OMG! DREAM COME TURE!

Well... I guess everyone knows who my favourite character is. And this character is now appearing in one of my most anticipated game of 2011!  Dissidia Duodecim: Final Fantasy!
Here is the latest trailer from Jump Festa, it is amazing, it seems like they implemented a lot of new stuff in this game, and it will be very complex and in depth.



If you don't know who my favourite character is, then you will know when you get to 4:37-4:38 in this awesome epic trailer. OMG! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! I GET TO SEE HER IN ACTION ONCE AGAIN!!! WOOHOOO!!!!!!!!! YESSS!! WOOT!!! lol.
Anyways. I'm gonna go celebrate this along with Christmas. Merry Christmas Everyone!
<3

The urge... why can't I keep it off my mind..

Sigh... Ever since I stopped playing FFXI, I could not stop thinking about it. It's like a drug, or worse lol. I deleted my character, threw away my items and uninstall it from my computer just to prevent me from going back to the game. I think about the game, but never really had an urge to play it again. I still look up informations, news and learn about the game, but never really wanted to go back and play it until...

 A good friend of mine, who also used to play sent me a txt. A txt that made my heart thump, a txt that made me excited, a txt that made me fall in love with the game that I loved so much - again. Lol.. I just sounded like a retard but it's true.  The text said... 

'Want to play FFXI with me again? lol'

ZOMG FFFFUUUUU ZOMG ZOMG WHY DID HE SEND ME THAT TXT?!?!? I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT A SIMPLE TXT THAT CAN STIR MY HEART UP SO MUCH THAT I FEEL THAT I HAVE TO PLAY FFXI, I CAN'T LIKE NOT BREATH WITHOUT PLAYING FFXI... (Maybe not to that extent) 

The memories, the joy of enjoying the game with my friends all came rushing back to me.

sigh... well enough ranting. I'm gonna contact Square Enix Support and see if I can get Tacco back. Hopefully I can, but If not, I might start a new character and just enjoy the game until the PS3 version of FFXIV releases.

Final Fantasy is a drug. A good one though.. (thats what I kept on telling myself)

Whenever sang Eyes On Me.. On the stage, celebrating victory!

After an epic vote out uhhh last week... (I know... I'm a little slow) it was surely epic, many many songs were equal until the last few days and I was kinda worried that I might not get a winner... but however!!! Just before the poll ended, one song came up on top by a mere one vote!!! 

And the song that claimed victory over allllll the other songs were...

Eyes On Me - Faye Wong Composed by Nobuo Uematsu

It is such a beautiful song, and it is one of my personal favourites too! Also, we have our first ever comment on this site! GenieGenie who kindly left a comment! Thank you so much :D and also thank you to everyone that visited my blog! Really really happy!

Here is a video clip of Eyes On Me and the lyrics to the song. Enjoy!

Whenever sang my songs

On the stage, on my own

Whenever said my words

Wishing they would be heard

I saw you smiling at me

Was it real or just my fantasy

You'd always be there in the corner

Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you

Same old songs, just once more

My last night here with you?

Maybe yes, maybe no

I kind of liked it your way

How you shyly placed your eyes on me

Oh, did you ever know?

That I had mine on you

Darling, so there you are

With that look on your face

As if you're never hurt

As if you're never down

Shall I be the one for you

Who pinches you softly but sure

If frown is shown then

I will know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you

Close as I wanted to be

Close enough for me

To feel your heart beating fast

And stay there as I whisper

How I loved your peaceful eyes on me

did you ever know

That I had mine on you

Darling, so share with me

Your love if you have enough

Your tears if your're holding back

Or pain if that's what it is

How can I let you know

I'm more than the dress and the voice

Just reach me out then

You will know that you're not dreaming

Darling, so there you are

With that look on your face

As if you're never hurt

As if you're never down

Shall I be the one for you

Who pinches you softly but sure

If frown is shown then

I will know that you are no dreamer

Birth By Sleep leads to No Sleep.

Now since it's been a few days since I last posted something, and the poll is closed now. Firstly, lets congratulate... Xion, Roxas, and... Kairi! Sorry Axel, you didn't make it! you got beaten by Kairi thats why you got... uhhh failed-photoshopped-out... Anyhow, these three awesome characters got even votes! Congrats to Ax... I mean Kairi, Roxas and Xion! 

Now about Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep.

Like the title, while playing Birth By Sleep while university is still going on, bad idea. I ended up playing almost all night and hardly got any sleep until I had my next class. so bad >.> I am currently at 76 hours into the game, 94% completion on everything. Just need to beat the last hidden boss, Mysterious Figure and collect some commands and items. One thing I want to say to Mysterious Figure... !@$#$^ you! you are too damn hard! Can't kill you after you turn invisible and create too many invisible clones of yourself to ambush me... ahhh! Anyways...

First off, I want to say that this game is AWESOME fun. The battle system is well designed, lots of varieties and combos you can create, endless customization depending on your play style and a really complex Command Melding system where you can upgrade your abilities and skills. 

The General battles are like all Kingdom Hearts games but this time with more new (and sometimes annoying) monster, the boss battles are innovative and really fun, where each requires a different strategy and are all very challenging on Proud or Critical mode! 

spoiler alert 

About the story, there are four parts to it. One main story for each of the main characters, Terra, Ventus and Aqua, and then there is the Final Episode which is unlocked after beating all three characters story and collect all Xahanort's Report, where you play as Aqua. You will also see many familiar faces in this game, many many familiar faces!

The first character I chose to start with was Ventus, as he looked too much like Roxas, and it seems to be appropriate to start with someone thats... rather familliar. After going through and completing his story, I was a little confused, as things were jumping too fast, and there were things that I just couldn't figure out... like why was Aqua standing in the middle of Radiant Gardens after the battle against Trinity Armour? Why did Terra appear in the Land of Departure with the power of darkness? 

It was just a little confusing, but as soon as I started the second character's story (Aqua), I knew that everything will make sense after I finish all three characters. The story is told in three different perspective, and it is so well told that nothing is really repeated, and every character's story was fresh and entertaining like a brand new game! Really well designed and thought out I have to say! Every character took me about 12-18 hours, Ventus' too me the longest because he was the first character that I played, and Aqua was the hardest to beat in my opinion because of bosses. Also, the Disney characters are awesome and was blended into the game extremely well! (maybe with the exception of Peter Pan and his crew... but Tinkerbell is awesome though!)

For me, the best part of the story, was the secret ending that you can unlock by beating all stories including the Final Episode in proud or critical mode. You can unlock it in normal mode but you need to complete the Report section for all characters, and that is really hard... so choose Proud mode if you are interested in the secret ending. The secret ending tells you so much that is otherwise left unresolved in the normal endings, and it is a delightful one because after watching it, I'm certain that there will be a next Kingdom Hearts game, and hopefully we'll get to see Aqua, Terra and Ventus again! Really hope they will all appear or have some sort of relation with Sora in the next game.  

Another awesome thing about this game is that you learn quite a bit about the past of Organisation XIII, when they were all still human, and you even get to fight some of them! 

                                                End of spoilers

Well, I will still be playing Birth By Sleep until I beat Mysterious Figure... or until my thumb falls off while trying to beat him... hopefully not the latter since I want to play more games and the piano... lol.

Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep is overall an amazingly well put together, well thought out, and extremely fun game. Oh it is also really beautiful, but it does lack CGI cut scenes... sigh.. the limitations of PSP... But if you only finish one or two character's story, you probably won't get the whole package of fun and experience. 

A lot about my recent Kingdom Hearts accomplishments

Since I can't play Final Fantasy XIV (sad face... really sad face...) I will talk about a little bit of my recent gaming accomplishments, or simply, my recent Kingdom Hearts accomplishments since the games I've played recently are Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days and Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep.

These two games, I give you one two words! Awesome, Beautiful, Epic. (Here you'll see Roxas or Zack or whoever encounters Phil counting...) lol (my failed attempt at an inside joke...)

I have finished both games almost 100%. Just need to kill Mysterious Figure, collect a few more items for Birth By Sleep, and do some challenge missions for 358/2 (the latter which is unlikely unfortunately...) And for the next post or two, I will talking about my experiences with these games.

Firstly I'll talk about 358/2 Days. This game... it is something that you should not miss if you are a Kingdom Hearts fan! Wow! The battle system is fun and engaging with up to 19 playable characters in mission mode, the character development system is deep with lots and lots of possibilities. The graphics on the game is of great quality for a NDS game, and the mission styled progression system is fun, but it does get repetitive after some time, but it's not necessary to do them all so it's up to you if you want to complete the game fully. You might be wondering why I haven't talked about the story yet, even though that I am more of a storyline person. Well, the reason it is because... the story is the best of the game and it is sooooo good.

The story was so epic, with morales and a lot of touches of sadess and sorrow (hence my favourite original music from this game is called 'Musique Pour la Tristesse de Xion' or Sadness and Sorrows of Xion). 

            a little (major) spoiler alert here

Xion, a new character that is introduced in this game, yet you should be very familliar if you know the Kingdom Hearts character Sora, Riku and Kairi. Roxas, Axel and Xion. Any resemblance? But! it's not as obvious as you may think! Xion is actually a part of Sora, and if Roxas is Sora's Nobody, then what is Xion?! A created replica of Roxas, who eventually develop a 'Heart' for herself. This is something that a 'heartless' can't do, but obviously they are Sora's (hence why she can wield the Keyblade as well). She then discovers the truth of where the flashbacks and memories comes from, then she began to think and develop 'feelings' that she should give these back to Roxas and finally Sora. The consequence is obviously that she has to sacrifice herself. For me, the story was developed so well within the game, in the end, even though you know it is going to be something similar, when you actually see and hear the dialog, it is really heart breaking and I had tear drops in my eyes almost wanting to escape while I was watching the scenes towards the end of the game. I have to say the story is one of the best in the series, definately one of the saddest Kingdom Hearts story line.

                                                                      end or spoiler

For those who haven't played the game, you must play at least for the storyline. It's something that shouldn't be missed if you like Kingdom Hearts. In the next post, I will be talking about Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep. 

For this week's poll, I'll be posting something KH related! Who is your Favourite Kingdom Hearts Character?! Main Characters only however, and does not contain any Disney characters unfortunately... (Sorry Mickey!)
