Watch a Chocobo get MURDERED in FF: Type 0
If you fancy getting traumatized this morning, watch the above video. It's the opening moments of Final Fantasy: Type 0 and it will tear away everything that you've ever held as good because a Chocobo gets totally f*cked up in it. It's been a while since I've seen such a bloody and dismal scene in Final Fantasy, but the fact that it goes so far as to kill a Chocobo is bound to ruin a few mornings. This is just how the game starts, too. By the end of it, I hope they've got Moogles strung up by their balls and sliced open so their intestines are dribbling over their screaming faces. In all seriousness, with Thanksgiving around the corner there's no more festive a time to shoot a giant bird in its head. Om nom nom! Did you know?

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)It was great until I realized that epic song was called "Bump of Chicken". Yeah, I just can't take that seriously. "Man, I'm in the mood for some epic 'Bump of Chicken' right now! Throw that on with some 'One Winged Angel'!" @Meliagaunt those are several cut-scenes spliced together. There's gameplay in between each, you can tell because there's too much of a jump in story between several of the cut scenes. @Aequitas
