Matter of Language
by Matthew Scribner
"Video games are becoming widely acceptable as a mainstream medium, and they have considerable market pull. Story-centered games, such as RPGs, should be aware of the considerations of multicultural societies. RPGs released in North America and Europe should have multiple language options in the same copy, in recognition of the fact that many languages are spoken in these regions."
Rebuttal to "The Difference Between Cloud and Squall"
by Cloudslash
"Cloud did not ever truly think that he actually was Zack. He was greatly ashamed of his humiliating failures and used Zack's story to fabricate a more pleasant past in which he wasn't a weakling. Seeing that this was desireable compared to admiting a life of failure to everyone, he lived out his charade and eventually came to despise his true past so much that he couldn't even talk about it."

Why Final Fantasy X-2 May Be the First Final Fantasy I Don't Buy
by Howard Kleinman
"I downloaded the opening movie and I have to say that I've never been so stunned by such a silly display of CGI in my life. Yes, the artistry is amazing. (I wonder how many FMV's are in X-2. There seems to have been a decent amount of work put into them, as opposed to the seemingly rehashed environments.) But the idea of Yuna suddenly turning into a pop-singer is absolutely ludicrous."

"It's not enough to be good if you have the ability to be better."
-Alberta Lee Cox
Always organize your articles in a reasonable fashion. You should start with a clear introduction, so your audience knows what you're going to discuss throughout the rest of the editorial. You should then follow with three to five paragraphs which contain the meat of your argument, and then sum it all up in a conclusion paragraph.
