This game is great besides those borrrinnggg ...frussttrattinngg random battles ...like always!! Square needs to get a clue and develope a fun battle system for final fantasys.

Xenogears had the best battle system but Square STILL decides to go with that ... system they use for final fantasys.

Besides that, this game is sweet and is worth buying ...

...and by the way, XENOGEARS RULES!!

Great game

The last time I played Final Fantasy was summer 2001. I finished 8 and i was ready for 9. When it came out i forgot and nver played it. Finallu though last week I rented it and i was entranced once again. I think this is the best Final Fantasy i have played (havent played 6 so i dont know about it) The gameplay and graphics are superb. I cant put it down, i come home from school and Im on it till 11.

This is the best installment of the series.

Okay. So I wrote that FF Anthologies came in at second. Considering I love that game so much, and this game is the best, there are not enough good things to say about this game. If you ever have [extra money] lying around or even if you don't, BUY THIS GAME! No Questions asked. First off, the graphics are the best of any game ever made, with the exception of Gran Turismo 2's car and track masterpieces. The stunning background effects and, as always, the FMV's are flawless. This game is, without a doubt, THE greatest game ever made. This game, however, is not, I repeat, NOT, for everyone. If you don't like scourging through towns to find items, you won't like this game. But for any fan of the Final Fantasy series, this is the only game you will need for a while. Five Stars. THE BEST!

pretty good game

a sweet game but...i got thinking. there should be more characters who can use MP and the trances were a lot worse than limit breaks. i think that Squaresoft should use the same battle system as FF7, materia and stuff, but use GF's like in FF8. that way your GF doesn't suck up all of your MP. as i said before, this is a really great game(but i think the whole thing about Zidane being an scientific clone of Kuja is too much like the whole Cloud/Sephiroth thing from FFVII).

They've done it again!

Back to the 4 character battlegroup. It was a great system, though don't expect much as far as limit break stuff (trances according to FF9), they take forever to fill and happen at odd tiems when you don't want them to, but they don't go away when you die and last longer than 7's. 8's limitbreaks were too powerful and too easy to acquire. 9's weren't all that exciting excpet for Vivi's, which could do the most damage, just shy of 20,000. But it is definitely one of the most challenging games as far as sub-quests and the "Omega". Omega being the term referring to the hardest creature in the game. Emerald and Ruby were the Omega for FF7.

The Game itself was great, good story line, a little leaning towards FF8's as far as the interaction between the two itemized characters. The storyline was a lot more realistic than 8's depsite the obvious fantasy locale and look. It was a more traditional FF as it didn't have "ultimate" party capabilities. Like FF7's ability to have everyone cast a double blow of Knights, like 8 where low level characters could still manage to cast high level magic. It had more like the class system of FF4 and 5 which there in essence with 6 and then exchangable among characters in FF7... virtually nonexistant in 8. But it does have the original magic names... Firaga, Cura, Panacea.

It still doesn't compare to the epic nature of FF7 or the great characters and multiple storylines of FF6 (where the main character was not so obvious), no enemy was quite as cool as Sephiroth and no hidden character was ever as fun as Gogo.

I would heavily suggest playing FF8 before this if you already haven't. For those who love graphics... play the earlier FF's before you play this one, definitely. For storyline lovers... start out with 5 or 8... placing 4 and 9 afterwards and 6 the 7. For systems... Well this is class system with something that worked like 8's junction system except you junctioned items instead of GF's. 4 was clear and cut, 5 was job skills and stuff, 6 and on were almost the same. It's a great game with hours and hours of side quest play and a lot of hidden things that keep you thinking and running to that players guide. Playonline does a good job with it. Some sidequests require you to play for hours just on the sidequest and another requires you to speed your way to the end of the game for secret items. The card game isn't as functional as 8's or as predicable... in fact the card game could have been left out... but anyway...

I also recommend playing Chronocross and Zenogears for a completely different look of play. As well as Legends/Secret of Mana. Chronotrigger is a great game as well, if you can find it that is.

Zelda 64 fans (both of them) would enjoy Megaman Legends and that series.

I would also suggest a good PS for FF8, any of the older PSx's will not perform well and will either freeze up or simply skip some of the coolest CGI's, especially since the Summons like Bahamut and Odin have great appearances.

Definitely worth it, thought look out for a few new status effects and some other suprises like ATE and Synth.

Best of the PS1 Final Fantasies

I'm a bit biased because I worked on this game but I really think it's the best of the FF series (7,8,9) on the PS1.

Great Little Game...

I feel like this game was really overlooked because of the disappointement that was FFVIII. But its a wonderful gem, sweet and amazing story. I don't usually like things that fit in to a more standard classic fantasy world, but this is a definate exception. Its a beautiful game and I played it right through! Everyone who likes games with characters that you can love should play this game.
