Qouted from a Poster on VGchartz.com

"Okay, I'm a regular poster over at AVSForum.com. It's a great group of guys over there, all A/V enthusiasts, some of these guys with $60,000+ Home Theater set ups, others like me who don't even own an HDTV yet, but who are there just to do some research and discuss games. All of us seem pretty mature.

Well, today, a poster by the name of BenjaminG posted this in one of the many 40GB PS3 rumor threads:

I've gone through his posting history, and he sounds legite. He's definately from Australia, and he seems to really know his stuff about Blu-Ray, gaming, and other stuff. Could this be for real!?!

Edit: Here's the thread. Second post from the bottom."

There you are some possible new info on a PS3 pricedrop.

EDIT: Damn the Pice drop all to hell >

I know I don't want to go hyping this game into the clouds, but every single thing that may have been slightly off in Melee seems to be getting a huge fix in Brawl. Its like instead of using a band-aid to fix a cut, they are doing intensive surgery and adding bio-machine enhancements to make sure the arm works 50x better.

Truly if this does not get AAA no game should. I just cannot think of a reason to not like this game yet.

 " Nonononono. Truce, you guys. Listen, we got
                    a higher purpose here, alright? A wake up
                    call for the Nintendo Generation. We demand
                    to have fair ESRB ratings, well, that comes with some
                    responsibility." Like Fire-bombing Jacks car. So what do we need?

 That's it! An electronic army! If I were us,
                    I'd get on the internet, send out a major

RAZOR
"Gamers of the World, Unite!"

Problem solved guys. Now execute the plan!

Am here to ask just one thing, who do you have the least/most respect for? ( You can list up to 2 for both )

The Sheep? -= Nintendo Fanboys?

The Cows? -= Sony Fanboys?

The Lemmings? -= Microsoft Fanboys?

The Hermits? -= PC Fanboys?

The PCWii's?

The Wii60's?

The PS360's?

I have only listed the ones where they seemed like a significant group, things like PS3Wii is very rare, and no one can hate a manticore! If you hate manticores you would be hating on one of the consoles you own.

For example my votes would go something like this.

Most respect for PCWii's and Wii60's

Least respect for PS360's and Hermits.

Star ocean is on there now :D

I agree with that, I never thought about it very much but yes FF7 really does stick to one thing the whole time, well 3 things I guess. Could killing Seph, saving the planet, and taking down shinra. With a little less of number 3 because the Diamond weapon went and blew away Midgar tower.

If there is one thing that I just dont like about FF7 it has to be Cloud and Spheroth, they just seem so blah to me. The one thing that really made me hate FF7 so much was the will power of cloud, when he gave Seph the black materia I was like " You are one giant worthless worm of a charecter I should replace you with Red13 you d***he!"

I guess the reason FF6 jumps around so much is so does the super power of the game. I mean Empire starts off with it, then the Espers eat the empire, Kekfa takes it from the espers by getting all powerd up by the statues then it all dissapears as all the espers die with the statues when you finish the game and all. I can see how many would find that kinda agravationg though.

Secret of Mana to be is the best Action RPG I've ever played. Perhaps because of that my expectation of Secret of Evermore was too great.

Also maybe addtion of bitterness of not getting Seiken Densetsu 3 might've added to it. But Secret of Evermore disappointed me when I played it like 15 (how long has it been?) years ago, while Seiken Densetsu 3 was excellent when I played it 3 years ago.

The presentation of Secret of Evermore was quite poor to my eyes with bland music and art design. Also story wasn't epic like Secret of Mana.

I loved Grandia, and remains as one of my favorite JRPG. If you think Grandia 3 looks great, I don't know why you can't find Grandia 1 attractive because they have almost identical battle system and Grandia is only game of the series where story was actually good enough to follow.

Final Fantasy 6 to me was one of the worst Final Fantasy I've played. The world was dark and gloomy, the mixture of technology and medievil setting didn't settle in with me that well. Previous FF games did have that too but technology felt more in place using wooden airship etc. Not robot army then there is stone built castles with Nazi looking like soilders attacking. Also the story of FFVI failed to capture me because it was divided into too many piece with each individual characters. While all these characters recieved some spotlight, but none of them really had much progression except handful and so many of their story was left untold like Shadow, leaving the game largely feeling like it was left unfinished. Also after World of Ruins, they didn't even bother trying to come up with plausible plot and just wrapped it up in a hurry. Really poor development of story and character development.

FFIV was quite poor too. It was big game only because it was first game that had ATB system first introduced but other than that, it was very mediocre all the way through. The story, the characters, etc.

I haven't liked Final Fantasy series that much actually until Final Fantasy 7 came out. Before then, I was big Dragon Quest fan and I saw Final Fantasy series as second tier RPG franchise, but that quickly changed with Final Fantasy 7. It won be over and until now I recongnize it as greatest RPG franchise yet.

Oh I see Secret of Mana 3/Seiken Densetsu 3 was realy, really really damn good, I shoudl include that in my list. i just have only gotten to play most of those gams threw emulator. Same with Star Ocean 2/1 ? *confused*. I personaly really liked FF6 I played it back when i didnt have Net and endded up being 100% complete once I had the chance to look everything up.

I agree there was a bunch of charecter devlopmet missing from FF6 though Terra and General Leo really should not have been split up like that, it broke my poor gamer heart :( Shadows story gets filled in with the dreams pretty good, I hear it was way more complete in the FF6 in Japan but even the re-realease dnt contain the full set of dreams. All in all its got some really great stories tied in ti though. Edgar and Sabin, Celes and Locke, the Opera scene *Giddy*, I just love that game to death.

Am gonna go include SM 3 and Star ocean in that SNES list. They were great games and i should have gave them a better chance I was playing them when it was GC era ( No games on GC so i had to do something ) I may have been harder on teh critque of them at an older stage.

Battle on the Big bridge! Yeah man that game did have rocking tunes like Mystic quest style XD I forgot. Maybe it should hold a place up there I forgot about so much of that game. It was hella long as I remember and yeah I guess weaker jobs give a challenge, but if you want a challenge I dont think RPG's are the place for it : /

Crazy talk, you say Illusion is easy but emerald weapon and that Queen ( I think it was a queen) after you beat the cave of trials and played the trumpet were hard?!? We must be better players at differnt things. Illusions of gaia rocked me over on finding gems and puzzels.

Although I can agree that the queen (She was a queen right?) After cave of trials was pretty tough just not at 250 with the Star sword ( Or the sword that shoots starts). Emerald weapon was way to easy though Knights of the round, Last move materia ( what ever let you cast a spell before you died thingy) and phonix ruined that game for me :( so easy. Also the insane counter magic and materia combos just made you way to powerful.

All be it I guess puzzels are my weakness. ; ;

Edit: Water breathing materia was also a big factor in emerald weapon when you werent a crazy insane high lvl.

@ Triangle

Not sure why you got it out for Secret f evermore, I can still play that game more then secret of mana, but to each his own. I will refine the list a bit but still you should not have said FF7 was the best FF.

I hated grandia to be honest, I got the the end of the world and wouldnt go further, I didnt like the combat and didnt like the charecters. Grandia 3 however I have had the pleasure of seeing my bro play a bit and it would make my PS2 list if i could ever make one in a heart beat.

FF 3 is the best then FF 4 then FF 1 then FFV and FFVI can battle it out for 4th. The first 3 are undisputable aside from moving them within the first 3 spots (eg FF1 FF3 FF4 to be an example.)
