Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children (Two-Disc Special Edition) (2005)

Final Fantasy VII - Advent Children (Two-Disc Special Edition)

Amazon.com
The question facing any viewer of the Japanese CG feature Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children is: do you have to know the games on which it’s based in order to understand the film? And the answer is: it certainly helps. But even complete novices (i.e., most parents) in the Final Fantasy world will find some entertainment in its wealth of fantasy-based action, and the animation never fails to astonish. Picking up two years after an epic battle between the forces of good (represented by brooding soldier Cloud) and evil (Cloud’s former general, Sephiroth), FFVII opens in the devastated city of Midgard, whose youthful occupants suffer from a ghastly disease known as Geostigma. A trio of brothers arrives with what appears to be a cure for the plague, but their gesture conceals a more sinister purpose: to revive Sephiroth and bring about the end of the world. Cloud and his companions must once again rise to the occasion to stop the siblings and the revived Sephiroth (more…)

TIDE OF IRON CAMPAIGN EXPANSION NORMANDY BOARD GAME

TIDE OF IRON CAMPAIGN EXPANSION NORMANDY BOARD GAME

June 6th, 1944 marked a red-letter date in the Second World War. Better known as D-Day, the 6th marked the beginning of Operation Overlord, the Allied battle plan coordinating a major offensive against German forces at Normandy, France. Here, on the beaches of Normandy, the Allies would either gain the foothold they needed to bring down the German war machine, or suffer a devastating defeat.

The Normandy Campaign Expansion expands the Tide of Iron base game by allowing players to recreate Allied beach landings against fortified German defenses. Players can also push past the beaches into the bocage, where soldiers fight in the dense hedgerows of the countryside.

Micro Mutants: Evolution

Micro Mutants: Evolution

Too small to be seen, alien insects invaded our planet long ago. Now they are ready to start a war for world domination. But on Earth there are forces who can fight back on the aliens’ own microscopic battlefield!

It’s time to join the fight and protect the Earth! Micro Mutants is a revolutionary (literally!) game that combines skill, strategy, and luck in a quick and exciting way. It’s a game totally unlike any you’ve seen before, unless maybe you’ve seen one like it before, in which case it’s like that.

In Micro Mutants, players roll dice, flip horrible little mutant bugs like tiddlywinks, and unleash devastating special powers (hopefully at the enemy!). It’s the ONLY dexterity- strategy- miniatures- science- fiction- game- about- bugs worth your time!

Amazon.com Review
This Squaresoft-sanctioned book on one of the most highly anticipated console games ever does not disappoint.

Those less fortunate can at least take solace in–or further whet their appetites with–the hundreds of beautiful glossy screen shots that fill each chapter.

With the Official Final Fantasy VII Strategy Guide gamers have the opportunity to save their world from an evil corporation which is siphoning off energy from the planet. Complete walkthroughs and all the maps help players navigate the game. Character descriptions, complete lists of items, monsters and magic and the revelation of all the secrets help players defeat the evil corporation. The ONLY Guide with COMPLETE Coverage (more…)

Final Fantasy IX

Final Fantasy IX

Amazon.com PreviewTo read our interview with the Final Fantasy IX creators, click here. As with the other games in the series, Final Fantasy IX has the ability to grab your attention from the time you fire it up until the last boss is put down. Previous entries into the game’s lineage took a more dramatic, cinematic route to do what a role-playing game does best–tell a story. That style led to some complaints from headstrong fans and role-playing gamers alike. In response to this, while not sacrificing what new technology they’ve built into the series, SquareSoft has backtracked a bit. To put it simply, they’ve gone back to their roots while forging ahead. When we last left the Final Fantasy characters, Princess Garnet was starting to break out of her shell and put to rest the notion that she was a snob. The kidnapping attempt by Zidane, oddly enough, started a few new friendships. Story elements continuously roll on, never leaving you to wonder for too long. (more…)
