Legend of Legaia is easy to get on eBay. Its still fairly cheap


But used! I've never managed to get a decent used PS1 game. They always work for about 2 hours, then you hit a spot that's destroyed.

Truth, people don't take care of their games

I also checked, couldn't find Legend of Legaia or Breath of Fire 3, I do still have Lunar: Silver Star Story and Alundra (a Zeldaesque PS1 game, that I'll put up there as being one of the hardest games ever, I'm talking Dark Souls hard)

Dang man, that's unfortunate. I have a ton of games I bought from eBay that are in great condition. If they have some bad scratches, I just take them to my local Play-N-Trade to get them repaired.

I've gotten lucky with people posting items and not knowing what they have.

Meh, still waiting on my FF XIII to be delivered. Normally gamestop will have my game to me in 3 days, tops.

Wiki disagrees.



They're ignoring that Vaan wasn't added into the game until they were more than halfway through the development cycle. Bosch and Ashe were set up to be the main characters of the game, but they forced Vaan in because they thought it wouldn't sell well without a young male protagonist. There's a lot of controversy in the development of the game, where the director was forced to step down from the project mid-way through (Yasumi Matsuno).

I'm of the opinion that Ashe is the main character as the entire plot revolves around her and she is the driving force behind the game.

quote:

If you don't think Vaan is the main protagonist, then who do you think the main protagonists of IX, X and XIII are? I think most would say Zidane, Tidus and Lightning, but you could say Garnet, Yuna and Vanille. I just go with who you control most of the time


For me, I think it's Zidane, Tidus/Yuna, and Lightning. You have a very good case for Yuna on FFX, but Tidus is actually important to the overall story that he can't be pushed aside like Vaan.

So back on topics:

Anyone else ever play the DS FF Tactics title, Grimoire of the Rift?

I found it on clearance at Target for 8 bucks and loved it. Great side quests. And, hey, Cloud!

Another one I didn't know existed.... I'm slacking. I'm guessing worth picking up if I see it somewhere?

I dug it. It's true to the Tactics formula (if that's your thing).

Found this little site earlier. Was debating on passing it along.

Has some old school RPGs of course.

Every FF spinoff on a handheld was pretty great. Revenant Wings, Crisis Core, Dissidia, A2, Rings of Fate were all very good.

Played the shite out of those ones. Actually just got the prequel to Dissidia a few months ago (majorly slacking on the gaming front lately) and lost about 3 days of my life.

PSP is the most recent remake and the "best", but it's not like the PS1 version is bad at all.

how long is the gameplay in XII? I just ordered it off of amazon, as my gf will be studying for law school for the next month or so.

I think it is the longest FF game. I have heard it is between 60-100 hours. I never really got very far but I don't have a way to play it anymore because I don't have a ps2 anymore.
