I guess just looking to get some discussion going about it. Link to post Share on other sites
HangukMiguk 8 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 7 was great, and the movie is just outstanding.as for my favorite, 8's definitely that.i've actually heard that 12 is uber-confusing. but that's just talk, i haven't seen it yet. Link to post Share on other sites

However, 7 had Sephiroth, who is quite possibly the most badass character in any game ever. Link to post Share on other sites
Love4hockey 0 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Would I have to have played the game to enjoy the movie? The only FF game i have played was teh original on regular nintendo. Link to post Share on other sites
garnes44 0 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Without a doubt FF7, quite possibly the best game ever, IMO. The new DVD is also excellent. I haven't played a game that has rivaled FF7 for storyline, gameplay, and overall greatness....Garnes Link to post Share on other sites

The only FF game i have played was teh original on regular nintendo.From what I have heard, you had to play the game to get what's going on in the movie. However, I would definitely reccomend picking up the game, you can get it for PC if you want, for probably under $20. It is literally one of the greatest games ever, especially if you're at all a fan of RPGs. Link to post Share on other sites
Don Giovanni 0 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 However, 7 had Sephiroth, who is quite possibly the most badass character in any game ever.YEShis sword was like 10 feet long, and he just owned everything. well, everything until the end. i remember when you got to play as him at one point in the story, and he was like 20 times stronger than your normal characters. one hit and you would kill anything with him. there were a lot of badass characters in that game. dajango or whatever his name was, the wolf, he was awsome. same with cid, especially when you got his best limit break and he would rain down bombs on everyone.

nell789 0 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Cid was easily my favourite character.I've been wanting to play that game again, it was the only FF that ever peaked my interest. Link to post Share on other sites

However, 7 had Sephiroth, who is quite possibly the most badass character in any game ever.if you think that 8 rivaled 7 in terms of storyline, then you definetly didn't play 6(realeased as 3 on the snes). I also think that most of you haven't really delved into 6 that much, because 6 and 7 are generally considered 1 and 1a in terms of the best FFs. X was also very good too Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 To tell you the truth, I only really liked the orginal. I felt the others were too.. scrpited, you didn't get enough choice in building a group. When I play a rpg, I like to be able to pick out the characters I use, and what not.. I like the D& D style RPG better. Link to post Share on other sites
HangukMiguk 8 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Would I have to have played the game to enjoy the movie? The only FF game i have played was teh original on regular nintendo.the movie actually has a special feature on the dvd that does an entire reminscence of the game. for me, it was just a trip back into history lane.but anyone who hadn't played the game before will most likely get a grasp at what had already happened.

X was also very good tooI've played 3 for SNES back when I was real young, so I don't think I was old enough to appreciate the storyline truly. However, it was a very good game, and I do think III was better than 8, but I don't think it comes close to 7 honestly. Link to post Share on other sites

However, it was a very good game, and I do think III was better than 8, but I don't think it comes close to 7 honestly.i'd say it's kind of gone downhill since.after 8, i have yet to finish a final fantasy game. i got to disc 3 of 9, and realized that is was just ridiculous and put it away.i haven't finished 10, basically because i didn't have time to anymore.and of course, there's no point in starting 10-2 until i finish 10.but there really hasn't been an incredibly involved final fantasy game since 8, and to me it's a toss up between 7 and 8 as to which is better.part of why i preferred 8 was that the ending was what i expected, unlike 7. but 7's climbing back up the charts since advent children came out and answered the questions you wanted answered.

zimmer4141 0 Posted May 3, 2006 Author Share Posted May 3, 2006 I thought X was average, a bit too linear for me, not enough plot twists, you kinda knew where you were going at all times.X-2 was the worst FF game ever. It felt like it was marketed towards 10 year old girls. Hanguk, my advice is, don't finish X, don't start playing X-2. Just wait til XII comes out. Link to post Share on other sites

buzbrad11 0 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I never really played any of the games once they left Nintendo platforms, as such my opinion is biased. Personally, my favourite is FF2 (4) on the snes, followed very closesly by FF3 (6). Link to post Share on other sites
KDawgCometh 2 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I've played 3 for SNES back when I was real young, so I don't think I was old enough to appreciate the storyline truly. However, it was a very good game, and I do think III was better than 8, but I don't think it comes close to 7 honestly.you really need to play 6 again. It is a very deep game and a lot of storyline to work through. If you find all of the characters in the game and take the time to work all of the storylines, then you will realize that it is very close to 7 IMO. The fact that at any point there is meaning for every character in the game is massive(as honestly, cait sith has to be one of the most worthless characters that any FF has ever come up with). You end up with 15 characters in all at the end. I say give that game a go again Link to post Share on other sites
RhinestoneCowboy 2 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I never played any of the games, but I remember being wasted in college watching someone play chocobo races..which one was that? Link to post Share on other sites
nopunk 0 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I never played any of the games, but I remember being wasted in college watching someone play chocobo races..which one was that?7Or 10.Probably 7, though.Those tracks are really conducive to being on some sort of hallucinogenic substance, although alcohol will probably do fine anyway.
