There is something deeply wrong with the internet tonight. I have
nearly no spam.
Onswah: Let the pontification begin!

"I before E except after C," said the weird scientist.

You said Strife isn't a verb - which of course is true - however
Strive is a verb and bares no resemblance to the word Strife. The
letter which you were referring to when you said Strife isn't a verb
didn't use Strife as a verb it used Strive as a verb. So in reality
you weren't wrong in saying Strife was not a verb, you just had no
business saying such as thing in response to the letter you were
trying to ridicule.
Feel fre to make fun of me if I am somehow mistaken...

Onswah:
Hey their grammar cop, stop trying to ruin are fun.
Googleshng:
Wasn't doing any ridicule, I'm just saying that for a proper spoofing of that tongue twister, you have
to actually use the second half of the name. I'll pass on the making of fun though.

Still no hiding the recycling from last week.

In response to the guy who commented about Sephiroth's hair being
now-short
in FF7:AC:
Apparently, as I infer from interviews, that character is not
Sephiroth.
Problem solved.

|
Onswah:
I think the least of my concerns over Advent Children was Sephiroth's
haircut. Who knows maybe it will blow me away. Maybe his stylist was right
short is all the rage this season.
Googleshng:
Continuing my earlier point, it would be cheating to say, for example "How much wrath wouldst Sephiroth
hath if Sephiroth doth hath wrath?"

There sure is a lot of backreference in this bin of lost letters.

My definition of band is broad, I mean anything from a philharmonic
orchestra to britney spears and anything in between. Also, on a
sidenote do you
think Spike from Cowboy Bebop and Nicholas D. Wolfwood have the same
tailor?
My question is do you think Shiva ( the "real" one) will send the
creator of
Final Fantasy into Hades for eternal damnation for using a blue mostly
naked
woman as his representative summon while Odin has a semi correct
interpretation?
|
|
Onswah:
While it is tempting to think of Hironobu Sakaguchi rotting in the 6th
circle of hell for that atrocity, I'm sure Shiva's punishment will be less
overt and far more vicious. How humiliating will it be to be the only one in
the after life not invited to Shiva's Halloween party.
Googleshng:
Hindu gods aren't generally much up for sending people to Hades. That's more the sort of thing Poseidon
would do. I'd think Shiva would honestly be less upset over exchanging a pair of arms for a pair of boobs
than getting stuck as the ice summon. What part of dancing death and destruction includes making snow
cones?
Oh yes, and the point still stands on the music bit, although a game making use of a full orchestra could
be neat from time to time.

Comic type things.
|
Wasn't a gal named Queen of Dorks makin' some sorta comic a while
back? Haven't seen it in a while. If she's quit, I could take over.
I draw the most incredible stick figures, and I don't require 3 emails
a day to stay motivated.
I can even draw ASCII comics!
O It's hot!

Onswah:
Your grasp of ASCII, while remarkable, lacks a certain fauve aspect that I
have come to expect from the high art of Q&A. Alas I must defer to the
demagogue of this illustrious column in such matters as to what to hang in
the gallery. </pretentious ass>
Googleshng:
There's actually quite a long history of cheesy little comics getting inserted into Q&A columns. It started
like five years ago when some loser started attaching these stupid little comics about slimes to letters,
along with the occassional screwed up bit of image edittery. But then I didn't have time to make those
anymore, being too busy writing the column. Since then there's been that little one of Radrisol's, until
he burned out, the silly stuff Chesh used to send in before landing a gig, and Queenie's comics there.
Of course, she vanished mysteriously at the same time Andrew did, which I suppose leaves the door open
for someone else to start flinging wacky in-joke doodles my way.

I don't THINK this is the same Queenie...

Hey Goog,
Sorry about the unclarity (Is that even a word?? o_0) of my last
email. I
meant to define classics as games from the Super NES and down. And
also, I
never meant to say that Legend of Mana was a "Classic", that's why I
put it in
parentheses. Anyway...
I've been playing Super Mario RPG lately (Almost beat it!) and, like I
said
before, it rocks. I also loved Paper Mario for the N64, and I'm
eagerly
awaiting Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga for the GBA. Is it just me,
or is Nintendo
just REALLY GOOD at making RPGs? They should do that more often... if
they
did, Nintendo could become the RPG kings again! Maybe they could make
a Zelda
RPG... Hmm...
Also, I was ecstatic when Square announced their Kingdom Hearts sequel
(Not
to mention the GBA game, wheee!! ^_^) and what really caught my eye
was when
they said that there would be more FF Characters in it... Could this
mean that
there will be some characters from 9 and 6!? I highly doubt it
because FF6
and 9 characters were made by different people, but hey, it's good to
dream...
Heheh... Zidane and Locke, in full polygons... *Drool* [/fangirl]
So that's my email... what do you think on these issues? Oh, and
here's a
message for your cats: Meow! Mew mew myaaaa! Woof? MYAAAH!!!
*Gets mauled
by cats* Ow...
"Prepare to meet IRON SKILLET!!!!"

Onswah:
My only foray into Mario on the RPG front was Legend of the Seven Stars but
I liked it a lot so Superstar saga is on my Christmas list.
This weekend I finally got around to beating Kingdom Hearts, and after about
36 seconds of mulling it over I was happy that this got changed from Brave
Fencer Musashi 2. It's not that I didn't like the first one it's just
well... To put it better there are only so many culinary monikers to be
doled out. Could you imagine taking advice from Knight Cheesegrater?
Googleshng:
Not enough people played Paper Mario. Shame that, it's a great game.
Anyway though, if memory serves, the concept of Kingdom Hearts originally came from Tetsuya Nomura, the
character designers from FFs 7 8 and 10. So, odds are those are the only games from which characters will
likely be pulled.
