I bet that's why all the girls I know like Final Fantasy VIII. The summoning scenes were exceptionally long. They just made my hands numb, to be honest.

Eww, that game was lame.

Some strange crap I found.

God I hate sprite comics.

Final Fantasy fans are the bane of existence. Not my existence, just the existence of everything in general.

Slightly on-topic, 6 was the only one I liked.

Actually, it's the hot guys and the slash possibilities.

I wish I were kidding.

I liked the Junction system alot, but I seem to be in the minority. *shrug* I've always been the weird one.

You know, they made FFX-II to appeal to preteen girls and guys who like cheesecake.

But really, they need a counterpart game where three hot guys play dress-up, run around hugging and touching eachother, and "buddy-bond" with eachother for several hours.

Greatest game EVAR.

Why must every single sprite comic either use Mega Man or Sonic?

Zeta · Post by **Zeta** » Wed Sep 22, 2004 6:20 pm

I don't know. I'm almost offended that there have been no webcomics with altered Mario sprites.

What about 8-Bit theater?

Zeta · Post by **Zeta** » Wed Sep 22, 2004 7:18 pm

What about it? Besides the fact that it's the only good sprite comic ever produced?

I'm not including Secret of Mana Theater - 'cause that's mostly a cartoon that uses sprites. And not including Kid Radd - because all of the sprites are original creations not ripped from pre-existing games, and most of it is animated, too.

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Wed Sep 22, 2004 11:16 pm

Why all of the sprite comics use ripped Mega Man sprites??? That's easy!!!

That's because the first (even before 8-bit Theater... I think) sprite comic ever was Bob and George.

Never heard of it??? Go to http://www.bobandgeorge.com ... yeah, that's the url.

BTW, not ALL sprite comics sucks... at least not 8-bit nor BnG

Baba O'Reily · Post by **Baba O'Reily** » Thu Sep 23, 2004 6:06 am

Bob and George was first, and it used to be funny, but then it just got dry.

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Mon Sep 27, 2004 11:17 am

Well, they've been alive for... I dunno... 5 years already???

I mean, even Penny Arcade has to re-use old jokes... it was obvious BnG was going to use the same running gags OVER and OVER again...

But the main guy, Dave, is a nice fellow, something that is extremelly weird for a guy who practically started the Sprite Comics "industry" ... and somewhat talented of course... mmh... I wonder what would happen if Gibbon and Dave talked???

... HELL... and NEKKID BOOBIES...

aso · Post by **aso** » Mon Sep 27, 2004 3:17 pm

Huh. There's one good sprite comic out there.

.. technically, it's 'fake' sprites. Whichever.

Kid Radd

And, hey, unlike 'Bob & George', '8-Bit Theater', or whatever else, it actually has its own, original story, and an ending. An actual ending. No dragging it out to fill the author's coffers.

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Mon Sep 27, 2004 8:44 pm

You REALLY need to check http://www.fragile-minds.com ... they have several sprite comics...

And back on to the original topic,

Kikizo posted a video of the game in action complete with EXTREME NAKA TOUCHING!

Vegeta's gone to pot since the end of Dragonball.

Why the mosaic effect on the actual DS? Unless they were afraid someone was going to plop a penis there...

IGN reports that this game will come to North America and be a launch title with a new name Feel the Magic: XY-XX

Sega's first Nintendo DS game, previously known as Project Rub and revealed as Kimi no Tame Nara Shineru ("I Would Die for You") is coming to the US as Feel the Magic: XY-XX. And yes, the game is as quirky as the title. Sega recently invited me down to their offices to wrap my hands around this unique collection of challenges. Whether the game is a success remains to be seen, but at the very least, I had a goofy smile on my face nearly the entire time I played the game. That should say something right there.

Feel the Magic: XY-XX follows the game's protagonist: you. You're out to score the affection of a particular beauty, and to really get in with her you'll partner up with a group of celebrity super performers in bunny ears: the Rub Rabbits. To really impress the girl of your dreams, you must partake in a series of absolutely whacked out challenges that will really get her attention.

The game is created in a very cool and unique art style that's reminiscent of the iPod commercials...something that hasn't really been seen in a videogame before. This style puts the DS' 2D and 3D capabilities to use...in many places, those silhouette characters are actually realtime 3D models. The story's told in comicbook fashion, where each panel unfolds to show what's going on in the game.

Wake me when they release "Feel the Magic: XY-XY Version".

You are going have to import that version. ;)

Lucky the DS is region free. =D

Some of the games mentioned in that article are really bizarre (especially the microphone based ones), but it's good to see Sonic Team doing something innovative and new. I just hope the games have some substance and don't end up being simple gimmicks to promote features of the DS hardware.

Although, I'm not too keen on the new name. Kimishine suited the romantic and laid back style of the game, whereas Feel the Magic : XY-XX sounds a bit too scientific.

Mmm... Sexay.

Still not too keen on the new title though. "I Would "Dye" For You" would have been an awesome name=D

Get it? "Dye"! Because of all the colors! Funny, right?!**shot**

Mmmh... still, I don't think those pizza-faced workers at Wal Marts, Toys r' Us and stuff are going to look at you with respect after discovering you're old, with beard, and still playing videogames with nearly-nekkid chicks.

I mean, after the nude patches for DOA for X-Box, must of my necesity to play such things dissapeared.

And then reapered with Eiken... STUPID EIKEN!!!
