    I don't play anything horror because it's all too scary.
    Play Project Zero/Fatal Frame.

    The Prison in HL2 is my limit in scary gaming.

    Well, ya'll need to learn the rule of 3

    Things generally cease being funny after the 3rd time.

    Like being walked in on?
    I would have thought that would have ceased with the first.

    you're terrible

    It was good animation, character development, and a compelling plotline set in an incredibly rich and imaginative world.

    You can dislike it for any number of reasons but sorry, it's not terrible.

    isn't it set in a world full of martial artists based on the four elements?

    that's not very original

    everything i've read about it makes it sound like the same vaguely asian shlock fantasy you get everywhere else except with better production

    I've never heard of a world with 4 nations, each based on a different element.

    And dyna, other people bring that up, not me. I do find it funny though, and I certainly did sig it for a while.

    IV is my all time favorite. I liked that it had mostly angst-free characters and didn't overstay its welcome.

    Man, 7 was great for the time, but i don't think it would hold up AT ALL. 10 was totally Meh, and 12 was fucking fantastic.

    I tried to play the first one they remade on DS (3 i think?) and couldn't get past the first 20 minutes.

    It really felt like they were - finally - trying to break free of the JRPG mold and really deal with the characters, their motivations and interactions, in a semi-adult way. There was a lot of retarded baggage (don't open this random chest in the second dungeon if you want the endgame uber-weapon!) and the story ran out of gas about 3/4 of the way through, but it was a really cool effort and I'm scared that they're going to go back to more familiar ground for XIII.

    I heard good things about VI.

    And I'll probably pick up XIII at some point, once I get and play Eternal Sonata, Lost Odyssey, and Fallout 3.

    This is pretty much what kept me from playing most RPGs during my childhood. "What, I had to stand there and let the guy hit me? Fuck that!"

    Mostly just makes it quicker, because I don't have to actually read the name. I can keep my eyes focused on the text and just catch the "who it was" out of the corner of my eye.

    VII is still my favorite to return to if I need a nostalgia fix. I don't know how it would hold up for someone who's using it as a springboard into the genre/series, but for me it's still a very solid experience.

    IX gets no love though. I loved IX, even if the last act was a little rushed (Square games always are...).
