@ barnzi
yea well your opinion is wrong -_-
barnzi, you have a pathetic taste in games if that is your opinion..I hope this "Worldwide" tour means its coming to the UK this time !!
I am a great fan of the FF series.And with the games Square Enix has displayed a total mastery of the rpg game development. They have produced masterpieces. I will definitely be going for this show.
barnzi with all due respect i hope you die...just kidding but i'll tell you one thing, i used to have the same opinion as you, until i played FF7 for the first time, the game has almost 10 years. it STILL IS 1 of the best rpg's of all time, in the end it's all a matter of taste nothing more
If it comes to australia im definatly going
