little bit of nostalgia for the best game ever made, with the best music in any video game, and the best villain ever. who's with me? in a fit of nostalgia, i'm trying to beat this game in seven hours. so far its taken me one hour to get out of midgar... |

I agree wholeheartedly... ignoring the greatness of monkey island 2 and grim fandango for a moment. All the other FF games sucked, unfortuantly. |

3, 8, 9, and ten were alright. |

FF6 (ff3 in america) was my favorite all time game. I almost cried at the end when I first played through the whole game. It was incredibly epic and surreal for its time. |

as was seven. but three is good. if only i could find a copy of six...if only. |

it was too easy.. knights of the round kinda spoiled the ending. unlike ff2 where it took me 20 tries to kill the boss, i beat mr. s on the first try. |

|
|
eh, knights of the round is for pussies. i beat him using comet2. |

all the Final Fantasies were great games. some of the few enjoyable games out there now adays |
||||||||

the only time i used knights of the round was on the ruby and emerald weapon ff7 is defintely a favorite of mine, i sort of "grew up" on it as well. i think during elementary/middle school, thats all i did. ff7. i do like the other final fantasies quite a lot. even 8 which most everyone i talk to think it sucks. ff7 is definitely nostalgia for me. xenogears is up there for me too. |

Haha, holy shit. I was just about to create a topic about FF7. Not about the game itself, but about some new tidbits and rumors that have been coming out of Japan yesterday/today. http://www.gamesarefun.com/cgi-bin/newspro/fullnews.cgi?new And here ya go: sid1062790732,15865, |

A remake of FF7 would be pointless. I'm not a graphics whore, and the gameplay and story were perfectly satisfying and modern. Not like Metal Gear Solid 1, where a remake really IS going to make a difference, with the modern gameplay. Whatever, this is bull anyway. FF7... I've kind of soured on it over the years. Cloud is like a dumbed down Squall, and Sephiroth is one of the most overrated villians ever. He's hardly interesting, and never struck me as particularly evil (like Kefka!) but everyone sucks his dick because he looks cool and has a big sword. I like FF8's story, characters, music (much better sample quality and more varied styles) and overall style more, but FF7 had superior gameplay... FF8 had too many failed experiments. Loved the Materia system (even though you were basically invincible and the characters all end up mostly the same, which sucks... except for their limit breaks). The setting was nice, quasi-futuristic ambience about it... Midgar blew my mind the first time I was there. Overall, FF7 is still probably my second fave FF, behind 6. I criticize it out of love and respect. |

Oh yeah, a SEQUEL would suck too. They'd really have to contrive to find new ideas... and a prequel wouldn't work, because the game would end at a sour note (because of the sad state of the planet at the start of FF7), wouldn't be satisfying. I have no unanswered questions about that game anyway. In fact, I'm not crazy about the new FF X-2 either, though I know I'll buy it. Seems more like FF- T&A. Yuna was also the most boring FF heroine in history. *much trepidation |

kefka was a pimp boss. so twisted and sick. |
||||||||
|

Actually, i take back my 'all the other FF games sucked' statement. 6 was just as good... although 8 9 and 10 just didn't live up to the expectations set by 7. In my case at least. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
actually, replaying through seven has made me realize how good eight is. its subtle and nicely designed. sort of like kid a to ff7's ok computer. yeah...weird analogy. |

Final Fantasy VII is my favourite game of all time. FF8 was a gigantic letdown, it had neither of the things that a good RPG should ALWAYS have: Interesting characters Good/great storyline |
||||||||
|

|
|
i'd like to be able to play ff7 on the pc. i got halfway through on my ps1 before it broke :( |

Squall was interesting! And the other characters had their place, unlike Cait Sith/Vincent/Yuffie (as fuckable as she is). Or maybe I'm just biased because Squall said and did all the things I would have said/done. Except I don't have beautiful women like Quistis and Rinoa trying to sleep with me. :_-( |

Hironobu Sakaguchi is a fucking genius, he's my hero, I hope he never fucking dies. We need to start a fund to help cryogenically freeze his head for future Final Fantasies.... |

i like both ff7 and ff8. i like the feel/atmosphere of ff7 much more. 8s story gets a bit too cheesey for me, though. like I WILL LUV U TIL THE END OF TIME WITH FUZZY BUNIES AND etc. the slow motion orchestra fall into your arms thing argh SOMEONE HIT ME WITH A STEAL PIPE ON THE HEAD i felt ff7 for the most part was free of that. the fact that one of the main love interests erm, left, is a bit different at least. STILL i like them both and they are both good and i think an ff7 sequel would be good. most everything square makes that is rpg is generally good. they have a good reputation despite the greedy-money-mass produce-exploit interest sorta thing. ff7-2 gets a thumbs up for me |
