With Advent Children out, and a Penny-Arcade describing just what I mean, I think it's time to release an anger I've had for the centuries of my existence--the Gaming Poser.
Most of you should have that one acquaintance, the one that gets all the systems when they come out, the one that has a library of games with maybe one or two hidden treasure, but for the most part is virtually worthless.
I know I have that acquaintance.
In any case, if you'd look through the files of this peer's computer, you'd see an abundance of Halo pictures, Final Fantasy VII-X pictures, maybe even a few Dreamcast images or Bangai-O screenshots.
What irks me? This particular person hasn't gotten past the train wreck in Final Fantasy VII, hasn't shared a dance with Rinoa in Final Fantasy VIII, hasn't even performed a play in Final Fantasy IX, and fails to comprehend any of the dream that is Final Fantasy X. This particular person hated the Dreamcast until it was done for, and then saw others boast about it. This particular person is the type of person that claims to understand Bangai-O, when we all know damn fucking straight that you don't understand Bangai-O. That's what makes it Bangai-O. You don't fucking understand it.
And now, with Advent Children out, and with them calling Sephiroth "so fucking cool" without even witnessing the Niebelheim burning for themselves, I find myself clenching my knife in CS: Source, wishing my Jewish body was more like that of the mercenary-figure known as Leon in the Dead or Alive series.
Where's my Reese's Puffs...
