I’ve been slowly and steadily making progress in Final Fantasy 8, and I must say, I feel like I’m finally starting to get the hang of things. As of writing this, I have just reached disc 2, and I have grown far fonder of the game and its characters than I did on my first…

Day 17: Favorite Antagonist
As you can see, I’m still working my way through the 30 days’ worth of video game topics, and I’ve just managed to get a couple days past the halfway point. Yay for me! Day 17’s topic is my favorite antagonist. For me, talking about my favorite of anything can be difficult because my favorites…
Hopefully Conquering Final Fantasy 8: Part 1

Tricks, Treats, and Feats: The Gyrocopter and Philmobile
If you were to go trick or treating, I bet you’d be mighty surprised if, rather than candy, you were given the keys to a car. While such a thing would probably not be all that exciting to a young child, who would surely rather a candy bar or peanut butter cup, a vehicle…
