Final Fantasy IX for PlayStation 1

Pros: Pretty FMVs.
Cons: Lousy plot, forgettable characters, terrible music, and ridiculously overdone random encounters...for starters.

The day Final Fantasy IX was released, I hurried to the nearest GameStop to pick up the copy I reserved. I dutifully forked over $50 and then quickly hurried home with my treasure, practically drooling to see the latest shining gift from on high with...

Pros: nice graphics
Cons: none

Well finally Final Fantasy 9 is here and I been waiting a while for it to come out and now its here. I have other FF(Final Fantasy's) 7 and 8, I plan to get all of them because these games are the best rpg's out there. This is the last Final Fantasy and...

Pros: Excellent graphics and engaging story line
Cons: Haven't found any

Final Fantasy 9 takes a look back in time to the early days of role playing. Square Soft's game directors finally decided to take the game back to it's roots that made it so popular to video game fans around the world.

In this installment...

Pros: Characters with monkey tails, good graphics for the most part
Cons: drag queen-like bad guy, kid with no face and glowing eyes, mediocre story

The only game that is closer to the grave, is Final Fantasy VII. (Final Fantasy VII is INSIDE the gr ...

Pros: One Helluva Game!
Cons: Some things in there that remind you of FF8, Eeewwwhuuuhuhhuhh!!!

The very first thing that I should say about this game is..."WOW!". It is a truly amazing game and a definite pick-me-up after the very hard to understand hard to use FF8. It's back to the good old days; the time when the earlier FFs dwelled....

Pros: Excellent return to roots on key points
Cons: Overly linear; too simple/easy to win; too much FMV

With Final Fantasy IX (FF9), Squaresoft has clearly gone back to the basics of a good Final Fantasy game. Compared to the disaster that was 7 and 8 (both of which were very much like walking movies and less like RPGs to my tastes) 9 represents a solid...

Pros: Traditional Final Fantasy look and feel. Great music, graphics.
Cons: Lacking story.

Being a pretty jaded gamer I knew what to expect from Final Fantasy 9. Although the game takes place in a new world with different characters it's still more of the same. You always end up saving the world somehow. What makes up for the lacking story...

Pros: This title has an incredible mix of the old and a flare of new
Cons: Some of the gameplay aspects are so old school that it could use some innovation.

I am a big video game fan of SquareSoft products, and I thought I should share my opinion of Final Fantasy IX with the community. This is one great Rpg that shows the genius that has been shown by Square Soft time and time again.

This game...

Pros: Beautiful graphics, subtle battle engine, great gameplay
Cons: Linear storyline- simple play

You know, after playing all Final Fantasy games in recent years I come to the same conclusion. Too linear and too simple.

To start with, except for naming characters yourself, theres very little you can do to make your characters unique. Each...

Pros: Medieval Setting, Characters, Storyline
Cons: Random Battles!, midi music

Not to be unprofessional, but DANG, this game is great. As a long time Square gamer I had been thoroughly disappointed by Final Fantasy 8; but the series has been redeemed. FF9 fixes nearly all of my complaints about FF8. (GF's UUGGH!)

First...

Pros: Magnificent story, charater design, FMV's
Cons: Music seemed to be taken from previous FFs, charaters look like migits

FF9 is one of the best Final Fantasy in the series. The charater design is good and i liked how they had a story on each charater. Only bad thing is the charaters look like migits! Im sorry! but they do! However it doesnt affect the game play that...

Pros: Great story, good charactor development, not to hard or to easy.
Cons: I have heard that this is the last FF game for Playstation.

After playing Final Fantasy IX I realized that it was a really great game. It draws you in, and forces you to keep playing, and you continue not only for the challenge, but also for understanding. New tweaks in the storyline will continue to pop up,...

Pros: It has the best Weapons wonderful videos and its the best game.
Cons: IT HAS NO CONS!!!

Its Possibly the best Final Fantasy game ever it has awesome
detail on videos great fighting great Swords and weapons. All
new bosses and weapons as in Omega Weapon. New Realistic, detailed
Characters and great music breathtaking graphics...

Pros: Great story line with wonderful graphics and funny characters.
Cons: Not the best game for someone under 10

Final Fantasy 9 is a great game and i love playing it. I have yet to beat it yet but I am more than half-way through with the game. I think it is probably one of the best Final Fantasy games i have played for Playstation. FF7 was also great but FF9 I...

Pros: Great graphics, awesome FMV, and solid gameplay
Cons: Not much of a storyline, short game.

Finally Squaresoft is back in the groove, after a mediocre Final Fantasy VIII, which left a bad taste in many people's mouths. Square seems to have recaptured the formula needed to make their great games. Anyway to the game, Final Fantasy 9 is...
