This, I assume, is in regards to the recent PSO PKing problem. As I think I have said, it would be one thing if PSO were a massively multiplayer game allowing Player Killing, but it isn't either. The closest analogy would be if you were at a big party, playing Secret of Mana, waiting for a friend to, say, come back from the bathroom to control a character, and some random punk walked over, plugged a Game Shark into the other controller slot, letting him control the sprite kid and before you can blink casts a spell that wipes your whole party out, laughs, and goes back to partying. Before you say that's not a fair analogy because you can't just plug in a game shark mid game like that (plus the SNES was in the Game Genie era), bear in mind that Sega bent over backwards to make that impossible in PSO too.

Well, if the names in the credits are all different, either it's by different people, or everyone involved had their name changed. Probably the former. In most cases when a game comes out with Tactics in it's name, it was made by a different development team specializing in tactical combat with input from the original developers.

That letter was actually sent in by me, so thanks for that. Considering how the rest of the book is so frighteningly precise it's a tad odd how those two points aren't clearly covered, or at least not covered where they should be. Heck, I'm mildly tempted to rip out every page in this book and put them back in a more sensible order!

As far as I can tell, Squaresoft is pretty generous when it comes to that sort of thing. The only name from them that's really WIDELY recognized is Final Fantasy. Xenogears, while it has it's very rabid fans, didn't really net Square a big heap of cash. So, particularly considering their FF-only policy for the year, I can see them having let Monolith keep the rights. Especially considering that honestly, I couldn't see there being that many name overlaps. All you'd keep would be the appearences of what? 3 characters? Maybe the names of a couple gears? As long as it isn't CALLED Xenogears 2, they're fine.

There you go whoever needed that!

To review, no, Paws and MN aren't really getting married, or quitting, or leaving their respective countries. Even if they were, it wouldn't be the lesbian marriage that has a few people so freaked out (case in point: a funny flame in my box here) seeing as Paws is really a guy and all.

Hey, just wanted to ask if this Chris guy is going to post the Xenogear Alternity stuff on RPGamer or on his site or what?

Waaaaagh! I can't answer the poll! My first Dragon Quest was Dragon Quest: Mystic Fantasy! What do I do?!?!?
