It works!

I'm playing FFVII on my PS emulator. :)
Oh, the fun!
It's been a while, polygon-ish Sephiroth. There's something so nostalgic about playing this old game. It reminds you of how you used to think it was AWESOME.. until Crisis Core came along and dazzled you with it's graphics.

I might attempt at FFVIII (didn't like it cause of the 'love') and even FFIX (which I never bothered to play).
I wonder if the rumours are true. I hope it is.. I really wanna see a remade version of FFVII.
If they could remake FFIV for DS, surely they can do the same for PS3? I would pay 200 bucks per blu-ray nonsense if they would! I WOULD.
But, I wonder if they'll change anything...
I remember being surprised when playing the DS version of FFIV because they kept the old translation of Tellah shouting at Edward (the useless bard).
I guess the moment Tellah shouted "You spoony bard!" in the SNES (was it?) version, it became an instant FF classic. It had to be kept. ("You spoony bard" is like the FF equivalent of the oh-so-famous "All your base are belong to us"... Japanese translations that just didn't make it)
I felt kinda sad for the spoony bard, though.. apparently, he was voted most useless FF character. Uselessness aside, he's quite adorable...-y dumb.
(I wonder how Edge fared in that poll)
I found this extremely cool.
I love Midgar (and is ironically, very similar to my dissertation subject.. oh dear, perhaps I've been playing too much). They had this model made to scale for some anniversary celebration thing. The cool part is sector 6 (the section with the hole in it) was left incomplete because during the first game, sector 6 wasn't completed. In fact, in the game, at the part where you have to reassemble the Midgar model in the Shinra building, you'd notice sector 6 was also incomplete. I am gonna model this on 3DMax one day... just you wait.

Just some really funny and random Star Wars pictures I found.
They know how to make a good joke out of Star Wars, I'll tell ya that.

GP tonight!
Fisichella on pole and Trulli is behind him.
What a surprise.
Honestly, I wonder if Fisichella 'collected dead chickens' to get there. (Translate the words in the ' ' to Chinese to understand)
Hamilton is in 12th position (I think) and Kovaleinen is two spots behind.
Rosberg is somewhere in the middle, I forgot! (He is fifth so often, it scares me)
