Does anyone know WHY they didn't made it for XBox 360? and please don't tell me it's because the X360 isn't popular in Japan.

I'm just saying...

Either way, it's a pattern, and the closest we'll get to the right guess. If it is, then I'm picking 999 in March, if it isn't, I'm going to blow all my money on the Vita instead.

I did not receive any 'Event' notices on Mowales Village, nor any additional ones after the character events that happen during Czifra Saga Petal Road. I also did not receive any oracle events after; I guess I will have to write this up to a bug or complete the Scarred Mountain events to see if an additional event happens then such as the one that occurred before the end of the First Generation. Thank you for your response and I guess I will have to experiment; I only asked because I wanted to make sure I did not miss it.

According to one of our testers who worked on the game, it's after or around Czifra Saga Petal Road. An event with an oracle will tell you to check out a place down south, and the new quest area will open.

I hope that helps!

....Yes, I know it is a DLC. I am asking where on the map is it. As in on which continent of the Agarest Zero map is it located and when do I get access to it ie. what event has to happen in order for it to appear on my map.

(If you aren't familiar with Siliconera, they generally do playtests, not reviews. They don't give a numbered score, but the written content is essentially equivalent to a review.)

Lancer needs his own spin-off of him dieing/trying to avert his deaths.

Also nice sig, it reminds me that I really need to get to Atelier Rorona now that I've finished XIII-2. ...Or so I'd like to say, but I still have some stuff I need to take care of in XIII-2 and then Graces comes out next month and Xenoblade the month after that

Endless_.Hacker — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 17:09:08 +0000

Amagami SS+ Ep 6 was nice, and it brings an end to Ai's arc. Next up is Kaoru (instead of Sae despite it being in Reverse Order of S1) and then Haruka and then sadly it ends. Personally I LIKE these little re-visits to see how Junichi and the girl he chose are doing as a couple since it helps give there relationship more feeling. Well I like then apart from Rihoko's, but her story related stuff does seem to suffer from Poor Writing. Kinda sad that Miya and Rise don't get any little "continuations" but then I guess it makes sense for Miya since the only way to continue that is for an Incest Route.

I DO wish we could have had it be about Junichi romancing some of the minor girls from S1, even if just to give them there own little time to shine. That and I REALLY like Hibiki and the Tea Club-Senapis.

asrttyoxo on "pp pool problem"

asrttyoxo — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 12:55:34 +0000

I don't think leftover PP ever added to the pool (even starting at level 1). PP was only increased by specific PP-giving events like bosses, titles, etc.

Your characters will keep their own PP leftovers that cannot be added to the pool except starting a new game with Clear status. An example of the leftover...you level up and get 10 points, you increase strength at a cost of 8 points leaving 2 leftover, the points stay with that character so when you level again and get 10 points you now have 12 points to spend.

Is this for Agarest Zero? If so I believe that dungeon is DLC.

Hope is one of the best party members in XIII, he's one of the best Medics and Ravagers in the game, his health will always be the lowest but his high magic easily makes up for it. IIRC the only character who's better at Magic then Hope is Vanille, and that's because she learns Death. It can be kinda tricky to properly get used to him in the early game when everyone is split up, but once you've got a full party he really shines.

There are 3 things in common with these pics.

-There are 3 people in each pic.
-Each one has two members of the NOL.
-Jin and Ragna.

I have been searching for this for about two weeks but cannot find the dungeon in-game. Does it become available after the 'choosing the 2nd Generation' bride or something? I have also searched all over the internet to find the answer.

aznxchunky — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 01:00:10 +0000

Has anyone else gotten this problem? When i level up my (around level 300) my left over pp isn't adding to the pool. my pp pool has been stuck 16 for about 30 something levels now. Only thing that has been adding to my pp pool has been titles.

Based on looks alone I like Saito. I haven't played the game yet, but if he's shy and awkward I'll definitely like him even more. :]

Okita is cute too but he seems like the playboy type (again just basing on looks)

FF8 is my second favorite of the series (FFX being number 1). I have a friend who played only 8 for almost 2 years and still found new things occassionally in the world.

As for poor ff13; I'm firmly in the hater's camp; not because of the story, but because of the stupid difficulty spikes and the fact you were forced to use Hope in your party. I can't remember the name of the area, but there was a point in the game where I had all of my party members' crystarium(sp?) levels MAXED, yet was still getting insta-killed...literally. A battle would start and I was dead. Every. Single. Time.

As for the story, I missed a lot of it because I actually broke a controller in pure white, animal rage after being forced to listen to Hope's endless fsking whining about "Operation Nora" and had to skip any scene he appeared in.

I eventually lent the game to PR James and never looked back.

I'm actually afraid to start FF13-2 for this reason, since they insisted on bringing him back. I think SE has turned into Gainax and is actively engaging in fan abuse at this point...

Hope has matured a lot. He's actually a GOOD driving force of the story, actually being a halfway decent person now. He's not a battle character though, if that makes it any better.

8 is probably the third one I played, but it's definitely my favorite. I just love that game so much. Probably the one FF I restarted from scratch the most was FF8.

13's platinum was extremely easy. the worst part was grinding those traps, but, even then, you only had to grind one monster. Platinum tales of vesperia or cross edge and get back at me (I lead a sad life =( lmao)

FF XIII flame war initiate!!!! only joking. yeah...I dno. I have more patience than the average person (I'm a science nerd), but 13 still pushes me up that wall. Honestly, when those types of graphics become "the norm" in the future, there is nothing in particular that I can imagine sticking with me from 13 to that point in time. Story was meh, characters were meh, voice acting was meh (played english and japanese version--were both meh). I'm not a fan of this team's work, so I'll just leave my gripes at that point. My favorite is FF 8, but that game seems to get even more hate *table flip!!!!*

Were we separated at birth?!

8 is my favorite too, but I'm sure that is partly due to it being my first real Final Fantasy game. (Mystic Quest doesn't count, aside from the music which was awesome)

But yeah, everything in 13 aside from the graphics just felt so sub-par to me. The only character that seemed remotely relatable for me was Sazh. The game really just started feeling like a chore after a while. Also, as far as I'm concerned, none of the music really stood out to me. To this day I can remember all the lyrics for Eyes on Me, and hum the Triple Triad theme, but ask me to try recalling any music from 13...and uhh..I'm drawing a blank.
