to see him anyway to get laid. Getting laid and telling him your going home to continue to play. Thanks for the sex and the sandwich!

 

I need to find a girlfriend just like you. The last one hated video games. I'm at the store trying to buy one and she's like no I can't buy it. I'm like what. She's going on an on. Finally I had it with her and I just said. "Bitch it's my money. I worked hard for it and I'm going to buy what I want." She never did tell me why she hated them.

Edited May 21, 2006 by newtype

285. when you let your hair go insanely long, dye it black, buy a one handed shotgun thingy, buya red cloak and turn it to rags, buy a new golden hand, buy a red hairband, rename yourself vincent, and run around the street pretending to be a demon

 

286. When you watch AC in the morning and before you go to bed and if you dont you cant sleep

 

287. You call your girlfriend by the name of Aeris and she breaks up with you because she thinks your cheating on her.

 

288. When you see people in black trench coats and chase them around with your replica of Buster Sword claiming them to be sephiroth. I keep thinking of Jax for some reason.

 

289. When you and some friends can re-inact the entire FF7 game wth no script.

 

290. When you cry whenever you Aeris' theme cos you think of her dying and it still makes you sad
