on Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride
Jan 25th
waaahhh!! Tim Burton’s at it again! loving the current trailer of Corpse Bride. it so reminds me of Nightmare Before Christmas. i love that film. it’s such not a Christmas film since it’s dark. and now, Burton’s doing another animated movie for this Halloween! that one’s definitely in my to-watch list this coming 2005. plus it has Johnny Depp and his voice is just hawt (even though you don’t get too hear much oh him talking except in the start and end of trailer and the gasps in between XDDD)
on Final Fantasy I
Jan 24th
just finished playing Final Fantasy I from the GBA version of Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Soul. and you know what? i enjoyed this one better than Final Fantasy X. what i really loved about FFI is it’s simplicity. simple plot: 4 friends setting out from Cornelia looking for a way to restore the light in the four crystals. simple battle system. simple music… (scrap that, music from nobuo uematsu is never simple. XP) simple characters. simple… well, just simple everything. oh and what makes it better than FFX? no crappy voice actors. XDDDD i don’t know maybe it’s just me or maybe i was expecting too much from FFX. but yeah. as of now, FFI ranks higher than FFX in my books. maybe i’ll just finish or replay my FFX save game and see if my opinions change. let’s just see.
and now, to play my much awaited game: kingdom hearts: chain of memories. thanks goes out to my aunt and uncle for buying me this game. one thing i love about relatives from the US coming home for a visit: you can get them to buy you almost anything. actually they already have some pasalubong (gifts from abroad) for me: fruits basket volume 3 and 4 (since i have 1 and 2) and spiderman dvd. but even with that, they still treated us to some shopping so i grabbed KH: CoM and Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap. that would be my first Zelda game i’m ever going to play. can’t wait to play that too. but first have to play KH, then a choice between FFII or Zelda.
oh and lastly, check this one out: squidi. a webcomics of pixel stuff. pixels 0wnz me right now. X3
