I feel guilty. My main fighters right now are Ramza, Beowulf, Construct 8, Orlandeau, and Balthier. How cheap am I? haha..

The Colbert Report is hella popular in Ontario. I saw his show a couple times that week. Even though it's just another goofball stunt of his, it's what makes the Repor' so awesome! He gets the audience involved. Like with his youtube video edit competitions, or Wrist Awareness bracelets.

I used to do a caesar with hair flipped up in the front, but I changed it recently to quazi-caesar, with blonde highlights, and really short bangs, making it easier to keep the front of my hair flipped or when it grows a bit, gives it nice hanging space.

I never bother with youtube except to watch tv clips and that. I had no idea shit like this happens. It's like something out of fiction.

My first thought was this---

Dumbledore, bed-ridden by the wizalope flu, splutters a moment before turning his half-conscious eyes toward Harry Potter. His voice ragged from hours of demanding coughing and vomit aplenty. Reaching with a whithered hand, he wheezes, "Grab my wand, Harry. Just once before I die..."
Befuddled at seeing his mentor in such a decaying state, Harry searched hurriedly about, only to give up. "Where did you leave it, Professor?"
"Here, Potter. It's here in my pocket." Another of his wrinkled hands held wide his robe pocket, the depth of which masked by a shadow. Harry eagerly reached for it. After a moment of blind questing, his fingers wrapped around a warm rod.
"It's stuck," Harry announced, tugging fruitlessly.
"Gentle, Harry... You may rip my robes--- That's the way."

(BTW I'm a Potterfan too)

How the hell do you get Balthier? I've looked at various walkthroughs and all say different cities to find the rumour "Rash of thieves". Yet, none of these cities mentioned show it. I'm in Chapter 4 and have Beowulf, Reis (dragon), and Construct 8. Does the rumour only appear at the very beginning of Chapter 4? Do I have to effing start over and start cursing Square-Enix's bastard names?

EDIT: Disregard. Apparently you have to finish at Zeltennia before this rumour appears. -_- fuck that could have been easier to find (took like 30 minutes to find).

I just got Luso. I hate how they give you awesome characters when your basic units are master job classes. -sigh- Guess I'll wait for Beowulf and Balthier to level Luso.

I might give this a whirl, if/when it's translated. I could finally make The Incredible Quest: The Quest of Dude II.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I'd be so pleased for a NEW Tactics game! I've played FFT to death, and am now playing it to death on PSP-----Don't make FFT the new FF1&2, Square-Enix!!! Give us something new instead of rehashing old shit! GOD DAMN!
I mean, yeah it's not a comfirmation-- but it would just suck ASS to play FFT AGAIN with beefier graphics. That would truly mark the final gayness to the FF franchise. I'm tired of FF1and2. They pumped that bitch out like three times. If they do it to FFT as well... holy fuck!
I wouldn't even care if was the exact same system--I just want a fresh story/map to play. GEEZUS.

Last time I beat this game I used Beowulf to chicken the end bosses demons, and then toyed with the bastard. Might try it again. Anyone know if they added game+? Not that it would make sense story-wise, but it'd be nice to just wander and level. (All the characters join at the effing end of the game! )

edit- I've always shook my head at the success rate statements. Mustadio, for example, does Shot Arm. On one dude the chance is 40%, and on another it's 77%... Well, I'll nail the 77% naturally!--MISS! DODGE!

My packing list is:
Pillow, sleeping bag, PS3 and accessories, and a car if I can manage. Hmm... I wonder if JFB would go... He's got wheels. Hmmmm....

Meh, whatever, I'll probably have to call in sick at work to go regardless, so keep me posted if the date changes.

Yeah, an easy way to level is just get a goblin trapped in a corner with low HP and stand aside to attack/heal each other. Using Focus, Shout and other such stat-raise/lowering abilities can make a simple battle last hours--by the end you'll have hundreds of JP, which is freakin' handy.

BTW- slow down isn't that terrible. I noticed it, and shrugged, because I'm not even sure if it's that much slower than the PSX version. If it is, it doesn't affect the enjoyability of the game AT ALL.
So far, I only have one complaint. Blizzara was BLOCKED by a knight. I don't ever recall having magic blocked in the PSX ver. Was this a fluke? Or did they add it in, so it is akin to FFTA's magic missing...?

The re-wrote script isn't that fantastic, but it's fluent with the style of FF12 speaking crossed with old British words. o_O
What else...
Oh, Ramza (Slayman) and my fellow squire (Muscle Man) are both quite close to obtaining Onion Knight.
I looked at a chart thingy on gamefaqs.com about the new job classes, and Fell Knight looks insane to obtain! Worse than Mime! Onion Knight is hella easy though. O_o probably sucks. We'll see!
