backupdump002Mmmmm, delicious apples.
Nothing really interesting has been going on over here... OH WAIT, I don't think I ever mentioned this, but John broke up with Julia several weeks ago because Julia was cheating on him. Again. The whole thing makes me sad :< I mean, I definitely do not approve of her cheating on my brother, but I'm still gonna kinda miss Julia. She was a part of our lives for about seven years, y'know? I remember her and John taking me to see the first Pokemon movie when I was a kid and going to some anime convention with her and her friend and spending all these holidays with together and stuff. It's gonna be weird not having her around.
Then again, she told John something about how she was gonna run around with her new boyfriend for a while and then get back together with John in about a year. Pfffft. Whatever, man.
Anyway, between![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
zarla doing a screenshot adventure on Earthbound and bluedragon3 starting on a Radical Rex one, I've been wanting to whip up another adventure of my own! :O This time, though, I'm going to try and pick a game I've actually played before and know a little about, so I don't make myself look like AS big of a moron like I did doing Chain of Memories. 'Cause with that game I had never played it before, and Kingdom Hearts games tend to be kind of kooky and vague anyway so y'know. Y'KNOOOOWWWWWWW
ANYWAY HERE IS A LIST I COOKED UP so if you could take the time to look through it and vote on which game you want me to do then that would help me out a lot :D
Random Final Fantasy game between 1 and 9
Pros:
-You don't really need to play through past FF games to understand the later ones since each game tends to take place in its own little world with its own characters and plot, so you can just pick a random number and go.
-I'm a giant FF whore, so I can provide you with trivia, explanations, music, and videos. And THINGS
-FF games are pretty popular and tend to get referenced a lot, so if you hang around the gaming community often then it's kinda good to know at least a little about the games :O There are so many errors in that sentence and I'm too tired to fix them.
-FF games all tend to be really funny and quirky, so it'd be a very nice and fun-filled romp.
-These games are nostalgic for me, so I can offer funny stories and stuff :B Durrhurr
Cons
-The games from 7-9 are all specifically for the Playstation, and I've yet to find a Playstation emulator that both works and takes screenshots. Not to mention it's near impossible to find a site with PS ROMs that actually GIVE YOU THE ROMS and don't make you register or enter a password or preform this medieval voting ritual (that doesn't work) to get them. If any of you guys know a good PS emulator or a good site with PS ROMs and you can point me the way, then great! Otherwise, we'll just have to go with something else.
BASICALLY WHAT I'M SAYING IS if you decide to vote on an FF game from 7-9, pick a game from 1-6 as a backup plan. Word.
-FF plotlines tend to be really confusing and difficult to follow. I mean, I can offer explanations to the best of my ability and all, but there's always the chance that I'm mistaken on something or there's something I've missed :O BUT IF YOU DON'T MIND OR AREN'T REAL SERIOUS ABOUT THE PLOTLINE THEN GREAT!
-The earlier games are like completely immersed in Engrish, which can be funny for some but if you're trying to follow along the plot and all then it might be a little frusterating. THOUGH AGAIN, IF YOU'RE JUST COMING ALONG FOR THE RIDE THEN THIS SHOULDN'T BE TOO HUGE OF AN ISSUE
-These games are very very long, meaning they will take a very very long time to complete. I will try and get them done as quickly as I can, though :O
Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga (or maybe some other Mario game if you so desiiireeeeee. I know Wish wants me to do this one, though, so it goes here)
Pros
-Like pretty much all Mario games, this is really colorful and happy and hilarious. If this game doesn't make you smile at least once then you'd have to be some sort of communist or something
-I GOT MUSIC and it shouldn't be too hard to find vids on YouTube and stuff
-This game is touching and heartwarming in so many different ways that'll leave you feeling all giggly inside. NO REALLY.
-Fawful.
-Peasley.
-Relatively fast-paced, I think, so it shouldn't take insanely long to get through.
-WILL JUST GENERALLY BRIGHTEN UP YOUR DAY, REALLY
Cons
-I honestly can't think of anything :B Any cons here were erased once I upgraded my emulator.
Pokemon Red/Blue
Pros
-Pokemon is a part of pretty much everyone I know, so if I did this it would be A BONDING AND SENTIMENTAL EXPERIENCE FOR EVERYONE or at least for me, I dunno.
-Musics :B And videos, though Pokemon Red/Blue isn't really huge on cinematics.
-I know some trivia and easter eggs, yo
-Bright, happy, and funny.
-There's some really hilarious Engrish in these (some of it actually gets referenced kinda often, I think).
-Duhhhhh WELL I HAVE SOME FUNNY STORIES ABOUT POKEMON 8D
Cons
-There isn't really much of a plotline (at least not one I can remember) in this other than GO GET SOME POKEMANS AND BEAT THE ELITE FOUR so some people might not be that interested. Or something.
Legend of Mana
Pros
-This is a pretty obscure game (which I say because you never see anything for it ever) so it might be a fun, new experience for you guys :O
-The music is gorgeous. And I have it!
-There's videos for it on YouTube, and I imagine it isn't that difficult to record them myself.
-The graphics are lovely.
-Generally just a light-hearted, fun kind of game that'll leave you smiling.
Cons
-Again, there's the whole issue of not having a PS emulator and not being able to find working PS ROMs.
-I haven't played this game in years, but from what I remember it's kind of... strange :O Just with wonky plotlines and weird dialogue and stuff.
-Again, maybe I'm just remembering it wrong, but I don't remember there being any actual sense of direction or a real specific goal you have to complete. You just kinda go from place to place and help people, and then eventually you go to the final world and beat the boss and win. BUT I COULD BE MISTAKEN.
Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Pros
-Like with Pokemon Red/Blue, this game tends to be a real sentimental sort of thing with both me and the people I know :O
-One of the CLASSICS OMG
-Music/videos.
-Another sort of doofy, light-hearted kind of game with colorful graphics and weird dialogue.
Cons
-Actually, there isn't really anything that comes to mind.
Aaaaaaand that's all I can think of at the moment. Feel free to suggest something of your own if you want, and I'll check it out :D VOTE AWAY
