that was totally awesome. Makes me want to fire up the old PS2 and beat the game all over again.

For the record, the opening guitar riff to his first track "prelude bombfare" is from the original Final Fantasy - which I still own.

Man, all I can say is the game has really progressed since then

It had better be an improvement over 12. That was the most over-indulgent, overhyped, glutted with pointless crap game I have ever played. And the characters were awful. And the ending. What. The. Crap.

6 is GOD TIER. If anything I'd like to see that re-released. It was the best example of RPG storytelling in the series, which, IMO, is the point of RPG's.

you and i are very much on the same page.
I thought 9's story was great too until the end. Then it just got weird.

6 and 10 have the best stories in the franchise IMO

I don't know what Final Fantasy is, and I don't like cool music.

So, I won't check out your link.

Ugh, I couldn't even get near the end, just terrible.......

I'm mainly pissed that they tried to turn it into a single player version of a MMORPG, seriously, ***.........

Please Square, go back to classic ATB.

Holy crap you actually finished that game? maybe I should put another attempt into that game and beat it. I'm a bit glued to Chrono Trigger on DS right now.

Ya know... i actually liked 12. But from a total gameplay point of view. The story was crap and none of the carachters, except maybe Fran, were memorable.

I have been digging the DS remakes of 3 and 4 though.

I've been a die-hard FF fan for evs. Still have the original on NES as well as 2 & 3 on SNES (4 & 6). Haha i even cos-played as Amarant from FF9 (the most underrated game in the series) at an anime convention years ago.

FF games are usually the catalyst that prompts me to buy a new system... bought the PS1 when ff7 came out... PS2 when ff10 came out... i may have to buy a 360 or ps3 when 13 comes out now too!

Hehe, so, how does everyone rank the games? Excluding 11:

1. FF6
2. FF4
3. FF9
4. FF5
5. FF7
6. FF1
7. FF3
8. FF12
9. FF10 (i honestly enjoyed 10-2 more)
10. FF2
11. FF8

Been following this guy on youtube for a while now.

Didn't know he had a myspace until now.

That FF cover is pretty rad though.

Hes got some great Periphery covers as well.
