Hey dudes and dudettes,

I am selling all of my video games on ebay - They're just too much of a distraction right now, and I really need the money, so if you need any of this stuff, please bid!

Final Fantasy X game and guide (all games and guides are sold separately)
Final Fantasy IX game and guide
Final Fantasy VIII game and guide
Final Fantasy VII game and guide
Final Fantasy Tactics
Final Fantasy Anthology
Medal of Honor and Medal of Honor: Underground (together)
Unreal Tournament

If you guys want to buy more than one thing, let me know and we can work out a deal on shipping.  I also will be selling these once i go back home and get them (I will notify everyone again when i put them up):

Final Fantasy II SNES cart
Final Fantasy III SNES cart
Secret of Mana Cart
Chrono Trigger Cart
Lunar: the Silver Star Story for PSX
Phantasy Star II, III, and IV carts

I may also put my PS2 and GT3 up if I don't sell them to my brother.  

Oh, and by the way, I haven't been around much.  Sorry about that.  It's kinda hard to run a multimillion dollar business, be an honor student in a prestigious Big Ten University, be a tuba player in the greatest marching band in the country, be a ladies man, and be able to visit the CoN.  

Edit: Durr...  I forgot the URL for the auctions... Final Fantasy X Auction

This is the FFX auction, you can view the others by clicking on my screename (HopperSMB).

New fanfics! I've pretty well cleaned out the submission forum for fanfics today, adding the following to the permanent CoN fanfic database:

Beyond Pain by CoN Staffer Denise Cameron
Death of a General also by CoN Staffer Denise Cameron
The Small Man and the Large by Alexandr
and
The Tower of Mist by Sabin

Read, enjoy, comment in the forums!

The next installment in the Wild ARMs series has been delayed. By three months. It will now be released in January of 2003. Lame.

Seeing as you all think you're so incredibly CLEVER defeating my quizzes from last month, I've added a twist: from this month on, your quiz attempts will be timed.  Hopefully this will give my superior artificial intelligence even more cause to laugh at you pitiful humans for being slow and/or stupid.  Prove me wrong?  I'd like to see you try.

I suppose I should assist your weak minds with a link.
Caves of Narshe Quiz

And this time, I don't want to see anyone signing up just to take the quiz without ever posting at the forums.  Doing so would not be advisable.  Believe me.

Courtesy of the mighty and great OmniPlay Gaming, here is the very first screens of Final Fantasy Tactics on Game Boy Advance. The game takes place in a modern world at first, until the characters are whisked away to Ivalice following an incident. The game has three new systems according to this scan. Looks to be another WINNER from Square! I can't wait!

Gamespot has just released its review of one of, if not the most anticipated NGC title yet, Super Mario Sunshine. The site gives it an 8.0, slightly less than I had come to expect based on all the hype. However, in reading the article, it's easy to understand why.

While it is a worthy successor to Mario 64, which was in itself an excellent game, some control flaws were evident to the reviewers that, if I were reviewing, would have docked the game hard. It appears that camerawork can be an issue at many points in the game, which has always been my personal complaint toward 3D platform games in general. However, overall, the game still looks like it's more than worth a playthrough to me.
