Alexa Ray Corriea writes about the timelessness of Final Fantasy VI in celebration of the game's release on the PlayStation Network today.
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.
One of the most beloved entries in Square Enix’s long-running franchise is celebrating its 30th anniversary and that’s cause for celebration!
I'd rather it play more or less the same by have the 3D chibi graphics from Ever Crisis, I don't want them to change the story like they did with FF7R.
This arguably is my best game of all time out of the 40yrs I’ve been playing videogames

FFVII - 25th Anniversary
Square “HAPPY ANNIVERSARY. We got some news on the upcoming remakes, we got a shit ton of new VII merchandise, we have some other special community things planned and on, check out this cool 25th Anniversary logo specially created for VII’s big day”
Square Enix revealed a NieR: Automata Masterline figure while one dedicated to Final Fantasy VI is available for pre-orders in North America.
Put's XIII to shame. Where did the talent in Square go to?
Still one of the best RPGs I played.
I loved all the FF's on NES and SNES. Once they transitioned on to the Disc based systems they focused more on CG cutscenes than GamePlay.
Never really liked the FF series as much after that (FF8 had really good CG's though).
Xenogears remains to be my all time fav JRPG.
Bought this the week it came out on the EU PSN a number of months ago, haven't really gotten anywhere with it though unfortunately. Maybe when the heap of releases eases off again I'll get down to it (not complaining about having plenty of games to play though!).
Still have my launch cart ! Love this game.
