FFIV DS updates.

Apparently there's gonna be a new feature where you can play a minigame as this blocky dude. He kinda looks like the Pillsbury Dough Boy.

There's also some new Ninja magic for Edge, and one of the first new story scenes which involves...

Spoiler.

Just so everyone can see this.

I just....wow. I....wow. Everyone who thought this didn't look hella awesome is a chump.

Also:

Final Fantasy Compilations -

FFIV DS info.

Hey CSM, you can turn off voices if you really want. Go figure.

Just....amazing....

I think I might have a new favorite Final Fantasy....and I might prefer the new translation to the old!

And it's coming out in just a week and a half! Any news about a stateside release?

I do have one complaint though....

What the hell is this?????????

Please tell me this is just some sidequest that's completely boring and stupid and lame and doesn't get you anything powerful. This....doesn't have anything to do with the plot, does it? -CSM

^^It looks absolutely STUNNING!

Wyborn · #5

That last FMV there? I think my eyes caught fire. They actually translated how bad-ass Kain should be.

Interesting note: Kain is actually voiced by the Japanese VA for Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop. Palom and Porom? The Japanese VA for Alphonse Elric.

^Indeed. I LOVE Kain!

Very cool! Have they released any info about American VAs?

Wyborn · #7

Unfortunately no, not to my knowledge.

It'd be pretty killer if Kain was voiced by Blum, though.

ZeldaGirl · #8

^HELLZ YES.

Crazyswordsman · #9

Kain needs to have a British accent. That's how I envision him. And Cecil needs to have the accent of Russel Crowe's character in Gladiator. I think Blum can do a good job though. -CSM

#10

Kain needs to die. That's the one thing I didn't like about IV.

Wyborn · #11

I submit that anyone who did not like Kain is a big goober.

There I said it. I ain't sorry.

Crazyswordsman · #12

Kain is a member of the league of people who can kick your ass, along with Shadow, Vincent (who I personally don't like, but still), Auron, and Balthier. -CSM

This, slightly fix'd.

[QUOTE=ZeldaGirl]Kain is a member of the league of people who can kick your ass, along with Shadow, Vincent (who is a bit of an emo ponce), Auron, and Balthier. -CSM[/QUOTE]

Double fix'd.

Mentioning Vincent in the same breath as Kain is a travesty; Kain is the second best character in the entire series. Vincent is a chump.

ZeldaGirl · #15

^...but he's voiced by Blum!

So is Johnny Sasaki but nobody cares about him either.

Crazyswordsman · #17

The only beef I have with Vincent is this:

1. His attack power is middling
2. There are characters with better Limit Breaks than him.

It's not so much Vincent sucks (he probably doesn't), it's more that there are characters out there that are more useful. -CSM

Nomyt · #18

I'm with ZG's Fix'd quote.

X-3 · #19

Thanks a lot, Wyborn. Now I need new pants. [/toomuchinformation]

Game looks stunning. This looks like THE version of FFIV to get.

Like Yuffie, (Except for All's creation or whatever that level 4 is) but I'm the only one who actually sees that.
