Dissidia First impressions

Ever since I got a PSP I've been looking forward to one game, Dissidia: Final Fantasy. And now that I have a copy I thought I would share A bit of my Impressions of the game so far.

Now I've only played a couple of hours and these are nowhere near final thoughts.

Graphics: This game is stunning to look at. The fighters, weather based on the original sprites or artwork, are true to the Characters and they all fit into the world nicely. Also the Sprites used for the in game manual pay great tribute to the games that preceded this.

Gameplay: It's a 3d fighter, the combat can be hard to learn but once you do it's very fun!

And that's all i can really comment on at this point. Hopefully i will update more with my thoughts and experiences!

"She" Lyrics by Ben Schmidt and Andy Stuelke

She's Looking over at me

My mind has froze

My friends say to talk to her

but I am too afraid

I look over but her spot is empty

Looks like my wish won't come true

But In my dreams

I see her smile

and know that I'll

Fall in love with her

And here she'll be

Next to me

Till the end of time

 She'll be mine

She Said she'd like to know me

I can't say a word

My heart is Pounding loudly

I hope she doesn't hear

I try to be cool but I'm too shy to do it

I must look like a fool.

Why am I so afraid around her

It causes so much pain

I know I can't live without her

It all seems the same.

Every time I see her face I feel like exploding

I can't go on with my life without knowing....

(Chorus)

She's looking over at me,

everything goes dark

I see no other people

only her bright face

This room used to be filled up with people

Looks like my wish has come true.

(Chorus)

A minute of your time please

Life sure can take some drastic changes.
On thanksgiving my father was admitted into mercy hospital for a potassium deficiency after passing out after dinner. And Yesterday Morning, Saturday December 13 2008, He left this world to be with the lord. I don't know what else to say about it.

But that's not what this post is about, this is about how grateful I am for the people in my life. From those of you who gave my hugs and encouragement yesterday, to Ross who bought me lunch, to all of you who chipped in to get me wow, To Abbey, Ben, Colin, Jack, and Ellen for Spending time with me so I wouldn't have been alone and sad, And Finally to all of those who are praying for my family I thank you. It is gratefully appreciated. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I promise they'll get better.

Your Debut Album

well this might be fun.
So this forum game has me having fun, so i thought i should put my entry up here so everyone can play too!

Rules:
1 - Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Random quotations: http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

If you want to do this again, you’ll hit refresh to generate new quotes, because clicking the quotes link again will just give you the same quotes over and over again.

3 - Go to flickr’s “explore the last seven days” http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

Put it all together, that’s your debut album. Feel free to add some back story. I shopped the band & album name onto the cover as well.

here's mine

Thoughts?

I've discovered something.

Collaborative writing is good. People will openly support it. And often people seek input when they write.
But! When that Same process is applied to a game it suddenly becomes taboo...


Strange...
