FFVII - Dirge of Cerberus... meh - Page 5

Hell yes, I KNEW I wasn't the only Red XIII fanboy in the hizzy.

Honest to God, I think Squaresoft's developers are specifically not giving Red XIII major roles in the new batch of FFVII spinoff products just because they know he's the only character with integrity. And why mess up the only great character from a videogame by making him a major component in a bunch of crap? It's almost as if my opinion of Red XIII as a character, which was already damn near atmospheric before these new FFVII products, has increased as Nanaki continually finds ways to avoid this new stuff like the plague.

Red was one of my three main team in FF7. He's awsome on many levels. Why Square does him so little justic is a mystery.

Red XIII's game?

Final Fantasy 7-I'm Gona Shove a Cosmic Nuke Up Yo Ass!

...Ok, that was terrible, but you get the idea.

Easy to answer: The S-E designer are a bunch of lazy bastards that don't want to animate Nanaki's fur. It had to be so awesomely done, because, you know? Nanaki deserves that.

The only thing I really notice here is:

Gackt. Gackt doing a voice. Gackt.

I listen to his music. I have his songs.

Gackt. What exactly IS he to the game? I saw his name mentioned several times, and saw him named as a voice for 'genesis' in Neko-tera-san's link.

I know I'm late to the party but I rented and beat DoC and found it pretty repetitive and I found myself skipping over all the dialouge on the 2nd play thru. Mediocor but I've seen worse.

I only had 3 problems with the game:

A)Shortness
B)Apperently the one who made this and Advent Children hates Red XIII
C)I didn't find out until I started an ex-hard file that you can upgrade weapons (alright, that's not their fault)

Ok, I've only just rented the game last night, and only got a chance to start playing now.

I'm somewhat less then impressed. Two things stand out so far in this game. Cheesey voice acting and Vincent's uncontrollable need to swhoosh his cape.

Hehehehe... The cape-swooshing cracks me up. It's as though Square thought Vincent could possibly be just a liiiittle bit more overdramatic than he already was.

Basically the first half of the game went as follows:

1) Vincent mopes.
2) Vincent mutters the name "Lucrecia!!".
3) Flashback involving Lucrecia and possibly Hojo.
4) Vincent mopes some more.
5) Vincent is pulled from his moping to save some lost child.
6) Save kid, swoosh cape, dissappear dramatically.
7) Insert some emo-ish stuff about Deepground here.
8) More moping.
9) Yuffy does stuff and generally is annoying.
10) Mope, swoosh cape, repeat.
