Square Enix's recent announcement that they would be bringing classic Final Fantasy to the Virtual Console was greeted as good news all round by fans, but the details of the announcement have led to some interesting speculation.
Gary Green said: We’re finding ourselves in a similar position with the Pixel Remaster edition of Final Fantasy IV as we were with Final Fantasy III since, once again, we’ve received a slightly upscaled, more vibrant port of the original game when there’s already an expanded 3D remake available. As such, we’re playing a game which, even after its long-awaited release, still lives very much in the shadow of its remake.
If only they didn't screw ps4 owners over with a physical release. I'd have ran through this in a heartbeat.
The first one I played, it was the one that made me fall in love with JRPGs and is still my favorite to this day. A masterpiece
While FFVII ranks highly, there's more to the series than one game. Here's Chit Hot's picks for the seven best Final Fantasy characters.
A landmark RPG rich in personality, Final Fantasy IV took the series to the moon and back.
This was the game that got me to notice the series. 6 is the one that captured my heart and 7 was when it cemented it as one of my all-time favorite series. For me 4 - 9 are the best. 10... I can appreciate it and enjoy it, but it doesn't hold a candle to the classics. 12 is good too, but I can never finish it. 13... well, it's--it's a game. 15 starts off pretty strong, but then feels rushed and slapped together with duct tape and glue by the end.
I'm hoping 16 will blow away all expectations and really give us a game that rivals the classics. The trailers are doing a good job in making me think it can!
The theme of remorse & redemption still haunt me today. This game also introduced the famous Crystal Theme.
I don't know about this. I think you need a bit more concrete Info before you can assume this is what's happening. E3 isn't that far off we should find out soon regardless.
About time, FF3 = best FF game ever!
Get to hammer Kefka one more time...and see General leo die one more time also... *sob*
How about skipping the DS instead... dont get me wrong the remakes so far are good , but i'd hope for something better for possibly the best FF to date .
Either PSP , ps2 or ps3 ...
And we all know it will probably get a long while to get a new remake with better graphics afterward , if the ds one is released .
FF7 is the only one for sure with a next gen remake planned for some future .
FF6 is by far the best final fantasy game ever. Nothing comes close to it. My favorite game of all time, period.
Final Fantasy 6 was the best. I hope they do a PSN and XBLA HD remake of it =D
