My Little World10

i meant to write this 2 days ago but im a lazy arse

basically the soham murderer ian huntley tried to kill himself the other day, and everyone was outraged at him trying to escape justice by taking the easy way out, this is pretty much how i view those types of suicide (i thought he'd already done it tbh) but then i remembered what my grandad always said - "they should be hung", the old eye for an eye idea

im not here to add to the argument for the death penalty, personally ive somehow come out as an adult feeling its better to throw em in a cell for 50 years and let them suffer rather than trust in a few religious guesses about hell

so where did this change occur?? the elderly generation who grew up with the death penalty would be the most likely answer, whereas most people under 40 wouldn't really have had that sort of punishment issued in their life - that was simple

i just find it odd how one generations views can differ completely from anothers (except when its on pensions and denture prices)

note: i dunno how big the soham murders are nationwide as soham is about 10 mins down the road from me it was kind of big here and generally sparks quite a lot of interest in the area whenever its mentioned

ok im now trying to be naughty, ive now completed final fantasy 1 and 2, the ending of 2 sucked again but what was i expecting? but to continue my mission i now need ff3 - the problem is the game was never (officially) released outside japan and ff3 in america was actually ff6 (which i do have but my snes sucks and i want to find a decent one online)

ideally i want to find an english translation of ff3 but i found out that theyve remade it, while obviously i want to play the original version as thats the whole point behind my mission (to become a true ff-er, not just starting at ff7 onwards) but the graphics and gameplay of a 1991 game would irritate me anyway, unfortunately ff3 hasnt been rereleased in english yet, but it should be very soon i think im gonna have to skip ff3 for time being

so my decision is to either play ff3 (which is actually 6 - those yanks really are pushy arent they) or to find the remake of ff4 and leave the true f3 for now, god knows wat to do about ff5, i havent even read up on its remakes and such

just to make me feel better - these are snes games, i dont condone the use of illegal emulators when it comes to modern consoles (playstation onwards) so i might buy some playstation rereleases as i have a ps2, but when it comes to ancient games i think its a good thing as the consoles arent around any more (bizarrely they have risen in price dramatically as collectors items - where did i put my old snes??) and theres little other option but to play a rom on the pc, while technically illegal theres little other option
