Heeey guys, so as you know (or may not know), I'm reviving this series and it has come to my attention that I've already made 20 of this posts. That is quite an achievement for me.
CLAP FOR ME, DAMMIT.
Anywaaay...
So what do I do to celebrate this achievement? Review them and pick out my favorites. You are welcome to pick your own as well (Shameless attempt to make you read through my blog lolz) and if that doesn't work, you can share your own...jerk.
Now some of this are edited to fit with the times and to correct some grammatical errors. I hope you all enjoy this shit as much as I do. Here's to hoping I don't forget about this again or run of material...again.
*You will know you're hanging out with someone young when you sing the Pokemon Cartoon Show Theme Song and they don't recognize it. It also makes you feel very old.
*When I was ten, I tried ordering an official strategy guide for Final Fantasy VII on the phone. FROM THE USA. I almost bought one... if I had access to a credit card. All because I couldn't get a Gold Chocobo. Kid frustrations.
*During my senior year of high school, we get to do our final exams first before anyone in the school does so that we can practice our graduation rites. Now after the exams, teachers would mostly leave us alone to sing songs and do pointless shit. Me, on the other hand, would skip most of the graduation rites practices and go home or not go to school at all. Most of my classmates thought I was getting sick or I was avoiding someone but all I did was finish a bunch of RPGs. Twas time well spent.

*Of all the retro RPGs I could remember, one always stands out and that's Jade Cocoon: Story of the Tamamayu for the PS1. Nothing beats playing a little more manly version of Pokemon.
*When I was old enough and started to grow a beard, I bought my first pack of cigarettes. Now I don't smoke. I just bought them for a friend and I wanted to see if I looked old enough to buy a pack of cigarettes.
*I had this friend who borrowed Disc 4 of my Legend of Dragoon because his disc was broken. Now bear in mind, I still haven't reached that part of the game as I was still stuck at Disc 2 but I lent it to him anyway because I "trusted" him. When I was done with Disc 2 (and 3) I asked for my disc back but he broke it as well. To this day, I have not finished Legend of Dragoon and I don't know how Legend of Dragoon ends. Even now, I refuse to look at Youtube playthrough's because it's too painful to remember. And yes, we're not friends anymore.

*While I was working at Cebu, I blow off steam from a hard day's work by playing at an arcade. Problem was, this said arcade was located 20 minutes away from my workplace and 30 minutes away from my home. That's almost five hours of lost sleep (estimated overall time) but I didn't care. I usually end up going to work a little drowsy by the next day.
*Last time I checked my original FFVII save file, I logged in at almost 198 hours. It took me that long (I was 13...I think.) because I went through all the trouble to level up all my characters above 90 and collect all the game's materia, items and weapons. That's almost 8 days. So if you have a week and day off, THIS is what you should do.
*When I was a kid, I broke my leg due to a freak biking accident. At the hospital, I was told to take a break to let it heal. Everyone was telling me that everything's gonna be alright. All I could ever think about was that I can now finish Final Fantasy 9 for sure. Sweet.
*The PS3 currently has some of the most best games in terms of graphics and gameplay. Games like Killzone in 3D and Call of Duty:Black Ops. Right now, I'm playing...a remake of Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time. Nothing beats the classics. "Big Apple, 3AM!"
*A few years back, I was playing Pokemon Blue on Gameboy Color. I got a Master Ball and used it on a Fearow to "test" if it worked. Six days later, I realized I needed the same freakin ball to catch MewTwo. It was also the day I saw a Gameboy fly.
*I never realized how much of a dick I could be until one time, a fight broke out between two of my closest friends over a game of Tekken 6. Friend1 got a lucky counter hit that obliterated Friend2's health. Blind with rage, Friend1 threw the controller at Friend2's chest and it almost turned into a fistfight. During those tense moments, all I could think about was "My God...Is my controller alright?!"
