Sam Biscuits said: I've only just realized reading this thread that Blitzball was pretty much the last FF side game right? VII had Gold Saucer VIII had Triple Traid IX Tetra Master X Blitzball XII, um I may have forgotten, honest mistake if so, and mark hunting does not count, worst McGuffin of all time. XIII had the side game of trying to imagining many different ways you could disembowel Snow, Hope and Vanille. :)

Spidey said: I agree with Ashilyn's that its been happening the whole time but the graphics just didn't let you notice. Did you realize Sabin skids the water like a skipping stone several times before he actually falls into the water when thrown off the raft? If you showed the same thing on the PS3 it would like like some crazy FF13 shit too. There's people jumping off houses and doing crazy shit in FF4 and FF5 all the time if you go back and play it again.
Ashilyn said: Not to mention basic shit that's in nearly every game like dragoons jumping, which is the EXACT same kind of thing, just not as flashy because older graphics didn't really let it be flashy.
