very cruel sense of humor. Despite the growing popularity of Final Fantasy the world over, Square has been hesitant to bring ever Fantasy over to America. It took sixteen years but the interminable wait finally ended late last year. People were finally able to play Final Fantasy III.
Was it worth the wait? Probably not. FFIII first came out on the Japanese NES – the Famicom – when RPGs had simple stories and rudimentary graphics. Since that time, RPGs have ballooned to have the same budget as summer movie blockbusters, with graphics that were the envy of everything else and a score that would make Mozart weep.

Is it possible for a first date to go any worse? After waiting in line for an hour and plopping down a cool $60 to be one of the first to get my hands on the megahit of 2008, I feel obliged to try all this massive game has to offer. So I went on a real date with the very fictional Michelle. I even bought a nice pair of jeans beforehand to make a good impression, American girls seem to put a lot of importance on clothes for some reason. Tight pants was the last of my problems when it was all over, though.
