Ditto!

To pick up where the last topic left off, I loved the story for FF7 and so many things about it, but I wasn't thrilled by the materia.  it was good, but bordered on micro-management at times.  FF8 was a nightmare.  Although it had a cash system that made sense for once (why are bats carrying gil? ???), drawing magic was a terrible idea.  I felt like every time I met a monster, I had to sit there and drain all I could before even picking up a weapon.  This was worse in situations where a boss had an awesome spell.  The only redeeming feature IMO was the trigger attack.  That was novel.

FF9 was a step back towards a more fantasy flavor and less "photo-realistic".  Summon element to the story was very grandiose and as a whole it felt like they were trying to use what worked from FF7.

FFX was brilliant!  Just Brilliant!

Just gonna put it out there, FFXI was a flat out disappointment.

FFX ws definitely my fav! Water ball = hours of fun. Auron is def my fav FF character ever.

Agreed!  FF7 and FFX are tied for me.
Never played FFX1 because I hate MMOs (just sayin').
FF12 was decent, but I couldn't get in to the storyline.
FF13 was sad and linear.  Boring!

Fav Summons? I love Yojimbo from FFX!

Did anyone enjoy the Triple Triad card game from FF8 as much as I did?  I could play that mini game for hours.  Dare I say that FFX was not that great IMHO.  Also, FF tactics is another great one and it has a lot of replay value I think.

Yay

I ❤ FF

Nuff said
I agree.

I've only played Final Fantasy (the original) and Final Fantasy III because both are on the App Store, but I am eagerly waiting for IV to probably come to the App Store.

FF8 for the card game but six is my all time the story and the battle system the whole game is nuts. By the way snes or GBA version is the best.
