"When Marvy leaves his room, Slowe is in the hall waiting for him. He wants Marvy to come with him into town for a little shopping trip, 'if [he's] up for it.' Is Marvy Gaye up for some shopping? Is the sky blue? Is Rinoa stupid?"

Breath of Fire III |
|
The innovative and original gaming experience that helped make the Breath of Fire franchise the veritable RPG powerhouse it is today. ...Oh, just try and say that with a straight face. .........DRAGONS!! |

Breath of Fire IV |
|
A non-groundbreaking RPG about a boy who can turn into a dragon at will. Um, okay. Ryu (a.k.a Ruley) is on a personal journey to discover his origins and to find the best hair salon in the land. Unfortunately, he is slowed down by one of the most annoying Mary Sues in game history, who is on a quest to find her missing sister. Cue much controller-throwing and screaming as I try to cope with the tedium of it all.

Chrono Cross |
|
The much anticipated sequel to Chrono Trigger brought us seven times as many characters with one-seventh of the personalities of the originals, as well as a horrendously complicated plotline. Join me as I try to make sense of it all -- and fail miserably. |

Chrono Trigger |
|
Crono is a young man who just wants to live in peace and harmony with nature, slaughtering everything he sees with his SHINY SHINY sword. Unfortunately for him, he meets a young girl at the fair that happens to be a princess, and devotes the rest of his life to catering to her every whim. Throw in a crazed genius with a time machine, and much time travel-related trouble ensues. Somewhere along the line, the world gets saved. Go figure. |

Eternal Darkness |
|
Eternal Darkness has one goal -- to fuck with your sanity. Obviously, this sets it apart from games such as Final Fantasy X, Kingdom Hearts, and Chrono Cross. The story of humanity's struggle against a group of evil gods is told through the eyes of different characters in different countries over the course of many years. Though the male characters are a diverse group -- old and young, fat and skinny, straight and gay -- the few chicks in the game are all young, hot, and thin. Go women's lib! |

Final Fantasy IV |
|
One of the earliest FF games (the 4th, duh) places us in the shoes of Cecil, a Dark Knight with a conscience. Cecil seems to have come from the same production line as Squall ? his slogan could almost be "New Squall Lite: the great taste of the original Squall, but with no added gayness!" Other than that small fact (and the crappy graphics, sound, and characters) the game is quite good. Really. |

Final Fantasy VI |
|
Final Fantasy VI is a magnificently narrated story which explores the true nature of humanity, friendship, love and loyalty. It speaks to
so many gamers through its deep characterization and flawless, innovative storytelling. Yeah, I'm totally jerking your chain--it's nothing but a
tangled mess of torrid love triangles, horrendous Mary Sues and ADD cases. But hey, the music is really good! |

Final Fantasy VII |

The game known as the bane of old schoolers to some, and the greatest game ever made to others. To me it's a mess of polygons, bad exposition, and a cool bad guy. |

Final Fantasy VIII |

Squall and Seifer are two gay young men with phallic weapons who want nothing more than to run away together once they get this whole "rivals" thing out of their systems. Unfortunately, there's something called the "script" which forces a young woman named Rinoa into the picture. Read the recap, where I tell you the true story. |

Final Fantasy IX |
|
Because so many people didn't like the wacky Final Fantasy that was VIII, Square has gone back to square one in their search for a game that not everyone hates. Were they successful? Well, this time people bitched that the game was too similar to past Final Fantasies. Square just can't win, can they? |

There's really only one thing you need to know about this game -- Tidus is a wanker. Oh yeah, and it's the first Final Fantasy for the PS2. And if I hear one more person bitch about the lack of an overworld map, I will have to kick him in the balls. |

Final Fantasy X-2 |

This Is Yuna's Story. It is also the story of a man named Tetsuya Nomura--former horny costume designer, current horny character designer--who dreamed of the sweet day when millions of cute young girls would wear skimpy outfits of his own creation. Thanks to Final Fantasy X-2 and cosplayers worldwide, his dream has come true. And there are lesbians. |

Grandia II |

A sad story about a sarcastic and bitter young man who becomes a brainwashed, touchy-feely dolt. It's worse than FF7 and FF8's transformations combined. Plus there is not one, but two Mary Sues in the plot. Yay. |

For those of you who needed even more evidence that the game designers at Squaresoft are smoking crack, here it is. Join Sora and his gang of Final Fantasy stereotypes as they traipse their way through the biggest merchandising cross-promotion of all time. It's Final Fantasy. It's Disney. It's making me crave alcohol. |

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time |
|
Before Wind Wanker Twink was even a cel-shaded twinkle in a game designer's dilated eye, there was another Twink -- the one that originally saved Hyrule from Ganondorf and his terrible skin. This is his story of courage -- the courage to face horrible dungeons and a boatload of Mary Sues who insist on stalking his sweet, sweet candy. If that weren't bad enough, he has to put up with this shit in two different timelines. |

Wind Wanker is different from other Zelda games in that instead of running around Hyrule, Link (Twink) traverses a vast ocean with a talking boat. Yeah. But just like in every other Zelda title, our pointy-eared hero is really, really gay. Ah, the more things change, the more they stay the same. |

Metroid: Other M |
|
Metroid: Other M is supposed to provide a narrative bridge between Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion. But in reality, it's the story of Samus's boobs and their valiant efforts to break free of the oppressive spacesuit that restrains them. Amid all the jiggling, there's exactly one half of a murder mystery plot, some sublimated daddy issues, and a truly embarrassing motherhood leitmotif. Because SAMUS IS A LADY and LADIES HAVE ISSUES, Y'ALL. |

There's a lot I could say about Persona 4, but at the risk of pissing off some of its more rabid devotees, let's just say it's Pokemon meets Cluedo meets one of those creepy obscure Japanese dating simulators and be done with it. Throw in an amazing soundtrack and more HoYay than you can shake a stick at, and we've got ourselves a game. |

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney |
|
When you think of stereotypically gay professions, things like "hairdresser" or "Broadway performer" probably come to mind. Not so much "lawyer," I would imagine. Well, buckle your seatbelts, because we're about to embark on Big Gay Phoenix's Big Gay Court Ride, and it's chock-fucking-full of gay lawyers, gay policemen, and gay pretty much anything you can think of. If your immediate reaction to this statement is to scream "Objection!" at me...well, read the recap for all the hard evidence you can handle. |

Join me as I blunder my way through puzzles, traps, a rotate-forward controller scheme, and the overwhelming impression that the game designers were on a shit load of hallucinogenic drugs when they made this game. Nothing says "family friendly entertainment" like shotguns, chainsaws and killer zombie dogs. |

Skies of Arcadia |
|
The first time I read the term "Air Pirates," I was skimming, and thought it said "Ass Pirates." Ironically, the main character, Vyse, is the straightest RPG hero we've seen in a while. This game gets rid of some of the common RPG conventions -- mainly, you are now forced into random battles while flying your airship. |

Suikoden |

The game you get when you cross Final Fantasy and Pokemon. It's the story of a young man named PUGGY!!! from a country where asses abound. His dad is one of the Great Generals of the Empire, and you know that means that PUGGY!!! will end up fighting against the Empire -- and his dad will die. It's not good to be a parental figure in an RPG. |

But after the trauma of receiving a Cursed Rune and going through a really bad breakup, suddenly he's broody, stuck out at sea, and chest-deep in Other People's Politics. And that Rune kinda sucks, too. |

An old-skool style RPG involving a cast with big swords and even bigger hair. What lies in store for our intrepid heroes as they wander the land, deep in conversation with their weapons? Usually I'd say a one-way ticket to the nuthouse would be in order, but since this is a videogame, your guess is as good as mine. |

Tales of Symphonia |
|
Welcome to a cutesy-looking, cel-shaded game which rivals Lunar for Dumbest Cast Ever. A game that shamelessly steals plotlines and characters from other well-known games, and the most original feature is that the Mary Sue isn't the white mage. Mix all that together with a boatload of effeminate men and an anvil-tastic discrimination storyline and we've got a recap. |

Wild ARMs |
|
The first game in the underrated Wild ARMs series introduces us to the now-famous "play as 3 heroes" system, the tools system and the ARMs of
the title. However, it also introduces us to a cast of insipid cookie-cutter characters, an unbearably clich? storyline and a collection of
villains filched from 'Power Rangers'. Oh yeah, and it's the first RPG to have (allegedly) a Wild West theme. Like that's something to brag
about. |

Things are looking grim in the dire, dire West -- bandits abound, vicious monsters terrorize the populace, and the once-verdant forests of Feelgayer are being eroded by barren wasteland. Four strangers and their PENISes hold the key to their world's survival, but they seem to be more interested in talking about birds. Oh, and annoying me as much as possible, but that should be a given. |

She dimwits her way through a galaxy full of jargon and overwrought religious symbolism, accompanied by her pet lesbian robot. So if you're a fanboy in need of servicing, get ready for a virtual smorgasbord of boobs and panty shots! |
