Oprainfall: "To keep this article fairly concise, I’ll just list five of my favorite video game couples. I could also come up with a separate list for anime couples, but for this Valentine’s Day, I’ll stick to these five. Love, of the romantic non-filial type, is my favorite theme in all of art. As much as an incredibly well written piece of classic literature or science fiction or fantasy novel will captivate me, it is romantic elements that will always affect me the most. Almost all of my “guilty pleasure” books are strongly romantic themed. This preference does extend to my video game habits as well. And, given that I’ve been gaming for almost the entire history of video games, coming up with a minimum five games was easy, keeping it down to five was extremely difficult. The first four of these titles will be in the order which I have played them, but I will save up my favorite one for the last."
Gary Green said: We Europeans got royally screwed with the releases of the first six Final Fantasy games. I’m sure you’d find plenty of dodgy imports or bootlegs if you looked hard enough, but we never actually got a proper release for any of them, at least not for the first editions. There was a lot of xenophobia in gaming at the time, so anything Japanese getting released in the west at all was nothing short of a miracle. It was an ugly trend that continued well into the 2000s when worldwide releases became the new norm.

Seriously, I mean if anything an HD Remaster. I wish they had the balls to allow the entire story to be made, but I get the financial gamble won't all for it.
