I really should keep these things to myself, but never mind, eh...

Just out of interest.. did you just make that up?? :p heh... by that logic, I am Lucda Mousto... that is one odd name...

I didn't think you were still in education... you're about a month younger than me, but I thought you were a few years older.. Don't take that as offensive, you just seem really intelligent for someone our age... ;)

I have until friday.. then I'm off uni for 4 months (I think).. but I'll probably still be on, I think the place is still open...

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Sephiroth [/i] [B]you should try playing deus ex on this thing....*starts drooling* [/B][/QUOTE] *Shakes uncontrollably*.... NOOOOOO!!!!!!! You can barely play [i]Pong[/i] on this thing...lol....

Gargh!!!!!!! ANd here I am, using the PCs at uni, with their oh-so-powerful 244 MHz and... I don't know how much memory... Careful Seph, if you stay on at the same time as me for too long this PC's slowness may corrupt your little 'sushi'... :p

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by roxieortatiana [/i] [B] actually, when you do throw up, the acid eat away at your teeth, BUT since people don't NORMALLY throw up all the time, it doesn't do any real serious harm. if you are bulimic, though, or take pills, and throw up everyday, it does do a lot of damage, and if you keep it up for a while, your teeth WILL rot. [/B][/QUOTE] Yeah, but that's just a natural reaction of acid to alkali (the alkali being the Calcium in teeth) and as you said, it only does harm over a long period of time, if you throw up all the time. What I meant was 'if the acid's that strong, why doesn't it burn through your mouth if you throw up just once'.. because that's what people here seem to think can happen in the stomach...

I'd get confused by the fact that one one hand, there's enough space for an oak tree, and on the other hand, there's only enough space for one carrot...

Personally, I don't know if a level up system would actually work on a DMC game. Most games where levelling up is involved are turn-based, to be honest, I can't say I've ever come across a game that's not turn based, where characters level up with experience, except maybe Deus Ex. I think a skill points system, like that in Deus Ex, would be more suitable, whereby doing certain things earns skill points, and these can be spent on enhancing your own abilities, like increasing the amount of time in Devil Trigger mode, or increasing strength, speed etc. Also, like in Deus Ex, these should be given at cerain points in the game, not by killing enemies, as otherwise some players would spend hours just earning skill points, and not actually progressing through the game.

well... when I said 'next week'.. that was a while ago, it's already out, and I can confirm that Anthology [i]is[/i] FF4 and FF5 in the UK, cos I bought it on Friday and that's what was on it :).. The price is £19.99

Snap.... o.O heh... nah... I say monopoly. Although whenever me and my brother play we end up coming to a mutual agreement that we both need more money...... If only it were that easy in real life....

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Ravenstorture [/i] [B]I, too, believe in everything. Perhaps I read too much Douglas Adams (RIP), but I am very open minded. It is easy to see how some things could be false accusations, however. Let people believe whatever they want to believe, just don't kill people for not sharing your veiws. Like lost of people do... (in my part of the street, anyway...) [/B][/QUOTE] You can NEVER read too much Douglas Adams ;)

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by ShadowGohan [/i] [B][SIZE=1]I haven't heard anything about the A.I of the enemies or bosses, but from what CWB is saying, I'm guessing that the bosses aren't that hard (?). If they aren't very hard, the A.I and weaponry of the bosses should be increased. That would make the boss's hard(er) to beat, which (when you beat them), would really make you jump up and down with delight ^^..[/SIZE] [/B][/QUOTE] I think the bosses are quite hard on Dante must Die mode, but they're still a bit too predictable... I think maybe a few twists within the AI system may help more than improving the AI combat system.. think of MGS2 AI style enemies, which, for example, become afraid when you activate devil trigger, or, add a system where if you kill alot of enemies in a particular group, the rest are more cautious, and maybe the odd one which decides to jump at you. In DMC, the enemies of any particular type all acted the same. Maybe a bit of variation could help..

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Paul [/i] [B]can anyone tell me where on inal Fantasy VIII can i find a weapon for Zell? ive looked everywhere up until the bit i am on (which is the bit after the ship lands in the water where rinoa wants a tour of garden) i really want to give zell a weapon because he is basically rubbish with just his fists. and can anyone tell me what the hell is the point of Angelo he dosn't do anything. [/B][/QUOTE] There should be plenty of places w here you can give Zell a weapon, anywhere that you can give other people weapons, in fact. However, you do usually need a few items to get them. Also, all of Zel's weapons involve him using his fists, so there's no way out of that. Angelo does do the odd attack now and then, but it's pretty much random, and you have to teach him to do things ..

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Cruizr [/i] [B]Now, Spontaneous Human Combustion, that I really do think happens. People would be found where they last were, only a few body parts remaining and the rest completely gone...No fire can completely destroy bone. Except for the humans own body. Me? I blame it on stomach acid escaping...It is the only conclusion I can come up with that makes sense to me... [/B][/QUOTE] Nah... stomach acid burns, but the burning is due to a chemical reaction, it doesn't actually produce a flame, and even if it did, it wouldn't produce enough of a flame to completely burn through all the person's body and bones. [quote][i]Posted by Spikey[/i] I think there might be a such thing as the Locc Noss Monster. But Bif Foot is to far. [/quote] Considering that Big Foot is supposed to be human-like, and that human's predecessors apparently died out long after the extinction of the dinosaurs (Which is what the Loch Ness monster is [i]most likely[/i] to be, though not necessaily) I'd say there's a greater possibility that 'Big Feet' (Do you really think there'd be just one?) exist, than the loch ness monster. [quote] [i]Posted by roxieortatiana[/i] Well, as Cruizr said, it could have something to do with stomach acid. the acidity level of Stomach acid(hydrochloric acid[yes, i took that from my science notes, hehe...]) is 1.1. something neutral is 7. anything below seven in an acid, and anything above it is a base. I don't know about Hydrochloric acid, but I DO know that Sulfuric acid is VERY POWERFUL, and can eat away someone's skin(i'm NOT kidding! If you want to PM me, I can give you a story on that). Sulfuric acid has an acidity of 1.2 ok, so it's ONE TENTH less acid than hydrochloric, but that's still pretty close, which would mean that hydrochlotric acid would eat away at the skin(infact, it would be stronger than sulfuric acid). [/quote] OK... Hydrochloric acid has a pH of 1.1... now.. if I remember my chemistry... pH is 14 - log [H+].. meaning that for every decrease of pH by 1, the solution has 10 times as many hydrogen ions.. hydrogen ions are what makes acid acidic. So.. a 0.1 inrease means it'll be roughly doubled. There's no such thing as 'a tenth less acid'.. because acidity is not a measure, it is a property of solutions with a high Hydrogen ion concentration. Now.... yes... sulfuric acid can melt your skin, but it does not set fire to it. The principle behind SHM is that the human body just sets alight. Acid can't do that. Well, maybe it can, but you'd probably need a pH at or below zero, and some pretty flammable stuff in your body. Secondly... If the acid is that strong when you throw up, why doesn't it burn your mouth? Maybe it's diluted, I'm not sure on that one, but anyway, I don't think acid is what causes it, [i]if[/i] it happens. Because there's a difference between an acid burn and a burn from a flame.

Firstly, no infinite wishes. To have infinite wishes, I must have infinite time, and to have infinite time, I can't die, therefore I'd get to a point whee I was really, really bored. ;) I'd wish for absolute knowledge. :) Or maybe a monkey...

I just checked the HMV UK website, doing my little check on what anime DVDs are in stock (bear in mind if you try this yourself, HMV classes it as 'manga', not anime.. search for anime and you get cartoons), and I stumbled across this.. [quote] DVD Neon Genesis Evangelion Death & Rebirth Dubbed Japanese Japanese Animated Film - Release date 30-09-2002 DVD £19.99 [/quote] Does america already have this? If so is it any good, in your opinion? If not, I'll probably get it anyway. September is long away enough for me to get all the NGE tapes :). PLUS: If it is out in America, does it have the optional dub or subtitle?? Because I know Ghost in the Shell does, and a few other DVDs I have yet to get... Oh and by the way, to our non-UK buddies... the date 30-09-2002 may seem odd, but that's because over here in the UK we write our dates as 'day-month-year', not 'month-day-year'.. there ya go, you learn something new everyday ;)

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Sephiroth [/i] [B]actually, the US version of anthology had 5 and 6.... [/B][/QUOTE] Yeah, that's what I meant.. that post may have been confusing, but this is what I actualy meant to say... 1- The US version had FF 5 and 6, but we never got it 2- FF6 was released as a single game (but with a FF10 demo) a few months ago in the UK. 3- The [i]UK[/i] version of FF Anthology has FF4 and FF5, and is going to be released.... tomorrow! It's available to buy at the GAME website now, the new link is [url]http://www.game.uk.com/review.asp?tab=ps&rev_id=145955[/url] . 4- on a different note, FF10 is released next friday!!! Three FF games in two weeks! How lucky are we :D ... [quote]Its out on friday the 17th of May for only a Tenner how good is that? Two games for a tenner!Two------[/quote] Actually FF Anthology is £20, but FF6 is £10.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by *-- RagnaroK--* [/i] [B] Are you absolutely positively sure that there is no final fantasy 6 on anthology. It makes no difference to me, since i need 4 for my collection anyway! hah hah haaaah!!! :D :D :D [/B][/QUOTE] yep, cos 6 was released as a seperate game over here, a couple of months ago, so it wouldn't make sense to release it 2 months later with an extra game. We never got anthology when the US did, so it's recent to us. Though it depends where you are.. this is only in the UK, the US version [i]does[/i] have 4 and 6, but the UK has 4 and 5. It may also be released in other PAL countries, if they don't have it already.

Well, according to the game website, it is coming out on Friday, and it's FF4 and FF5, [url=http://www.game.uk.com/review.asp?tab=ps&rev_id=145954]look[/url].. at least something is coming out next week... Deus Ex has been pushed even further back, into June...

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Crazy White Boy [/i] [B]Wow, Final Fantasy Anthology was released a long time ago in the U.S. (late 1999, I think). For us, it was FFV and FFVI. Unless they released FFVI on its own in the U.K., I can't see it being called an anthology. An anthology often refers to a collection, thus one game can't be a collection. There must be a mistake on your receipt. [/B][/QUOTE] Yeah, FF6 was released a couple of months ago ith a demo of FFX (still waiting for that too).. I think they were expecting anthology, but just got FF6. The game sold a lot just for the demo, though (At least, where I live), So the stores wouldn't let you buy it unless you intended playing FF6... Again, this is just where I live, not necessarily everywhere in the country.

I just checked at GAME's website on the release date of FFX, (in the UK) and found out that FF Anthology (FF4 an FF5) is coming out next week!! Which is quite odd, consiering that FF6 was supposed to be 'Final Fantasy Anthology'... or at least, it says that on my reciept..

I ten to just like whatever I, uhhh... like.... no real specific preference.... though I hate 'manufactured pop bands'.... they are the devil.. By the way... this should really be in the TV / Movies / Music subforum...
