I wouldn't go that far. That bloody double or triple turn bug was so bad that it made the game easier than...well, Easytype.

That said, the new espers intrigue me. As does all the bonus fights. Gilgamesh = :swoon:

Jam it back in, in the dark.

That's right, FFVIA for $20. Enjoy.

coupon taken from CAG. hopefully they don't mind the distribution from them to me to you.

Uhhh...

That coupon only works for games that are 39.99 or more. Last I checked, 29.99 < 39.99.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

No idea, I was just basing the assumption on the price listed by SOLDIER. Sorry. =o

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The reason for FF4 being the way it was was because it was a WSC-->GBA port, whereas FF5 was rewritten specifically for the GBA. Or at least, that's what I heard.

I guess we'll find out in a couple of days if the slowdown rumours are true. They seem prevalent enough to suggest that they are, though.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

That didn't stop Nintendo from doing FF5 and FF4 guides, both of which have been done to death before.

The guide Daravon posted earlier is probably your best bet if you must* have a book, even though it's in Japanese. It's 400 odd pages, and it looks beautiful.

*Some of us are whores like that.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Gilgamesh teaches it now, so there's no point to switching over, especially since you lose Odin's Speed+1 level bonus if you do.

Worse yet is Cactaur's Speed+2 level bonus. By level 60 you can have 80+ speed and basically be in a constant haste effect. Combine with Hastaga, and you're getting four turns to Kefka's one.

As for the Ragnarok, take the esper this time. You can steal the sword from The Lady and now since you can save after beating the game you can keep it, along with the second Atma/Ultima Weapon. Wager that one for the Illumina/Lightbringer.

I haven't tested if you can go through Kefka's tower a second time for more of the sword, which wouldn't be a bad deal, since getting 8 of those bastards would be mighty swank. (4 if you don't want to bother with genji gloving it, but eh')

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
