Yeah, it's going to be a review.
A bit, Lambi. I think maybe cut some bits from the 'beginning of the adventure' section for IX. Seems a bit long winded, really. Good so far though.
And it depends on whether you think that number is too high or too low, Vaude.

So...pub?

[sup]...Banner. *Adds to "Forget this and I'll kill you myself!" list so I don't forget.
I may have it to you about Wednesday, Thursday Lambi.[/sup]

IX also has a nice cutscene. A storm at sea is shown and a lone boat with a girl and a woman is out at sea in the storm. After a minute or two of that, we see our love interest of IX, Garnet, seems to have fallen asleep on a chair as she suddenly wakes up and the storm at sea was a dream. Garnet opens up a window and is in a castle. Doves are seen flying around and the view is changed to the sky, where an airship is flying. We go inside the airship and Zidane is seen going down a pole and into a room. Here we gain control if him in a dark room. He lights a match and we have him light a candle (which for some reason lights the whole room). A chance to name Zidane and then three of his friends, Blank, Marcus and Cinna, enter the room. A little chat and then the first battle of the game. All four of them can steal and it's nice to have four characters to control instead of just one for the first battle. When the battle is over, we see it was their boss, Baku, with a mask on that they had attacked. We go into the room besides this one and a plan is explained to us. A plan to kidnap the princess, Garnet Til Alexandros XVII. The airship is a theater ship, it would seem, and they are about to do a play called 'I Want To Be Your Canary' to distract everyone from the kidnapping. After the plan is explained, we get another FMV cutscene showing the city of Alexandria and the title of this game. The cutscene finishes and we gain control of a black mage called ????. We later find out it's Vivi. Going to the ticket booth, Vivi shows his ticket, which is for the play 'I Want To Be Your Canary', but it seems to be a fake. We go into an alley and Vivi falls on his face, making a nearby signmaker mess up. He finishes putting up a sign and goes away. A rat faced kid comes and wants Vivi to help him. Vivi accepts and the rat kid steals the ladder the signmaker was using. After he goes away with the ladder, we go into a steeple. The rat kid asks us to go up a ladder to check for dangers. As we are about to go up the ladder, a moogle lands on Vivi's head. A little talk with it, the rat kid goes up the ladder and another moogle comes into the steeple, named Stiltzkin, who is about to travel the world. He leaves and the rat kid is impatient because he asked Vivi to hurry up. The moogle asks us if we want to save our game. The moogles act as Save Points in IX.

Yeah, it's good now.

How many pages is it so far then?
[sup]Heh. This is reminding me of my FF X review. How to tell the story without giving away any spoilers. It's harder then it sounds, isn't it?[/sup]

I'm using Notepad.

Don't have anything else, you see?

[sup]No it isn't, seeing as how I said in the beginning that there will be spoilers.[/sup]

Ouch...

So you have no way to grammar check unless you proof read it all by yourself?

[sup]*Looks at warnings at top of review* Ah yes, I see. And I am so doing a FF XIII when I finally get it and eventually finish it. So that'll be a review done and finished by the end of this year, maybe early 2011.[/sup]

Well, my internet crapped out on my three times on the FF X review when I previewed it here.

But I assume you have good internet so it shouldn't be a problem, right?
[sup]Nah, it'll be fine.[/sup]

I have somewhat good internet so yeah.

Think I should make the WARNING something more noticable?

[sup]Seeing as how YOU didn't notice it.[/sup]

Yep.

May I suggest either bolding it or [HEADING=2]using the h2 tag for the word WARNING?[/HEADING]

[sup]Hey, it's 1.30am, I'm sort of tired, have an eye infection and also hungry.
All of these figure into the fact I missed the warning.[/sup]

Lambi reviews:
Final Fantasy VII vs. IX

Right then. This is my very first review.
I decided to make a Vs. review for no particular reason. (Other then to distract myself from FF X <_<)
This is just for fans of Final Fantasy or just RPGs in general, so leave your hate at the door or just don't come in. You have been warned.
Any TL;DRs will be delt with immedietly. (Something I learned from Sassafrass)
[HEADING=2]WARNING:[/HEADING] There WILL be spoilers, so either leave now or enjoy the review.
On to the review.
[sup]I'll cut you some slack. For now...[/sup]

Yeah, that's good.

So, are you writing it at this very moment or have you stopped for tonight?

[sup]Thank you.
Everything I've done today has been off an hours sleep. I'm surprised I haven't flipped out and got wrathed, honestly.[/sup]

I stopped tonight.

Don't want to fry my brain, you see?

[sup]Yeah, I'm a little surprised too. Don't you feel sleepy?[/sup]

Nah, that's never a good idea.

Unless you like fried brains?

[sup]Remarkably, no. I feel fine, just a little hungry and my left eye itches a bit.[/sup]

As far as I can remember not much.
Lambi posted a preview of his review and we exchanged banter and what not.

Sounds good, huh?
