now that i think about it.. Ninja Gaiden should be getting a Ryu Hayabusa pic..

and if Ryu is stronger than his games (way stronger), then people would vote him simply by the pic by Duck Hunt gets SFF'd.

I wish there was an ignore function for any argument involving MyWorldIsCrono and Blizzard crap. My god, there's like 10 pages worth of nonsense that I had to skip over - and the contest starts tonight! The hell.

This match pic is making me wanna change my bracket to DK instead of Punch-Out, but I don't want to make a change so late.


Hit message detail in one of his posts. Presto.

Yes the updater will be working. I'm probably going to sleep but I'll set my alarm.

You can't ignore other people's responses though, and I don't like using an ignore function anyway. Seems disrespectful or something.

I don't really use the ignore function but when this topic gets unreadable I'll probably bust it out at some point.

unfortunately I can't control others responding to the same dumb post over and over so it doesn't do much good.

FF6 is a game that just about ever FF fan likes.

Can the same be said for FF12? That should give you your answer.

Yeah, that's what happens when we have to fit the game's title in it

For some it just looks like a little weird.

For others it really looks off.
