[QUOTE="Robot_Slough"] Firstly the hype for MGS4 is not all that great. And a lot of Sony fans even have mention it seems Kijoma has gone a little over board on the crazy flying dino robots and such. I think this series has hit it's end in MGS3. And that Kijoma is clearly grasping at this point tryi ng to come up with story lines.
FF is BLAH MEH it's freaking 13 i mean come on and i'm even hearing some Sony fans saying they are a little concerned about the story and were the franchise has headed. And keep in mind not all FF have been great there has been a few FLOP FF.
And well as for PS3 well it's floptastic thus far. Can not really dispute that.

I think the MGS series will always be good games, however I can agree with you about the FF series. It has been degrading since FFVI. VII was ok, but its generally hyped because it was most players first rpg. Its not superior than VI in any way, shape or form. There is a huge quality difference in terms of story and music with the FF games after 7. Amano left the art work scene and Uematsu stop doing the music. IMO the art and music direction is the most important part of rpgs while graphics coming in last. Notice how some posts here says FFXIII looks great! Yeah it does, but how is the story and music? Probably no where near on par of the originals.
Another way you can tell the series is going downhill is to look how Square is just milking the FF7 series, they are coming out with new ones left and right to pull in cash because they know most players are attached to 7 because memories only. Aside from that being said imo FF8-Flop FF9=Flop FFX=Pretty decent FFXI=Not sure why they didn't just call it FFOnline FFXII=Trash and I'm guessing FFXIII will follow in the downward spiral. Though I hope not.
I can tell youran Amano fan ;) thats cool but Im afraid Im going to have to disagree with some pointsFor one FF7 wasnt praised for being peoples first RPG(even though it got alot of people into them) its praised for being the first 3D FF game one and 2 what are you talking about the story was amazing. Also how can you say 8 and 9 were flops, 8 was a great game as for 9 I never really got a chance to play it but my friends say its awesome(you dont have to agree, but hey thats why they are opinions) 10 was amazing(one of my favourites) and so was 12(I dont see what people have against this game I thought it was just........well AMAZING :D) I think 13 is going to be a good game to, but we'll see.
....Oh, and this is off topic but have you read the sandman illustrated by Amano? its neat.
Oh and this is to the TC, go home you dont know what you are talking about. MGS is getting plenty of hype and everyone is praising it, the same goes for FFXIII with the expetion of the fact that we really dont know much about it. So listen kid stop being a fanboy and enjoy the game ;)
