Googleshng - July 31 '03- 2:00 Eastern Standard Time
In case I didn't mention it, I rather missed doing this when I was in
Japan, but the week is over so back I go into the basement I'm stored in for the weekends.

See, this is the sort of problem that comes from too many games just using swords.

Hey Goog,
I've been writing a story, and was using different weapons for all the
characters, and I wanted to use the weapon that the hero from Suikoden II
uses, but I can't find the name of the weapon anywhere. So, I guess my
question is, do you know the name of said weapon, or do I need to make one
up for it?
Thanks,
Ricky Takare

If I'm not looking at a screwed up piece of artwork here, those would seem to be tonfas.

No, it isn't from THAT Thor.

Hey Goog!
First of all, I'd like to say that I'm glad to have you back!
Second, Your trip to Japan sounded like lots of fun..( Except for the whole airport scene ) I need to go, but I have no money...
Third, How is Dragon Force 2?
Umm.. I know I had another question, but I forgot..
Yeah, you should really read Shadow Puppets! That book kicked!

Googleshng:
Dragon Force 2 is quiet spiffy. I thought I implied that I read Shaddow Puppets somewhere or other too.
It was also fairly spiffy, but it strikes me as being a couple hundred pages longer than it needs to be.
I just hope he isn't planning on some sort of Children of the Mind style followup here.

It's ARMs tanjit! Respect the forced accronym!

So yeah, don't you think Wild Arms Episode 1: Reloaded
is gonna be the sweetest? If you
don't...then...umm...oh well. Well after all that time
with fanboys crying over an FF7 remake it's nice to
see a game that really deserves a remake get it's
comeuppance. I mean, I like FF7 as much as the next
guy, but does it really need to be remade? That's like
a rewrite of Dickens or the Bible (wait, the second
one's been done, but you know what I mean).
Wild Arms deserves this though, because it never
really got the opportunity to shine on its on,
partially due to the soon-after release of FF7 and
partly due to it's poor translation. It's nice to see
the underdog get a second chance.

Googleshng:
I honestly have my doubts on the remake in question. Most people tend to agree that WA1 is the best in
the series, largely due to the lack of bad polygonal graphics on the map screen, and that it doesn't
have that weird MP doesn't actually get spent system. Sony's translational skills have gone way downhill
since too. I am fairly curious how it'll actually turn out though.

Good day, Sir(?) Google.
First, could you have someone restore the link to Andrew's column from last
Saturday on July 26th? I am a big fan of this website's Q & A column, and I
hate to miss out on a column if I can help it. So, could you help restore the
link to that specific column on your Q & A and the archives?
Second, the phrase "But why is there a pig in my house?" refers to that
moment in Illusion of Gaia when Will meets Kara for the first time in the entire
SNES RPG and yells at her about why Hamlet is inside Will's house. Am I right
or wrong about that guess?
Have a good day.
Please recover well from your jet lag.

I'll look into the link thing, and you're right about the quote. Have a tilde. ~
