Hey, I'm Aston.
I have 1 or 2 guys I regularly chat FF related stuff with but i'm always worried that perhaps I bore them with my rantings sometimes so I thought i'd look for a FF Forum. I was a member of one before which was fun (although I can't remember which one) so I decided to give it another go.

In terms of my FF 'career' as such;
I started with FFVII which I completed - although I never saw the full ending FMV due to a power cut. Typical.
then carried on through VIII - reaching Ultimecias castle
IX - I know I got past Terra but can't remember much past then.
X - Defeated Sin
XII - Fell out of love with this quite quickly; after 1st Esper.
XIII - Beat some giant head guy (bartholemeus or something?) before trading it in. Not a fan of this one at all; far too linear and just didn't feel right for me..

before going back and playing through
FFI, V & VI although I didn't get very far in any of these. Also completed FF Tactics Advanced, played alot of Crisis Core and a small amount of DoCerberus.

So, I guess i've not actually achieved much in terms of completing them but i'm a massive fan, especially of the music and Triple Triad.

Other things about me; I'm currently revising (procrastinating writing this intro) for my final year exams; I study business and marketing @ Lincoln.
I'm a big Manchester United fan and spend alot of my time playing other games; mainly strategy games on Steam (feel free to add me; iSmiff) such as Civ5 Tropico4, Football Manager, Age Of Empires etc and am looking in to getting involved with The Third Age: Total War Mods.

Not sure what else to say really; any questions i'd be happy to answer them! I guess I just browse now..
Feel free to follow me on twitter @AJSmiff . I rant about a quite broad range of stuff :p.

Kweh!
 
Yay! I love ranting about things too. Though I'm not big on ranting about FF (or any games in general really). Ahh.... Anyway, welcome to the forums! I hope you have a great time here. :)
 
A ranter! Hide! :|

Welcome to the forums! Quite a lot of rants both game wise and forum wise go on here, so I'm sure you'll fit in in one of our sections! :D Also, nice name, Aston. :D
 
I would like to welcome you to our humble abode! Snacks are on the left, wine on the right. Just...don't go for the peanuts. The dirty guests haven't been washing their hands lately :sir:
 
Welcome to the forums, Aston. Procrastinating is okay, sometimes it helps you think clearly afterwards. ;)

Have a good day to you, and do let us know if you need anything.

Thanks! Ha, I'm surprised you didn't make one of the 3 jokes I hear on a weekly basis; can you guess what they are?

Welcome. :dave:

Appreciate it!

Youl be sad to see Fergie leaving then i take it?

Welcome ;)

Devastated! I think Moyes is a perfect fit though. Thanks :)

Haha. Lucky for me I hate nuts then. The smell make me sick; is that strange?

I appreciate that! Thanks. ( I hope you're right! 3 Exams next week. Ouch)
 
iSmiff ...Next week? On second thought...maybe you shouldn't take my advice. :hmmm:

You should go study soon. :)





But be sure to come back in-between breaks or something.
 
Welcome dude. As long as you rant about FFXIII (I refuse to play it) you are more than welcome to be one of the cool kids on FFF.
You might have noticed not all members are cool here.

Especially those that dont wash their hands and touch the peanuts :ness:

You sound just like my conscience.

Its a pity we dont make our football players as good as we do our managers :(

Aye! Can't argue with you there. I do love Dazza Fletcher though; such a shame about his illness.

Thanks, i'll try my best! Oh man, don't get me started on XIII. I had such high hopes and the first hour was actually OK.. and then it went drastically downhill.. At least I know the FFX Remaster can't disappoint me... I wouldn't be so excited for it if New style PS3s were backwards compatible. My PS3 would get so much more usage if it was!
 
Feel free to rant about XIII, I will be the lead vocalist and you can be my chorus :ohoho: ...and hello :ari:
 
Welcome welcome.


I'll try not hold the United fandom against you(Comes from a LFC-supporting family)


Also, the XIII rants are perfectly fine. I really hated it myself, so I relate.

HEATHEN! You must love this whole Fergie situation then? Both Everton and United weaker in one fell swoop.

Thanks though :) You too Rapture
 
Welcome, welcome! A ranter, yay, I'm not the only to make extravagant tl;dr posts then. I think you'll quite like it here, minus the peanut snatchers. ^_^
