Is this really the final fantasy?
Jun. 27th, 2004 06:13 pmToday, I went with my mom to a party with my mom, which was thrown by the people she works for. It was okay. Not that exciting or anything.
There seems to be a definite trend of re-releasing classic video games these days, often with several different ones on one disc. I kind of hope they come out with some kind of collection of Dragon Warrior games. I know they already came out with a Game Boy release of the first two on one cartridge, but I'd really like to be able to play Dragon Warrior V and VI, which never came out in the States. I guess they're not popular enough here. I believe it's the most popular role-playing game series in Japan, but here, I think a lot more people are into Final Fantasy. Final Fantasy is kind of an "I was into it before it was popular" thing for me. I got the first game in the series for my thirteenth birthday, and now the more recent games are big with people who were just little kids back then. Besides, I get the idea that the later games are too modern and non-traditional for my tastes, not to mention that they're for video game systems I don't have. I played part of Final Fantasy VII and IX (as well as Dragon Warrior VII) on my brother's PlayStation, but I'd prefer to play them on, say, Beth's GameCube (if she'd let me, that is). I might check out Crystal Chronicles at some point, I guess.
Speaking of video games, I want a Game Boy Advance SP. I wish I could afford one.
The Best Buy website will let you listen to clips of all the songs from The Spine, the upcoming They Might Be Giants album. I guess I can't tell for sure from those clips, but it sounds like it's going to be a really good album.
