keeping in mind how old they are these 3 games have to considered as true art, especially in terms of storytelling and game-depth. the graphics look ugly now and the sound seems terrible, but, as mentioned above, the great opening scene in VI should appeal to any gamer.
perhaps i'm just too old :)

I'm playing VI now, I'm 6 hours in and I've lost interest in it, haven't touched it for a few months. If that opening scene was great, then maybe I'm not suited for this game.

Like most classic final fantasies, you only really get in after at least 1/3rd into the game (some 20 hours in). When I played Final Fantasy VIII, I was discouraged 3 times with large breaks in between where I said to myself I wouldn't play it before I actually got to the point where I didn't want to stop. (disk 2)
In FFVI, there is a similar point where you just don't want to stop, but I don't know if you've reached it yet. (I wouldn't think so)
I think that moment, for me at least, was around when I heard this music for the first time:

Yeah, I just edited my original post to put that in. That's happened to me so many times, I've hated the start of a game, grew to love it, and when I replayed the start it still seemed great. It happened with Skyrim, the first day I said I regretted my purchase, by the end of the week I had clocked in around 50 hours.

That was the same problem I had with Fallout 3. I enjoyed the first 10 hours, then I got bored. After 6 months I came back to it, and now I have clocked well over 100 hours in the game, and I still feel there is so much I have left untouched.
Maybe I need to give FF VIII, FF IX, and FF XIII another go. My problems with FF VIII and FF IX were that I only got a week to play each of them, during winter break in college. But I also had other things going on, so I never got back to either of them. FF XIII bored me to tears, but the battle system was pretty good. Maybe I need to give it another go, but with so many other games in my backlog, it probably won't be any time soon.
Hey has anyone played Cuthulu Saves the World? I'm wondering how good it is.
