List things you could pen rants about, gaming-related or otherwise, and see if we have any common hates. As for me:
PSP Go (stupid idea, no way it's profitable)
Soul Calibur IV (letdown, massive drop in quality over III, shockingly bad online)
Kingdom Hearts (the first one. Why does it have such a massive fanbase?)
Playstation Network store
Novelty DS and Wii games
Bethesda Softworks' QA department

All valid points. The only new transformers I like are the ones based on the movies. Except the jets. The jets suck.

I can tolerate the new cartoon slightly better than the movies. And when I say slightly, I mean slightly like the way that a tube worm is slightly like an animatronic Tyrannosaurus.

Yes the movies where horrible. I like the toys they spawned. The new animated series has it's moments, but most of the toys based on it are too streamlined looking. Especially Bumblebee and Optimus.

I've got many a good rant, but one that I love going on and on about is about this news story:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orpgUPNS ... re=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orpgUPNSRPI&feature=related)
Or, more specifically, how ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY IDIOTIC IT IS.
That video has inspired without a doubt my favorite rant. I've only given it a couple times, but every time, it's been pure gold.
Oh, and how much I hate Crisis Core: Final Fantasy. That's a good rant too.

That's the problem. Who knows? At the end of the PSX version they wanted you to assume she did kill him. In WotL however they chose to change it up and now they want you to assume he survived.
I hate that.

Poetic justice: Delita dies and is replaced by a less angsty and benevolent body double the way Ovelia was.
Sick twist: Delita and Ovelia die. Then Ramza and Alma come back out of the shadows to take their place. As an added bonus Ramza and his sister continue the incestuous tendencies of many real world royalty. Eeewww! ^_^

The original "Ovelia" died shortly after she was born they never say how long or which, but they hint that it was still while the original Ovelia was young, than any remotely similar looking girl would do the trick.
A "Poetic Justice" in this case would be either Delita and Ramza dying Or Delita and Ramza surviving. It's one or the other really. A body double for a grown man who looked Pretty unique unto the FFT world, I couldn't see it done.
