Not that I'm complaining, but...

Is it weird that my ISP hasn't billed me since I signed up with them? I supposedly had 3 months free, but I switched in May. Checked on their website, and apparently I owe them nothing, so it's not that the payment isn't going through or anything.

*hopes his noticing doesn't mean the free internet goes away*

In other news, I think I'm nearly finished the story mode in Dissidia now. Still liking it... while the story itself's pretty much just self-indulgent wank and the dialog's corny as all hell, the voice acting is spot on, the characters all have nicely distinct fighting styles and the gameplay's good for a fighting game - the RPG elements make it a lot less of a button masher than most. Favourite fighters at the moment are probably Bartz, Zidane, David BowieEmperor Mateus and Kefka, and I'm really relieved about the latter... when I first tried him his attack style was driving me barmy but now I know what I'm doing it turns out he rules as much as he should. Sephiroth and Cloud are pretty much meh, which didn't see coming with the amount Squeenix seems to love FF7. :O

So yeah... probably going to get a lot more life out of this one. :>

omg

Was looking for something and Google linked me to the Penny Arcade forum, where I happened upon this:

FFVIII is like Japanese Harry Potter.

Squall is a dark-haired, orphaned teen with a scar on his face that goes to a magical school where he meets his blond-haired dickbag rival (who has two moderately retarded henchmen). He also has a group of friends that consist of one mildly retarded boy and a bookish girl who is basically way smarter than everyone at everything. They meet a bunch of other teens who are varying degrees of useless and add them to their super duper teen save the world squad to fight the big evil magical baddie and save the day.

...Alright so Selphie, Irvine and Rinoa don't have direct Potter analogues but Squall is totally Harry, Seifer is Draco, Fujin and Raijin are Crabbe and Goyle, Quistis is Hermione and Zell is Ron.

I have way too much time on my hands today.

So adding to this, Irvine's Neville, Selphie's Luna and Rinoa's NaginiGinny... IT'S ALL SO CLEAR NOW :O

...*dead*
