Just beat Final Fantasy XV. Overall, a very-well done game. My pick for Game of the Year.

Me. Got the digital edition pre-downloaded. I'm out of town currently, but it will be ready to play when I get back. Pretty much the only time that NA gamers get a FF game before Japan (if only by two days).

Just beat the Lingering Will on Critical. Without the Fenrir exploit. Instead, I used Berserk Charge and Fantasia exploit. Now to get the rest of the secret ending requirements...

Just beat Kingdom Heart II Final Mix on Critical. Secret bosses (I'm thinking of the Lingering Will in particular) aside, it's not called the hardest difficulty for nothing. Especially at the end. Having half as much health gets to you if you aren't a pro at blocking with the endgame bosses. Still haven't beaten Marluxia and Sephiroth on Critical or Lingering Will on any difficulty.

I am totally loving Square Enix's trailers this TGS! Not just 2.8, but FF XV, and especially World of Final Fantasy as well. That Rydia and Tifa dual reveal really made my day. Glad WoFF is getting some FF IV love at last!

True. To be honest, I thought that their PAX West coverage, including their 2.8 coverage was quite good and a lot, a lot better than their TGS 2014 (that was the infamous Roxas is a Garabage Character Moment) and E3 2015 coverage. My problem is with some of their devotees who say that: IGN says something, therefore it must be true!

Arguing with anyone who worships IGN like the gospel is so much fun. LOL! Especially when it involves Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts.

Just finished watching Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV and I really enjoyed it, especially the action scenes. And I did not think that the story was confusing at all. Personally, I don't think that the movie deserved the negative reviews that it got from the "Mainstream" Western Critics.

My take on the ending of KH x: if you liked the ending of Birth by Sleep, you'll love Chi's ending. But on the flip side: too many unanswered questions (but I suppose those questions with be resolved in either the update on the 29th, season 2 of unchained x, Back Cover, or skies forbid, Kingdom Hearts III). But overall a good ending.

I was talking about about the Kingdom Hearts Chi update tomorrow. I should have been more specific.

Less than 24 hours to go! And it looks like the ending won't be delayed this time!

So Bartz from Final Fantasy V and Terra from Final Fantasy VI were just confirmed for World of Final Fantasy. Glad to see more classic Final Fantasy characters appearing in that game. Now if only there were more appearances by some FF IV characters. Just saying. Sorry, but Final Fantasy IV is my all-time favorite Final Fantasy game.

Loved the first 12 minutes of Kingsglaive. More than made up for FFXV delay, IMO.

I pre-ordered the Deluxe edition from the Square Enix store within a week after FFXV: Uncovered event. I should make a disclaimer that you need to pre-order it from the Square Enix online store. Pre-ordering it anywhere else doesn't count apparently.

Just did my first go into the FF XV: Carbuncle Surprise Sweepstakes and won the Final Fantasy XV Cindymobile DLC skin. Not bad, I suppose.

So Dream Drop Distance turned 4 today. Quite fond memories of that game, as it was the very first Kingdom Hearts game that I played and the one that would get me into the Kingdom Hearts series.

September is certainly turning into an interesting month for news and releases. And to be sure, there was already a fair amount of incoming news before the NX "rumor."

Just preordered the World of Final Fantasy Collector's Edition. This will be my first collector's edition of a game (excluding the FF XV Deluxe Edition I pre-ordered earlier this year). However, this one is in a different league as it contains the usual collector's edition stuff such as artwork and game soundtrack. Those two things are requirements of a true collector's edition, in my opinion.

Started the first of the new story quests in KHUx and the Bam! the music changes to that of Laughter and Merriment of Kingdom Hearts 2! Glad to see that Square is incorporating some more memorable elements Kingdom Hearts 2. Wish they would do more.

Port Royal from KH II is one of those worlds that people either hate or they love. Personally, I hated it on my first playthrough, but once I figured out the lure-the-pirates-into-the-moonlight-trick-then-zap-'em-with-magic, I learned to love it. I really hope Square brings Port Royal back for KH III (covering both the second and third movies). Also, PotC 5 is one of my most anticipated movies of early 2017.

Right now, between the latest Kingdom Hearts x story update, the latest FF XV Brotherhood episode, and the World of Final Fantasy gameplay trailer that was just released, that is perhaps too much to take in one day. Especially the the KH x story part.

Almost play time for Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness! Just about an hour and a half of wait time as of writing.

For the record, anyone who didn't catch the comments from Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ producer Hironori Okayama (whose name I would like to apologize for omitting) can now be found on Square Enix Presents E3 2016 Day 2 roughly at the 2:20:20 mark (note that is the Youtube video I am referring to, so the timing could be different for Twitch video).

For me, the best part of the 2.8 portion of Square Enix Presents was when one Nomura's top director's announced that not only was Unchained x coming to Europe tomorrow, but everyone was getting an Aqua medal and to please stop sharing your Donald medals. Way to throw a shade at those players who keep sharing 1-star Donalds!
