I agree about the playstation controller. I've used a lot of different controllers and I have to say that one is the best for me(Although before it came around I was rather partial to the sega genesis). Most consoles try to over do their controllers and it just makes it more confusing to figure out, and half of the buttons don't get used. I think the Xbox has just way too many buttons, and they're all over the place. The psx controller keeps it pretty simple and it all wrapped in a comfortable little package that's easy to wrap your hands around.

Yeah, you're right the PS controller is great and has a classic visual (is my favourite indeed), that of Xbox is too extravagant, same for the one of GC, but that one of Wii is interesting too. But I thought this thread was about FF, and not about the PS or controllers.

Actually, I'm pretty shocked that the Wii is still around. I had fully predicted it to be the next power glove/virtual boy.

I like Final Fantasy XII the most. Well, Final Fantasy XIII for PS3 (& X360), the next gen game is really good, graphic, gameplay, everything, only the PS3 is missing ÷)

Wow, wow, the Cloud's sword! I want it, I want it! What? Can't I have it? Sucks...

I've seen other FF sword replicas but they weren't as good

It's called the First Tsurugi:



The First Tsurugi consists of one main blade (Vigilante), one hollow blade that serves as the front edge (Vendetta), two identical (but asymmetrically opposite) blades that form the back (Merciless and Avenger), and two identical (also asymmetrically opposite) smaller blades that attach to the sides (Ascalon and Sidewinder). The swords of the First Tsurugi in its disassembled state are usually stored in racks inside the special compartments (three racks per compartment) on both sides of Cloud's motorcycle, the Fenrir. The First Tsurugi, much like the Buster Sword, is primarily a crushing weapon.

yup, when Nomura showed it off, we only got bad video, but there was Japanese subtitles.. and since the kanji for "Tsurugi" and "Sword" are identical, people thought that that was his "First Sword".....lol

It doesn't have an official name, during production of the movie, the makers called it "Fusion Sword" so that's the closest we have to an official name..

And you people are slow. I discovered this online years ago.... it was $1200 then...
I'd buy it A.S.A.P. if I was you, once Advent Children Complete gets a release date, I expect the price will go back up..

I wish they would continue the Advent Chidren Play Arts character figures. They only made two sets and I really wanted Yazoo, Loz, and Rude. If they can make fancy, thousand dollar swords that hardly anyone can buy, why can't they continue making twenty-five dollar action figures that almost everyone can/will buy?
