Pros: Everything else! Cons: Limit system.
The Final Fantasy?
'Course not!! Kill off a series like this? Squaresoft would have to be run by a bunch of manic-raving lunatics to STOP making Final Fantasy games.
They have already promised us Final Fantasy ten, eleven, twelve etc......

Pros: Nostalgic, great graphics, sprites, and story Cons: Average music, load times
Final Fantasy IX has been touted as a return to the old style of the series. Long time fans of the series were by-and-large disappointed by Final Fantasy 7 and even more so, 8. Although 7 and 8 were bestsellers, their greatest proponents seem to be...

Pros: everything but those blocks Cons: blocky graphics sometimes, a bit 2 easy
Final Fantasy IX was the first FF I actually bought with my own money. Not from my parents or aunts but me! When I finished the game, I was in awe. Final Fantasy IX is a good game. In my opinion, its better than Final Fantasy VIII. But like always,...

Pros: Gameplay, Ability System Cons: Plot Progression, Chocobo, Character Issues
Well, for me, I hated FFVIII. I mean, it is a good game, but I hated the way we have to play it. I think the idea of "junction" isn't too bad, but the idea of "draw" is perhaps the dumbest thing in the world. It makes the game boring, just like Chrysler...

Pros: Great Graphics and FMV Cons: Boring Story, unbalanced gameplay, weak music
When I first saw screen shots of Final Fantasy 9 I was extremely impressed and overly excited. I got my copy the day it came out, popped it into my Playstation and was immediately disappointed. When i was expecting a action packed opening like Final...

Pros: Highly developed characters, EVIL bad guys, great music Cons: Too many random battles
I have ALWAYS loved the Final Fantasy series of games, all the way back to FF1! Final Fantasy 2 has remained my favorite all this time, but now I can say we have a challenger of that! And THAT would be Final Fantasy 9. I am most of the way through disk...

Pros: Great graphics, gameplay, sounds, and adventure galore Cons: None so far
Introduction
I travelled to my local video store and looked in at the game rack for my Playstation thinking sadly how soon it would be just another one of the many obsolete systems in my collection. I found a game I did not expect to find,...

Pros: Graphics, personality Cons: overall simplicity
READ THIS IF YOU'RE DEBATING WHETHER TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON FINAL FANTASY 9! (skip ahead to the end if you're in a hurry)
I have played the Final Fantasy series since Final Fantasy 5, and my mind has yet to be changed that Final Fantasy 7 is...

Pros: Epic story, great characters and development combined with great graphics and sound Cons: The side quests can draw away from the actual mission.
I am an old school Final Fantasy player. I started
out playing Final Fantasy I for Nintendo, then FF II
and FF III for Super Nintendo. Then came FF VII &
VIII for Playstation. Although I tried to fool myself
that I liked VII and...

Pros: Good Graphics,Story is good once it picks up,Great villian. Cons: Story is a bit slow at first,most characters are not very well developed.
Since the arrival of FF7 on North American shores,there have always been the 'old school' types who have complained that an RPG just isn't an RPG without 'old-school' elements. Even though I am generally not one of those people,I feel that they...

Pros: Lush Graphics, Fantastic Story Cons: At About 40 Hours, A Little Short
Hear that big whooshing sound? That is the sound of Final Fantasy fans all over the world breathing a huge sigh of relief. Ever since Squaresoft had made the transition to the Playstation console for their Final Fantasy franchise several years ago,...

Pros: Back to old school, quicker battles Cons: on the old, dying, Playstation
I’ve never been more excited for a Final Fantasy game than FF9. Why? Well, it’s simple. Squaresoft’s pledge to return to the Final Fantasy roots. Everytime I see that little Black Mage running around, my heart skips a beat. (Doesn’t he kind of look like...

Pros: Returns to what made the series great Cons: PlayStation is aging hardware, looks no better than part VIII
After 9 iterations, the Final Fantasy world has reached its pinnacle in this, the most stunningly beautiful FF game to date. It also serves as a poignant reminder to fans of just how deeply rooted in our hearts the storylines of this series are. When...

Pros: Need to use every character at least once in the game. Cons: Some of the music sounds pitiful.
I have been a player of the Final Fantasy saga for almost 7 years now and I must say, I wasn't really anticipating the release of FF IX because I had heard many complaints about it. Numerous of the people who complained were just complaining about the...

Pros: Great Plot. Well thought out characters. Amazing effects. Good music. Great FMV's. Um... Amazing overall game Cons: hm.... I suppose the enemy encounters are too frequent sometimes
Wow... where to begin?
I got this amazing RPG a month ago at Electronic Boutique (I had a whole slew of gift cards after Christmas ended,) and wasn't really expecting much. My past encounters with Final Fantasy 8 (with it's boring plot,)...
