Nice,
Nice,
Honestly my collection is kinda split and im trying to figure out if I want to go fill out 1.0s or go in on Kai more.
I'd gladly switch to Bring Arts but it seems like a while before it actually has enough depth to fully commit to.
Pretty crazy when they were like $20-30 when they came out,I think the older arts have value, I checked the price of Auron and it was being sold for $300 on EBay.
If we're going to change the banner why don't we just use Valdei's?I'll try to make one then I'll get your approval. Will try to cram all the logos of FF in the OP banner
Quite a few outside of Play Arts but for that specifically I have:
The Rinoa and original Squall are still my favorite Play Arts.If we're going to change the banner why don't we just use Valdei's?

And since unlike the above I don't have a photo I also have Tidus:
I also have the Squall and Rinoa mini's from Trading Arts. My favourites so far are Kotobukiya VIII figures.
I was wondering whether the PS1 version available on the PS3 and Vita is a good way to play the game?
Some of my Pre-Kai
(whole thing wouldn't be an issue if there was a Kai Rinoa)
How do the original VII's scale with VIII if you don't mind me asking?
I almost pulled the trigger on that Cloud and motorcycle so many times,I have two. And yes, they are both of Cloud lol. I also have two Play Arts Kai of him as well. My ex used to joke that all my Clouds could join together to form a giant Voltron Cloud lol.
I have figures from other FFs as well, but they are all Play Arts Kai, and I don't like them quite as much as the original Play Arts. I'm bummed I missed out on so many from that era. I love love love your Tidus Wazzy!!
PAL or NTSC? If it's the latter version, then yes it's decent enough (especially on a Vita). Some people will tell you it's a bad port due to the load times - don't listen to them. You'll spend less time waiting for the game to load than when playing FFIX and the load times are completely normal for a PS1 title (the PS1 port of FFIV on the other hand... yikes). Of course, the SNES and GBA versions don't have any load times so I think it might simply be hard for people who are used to playing those ports to adjust.
I personally prefer the GBA port myself. New, improved translation and some decent bonus content. The increased brightness doesn't bother me and I'm not a big fan of the SNES soundchip to begin with so the downgraded audio isn't something that bothers me either.

best pic I could find (not mine).
Thanks! I think the version being sold on the PSN Store is the PAL version, unfortunately. What's the issue with that one?
Same as 99% of every other PAL game from the 80's and 90's - 17% slower due to poor 50 Hz conversion.
Ah, thought there would be some major issue I didn't know about. But, yeah, I think that's enough to make me skip the game's PS1 port. I've been meaning to buy a GBA for a while now so I think I'll get one of those and the game to go with it. There are some reproduction carts on eBay for a "Restored" version with the darker graphics, fixed fonts and sound so I'll look into that.
Hmm, don't pay too much for a repro though. It's too bad the official release is really expensive (and there are lots of fakes too). The Steam port has the new translation and bonus content from the GBA version, but with the SNES music. Many fans dislike the new sprites, but I think they look decent enough if you install some mods to remove the blurriness. However, what's really killing that version for me is that it's just a lazy port of the mobile release, with a touch screen interface.
You will probably be able to find a SNES Mini for cheaper than a GBA + FFVI Advance.
To be honest I might just take a gamble on the PS1 version. The PAL slowdown shouldn't be that much of an issue, right?
Ultimania Vol.1 is due to arrive tomorrow! Anyone got their copy early?

I really want to order both of these. I missed out on the kickstarter because I was busy at the time. How are both books?
Thanks! I really love the detail on the Tidus statue and it's one of my favorite figures. I wish I had some others from the line. The Squall one is okay but something is off about the facial design while his Kotobukiya figure is more accurate so I wish he had something like the Tidus Play Arts.I have two. And yes, they are both of Cloud lol. I also have two Play Arts Kai of him as well. My ex used to joke that all my Clouds could join together to form a giant Voltron Cloud lol.

My Ultimania vol 1 just arrived.
But before I open the box, I wanted to check if there were any opinions first. What I've understood over the years is that Ultimania gets into the concepts and details of each FF game, which is what I'm hoping for. If it's more of a glorified artbook that's no different from The Sky (which I already own), then I may have to rethink things.
Thanks. Sadly they don't look that dynamic when they are in their display case.

I didn't remember the Wiegraf fight being quite this terrible. Even with auto potion healing me to full every time, counter is a guaranteed death sentence. He even counters jump.
I thought I would play fft with a summoner and a chemist, rather than a white mage, and I'm beginning to think it's less than possible. I don't remember the game being this hard.
Does it? SE always seems to leave it out in most of their mobile presentations, choosing BE and Mobius instead. I hope it's doing well, I like it a lot.Brave Exvius and Record Keeper also make astonishing amounts of money.
I look at Square's MMOs and Mobile games the same way, i don't care about them, they aren't for me, but i'm happy other people like them and they give Square Enix money to make the games that i do care about like FFXV, Nier Automata, Dragon Quest XI, and KH3.
Record Keeper is made by DeNA, not SE, i think that's why it's left out.Does it? SE always seems to leave it out in most of their mobile presentations, choosing BE and Mobius instead. I hope it's doing well, I like it a lot.
