Plot as of March 31, 2011

[Cindy Aurum]

I'm shocked, I actually remembered my login info for this. But good, I think? Not sure if that's a good thing or not. Either way, congrats on getting a 360 J. I'd give my gamertag to you also but right now it's locked down. If I get it reinstated, then I'll be more than happy for you to add me if you like.

Out or curiousity, what games did you pick up for it? Do you like games like Skyrim? I really hope you're not another modern warfare drone.... but still, I can appreciate the graphics at least. But I think you'd be more prone to liking Deus Ex (which was also a pretty freakin' awesome game) A bit short, but still worthy of a rental price (if you have gamefly) or maybe the price for a used copy possibly over at gamestop or where ever you get your games from. Not sure how expensive it is now and days since it's been out for quite some time. Hell, it might be in the lower 20's.

Anyways, just a few sugesstions. I'm sure Joe would be able to give a better, more detailed list of male worthy games.

[Aeris Gainsborough]

Phew! I am *SO GLAD* I didn't win that 360 that I was planning on getting for you! O.O Like, serious business. It would have been awful to send you that surprise knowing now that you already have it!

I'll have to re-activate my Xbox Live, as I cannot remember it right now. lol Knowing me, it's wizardmon599, but I can't be sure...

TIFA, let's get to work on this. And by this, I mean the orgy. Maybe. Are we having this shindig at the 7th Heaven, or perhaps somewhere more remote?

[Reno]

Let's see the Xbox came with Fable III (I played the demo of it and it sucked balls but I heard it gets better) and HAAAALLLLLOOOO REEEEAAAACCCCHHH!!!!! *punches disc into powder and snorts it*

Anyways yes I am a complete Modern Warfare drone. I FUCKING LOVE THAT SHIT! AW YEAH IT'S SO AWESOME! YES! YES! YES! YES!

Actually no, I don't have it. Since all the guys at work play it though I'll probably pick it up eventually. Along with Gears 3 since I know some people that play that too.

As for what else I have let's see.....Assassin's Creed 1, The Orange Box(in case you don't know that's Half-Life 2, HL2: Ep1 and 2, Portal, and Team Fortress 2 all bundled together.), Arkham Asylum, Sonic Generations, Bioshock, Fallout 3, Mass Effect, and Devil May Cry 4. I've beaten Arkham Asylum, Sonic, and Portal and have played a couple hours of HL2 but really haven't give much of the other stuff a go. Well, I have beaten DMC4 before but that was playing it at a friend's house since somebody got me the game months ago thinking I had a 360 at the time but I didn't...>.>

Anyways, for the orgy I propose we go to Mt. Nibel, capture one of those dragons that show up there and fuck on top of it. Then I can nut in it's eye or some bullshit.

[Sephiroth]

Modern Warfare 3 is a decent game. Fun factor isn't as high as Modern Warfare 2 though, in regards to multiplayer. Spec Ops mode is decent though. Let me know if you get it. Fable III is decent, but its not as good as Fable II, which conversely wasn't as good as Fable 1 (IMO). I also have Reach, but I don't play it because I never liked Halo's multiplayer. I don't mind doing some co-op campaign though if you feel like it. I never liked the Gears series, but my roommate has it, it looks pretty good if you're into it.

Assassin's Creed 1 is awesome, probably my favorite in terms of story and setting. Orange Box is great overall package if you like what it has to offer. I played Mass Effect and Fallout 3 on PC though, so I can't comment on the console experience and how it may or may not differ, but they are AWESOME games (especially Mass Effect, definitely recommend playing both 1 and 2 when you get the chance). I won't comment on the games you already beat.

Either way, its a really good collection to start off with.

[Tifa Lockhart]

I think there is enough abuse of dragons in Skyrim that will do me a lifetime....but anyways. Besides the point of the main objective of having to kill the poor things and asorb their souls, I guess it's an okay game -.-' I honestly thought you could befriend them. Why, I have no idea. I'd rather befriend them than suck out their lifeforce just to make myself be able to learn shouts. But I guess to each their own.

Sorry, what Jake said kinda threw me off on a dragon rant. But as far as where it should be? Well I'm guessing we could all be in different places on the world map and eventually all show up in the same general area. (either planned or not) Non-planned would be kinda fun, depending on just how Aerith & Tifa will co-exist. Especially if Cloud decides to be a whore and really flaunt his uh... well, I wouldn't say 'manly' attritibutes but ... haha, uh yeah, I shouldn't go there. (cuz we all know how bishie all the VII men can be) Honestly, I think i'd be scared to become a part of an orgy simply from the fact of actually knowing if some of those guys sexuality actually were ever revealed. Especially Cloud, Seph, Vincent, Genesis, Zack.... poor poor Cid. And sadly, yes....even Reno. Although, a surprise to me, there tends to be a lot more pro Tseng/Reno stories out there than Reno/Rude -shudders- Okay, I need to go wash my brain after that mental image -.-

But, yeah... anyways. Whatever I guess. I'm not overly picky at this point. Just need something to sate my time. Need to stop watching so many MA Funimation things. The latest was something called Shuffle. But by far, I'd have to say my favorite adult anime I've found on Netflix is Girls Bravo. A really cute, and very funny anime. What started it all was I finally sat down and watched Fruits Basket (which I freaking ADORE) But then I accidently clicked on Sekirei (was another great one) and well, oddly enough my very first adult anime I've ever watched. Now it's kinda like crack for me o.O I want to watch goofy comical adult animes -.- damn the 360 and Netflix's small pool of good selections... but why am I still typing.


Must


stop.

[Sephiroth]

Skyrim is great stuff. I enjoy using my Imperial warrior decked out in Deadric armor straight BEASTING with my Deadric greatsword, turning cities into ghost towns and generally ridding Skyrim of population. Great stuff. That, and sniping dragons mid flight with my Nightingale bow for a kill. Good times.

On a lighter note, I never liked Girls Bravo. Too much fan service, not enough plot. Its not an adult anime in the traditional sense (traditional meaning a Seinen anime, like Ghost in the Shell, Jiraishin, or the Kerberos Saga), but rather just a shonen anime with alot of fan service (what me and my friends like to call a "kids show with tits"). Nowadays fan service like that is increasingly becoming a norm to the point where nobody considers it "adult" just because it shows some skin and cleavage, even though it has to be rated as adult material for that reason. Sekirei is the same thing, pretty much (although I do still read the manga version, I never could get into the anime's obsession with fan service over story, although the manga is, honestly, not that much better in that regard). They also changed the plot a bit from the manga version and rearranged the order of certain events (understandable given the timetable for both the manga and anime. Plus, thats becoming a norm nowadays as well), but thats just me being nitpicky. Fruits Basket = BLAAAARRRRRG. Haven't seen Shuffle though, so I'll reserve judgment on that one.

[Tifa Lockhart]

I guess I like them because they are so light hearted. The only animes I liked that were down right serious were FMA Brotherhood and Hellsing. Both of which I still hold in the highest regards. I suppose I just need something to make me laugh considering all the bullshit my life is going through at the moment. But I do agree, Girls Bravo does have a lot of bounching boobs when it really didn't need them. But the characters, as airheadish as they may be, for whatever reason, sparked something inside me and had me laughing through most of the plotline. Oh! I almost forgot, School Rumble was another one. Haha, I guess you really don't like Fruits Basket huh? Awh =( but but but... it's so darn cute! You can't deny the cute factor once they are hugged and they transform into the dog, the rat, and the cat can you? Well. maybe you can.....

Ghost in the Shell you say? Not my thing. Never have been big on any sort of space animes. Tried, never could give it a go. Maybe if I find something that isn't geared towards my laughbox, I'll give it a go. But for right now, the only serious anime I really like that's on the watch instantly crap is Devil May Cry. And even then, I've seen all of those several times over. So you see there really isn't a whole lot you can work with. Not when it comes to Netflix. But I've managed to find a few things that I think have been alright with some of the ones I've chosen to watch. Others, not so much =/ There was one... lol I don't even know the name of it. I started watching it and not even three minutes in I had to turn it off. Something about school classes that have to battle for their equipment using 'battle avatars'

Just no.....


Reminded way way WAY too much of pokemon. (nothing wrong with that concept except that they were smaller verions of themselves and not even pocket monsters) It was odd......


I suppose the main reason behind me going in search of watching this all in the first place is from mid-season breaks on everything I've become acoustom to watching. Sons of Anarchy (yeah, gotta get my redneck on haha) , Thundercats 2011 (which I managed to get Travis watching also) & even The Vampire Diaries (uh... well? It has Ian in it dammit!). -.- Ah well. It can't be helped.

[Sephiroth]

lol, battle avatars for classroom equipment? Sounds like Baka to Test.

I don't really use Netflix for anime, mostly stick to my PC for that. By the time most anime make it to Netflix I've either already seen it or never had much interest in seeing it in the first place. As for my current anime fix:

-Carnival Phantasm (funniest anime I've seen in a while)
-Fate/Zero (Z. Archer and Z. Berserker are BOSS AS FUCK. Z. Rider is cool too)
-Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn (I'm also watching most of the UC Gundams in the interim period, including 0079, MS IGLOO 1 and 2, Zeta Gundam, Gundam ZZ, Char's Counterattack, F91, and Victory Gundam. If I'm up to it I may also rewatch 0080, 0083, and 8th MS Team even though I saw them fairly recently).
-Shakugan no Shana III (not that great so far, but at least it'll conclude the series at last)
-The Idolm@ster (.......)

[Reno]

Anime? Lol does watching various abridged series count as anime?

Seriously, the only anime that I can watch now that I think is any good is Cowboy Bebop. Anything they showed on Toonami I can watch too but purely for nostalgia reasons. Devil May Cry was boring but had a pretty rockin' soundtrack I must say. Hellsing had two good things: The intro and Jan Valentine. Jan is my fucking hero. I strive to be just like that guy every single day. I actually did watch all of one minute of Thundercats. Then I heard Lion-O speak and I was like, "Holy shit that's Terry McGinnis!" So I went and watched Batman Beyond instead. I've never even heard of all the other stuff you guys mentioned. Just my two cents.

[Aeris Gainsborough]

Three Words: Detroit. Metal. City.

It's completely sexual, absurd, and so vulgar you can hear the word 'fuck' in every sentence. But I find it so ridiculously hilarious and intense that I believe I would definitely be a slave for Krauser-san. I love him. I just...love him.
His counterpart can explode.
But Krauser-san... *sigh*

So, we are continuing on our ways, then? If so, I'll pick back up with Aeris as soon as I get home from work tomorrow. As for Vin, he would ditch as soon as I get back.... >.>

[Sephiroth]

@tif: Before we close out the topic of anime. Just checked out the Netflix lineup for anime, here are my personal recommendations based on whats there. Up to you to decide if they're worth watching or your kind of anime:

-Macross Plus (really only recommend if you like Macross, and by Macross, I don't mean the ripoff called Robotech: The Macross Saga, but rather the ACTUAL Macross series as it aired in Japan. If you like giant robots/planes and love triangles, it might also be worht a watch even if you don't like Macross)
-Excel Saga (pure comedy craziness)
-Highschool of the Dead (lots of tits, lots of zombies, and lots of drama. Great characters, great action, great fanservice, and great animation. Can't see any reason why anybody wouldn't watch this, Unless they really hate zombies or anything zombie related. You can kinda think of this as the animated version of "The Walking Dead")
-Samurai Champloo (a samurai show with some good comedy and alot of hip-hop themes)
-FLCL (pure comedy crazy, and alot of breaking the 4th wall)
-Full Metal Panic (another show about giant robots. Its very reminiscent of Gundam, although not nearly as serious. If you're gonna watch it, make sure to pick up the comedy spinoff Fumoffu as well as the the sequel "The Second Raid")
-Clannad (very highly recommended, especially if you like dramas. make sure to pick up the sequel Clannad After Story if you watch it, thats where it REALLY gets good)
-Vandread (another show about giant robots. Probably even more kiddy and cheesy than FMP)
-Initial D (Its a show about racing cars. If you watch it, make sure to get all the way up to 4th stage. the third and fourth seasons are where it gets good)
-Trinity Blood (show about vampires and vampire hunters and doomsday plots. Not anywhere near as good as others in the genre like Hellsing or Vampire Hunter D, but its a decent watch)
-Samurai 7 (a decent anime retelling of Akira Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai" with some slightly more futuristic and over-the-top themes)
-Basilisk: Kouga Ninpou Chou (very bloody and very dark ninja drama with lots of bloodshed. If you liked Ninja Scroll, you'll probably like this)
-Spice and Wolf (somewhat lighthearted drama about a guy traveling with a demon(?) wolf in human form. make sure to hunt down season 2 if you watch it)
-Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom (dark drama about a guy who lost his memory and was turned into a master assassin, and his quest to regain his identity and freedom)
-Ah! My Goddess (lighthearted anime about a guy who gets to live with a goddess because of a thoughtless wish. very lighthearted lovey-dovey stuff.)
-Golgo 13 (anime about a hardcore pro assassin. nuff said)
-Casshern SINS (story about an invincible robot who everybody wants to kill and his quest to find someone called Luna and regain his memory)
-Trigun (you've probably seen it, but just in case I'll list it anyway)
-Halo Legends (only watch it if you like Halo)
-Gurren Lagann (GIGA!!!!! DRILL!!!!!!!!! BREAKERRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
-Darker than Black (not as dark as the title claims, although it does have alot of death. action/conspiracy anime)
-Desert Punk (this is probably the closest thing I've seen to a Fallout anime)
-Karas (typical Tatsunoko. Its super-over the top demon slaying action with alot of talking in between. but the fight scenes are worth it. Pick up both The Prophecy and Revelation for the full experience)
-Kurogane no Linebarrels (listed as Linebarrels of Iron on Netflix, but I know it better by its Japanese title. another giant robot anime, and that should say enough)
-Blue Gender (post apocalyptic action drama about humanity trying to survive against bugs. might have seen this if you watched Cartoon Network in the Toonami days)
-Kuroshitsuji (listed as Black Butler in Netfix. probably the best way to describe it would be Sherlock Holmes with demons)
-Tears to Tiara (very straightforward fantasy action drama. Not remarkably good, but not bad either)

@reno
Cowboy Bebop was great. Still one of my all time favs. The DMC anime was kinda meh, like you say, but I have always liked DMC's music, from the anime and the games. Especially DMC3. Vergil 2 and 3 and Arkham Battle are probably the best DMC BGMs ever. As for Hellsing, it wasn't bad, but Hellsing Ultimate puts it to shame by a long shot. I did like Batman Beyond though...

[Tifa Lockhart]

Holy Hell o.o..... I think my eyes just glazed ove a bit. But uhh, if I can remember everything I'll try and include it on one post. First off, thank you so much for breaking down the list in having an explanation on each one of those. That really means a lot to me =)


But okay, where to start... oh yeah, I did watch Trigun. As well as Ah! My Goddess a long ass time ago. Feels like ages. Both were decent, but to me could never compare to series I loved like FMA, Hellsing, & Black Butler. Pretty much anything that deals in the unknown world of demons and angels have been a sudden intrests where use to, all it was pretty much was goofy childish things like Salior Moon and Pokemon. I just can't wrap my head around those anymore. Why, I have no idea because I use to watch them religiously. Now however, it's a totally different feeling. Odd?

What else... oh Cowboy Bebop <3 I still own that movie. Love Spike and Ed and Val =D gah, but okay I'll attempt to go back to the subject at hand here and hush up about anime.....for now


But first.....


mini rant that's been building.....


:::: SPOILER ALERT TO THOSE PLAYING OR INTEND TO PLAY XIII-2 ::::






WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY MAKING ANOTHER FUCKING FINAL FANTASY XIII WITH LIGHTNING AND EVERYONE ELSE IN IT!!!!!!? Sorry fucking GAH!!!!! I wanted to rip my fucking hair out when I saw the ending a lil while ago...true someone stated that it's simply "one" of the endings you can get from playing XIII-2 but seriously!? TBC? SERIOUSLY!!!!!! When the FUCK IS VERSUS COMING OUT SQUARE!?!?!? HUH!?



Okay...... I'm good..... no not really. I'm still really pissed off. I wasn't all that giddy when they had another part to XIII in the first place. But the fact of a part 3? Jesus Joeseph Mary!!!! Enough already!!!!!!




::::: END SPOILER ::::::::






Oh and about Christmas RP, uh.... let me know when to start. I haven't even come up with my introduction post, but I'm sure it may be easier to write just so long as we forget a few major issues like Aerith actually being "dead" and uh... other things. Lots of other things. AU Christmas where everyone is alive? Sounds better.... at least it'd be more upbeat and happy. Idk though, ghosts of the lifestream rockin' out bringing in the new years does sound a bit original..... haha, yeah shutting up now >.>

[Vincent]

Sorry for the disappearance there. It’s great to see everyone here.

First off, happy (massively belated) birthday to Mariah! Did I miss the spankings?

A chilled out holiday-party style RP would be awesome, especially as I’m guessing a lot of people would be hesitant to jump straight back into a serious plot. Besides, the holidays are a time to relax a little, so that’s cool. Anyone got any amazing ideas for it?

Oh, Seph, I forwarded you the e-mail; it’s pretty basic so feel free to change it or rewrite it if you like.

[Reno]

@seph
When I was talking about Hellsing I meant Ultimate included. Oh yeah Trigun was cool too. Kinda retarded in some points but still cool. Samurai Champloo was okay. It had a kickass intro though.

Tifa Lockhart
The fact that Square would possibly make another sequel to the shit fest that is FFXIII really surprises you? And why are you saying enough already about that game? You should be saying it to VII(although I will say cut it out with XIII shit too). Every single continuation that Square has made to VII has made me hate it more and more. It gets to the point where I can't even play it anymore. In fact the only FF I can still play is IX. Idk why but I love that game. Square is gay and has been for quite some time and I hate their games because they are too gay and stupid. Lol yeah I know sound like a childish asshole btw. This is what happens when I post right after I get off work.

Btw Versus will come out when Nomura stops jackin' his micropenis off to his various pictures of Kairi hentai scattered all around his room made entirely of zippers and belts.

@vin
If you missed the spankings then don't feel bad. I didn't get to spank anybody either.

[Sephiroth]

The stuff about FFVII is true. They need to stop. What they need to do is remake FFVII on PS3 or 4 like they originally teased and be done with it. As for whether that wish will ever come true...well, the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII is officially an active project until January 31, 2017, so we'll see what happens. For now, I'll stick to the older FF's. I recently replayed IV, and right now I'm replaying VI.
