Ok So if you’ve been following me for a while, or following the Nightmare Shark Podcast, then you know that there is a heated battle going down between Me and one H.Caldwell Tanner.

It all started back about a year ago.  Well… Almost precisely a year ago… When my oh so perfect self had no real New Years resolution, as I am pretty much the pinnacle of existence…(super lazy).  So I decided, that as I am constantly attempting to write stories for videogames (more specifically rpgs), that I should do my due diligence and complete my research on the Final Fantasy series.

If your lost already, you’re going to stay lost for the rest of the article, so just pretend I’m talking about puppies and ice cream…

For those of you who’re hanging in there, What this meant for me was that I’d have a year to finish Final Fantasies 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 9.  By my calculations, that means that I had already completed 7, 10, 12, and played 11. So this was certainly quite a task I’d given myself.

Luckily for me, most of the older games had made the move to the Game Boy, so I managed to take out a bunch of them during my travels in the early part of the year. (Intercontinental flights FTW).

Unfortunately life (other games) got in the way of my FF completion… And I stalled out for a while after I beat FF4 for DS.  Fortunately my partner in crime Caldy decided that he wanted in on the action.  And now it’s so much more than a New Years Resolution… It’s the…

FINAL FANTASY FINAL COUNTDOWN

Anyways Something about the holidays makes me in the mood for good old fashioned RPGs.  Maybe it’s because I cant stand my family together(probably), but consider this a heads up.  Cause I’m gonna be posting my progress pretty regularly now(hopefully)(cheap way out of making real new content).

I conclude by saying this.

I’m playing FF5 as we speak on GBA.  and all 4 crystals have just shattered in the 1st world….

I can only assume that this means I will have at least 1 other full world to traverse and frustrate me all to hell….

Seriously, i cant seem to beat any boss battle without at least one member lying on the floor dead.  And that means they dont get XP.  and that means they’re weak…. NOOOOOO.
