re: Let's Talk Final Fantasy

FF1, was on the NES, released, 4 light warriors, little story, hard as shite, mostly you wander around completely fricking lost, great game, felt a real sense of accomplishment when I beat it

FF2, released in north america FFIV, if I remember this is the first one to introduce jobs for characters

FF3, north american FFVI, never played this one

FF4, released on the SNES as FFII, one of my favorites, you get to go the moon, good story as well, lots of characters, including a "spoony bard"

FF5, I know absolutely nothing about this one

FF6, released on SNES as FFIII, this has to be the best one, amazing story, opera scene, awesome antagonists, a must play

FF7, PS1, also a must play, great story, amazing game play

FF Tactics, PS1, a definite departure from the originals in terms of gameplay. Lots of plot twists. My all time favorite. Only thing I didn't like was the main character could not become a heavenly knight.

After Tactics my FF playing got a little sketchy.

FF9, PS1, I always liked this one, even though it didn't seem to get a whole lot of publicity.

FFXII, PS2, this shite was bad, and I mean bad, made me glad that most of the previous main characters never spoke. Never beat it, never wanted to beat it, by the end I did not care
