It's the internet, it's designed to get a rise out of people. Lots of people are stupid enough to actually get upset and respond, publicity is the aim here. Ironically I wouldn't have known or cared about this guy/video if you hadn't posted it here.

I am just waiting for Sine and Flip to come in here and agree with him completely, he sounds just like them =P

Errr, you are aware Flip likes the FF series.

Err, maybe it was Kali I was thinking of?

Those rabid game hate-post guys kind of run together =P

But this guy is especially amateurish and moronic. As if IGN didn't give off enough bad vibes this takes them down a notch.

Incidentally, the only reason I found this is because they decided to make it one of their feature stories with the slow down during this holiday season. I'm sure I miss the vast majority of drudge like this and I couldn't be happier for it

ROFL! I find it hilarious that you actually take this video seriously! I bet you were feverishly writing down the email address to write him hate mail. So, fess up, where is your two-hour rant you wrote to this guy? Does it include detailed examples of why FF is the greatest series ever?

The jokes are stuff that people have done before. (Come on? The whole "males that look like females" thing has been overdone.) But, considering that FF continues to do things like that, it's worth repeating. (Come on? Turn-based combat? AGAIN?)

Who the fuck took it seriously? I was just saying "this is shit, I hope to hell none of you like this shit"

I loves Final Fantasy. The rant was funny though, it reminds me of all my friends who only play madden and first person shooters.

Can't resist, can you? :-)

Does this mean that Echoes of Time, Tactics A2, 12: Revenant Wings, Rings of Fate, and Crystal Bearers are among your favourite games in the series?

Reverent Wings is okay, but not great. After a while, the battles got boring and the story was uber boring kiddie bullshit.

I realized several years ago that most game journalism isn't. Once one realizes that, dealing with any asshattery publicity stunt or stupid coverage gets much easier.
