Now now, Nall always was a bit of a smartass to begin with in the Lunar series; Working Titles just always made it sound more kid friendly. I'm sure Spike can play a perfectly sounding smartass in this one, and he's also playing a villain voice as well. It shows just how much range he actually has. Haven't played BlazBlue yet, hoping to. |

Uh...okay. You seem to be criticizing me for repeating myself here. That seems kind of odd because I've only made one comment. I explained that I don't like FFXII and I didn't like it even with gambits off. If anyone is being redundant it's you. You're repeating that you can turn the gambits off. Yes...That is the very point I was responding too. I understand that you can turn them off. I did that. I still didn't like XII. Sorry but you're going to have to accept that. I don't dislike XII because I 'played it wrong'. Some people just don't agree with you.
I'm actually one of the two people on the internet who hasn't formed an iron clad opinion on FFXIII yet. Hence, this comment which seems to be attempting to ridicule me for liking it is totally pointless. As is any attempt to discredit me as a 'now a days' FF fan. I like V-VII, IX and X. I dislike IV, VIII and XII. Again, deal with it. |

For some reason, I didn't like X that much. I guess I just expected more hoopla at the end of the game instead of some handful of folks singing around a campfire. Or maybe it was that I couldn't get into the character of Tidus that well. Maybe because he came off as kind of a brat. Or maybe because his voice actor was so flipping annoying I wanted to kick him in the squall so he would shut the hell up.
Did that game even have the Japanese option at the time? Huh. Not goin' back to check. For me, XII was just boring. Yeah, war, betrayal, rebellion, yadda yadda. I'm dicking around caves and dungeons having vaguely anything to do with rebelling or warring. I'm traveling along a desert with characters a little more interesting than my street urchin self. I level over five levels just so that I can breeze through the story only to get killed by a high level monster that I could not avoid and I had to restart from six levels back. Hell no. I'll stick with Dragon Age and Persona. Also, sorry to distract, but has anyone noticed how boring games like Fallout 3 eventually become? I mean, it seems like all you do is wander. Through rubble. For hours. Finding nothing. I mean, you don't even risk starving to death. Sure you have to fend off monsters and raiders and it's fun taking off their heads from a distance, but after the zillionth head shot, with the help of that VATS system, it just gets kinda dull. Sure the armor's nice, but what about going out searching for food for starving people, eg. me, on a regular basis? Shouldn't this be a wider concern? Yeah, fresh water's nice, but a proper nutrition should be taken into account as well, right? I'm getting too old for video games, aren't I? |

People who are up in arms over Dudley's voice are very, very stupid. His American voice never sounded like his Japanese voice, because he never had an American voice. Complain once you've heard his Japanese voice.

Oh...okay. I just assumed if you like one JRPG you probably played JRPGs in general at least to some extent. If not then of course that's cool. They're not for everyone. I don't feel the same way as you do though which is why I do generally like them. |

Wait, what? So I hallucinated the English VA in my copies of SF3? I honestly can't figure out what you're trying to say here. |

You could buy Suikoden I off the PlayStation Network store to play on your PSP in the meantime. It's been there for a while now. Maybe someday they'll add II. 
They aren't. This isn't downloadable content. Super Street Fighter IV is a new game. Or rather, it's an updated version of the original game. It's coming out in April.
I'm pretty sure edzieba meant they don't find JRPGs tedious, not that they don't play them.
I believe Shale is trying to say that there is no "American" voice for Dudley because the Japanese recording was in English. There was no re-recording in English for America. Street Fighter IV has dubbed voices available, and it's what they use in the previews. So whatever people are hearing is the English voice. The Japanese voice, speaking English, will likely be different. ...I think that made sense. |

Okay...you're being pretty ridiculous here. Obviously I do not find that tedious in the case of most RPGs. You've taken a statement I obviously made in reference to FFXII specifically and for no reason whatsoever, assumed that I must feel the same way about all RPGs. I can't imagine why you would make such an assumption since as you yourself pointed out...why would I even play RPGs then? I like a lot of RPGs. I don't like FFXII though because I find the battle system, Gambits or not, simple and tedious. I don't know why this is so tough for some people to understand. |

I still don't follow. We've heard both the Japanese and English voices for the new characters in previews, and we've heard Dudley's original English voice for something like 10 years now. Unless you're suggesting that there's going to be a different English VA for the American release? |
