Hrm... this is a lot tougher, but I've done every one to this point, and I can keep going!

FF9: It's a marked improvement from FF7, and miles ahead of 8, and well, I'd even go so far as to say it could stand as a decent RPG on the PS1. But I can't quite call it "good." It's nice how as you get further along, there's more optional things and actually things to find that are completely not needed for the main story. It's got the best mini game in an RPG, and I'd even say that its graphics can hold up today. But the game is far too easy, and it really structures to control your upgrading equipment by tying your skills to them. Summons still take too long to cast (no surprise), and really aren't needed, as I've beaten the game without using any of them seriously. There's also a few cheap enemies, though, fortunately, they're optional. Not to mention that I only remember snippits about the story and characters. And what was the end of the game, again? 5.9/10

FFX: Ugh, are we trying to kill the series like with 8 again? The sphere grid leveling system gives it more points than 8, but that's about the only good thing I can say about this game. For an RPG, it's painfully linear. I also highly disagree with switching out characters mid-battle, but this is not only permitted, but encouraged, early in, when only certain ones can hit certain enemies. And the forced mini-games here again are annoying, especially Blitzball. Not to mention that the plot seemed airy and aloof, well, what little of it was memorable, at least. The characters also bored me. Playing this was more of a chore; it was not a fun experience. Plus, get far enough in it, and boy, could you break this game! For a while, many FF games have been finding bigger and better (?) ways to break them. Swap Auron to a path with a fuckton of speed-ups, and watch the game go splat. Not that it wasn't already stupid easy... I really can not recommend this yawnfest.1.1/10

Around the Network

Final Fantasy IX - 8.4/10

Final Fantasy X - 9.5/10



If sony released ff9 on psn I would snatch it.

ff10 is a high 9 for me, one of my all time favorites.



Final Fantasy IX - 9.5/10. Certainly among the higher points in the series. An extremely well crafted world, it carried a great sense of adventure throughout the entire game, had some of the series' best music as well as some of its most memorable characters.

Final Fantasy X - 8-8.5/10. Despite some obvious flaws, I really, really enjoyed this game. Having been the first game I'd played the whole way through with my partner, perhaps I view it more favourably than I would otherwise. The dialogue and narrative, though terrible at times, wasn't as insufferable as some would like to point out. The music was great, I liked the sphere grid as well as the battle system. Overall, I thought it was a great RPG and a very good Final Fantasy.



FF IX - 9.7
FF X - 9.1



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

FF9 is a solid 9. Excellent, excellent, excellent FF, easily the best of its generation.

I didn't finish 10 due to distaste. It would not be fair for me to rate it.
