final fantasy: the best thing ever, reason #2
written by morrison on 02/01/07

that big ass sword.

final fantasy VII teaches us that there’s no such thing as overkill. want to scare off some harmless shinra soldiers who are simply doing their job by protecting the lab you’re breaking into? well, why not mutilate their bodies into a goulash with the buster sword? i mean, after all…you start the game off with a sword that’s twice your size, and that — let’s face it — rowdy roddy piper himself probably doesn’t have the strength to wield. so use it!

around this time, i finally caught on to the oversized clothing craze. that’s right…a good two or so years after all those home improvement kids started wearing their huge flannel shirts. thank you, cloud strife, for helping me catch up with the times. and for making me buy that lifesize barbie. wait — i mean…bar-b-q. yes… yes.

i couldn’t find any good videos of the sword, so here’s another “great” music video that someone made with clips from the FFVII movies and the song “mr. lonely” by akon and bobby vinton. could life get any better?
