  • At first, I thought this was about some MMO called "Final Fantasy Heroes: Abuse Pheonix" being taken down.
  • Ah, Phoenix Downs. The item I never use because there's always a spell that does the job better.
  • Can you be tickled to death with a Pheonix Down feather? Life's greatest mysteries.
  • Haha, that's neat.

  • surely a Hyper would be more addictive

  • Kind of funny. I remember actually using Phoenix Downs. Been clean since 2006. (Guess the FF game that came out then.)
  • Saw this on the Facebook feed. Glad I checked it out.

  • Well that was stupid. Ill never get that 4 minutes back

  • I love cracked but they totally ripped off rooster teeth in one of their videos. Its the moral dillema video.

    What we really need to bring attention to is the white hair disease, its a form of cancer that inflicts most people with too much awesomness.....but sometimes it makes the victim becomes ridiculously lame and unlikable. Help these people.

  • I prefer Skooma much more. I imagine their like Jagar bombs on crack.

  • Haha!! That is awesome!!

  • Well....that's unexpected but somewhat interesting at the same time.

  • "Or simply dies more than other children"

  • Katie Willert as Tifa? Sign me up.

  • That was retarded, I like the concept but there characters and costumes were horrible. Normally I dont mind a good FF spoof but geez put some effort into it.
  • lolololololololololololol!!!!!!!!!!

  • Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought that Phoenix Down only brought you back from being KOed, not death. That's why one would not have worked on Aeris.

    Sorry for the double post.
  • This was an informative video I will keep my eyes peeled.

  • That's pretty good.
