Only complaint, could you guys lean off the japanese games and make fun of well known games
I love that someone says this every time we do a JRPG, no matter how many other games we do.
Paul and I honestly joke about how long it'll take for someone to say it. Page 4 is a new record actually, usually it's much sooner.

Too Human? Borderlands? Riddick? Prototype? Red Faction?
No no, we only make fun of Japanese games, clearly.

This got me to thinking, and despite JRPGs mostly taking there character design queues from anime, Cloud is the only FF main character to have ridiculous spiky anime hair.

I thought that was a good one.

I don't see why they chose this story thread for the 3d transition, the creatures in it just don't look good when they make the transition in my opinion, I mean when you look at it the rabbit headed ones (I forget their race name) just look like playboy bunnies.

I know allot of people have probably already said this but it bears re-mentioning

Good episode.
It seems to me as if the episodes with cutscenes originating from Japan often turn out the funniest.

The banhammer is going down on you.

Nobody expects the spanish inquisition!

OT: I never get tired of Unskippable, they should do commentary for full games.
These guys get banned so many times, that it's pointless of you to tell them that they're gonna get banned.

1. Seymour has unreasonable hair...Game Informer named him #2 in the Worst Haircut List
2. The bunny people are called the Viera (if I recall correctly).
3. I bet if more JRPGs had more zombies and musclebound space marines, they wouldn't get such hate around here. Oh...and more chest high walls. Can't forget those.

I almost though you weren't going to mention Russel for a second. I like how you manage to have recurring characters in a series composed entirely of cutscenes from completely unrelated games. Eyebrows and the Thugs need to make a return.

I find that most rpg's have some sort of zombie. You don't normally find a space marine in a fantasy setting unless you are playing Star Ocean. Muscles on an rpg character are not that common. Barret from ff7 is about the most muscle bound character you will find in a jrpg. I'm sure you are talking about Gears of War, a world where everyone is ridiculously muscled for no particularly good reason. The viera are the bunny girls, and the little bunny people are the tactics advanced version of the moogle.

The hero of the story is definately Balthier. He's like 30 years old. Vaan does have a weak personality, but at least more is done for him than penelope. This game may seem to have alot of star wars references, but that is because it's based off of ff4, which was mostly taken from star wars. It's a fun enough game. I was really surprised when they ditched their normal set of espers and went with a new set. Ivalice hasn't been my favorite game setting since they moved to the GB for tactics advanced and introduced the retarded judge system.

Wow.. Major kudos to Graham for sticking up for the show! It's not like there's a vendetta of JRPG's on Unskippable. Yahtzee's the one who really hates them, and really, with good reason.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a Final Fantasy fan (not fanBOY, but fan), but I know enough to understand that JRPG's have a lot to learn from the RPG genre.

Thankfully, FFXIII looks extremely promising to be kickass, as well as FFXIV showing FFXI who's the *****.

To Graham and Paul's credit, FFXII was a great choice for Unskippable! I mean, really, half-way through the creation of the game, one of the lead designers went insane and resigned, leaving it to the guy who made Final Fantasy II (wherein the male lead character dreams of a world of FLOWERS) decided to change FFXII so that Vaan was the lead, not Basch. Here's the thing, Vaan's storyline basically drops to nothing mid-way through. o_O So.. Uh.. Yeah.
Awesome work as usual, GS and PS!

And yes, FFXII ripped Star Wars so bloody lot. Biggs and Wedge just weren't enough anymore...
you do know they were whistling the chocobo song from one of the earlier final fantasies? atleast i think they were
Well, yes. What suggest I don't?

(The word "and" in te beginning of a sentence usually implies changing the subject, if the SW comment is what you are getting at. Nothing to add to the chocobo theme song.)
