Meh I don't think he cared.

He didn't even know why he bought the thing. o.o

Originally it wasn't mine, since my brother actually paid for it.

But he gave it to me for Christmas. (b'')b

because I begged him too

'Kay, so you just made yourself sound that much more incredibly lucky. If I tried that with my brother, he'd probably tell me to get a job...which I have, but I'm not the type to drop half a thousand dollars on a system. XD; J-Rock and manga are my vice~!
 
My brother's a bum who could have had a job about 2 years ago but noooo....
He needs to buy me a PS3. There's a conspiracy going on, I can tell D<

But yeah, despite the fact the Final Fantasy games are gonna be on the PS3, I doubt I'll be getting it any time soon :/
 
Ryoutarou; My brother owes me money anyways because he takes money out of my bank.

Oh wait.. That's his money...

Chikara; That's why I got a PS3 instead of a Wii. Final Fantasy = <3 8D

I missed out playing the others when they came out on PS2 because I bought a Gamecube instead of a PS2. >_>;; Had to wait a couple of years after to get a PS2, then the PS3 came out. D:

I'm sensing you're one of those people who doesn't actually have much money to her name. XD

As good as the Final Fantasy games are, I don't think I would get a system just for one franchise, eventually that's going to get tiring and you'd be screwed if you can't find any other games that hold your interest for too long.

I guess so, I don't work since I go to school and all. And my parents pay for all my school fees. And I want a job that I'll actually like. D:

Oh and I didn't by PS3 just for FF, I like alot of games on Playstation, like Dynasty Warriors and Samurai warriors and Devil May Cry and.. *list goes on*

I don't like much Nintendo games anyways. :x

Schools here are so expensive that you've got to work (and my mom's not really in any position to fund my education). I'm already in a job that I enjoy immensely though, I was thinking about heading into school for it, but I figured I ended up taking a different course.

Ah, that's good. I just got back into gaming after a five year or so hiatus, I went with a PS2 a few months back and got DMC and both Kingdom Hearts, they've kept me pretty entertained so far. I'll probably pick up Dynasty Warriors one of these days since I'm still so far off fromf getting a PS3.
 
Schools here are expensive too. Well not when I was in high school and college.

On the other hand, now I have to pay $700 for a class that only goes for 1 semester. My sister paid for it, but she used her credit card, so when it was time to pay for the net, they cut us off because she reached her credit card limit. D:

I haven't actually played any of the Dynasty Warriors game, except for #6.

I started off with Samurai Warriors first and that was pretty good and it's like the same as Dynasty Warriors. Then I got Warriors Orochi which was a combine of the 2 games and that was really awesome. ;D
 
Schools were still expensive here when I was in high school, but it was easier to get some form of a loan that wouldn't end up financially screwing you.

That's about how much it costs for a set of courses here, I probably wouldn't be able to use my credit card for them though, my credit limit's about $200 less than what I need for the classes I want.

I've played Dynasty Warriors a few times, but this was all years ago when I probably couldn't even remember what the heck I was doing.

I've heard Warriors Orochi is really good...and just about the only reason I know that is because my favorite band did the theme song to the most recent game. XD;
 
We have this thing called Youth Allowance, which is a program where the government gives you money if you're going to school and your school fees are cut in half. But you can only apply for it if you parents don't earn a certain amount of money. Alot of my friends have it, but I don't because my parents earn alot since they have their own business. D:

Warriors Orochi is a really good game, even though all the story lines are pretty much the same. But yay for bashing button games. 8D But usually I play those kind of games with my brother or nephew, I hate playing games by myself. ;; Unless it's one player of course.

Yeah...we don't have anything near that awesome. XD; My mom doesn't have a job, so I thought we could get some help from the schools, but nah, gotta pay for it all out of my own pocket. I could probably get a loan, but I really don't feel like having to pay off an insane interest rate later on when I'm done with school. Which is why I'm working. Though I think I'd probably still work even if I was already in school, gets you some good life and real world experience.

I've heard that too, it was in a lot of the comments on YouTube for videos from the most recent game. Though I wouldn't mind, button mashers are indeed a thing of pure greatness. XD

God school is such a hassle. Why does it cost so freakin' much?!

I agree! It's pretty much like they only want to get money from us.

I go to a private school and they charge us loads each year in comparison to the state government funded schools. And they usually overcharge us on a lot of things too. D:

Private schools are overrated, (cost-wise) i admit they do provide a slightly better education, but at the cost of an extra 10,000 dollars? (here where i live a private school will cost you that much o.o) that's why i go to a public school, In my opinion it's not worth that expense, i know many people who have perfectly successful lives that went to a public school. Not that i am discriminating against people who do go to private schools.

Over here, private schooling is also about $10,000 more than public schooling. To be honest, I don't really find private schooling much different to public schooling. It seems to be similar except for the number of people that attend it. And also, it's apparently easier to pass the national exams if you attend a public school as they mark less harsh, or so the rumour goes.

Well i guess it depends on what school you go to really, some can be easy and some can be hard, And yes they are a lot more harsh at private schools, i don't know what happened to them in their childhood, but it must have been pretty bad DDx, but i guess the government want more children to pass the exams and give them constructive critcism, instead of just failing them.
 
I don't really know much about the difference in public and private schools.

I should ask my friend one day about it, since he goes to private school. ;P

But alot of kids I've seen, who've went to private school before, and when they leave, they're so.. Rebellious. o.o;

It's something I find quite odd and to which I don't understand.

I guess they might have been forced to go to a private school because of their parents and when they leave, they let themselves go free.
 
I think it's kinda interesting how all of you have to spend so much, when all you need for online school is a place to fax, a labtop, some pencils, & paper =]
So my semester isn't near 700, yadayada, more like $75. (bunch of snakes to eat during tests)

On the discussion of private and public, they are quite different I hear but I don't really see uch of a difference, though online school is nothing like either of them. *shrugs*

Gotta love it. ;D
 
Where I live, we don't pay for school. Nobody does really. Every kid is obliged to go to school and... well ok, we pay by taxes. But that's the same for everybody. There are private schools also though. I don't really know if we have to pay there but I certainly don't think we have to.

Pft, in my old public school, we weren't even allowed to collect money in our class to go on a trip in our last year there. It was "unfair to the poor families" who couldn't afford spending extra money on their children.
 
Here we have public schools, but I go to a private one. Mainly because of the quality. The public schools around here are really crappy, compared with mine D:

This should be solved soon, because that's a disadvantage for the people who doesn't have enough money (it's 300 € per month... 450 $ I think).
