    One of my favorite memories was watching this at EB Games for the Final Fantasy XII midnight release. It was playing on the TV there while we all waited for midnight to hit. If anyone wants this video on physical, it is included in the FFXII Collector’s Edition for PS2.

    After recording this video, the narrator went on to free Richter from Dracula's evil spell and foil his father's evil schemes. Unfortunately, his crusade to keep people from putting PlayStation black discs in CD players failed miserably.

      @@mpoadmin2978 I like all three games. The FF7 materia system is better than the FF6 magicite system, but the FF5 job system is better than both of them. FF6 still has the best story, though.

      FF5 is definitely one of the most exciting games in the series in terms of raw gameplay;
      the whole game feels like a giant playground with lots of cool stuff to discover everywhere.
      Also, remember the 12 sealed Legendary Weapons, and what it felt like to walk around and look at them and feel excited about being able to use them some day? That's what I am talking about!

    I really do appreciate that Square is willing to experiment with every installment of FF. They don't just play it safe, stick with what works, and release the same games with different skins. Sometimes, their experiments work (FF5's job system) and sometimes they don't (FF8's Draw system).

    Very hard to argue with people's points on here when their views are 98% driven by nostalgia. It's almost impossible to beat someone's sentimental connection to something with logic. I liked all of the Final Fantasy games, so it doesn't bother me. That includes 13, and 12, though I see why people don't like them.

    • @rodrigonascimento1800
      @rodrigonascimento1800 10 лет назад +3

      well I agree with you people on here are either driven by nostalgia, which isn't really a problem, but some of them are just complete asses and just say "fuck everyone else my opinion is the truth". I have yet to play all Final Fantasy games (at least the main games i plan to play) but so far i didn't really like 13 that much, the most recent one i played was 6, which I completed yesterday, it was great, but kinda easy xD I didn't have any trouble in Kefka's Tower, maybe I was overleveled, or maybe I just had Insane attacks and weapons, I just beat Kefka like in four or five turns I think and didn't give him time to really damage me a lot

    • @marnea1
      @marnea1 10 лет назад +7

      Are you implying that railroading the player into an endless hallway, in a franchise that use to be known for it's vast open worlds, and near limitless ways to play, is not a valid point of contention?
      I'm sorry XIII just isn't good.
      It's a decent diversion maybe once, only because of the nifty battle system. But I could never see playing through it again given the complete lack of exploration, customization and even battle tactics. Everything last thing about this game, from beginning to end, is designed to be done one way, and only one way.
      Which means every play through will be virtually identical.
      XII was nothing like this. XII had lots of choice and freedom. So, even if it's not my thing, and far from my favorite. I have no problem saying XII was a fine, well designed game full of it's own charm.
      XIII is all flash, ridiculously shallow and empty.

    I just want to say that FF IX is such a fantastic game, almost bigger than life to me... There is so many epic moments in it that MOST of the people doesn't even know.. like when Zidane and Garnet meets for the first time and she is wearing that original white mage robe.. I mean, it has so many references to the previous FFs that the whole game is like a tribute to their own work! FF IX is something where everything just comes together and I think they knew it when they were making it, that it was the last chance to make the game they always wanted and tried to do.. PS2 was coming and times in general were changing.. well anyway, for me a good video game is something like watching a movie or reading a book, it has a story! Games today are WAY too focused on the graphics and playing systems, it is too much! yes, those things are important of course but not that important! For me the story, love and soul are way more important things than any new technologys, techniques or gaming systems what so ever... those things were originally meant to be something that just supports the main story and game in general and now it is technology that plays the leading role.. it is very sad to me and it is shocking to me when I talk to people about these things, but they just doesn't care.. Well, I guess it is what the time we are living in is all about...

    • @bobjilesen8450
      @bobjilesen8450 8 лет назад +1

      I consider myself a true final fantasy veteran. I played and finish all the main games, Except for ff3. (and 11 + 14 because you know the are on line). But i do see that my tast is a bit different than the main stream. I mean from the snes era myn favourite ff game is ff5. Yes i like it better than ff6! playstation era ff7/ff9 both superb. ff8....mehh. The weakest of the entire series for me. ps2 era, myn favourite is ff12. So you see that i got an overal different taste in ff games. The most important thing that is for me the most important thing in a ff game is battlesystems/customization.
      FF5 is higly custimisable (is that a word?), ff7 also. (ff9 NOT so, but the grapics en overal feel made it a winner). ff12 is one of my favourtite ff games. No random batlles and the awsome gambit system. (despite lack of a interresting story and dump main characters, it still the on i love playing over and over).
      ff 13 did try something new. and i like that about it. I dont want random battles anymore. Sure the were fun back in the day. But not so fun anymore. I actualy liked the story, based on higher powers controling the world behind the scene. (its kinda whats happening right now in the world i ques.) Sure the first 20 hours, i was struggling myself, but after that, with the hunting of the the stones, and getting all the stars in the battles, i was soled. The fighting mechanic made the player a dirigent, a tactical overseeer. and its fast as sh@T!

    *WARNING THIS POST CONTAINS FINAL FANTASY X SPOILERS*
    Ummm.. Were you even paying attention to the storyline of FFX? Tidus is NOT sent 1000 years into the future. So many people make this mistake! The Zanarkand you see Tidus in at the start of FFX is not Zanarkand from 1000 years ago, it's actually a 'dream Zanarkand' being summoned by Yu Yevon. He created the dream Zanarkand to preserve the memory of how Zanarkand use to be before it was destoryed by Bevelle in the machina war. Everyone inside the dream Zanarkand (including Tidus) are part of Yu Yevon's summon. That's why Tidus disppears when you defeat Yu Yevon at the end of the game.

      Yes....yes, it is ok. If you are looking up :the complete history" of something and think there won't be spoilers in a COMPLETE HISTORY for a 15+ year old game....then YOU are the one being a dispshit. Common courtesy says don't spoil anything less than 5 years old, as not everyone gets to buy/see a game/movie when its brand new. But you're talking about games 5 generations old here. No, there's no magical hold forever. Do you know how the Wizard of Oz ends even if you haven't seen it? Of course you do. Its over 15 years old, and anyone claiming to be watching it for the first time is lying, or already has heard about it from parents or the internet. So save YOUR internet warrior bullshit and use common sense (if that's possible).

    So basically, Final Fantasy III wasn't released in NA untill much later. What WAS released instead of the real Final Fantasy III was Final Fantasy IV, which was renamed Final Fantasy III in NA. It really is a shame, Final Fantasy III is my favorite Final Fantasy game by far.

    "There's an urban legend that the 'final' in FF meant that this was our last project. While we were having some hard times back then, the truth is that as long as the title could be shortened to FF, any word would've suffice. It was initially going to be Fighting Fantasy, but there was already a boardgame out with the same name."

    9 is my "artistic" fav, everything about it is beautiful in some way, it's the game that touches my heart the most.
    7 is my go-to FF if I want to do all the extra stuff mixing and maxing materia and stats, the setting and music are awesome alwell.
    5 is the game I start always hoping to build a team I've never done before, music is great, but anyway, I usually always en up with mostly the same team, but for customisation at first(playtrough), it is awesome. These are the FFs I've played the most.
    FF6 and 8 are those I play nowadays if I want to make a low-level game, and maxing my characters as powerful late in game which I find a bit sad you have to do(OCD maybe? :P). keep in mind I have played them all some 10++ times, beaten penance in ffx and all that, so if you're gonna start with anyone, start with 9 imo :D

      @rodrigonascimento1800 10 лет назад

Terra->Mage, Celes->Mage, Relm->Dualcasting Mage... 4 Ultimas plus Locke with Valient Knife with Master's Scroll... yup easy xD

    • @stephenrogers390

      Slaughterrific i liked 7 the best its the first ff i ever mastered and 4 was the first one i learned how to play 10 was alright i mastered it too but i thought it was too easy especially after you get the celestrial or whatever they are called weapons which break damage limit and can practically kill everything in 1 hit even the final boss which made it really easy now the battle arena monsters was a challenge i beat nemesis like 4 or 5 times he was pretty hard. i may get the HD remaster when it comes out for the ps4 because i heard it is gonna be the international version with new content and harder than the original ff10 now im into ff14 a realm reborn which i like a lot eventhough its pay to play and an mmo but its well worth it i get to play with cool people and my big brother he plays on his pc and i play on my ps4 and its also the first mmorpg i have ever played and is in my opinion the best ff i played since 7 but 12 8 and 9 were pretty good ff13 really disappointed me i didnt like it at all the worst one SE has made in my opinion.i only like the main ones i think the spinoffs and sequels are very lame but thats just my opinion.

      7 is my favourite, in my opinion it's the greatest game ever made. No game before or since has demanded so much of my time and attention. I read the review in the official PlayStation magazine in which it got 10/10 and purchased it on release. I've spent thousands of hours playing it over the last 21 years and I'm still playing to this day. It's unlikely there will ever be a game that holds my attention like that for 20+ years.

      The ones released in the US in their prime, meaning 1,4,6,7,8,9 are the ones I played till I lost interest until MMO's came along. I'd say that according to how they aged and played the order would be from worst to best 8,1,9,7.4.6. The only reason 7 scored 3rd and not second is the fact that the visuals give me a headache to look at. I played it on a small TV when I was young so it wasn't so bad.
