Speaking of companies being totally ignorant but pretending they know what they talk about, only to find that you can't fake knowledge...

Indeed, anyone who knows about the whole sorted history of FF games can tell these guys just read an FAQ for "FF2" (called that back during the SNES days here in America as we all know) and did no extra research beyond that. Having watched G4 a few times myself, I have to say that entire network is totally clueless on EVERYTHING about what we gamers want.

Some of you might be lucky(?) enough to get the TV channel G4, an entire channel about video games. Well today they did a brief review of FF Origins. Five minutes at the end of a show, but hey, better than nothing. Some highlights were seeing them have a White Mage cast HARM on Garland for some reason, and seeing a black belt getting killed by an Ogre. :) They also reviewed FF2j which is also part of FFO for those of you who haven't bought it (yet). Apparently they believe that Cecil, Rosa, and Tellah are among the characters in FF2j. Apparently G4's writers have also never played FF2 or FF4 in their lives.
