"Final Fantasy, for me, began to lose it's luster in the PS1 era. This was around the time that they started moving away from the fantasy aspect and into a more sci-fi theme for each subsequent installment. With the exception of IX. I loved the hell out of that game. "

"I am honestly surprised that no one mentioned the soundtrack to Beyond Good and Evil. To be truthful, this was the first game soundtrack I ever went out of my way to find, and what a find it is.
Some of my favorites:
Home Sweet Home

Peyj's Death

And my personal favorite, Mammago's Garage

Just listening to these songs is giving me the urge to play through BGE again.
Not that that's a bad thing. "

"Ryan, your review of ML2 was spot on. That game still gets regular play at my house. Unfortunately, you don't know what you're talking about when it comes to the Virtual Boy. Yes, the system was bad, and most of the games sucked, but there were a few gems among the turds. Most notably Red Alarm, Wario World (The first Wario-centric game as well, if memory serves me) along with the original Mario Tennis. Not only were they all fun, but they kept me coming back and playing for years. Along with my friends and family. Unfortunately, my Virtual Boy broke some years go, so I've not had the chance to play them in some time, but I know I spent hours playing them when I was younger. "

"eally have to ask: did you play any of these games with friends, or did you try and play an MMO solo? Because if you were, then you were missing out on one of the biggest draws, the social interaction. you kept saying you couldn't play past a few days, because they didn't have any of the options you described in your article. But it seems to me that you didn't get high enough to experience any of those things, even if they were in the game.
If you find a few buddies to play with from the start, the experience will be much better. Not only will you level faster, but the "grind" won't seem so much like one. Because you'll be too busy having fun with your friends. MMO's aren't meant to be played alone, they're all about the social aspect.
You also mentioned soundtracks and PVP as points that would woo your hard-earned money. I'd like to ask in what way the soundtracks from WoW or Warhammer are lacking, as they are both excellent examples of how music not only enriches the story, but also make some aspects of the game even more epic than they already are.
In closing, I believe that your limited play with MMO's as a genre is not so much that they are lacking key components, but that you are lacking in attention span. This isn't the latest Final Fantasy, where the story progresses at a pace set by the game designer, this is a world that progresses as far as your imagination can take it, and time, will"

As much as I'd love for this to be true, I doubt the airlines will go unfiltered. Their PR department would go into fits the first time some guy gets caught by the helicopter mom sitting behind him, because her kid wanted to know why those people on his screen had no cloth"
