I have a scanned want ad for 3d modelers that includes that eye. The image is
over a meg! :) Dunno when they started working on it, but two years sounds
good. :)

:) I especially love (besides that FMV. I'd tell ya which was my fav, but it
might be a spoiler) the guardian force animations, like Cactrot, Tonberry,
Bahamut, and Diablos. :) For anyone who's seen Neon Genesis Evangelion, d'ya
think Diablos looks like Eva Unit 1? :)
BTW, you'd better get crackin' on FFVIII. FFIX is being released this summer
in Japan, and this October here in the US. ;) Not to mention FFX will arrive
in spring 2001(Japan) and FFXI will arrive *worldwide* in the fall of 2001. :)

Yup! SD2 (Secret of Mana) is one of my favorite SNES games, right behind FFIV.
The soundtrack for Legend of Mana should be arriving here at my house any day
now... :)
> Valkrie Profile (Is that the Robotech one?,
No, this is a Norse themed game. To quote from RPGamer.com:
"Valkyrie Profile will be based on Norse mythology. Players play the role of a
valkyrie set out to collect and raise dead souls. These souls are then sent to
battle the gods in Valhalla."
Anyway, it is a *very* pretty game, and the battles look cool. :)

That's what I heard, too. It did well in Japan, though. :) However, the SF2
has gotten much better reviews. And It has really cool hand-drawn backgrounds!
:)

You know they stopped production of it, right?

Actually, the first one really wasn't too hard. A lot of fun, and the spells
were terrific! :) Too bad I lost my disc... :(
> Chrono Cross, definitely,
Too bad we won't be getting the PSX version of Chrono Trigger, with Akira
Toriyama's excellent anime cutscenes. :(

I really only like RPGs, mostly 'cause they are the one type (besides strategy)
that I don't suck at. :)

Don't forget the PSX2!! :) I want to be buried with all my stuff, on the
off-chance we *can* take it with us when we die! ;)
