The Old Skool Cult of Kefka, bitches! - Page 103

Happy new year and stuff? Sure.

Holy Buddha cakes! I've just come back from playing the original 1992 DOS Alone in the Dark! How's that for old skool?

I'm so glad I kept that old Windows 95 133 Mhz former-beast. Bwahaha. I freaking loved/still love that game. Resident Evil can suck its zombie balls when compared to this game. the graphics make me laugh. I swear to god they look almost as good (bad) as FFVII graphics, but were made in 1992, before 3D graphic cards. Oh the memories.

Cheers to a new year of Cult, mates.

cheers my fellow old schoolers!

WTF has been going on?!?! man I'm out of the loop. 40 hours week and school on the side isn't so fun but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

not much old schoolin as of late..the only thing I seem to play these days is online shooters like Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and DoD: Source..though my friend who just recently purchased an xbox360 gave me his gamecube and games to play since I've never owned one. So Resident Evil 4/Eternal Darkness/Pikmin 2 has kept me busy on the side.

hopefully everyone is having an old school tastic new year!

Holy crap 'Alone in the Dark'

I haven't thought about that game in ages.....

I need to play that. Is it in that "so old it's free" catagory yet?

CP: Okami, FF6a

Heeey there. As usual, it's been awhile. Oddly enough, I was old-schooling it not that long ago as I pulled out the original LoZ and subsequently owned.

It's funny how we remember certain things. The dungeons were not lost on me. Apart from that, gaming just hasn't been a major part of life right now. Mind you, I get the urge every now and again to whip out either Chrono Trigger, FF6, or the likes of those. The obsessive compulsive in me craves an RPG...

CP: The piano.

Jin · 02-20-2008, 08:23 PM

Wow, we've had a good 4 posts since the new year. That's pretty sad guys. What's happened to you all?

Good to see you alive and about, Dau. I feel your pain on the lack of time thing. I've been playing FFVI and FFVIII lately, but when I do have free time, it's never for long enough to warrent playing an RPG. I hate playing them patchily. And I rarely have the energy anyways these days. I've been reading more than gaming lately. Oh god, education! Run!

Now I know you aren't all giving in to higher education, so no excuses. Get yer asses on and post at least once a month...or year.

Oh, right. Something to post. Um, Rogue Galaxy is pretty nice, it's very generous considering it's a dungeon crawler RPG. You can teleport between savepoints on the same world. Pretty nice if you run out of stock. And the savepoints replenish all your HP/SP. But yeah. Melty Blood is really nice, been playing it online. Saiyuki is one hell of an anime, too.

I'm sure I've been lurking long enough that people forgot I was a member of this particular club.

CP:
Caesar III (Can't get past the first scenario with an earthquake)
Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions (Is this old school yet?)
Final Fantasy XII (Got the Zodiac Spear, hell yeah!)

I honestly can't stand the AI in Caesar III sometimes. People who live directly next to a market are starving to death. I can't please all the gods for shit. I can't produce enough pottery fast enough to keep those damned houses from devolving.

I am currently in the middle of my tradition of beating FFT at least once per year. Cid is still overpowered, and the Dark Knight job is insanely difficult to unlock.

FFXII is stuck in limbo until I can find my PS2 memory card. Whoops.

*Mistress Sheena* · 02-23-2008, 11:39 PM

Rasler needs to play me in MTG, too.
Morningtide has come out, so there are new possibilities. Have to modify my elf deck.
Still have to test my Yubel theme deck that I transferred from Yugioh to MTG. xD

**LocoColt04** · 03-18-2008, 11:34 PM

Soooooo...

I know a post full of links probably isn't a very good one, so here are the links anyway, and then I actually have something relevant to add to it.

FFIV DS OST
Xenogears OST
Digital Devil Saga 1/2 OST(s)
Lost Odyssey OST

I'm a soundtrack nut. I have most of the OSTs, and the recent release of Lost Odyssey made me want to splurge again, so of course, one OST turned into two, which quickly turned into four...

Also, I'm FINALLY getting around to completing my FF collection and picking up a copy of FFVIII while I'm at it. Also, Chrono Cross for good measure. Having never had a PSX, I missed out on those two, and they're really hard to come by. I don't mind that they're Greatest Hits... and they're new, so I'm not complaining, either.

Oh hell, here's a screencap. Also note the stuff in my "saved items" section.

Don't forget to add $30 onto that for FedEx. Total? US$213.30

So then, the relevant topic?

Videogame OSTs. Do you (legitimately) own any? If so, which?

edit: Oh shit, right, currently playing.

Wild Arms XF [Crossfire] (PSP)
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates (DS)
Final Fantasy VI (GBA version)
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii)
Patapon (PSP)
Rock Band (PS3)

DOUBLE POST FOR GREAT JUSTICE!!!

Mostly because I want to make sure everyone sees my last post, and partially because this post has absolutely nothing to do with it. Forever and a day ago, a young lad named Nathan expressed interest in joining the OSCoK. Then I went AFK for a few months and Dawezy never tested out his game knowledge either.

That said, I'm just gonna let the young whippersnapper in.

You get a free pass because we're all old and lazy and senile. Welcome to the Cult. We reserve the right to kick you out if... well... umm... if you bash on old school stuff?

Yeah that's fine. I'd have to kick my own ass myself if I bashed the classics...
Good to be a member.

On to videogame soundtracks, the ones I can see on my shelf are mostly fairly new as video game music is a more recent thing I've begun to collect. I have most Final Fantasy soundtracks as I've been a big collector and felt the desire to own all I could regardless of how they had to be imported, and I do have a lot of chip music I'd consider questionably legal due to me ripping them from my own games I plan on keeping with third party hardware and applications.

Apart from that, Shin Megami Tensei Digital Devil Saga 2 original soundtrack, the Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess soundtrack, Unreal Tournament soundtrack (via that last anthology), Baldur's Gate soundtrack, Baldur's Gate 2 soundtrack, Icewind Dale soundtrack, Blue Dragon (I know, I know, I liked the music. And I got it cheap) ><, Chocobo Racing OST, Chrono Trigger - The Brink of Time, Chrono Cross OST, Dragon Quest Symphonic Suite and Kingdom Hearts OST.

I also have several of those overclocked remix ones that are free to download. My favourites being the Chrono Trigger one, and the Final Fantasy VII one. I think there were some nice Sonic ones too, if I remember correctly.

I've been trying to see if any legit looking Final Fantasy VI soundtracks are floating around as it is my favourite, but so far they elude me. I do have most of the soundtracks though.

Currently Playing: For now, Ring of Fates and Dragon Quest Monsters Joker, both of which I purchased today.
And the NES Classics LoZ on gba, which I've been playing for the last couple of days again. Once I play it a good deal, I'll be back to Tales of Phantasia to work on as complete a game as I can without a guide. So far I think I've clocked up 180 hours or so playing on and off.

**Dawezy** · 03-21-2008, 04:43 AM

Loco ftw~

And yes, my long absence from posting on TFF and doing like erm.. anything, has a legit excuse behind it for a change! You see I just happen to move house again where-in my room now is quite sorted out and sexy, but, rest of the house is in shambles and still a HELL of alot of work to be had. Then on the side of that I have my work to attend to (you know, money, and stuff, keeps me alive and what have you.) aswell as my forever-growing hentai/pornography collection and FF11 addiction. As casual as my hours of work are I really get beat up from the nature of my position ~ I usually have a couple hour nap when I get home on most days :3

My hat off to the young lad tho, I probably had a heap of questions in the field of SEGAry to toss at you but I likely forgot

no big though, welcome \^_^/ a little note I should add along side your joining our ranks. We dont always post *every single day* but we DO post when the topic arises/not feeling lazy/wantz to socialize, etc.

On ze topic that Loco has presented, I cannot contribute any legitamite title as 100.1% of the OST's I have were downloaded/written to CD. Fore I have no shame in my piracy work as I have no shame in my hentai addiction~

In recent times my keyboard has been mashed by these titles;
= FF6A/5A
= FF11 (There would be something wrong, if this wasnt listed surely)
= Oblivion (For our resident Jin <3)
= A hell of alot of SEGA Genesis ROMs
= C&C The First Decade
.\= more specifically, C&C Tiberian Sun / Generals Zero Hour

Also, for shits and giggles I been getting into Robot Chicken lately.
