Skies > FFVII, because mediocrity > crap.

 

[poppin fresh]

Diablo>SoA

 

[demi]

[Ash Sparrow]

You know just because you have a Piratey avatar doesn't mean I'm going to agree with you.

:lol I also have a peg leg and an eye patch

 

[rod]

[Vark]

**** you wario

Demi, you either get to rag on Tim or rag on SOA. But you only get ONE.

choose wisely.

 

[HyperZone<3]

Why haven't I posted in this thread, and I wholeheartedly agree with its thesis statement?

Much better, way better, quite a bit better then FinalFantasy:My1stRPG.
My only complaint with the story being that

Spoiler

I never got a proper chance to administer the beatdown that Alonso deserved. Oh that would have been sweet.

 

[Jiggy]

from what I understood "Aeris" was the ultimate "good girl" in RPGs...well her luna and fina.

Aeris? Only if an element of being good involves hitting on the arrogant male lead and trying to verbally corner him into dating her not eight seconds after he falls through her roof.

Accidentally dropping a hammer on your foot > Skies of Arcadia > FF7

Also toastyfrog is awesome

 

[Blablurn]

FF VII > all

 

[bjork]

Even with PIRATES in it, SoA is no FFVII.

FFVII > *

 

[DDayton]

FFVI > FF7

Paper Mario > FF7

There are just SO many ways to play this game...

ff7 is trash

I'm wishing I had a t-shirt with Drinky on it wearing a t-shirt of himself wearing a t-shirt (etc. etc. etc.) saying that phrase.

 

[bjork]

FFVI > FF7

Paper Mario > FF7

No see, because this is in direct violation of the factual statement "FFVII > *"

Therefore, this is devoid of any merit and should be dismissed from the record!

 

[AdmiralViscen]

I like both games.

 

[john2kx]

SoA > * > FFVII

 

[Ristamar]

Ah.
No, my nick is reference to a decidedly awesome Lagwagon song.

And an awesome song it is. The acoustic version also rocks.

 

[Companion Cube]

I wish Square made SoA so we could get some Skies milk.

 

[SantaC]

finally playing SoA:Legends for the first time, after sitting on my shelf for 2 years

only 20 hours in but i can safely say that Skies of Arcadia >>>>>>>> FFVII

WOW JUST WOW

SKIES ROX

the game sure is amazing.

SMT: Nocturne > FF7 > All

 

[Error]

SMT: Nocturne > FF7 > All

preach it brother

preach it!

 

[DarkCloud]

Skies of Arcadia wins because it had a downloadable giant flying hoola hooper you could fight.


...also an island devoted to some nutcase that sides as a sports mascot.

You appear to be mistakenly flipping the "greater than" and "less than" symbols around.

 

[speedpop]

We're all forgetting the main element.

Legend of Zelda > everything.

 

[Yoboman]

FFVII hating has been made cool

 

[DSN2K]

Skies may be better but FFVII is far from crap.

 

[Terrell]

Skies may be better but FFVII is far from crap.

Oh crap, you're trying to bring LOGIC into this thread? Dude, run for the hills before the savages harvest your flesh for luncheon meat. :lol

Aside from that, QFT.

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

I thought this was common knowledge.

 

[Neo Child]

Are we still doing the " Game X > FFVII "?

Good.

Superman 64 > FFVII

 

[Manuel_Calavera]

Sukoden II > all

 

[7Th]

SMT: Nocturne > All

Fixed.

 

[DDayton]

Are we still doing the " Game X > FFVII "?
Good.
Superman 64 > FFVII

To play the "Game X > FFVII" game, you need a game to compare FFVII with.

Superman 64 is less a game than a testing ground for new debuggers.

 

[P90]

Skies may be better but FFVII is far from crap.

+1

 

[P90]

FFVII hating has been made cool

For all the hate yould think it was on a Nintendo console.

 

[JayDubya]

Well, this thread is composed of 100% bullshit. >_>

 

[scaffa]

Sudeki > SoA:L > FF7

Its the truth and you know it!

 

[Archie]

why is maf banned?

edit: nm he was bumping old posts like a dummy

 

[GSG Flash]

Ugh no way, anything>SOA
I've never felt like sleeping through a game, ever, until I played SOA

 

[Kittonwy]

Get that square bullshit outta here.

Skies of Arcadia has finally become THE most overrated RPG in the history of videogames.

 

[vitaflo]

Skies of Arcadia > *

 

[ronito]

Skies of Arcadia has finally become THE most overrated RPG in the history of videogames.

You know I used to think that nothing could unseat Chrono Cross from that title but SoA certainly seems to have done it.

 

[Saoh]

FF7 fanboys made me hate that game and is not even bad.

FF6 forever!!

 

[Y2Kev]

Ping Pals > SoA

 

[MoxManiac]

**** you wario

**** you demi

 

[FateBreaker]

Weren't they making a Skies of Arcadia 2? I could swear that I heard that once in this lifetime.

Maybe I'm delusional.

No it's true along with a PS2 version of the first game

 

[madara]

If Skies actually had as much going for its battle system as it does with its characters, world, style and charm I dont think anyone could plausibly knock it down. One of the best rpgs I ever played, I only wish the combat was better thought out, even if they had copy something like grandia's system. Remake Part Deux I say! Then bring on part 2.
