What about Cid? |
Hola,
You know with all this talk about Nobu and Amano returing for Final Fantasy 9 everyone has forgotten to ask if the three most import people of all are returning. Has everyone forgot about Cid and more importantly Vicks and Wedge? -Tiny Dustin |
Brad: |
Amano Hater speaks out.. |
Ok, can someone PLEASE tell me what the big deal with Amano art is?
There's all this collective "oohing" and "ahhing" from the gaming world
that "Finally, Amano has come back to Final Fantasy!" What's the
friggin' deal? C'mon, look at the stuff he draws. I'm not gonna pull
any punches here. IT'S UGLY! I mean the guy could at least try to make
his drawings somewhat look like the actually characters from the game.
Look at the garbage he made for FFVI. You can hardly tell the
difference between Terra and Celes. I guess my real question is, why do
people like his art so much? It doesn't make any sense.

64 DD?! That's some big t-- er.. Â_Â |
Hey Brad
What ever happened to the 64-DD. Is Nintendo coming out with it, or have they decided to trash the idea like they have with so many of their other products. I'm pretty sure I heard somewhere that they weren't going to bring it out but I just wanted to find out for sure. Thank you oh Brad of great knowledge. -psuedo-link =o |

Triangle Man Hates Everybody Man.. |
Hey Brad,
Don't you agree the stories in "Particle Man" aren't complete? I mean, we all know Triangle Man beets Particle Man and Person Man. Well, those two were both wimps. I want to know what would happen in a fight between Triangle Man and Universe Man. Sure, Universe Man has the great size and awesome power, not to mention the coolest watch, but Triangle Man has that extreme Hate for everything. So Brad, who do you think would win? Universe man or Triangle man? Thanks for your help in this dire predicament! ~Final "when he's underwater does he get wet?" Heven |

Lunar Story Clarification |
Hey Brad- I have had Lunar since the day it came out, but I was too caught up in many games, so I am just gettin around to finishing it. I was wondering if you could clear something up. In the scene where Dyne and Ghaleon are arguing over whether or not to bring Althena back to life, who is for what choice? I seemed to have been lost in it all- from what I gather, Dyne wants her back on Earth, but Ghaleon wants her to stay where she is. And if I am right, why does Ghaleon then decide to team up with her? It is all very confusing to me. Please help clear this up. Scott Hedrick |

18 years of games... |
Today is my 22nd birthday, huzzah! I was thinking about it the other day,
and I've been playing games for 18 years (since my dad got a little Texas
Instuments computer that had Space Invaders). Yikes. And been following
this site for 2 1/2... whoa. I just wanted to say thanks again to
everyone who makes this site so great!
Also (gratuituos question) why is Digimon allowed to rip off everything? And instead of just limiting themselves to Pokemon, why do they get Cloud, Aeris and Cactuar lookalikes, as well as another monster that looks like FF8's Snow Lion? -Toni, the ancient one |

SO2, the Cave of Trials |
Greetings Lord Brad. I have A question about SO2 for you. In the secret
dungeon is there any way that you can get to the floor you where on when you
left the dungeon without having to walk all the way back? If there is please
let me know. Thank you Oh Great Oracle.

Problem is I have no idea where to find that um.. Metox herb or whatever.. Please help me out!! I'll give you a shiny box of nothing! -Silence, that chick in the corner stalking any cute anime type guys- "One thing I've learned about vampires Ð they keep pulling new rabbits out of their cloaks.

More Suggestions for Good Guys |
As promised, today's little ditty will consist of helpful hints for those
seeking to save the world from evil, all while short on cash. Unfortunately,
not all of us can get jobs as SeeDs, and good equipment ain't cheap (Unless
you find it in a treasure chest somewhere). What's a lower-class independant
on welfare (Sorry... just got out of tax season...) to do? Read on...
Q: I don't get it. Nomatter how many woodland critters I beat up, not one of them leaves any cash behind! What gives? A: Well, first of all, you have to beat up the RIGHT KIND of woodland critters. Chipmunks and other Disney-esque critters are usually a bad idea, and no one's gonna' think very much of you if you step on tiny little spiders and slugs all day. They need to be at least a foot long before it makes a difference at all. Also, it's very possible that the critters you're picking on don't HAVE any money! Yes, it's shocking, I know, but not all critters carry their wallets with them, and even if they do, they might not have any money on them at the time. My reccomendation is this: Try to make the best of the situation. If the critter doesn't drop any money, see if they drop any credit cards, movie tickets, or subway tokens. Q: How can I scrape together enough cash to buy a decent evil-proof vest? A: Well, if you don't have the patence to to get your cash killing various critters, there are a few other easy ways to make cash. The next time you visit a town or city or something, just run into every single house, and start digging through everyone's junk looking for spare change. Don't worry, no one will mind. No one will even find it unusual that you're invading little Timmy's piggy bank, and they'll just go on with what they're doing. Now this might seem like stealing to you, but you have to understand, this stuff is MEANT for you. The people in these houses are the same people that are going around forests, leaving behind 'treasure chests' full of valuables for you to pocket at your leisure (Another way to make easy money). You can even find these chests in the world-threatening evil-of-the-day's forts. "Why would complete strangers and world-threatening evil-of-the-days want to just give me all their stuff?" you ask? Oddly enough, they all see you as the reverse of the Tooth Fairy, so the next time you swing around, you'd better bring enough dentures to go around... Q: Well, if that's the case, can I take things directly out of complete strangers' pockets? A: Yes, but you need to be sure to do two things. First, NEVER call it 'stealing'. 'Accepting a gift of generosity', 'Gathering money for save-the-world fund', and 'Treasure Hunting' are all acceptable alternatives. Second, don't do anything else funny while your hands are in their pockets. Make checks payable to -CaspianX |
Information on getting codes to work with a GameShark? |
Hey, Brad,
Well, I have something on my chest and I can't think of a better person to talk to this about. Heh heh. I don't know how you feel about 'em, but I recently bought a Gameshark because I have a bunch of games I want to beat without spending millions of hours leveling up and whatnot (no time anymore). I usually try my darnest before resorting to this, but sometimes I'm not sure how some bits in games are even _possible_ to beat (like the last battle in SaGa II). Anyway, I've tried craploads of codes for various games like SaGa Frontier II and Final Fantasy V, but they never work! I know I enter them right, I check. Once in a while, one of them _may_ work, but this is a rarity. Can you ask the readers about this, because I want to know if I'm trying the few codes that don't work or if I really did waste my money on this piece of junk. Thanks heaps, Brad, Ben |
Lans, tried .. and failed :( |
Hello, again. I just wanted to announce that getting Lancelot/Lans in the party doesn't appear to work in Tactics Ogre. I was rather sceptical at the hint at GameSages, but since I was playing through it a second time, I thought, what the heck, might as well try it (Playing Chaos, BTW... My first time was Neutral, which is annoying, because Aloser leaves you and Guildus doesn't join either, and my friend played Lawful, were you get a lot of cool characters, including Zapan and Vice.). Well, I did exactly what the hint said, and nothing happened... well, their description sounded juicy anyway. Oh, and in case you didn't play far enough yet... if any Lancelot would join you, It'd have to be Tartaros/Tartare... you'll see what I mean. But since I think Tartaros is cool, I'd still like to be corrected about getting him to join :-P P.S. I like Dragon Quest 1 better than FF1... sure, it is really primitive, but FF1 was just too annoying. You never knew wether you would encounter one enemy of a kind, or eight of them. And two out of three encounters appeared to be some sort of ambush... Well, anyway, I just thought DQ went much more smoothly.
--- [Editor's Comment: Perhaps it only worked in the SNES version of the game...] |

Please tell me if you guys know anything about a prequel or sequel for xenogears. All my friends that played it love the whole entire game. Please let me know as soon as possible.
Brad: As always, I'm only as knowledgeable as the news staff here at RPGamer.. if you don't see it in the news, then I probably don't have much more insight into the future. It's a possibility, of course, but honestly, I don't see much sequel/prequel possibility left in the storyline.. maybe a new installment that isn't related story-wise, but has similar game mechanics, (like the FF series is right now).. who knows. |

Dear Brad, What does the Infinity Ring in Star Ocean 2 do? I can't seem to figure out what the heck it does, if anything. - Dav |

Well, that's it for today.. sorry it's up so late.. I may only do two Q&A's this weekend due to all this, but I'll hopefully pull something together for tomorrow instead of putting it off until Sunday, (even though it's like 10pm over on the East Coast already.. doh!) .. anyhow, I like the new look, but the only question in my mind is.. look at the quickies. Half are horizontally laid out, and half are vertically (vertical is when my answer is below theirs, horizontal is when my comments are on the side). Vote and tell me which is better. Or maybe I'll alternate them, that's somewhat interesting at least. And how do you like the general look of things now? Give me an email, lemmie know what's up, let me know how much you love/hate the new look, just .. do somethin'. Anyhow, see you next time! Oh yeah, and now that you see that Shade has fininshed the Blinkey Heather.. though after the transparenting of it, it's still a bit jaggy.. if anyone can fix that, yo, free plug for you, or something.
