Final Fantasy
-1999 Release

Story: Journey the world as Squall, a SeeD from Balamb Garden. Along with his companions they'll fight to save their world and the future form an evil sorceress.

Battle System: Random battles seem to occur almost anywhere. Even on the towns and cities on certain occasions.

There are 6 main characters in you're party-3 of which will fight during battle. There are also 5 other characters that you have control over for a brief time during the game.

Methods of attack....weapons, magic, and summonings. Weapons can be upgraded, lower magic can be upgraded to stronger versions, and summonings can learn useful skills and abilities.

Characters:

Squall Leonhart-The hero the story. Comes off as cold and uncaring. His weapon is the Gunblade.

Personal Opinion: He is mine....that is all. mrgreen - heart


Rinoa Heartilly
-Member of a resistance fraction called the "Forest Owls." Also Squall's love interest.

Personal Opinion: She is a happy.....worthless person whom I dislike greatly. She's also after my Squall which I just can't have. So...since the game actually gives you the chance to rename her I of course give her my name. Then "I" get to be the worthless character who gets the guy.

Quistis Trepe
-Youngest instructor at Balamb Garden. She acts as a concerned older sister to her students.

Personal Opinion: Her weapon is a whip.....which just increases her coolness points. Her limit break is also useful-she can learn special attacks from enemies during battle and then use it against them.

Selphie Tilmitt
-A transfer student to Balambia Garden. Don't be put off by her tiny size.....she'll surprise you.

Personal Opinion: I love her....honestly-one minute she's all about love and peace and the next she's ready to blow things up.

Zell Dincht-The games hand-to-hand fighter and main comical reilef. He has a bit of a short temper, but is loyal to his friends.

Personal Opinion: Poor Zell.....never seems to get the hot dogs from the dining hall that he so desires.

Irvine Kinneas-Galbadia Garden's #1 sharpshooter and ladies man.

Personal Opinion: Honestly.....don't know what to say about him.

Music: It's good, but sometimes I get tired of hearing it-especially the "louder happier" ones.....

Rate: 9.5/10

Always lots to do in a Final Fantasy game.....also has a great ending!

I have a friend who loves the FF series.

I can't remember if it was this one she was talking about one day or if it was IX.

I've heard about all of them from her though. She rants about them sometimes and compares them.

She tells me I need to play them. I've only played one of them and that was X-2 so I hear I tried the worst one and need to play a better one.

X-2 wasn't the greatest......there were some fun things about it though. I hated the Yuna ran however. lol

I'll have to make a review for FFX and FFX-2 sometime. I myself only have 5 of the FF games.....7, 8, 10, 10-2, and 12.

FF8 is my main s**t.

Favorite game ever. First played it when I was way young. I loved it. I honestly think I know every little thing about that game. =O

Unfortunately, it's a rewritten FF7. Read the story synopsis. They match up nicely.

My disc was messed up though. I couldn't do the vase side-quest in the city Laguna starts out in in disc 2. I can't believe I can't remember it's name.

Other than that, it's an amazing game. At least for me.
