Final Fantasy History Pt 1 of 3

[gaminglegend98]

lol i am watching this video in 2012

[Through011]

Nes= the early years of Final Fantasy

SNES= the golden years of the series

PSX= the evolution years of the series

PS2= a slow in decline which started after X (the departure of the original team, the merging with a rival company and the flop of Spirit within)

PS3/Xbox260= the dark ages (I pray that Versus XIII does better)

[dss103]

@ 0:45 of the video when the narrator says "Find out where it came from, and where it's going" Sadly, we all know that it's going somewhere that isn't as badass as where the first ten games in the series came from :(

[tonertonki]

The old final fantasys remind me of pokemon....

[GuyOnChair]

Final Fantasy 1-9 > Final Fantasy 10-14.

g4 used to RESPECT Final Fantasy!? Now Adam Sessler knocks it whenever he can.

[JTrey06]

@zackfair73195 does anyone even watch that show anymore?

[gongo3090]

@JTrey06 No

[thebyrdman16]

@zackfair73195 i dont think he likes final fantasy games all

[Sentinal6]

Acually I have played all the ff games and ff12 is perhaps my favorite game. Everything that made ff great was in that game and done perfectly, people who bash 12 usally have no way to back it up. I would like to hear why it sucked... the battle system doesnt count because that has way more stagegy than pressing the A button hoping for the random battles to end(glares at you ff4).

[GuyOnChair]

@Sentinal6 Just pressing "A" is what gets you killed in the old final fantasy games, And a lot of people find the older Final Fantasy game themes a lot more appealing than the new, the fact that it was more mid-evil lore with a great fair of that fantasy psychedelic thrill, (which is why I personally love the classics. III and V ) the newer Final Fantasy games look almost as if they're trying to appeal to fashion and drama. Final Fantasy XII Did that a bit less, so I cant knock your opinion.

[GuyOnChair]

@Sentinal6 But please don't defend your case on FF12 and then talk crap about 4 -_- ... ... Oh I'm sorry, you posted that 6months ago :) how rude of me, but yeah. I've made my point.

[GuyOnChair]

@Sentinal6 Ohh... and the music for FF3; even as an 8bit game.... JUST GIVES ME THE GREATEST BONER.

[xReignBowx]

May Final Fantasy rest in piece.. LOL JUST KIDDING! ... but seriously.

[MP9220]

"In 1987 a small japanese game company called Squaresoft"

Wrong.. They were called Squaresoft from 1992 to 2003. Before that, whey were just calles Square.

[mogiethefirst]

It started out as a classic epic game to never be forgotten and to love all your life to a peace a shit cut scene after cut scene thing with a love story and battles that takes slim to non strategy.

[MrDeejayjfx]

I thought FFXIII fucked it up.

[KosakaiZero]

this made me cry a bit knowing that final fantasy was there last project if it didnt work out

[Sumfourtyone87]

final fantasy before 12 is perfect but final fantasy 12 and 13 is peace of crap..

[6jan9]

two points up!

[freedomfriestastebad]

2d ff best ff.

[Soulmaka2]

FFVII FFXIII FFX and FFVIII are the best

[realmusic4L]

@Soulmaka2 I would replace FFX with FFIX and then i would agree lol but to each there own.

[freedomfriestastebad]

@realmusic4L have you even played the 2d ffs?

[realmusic4L]

@freedomfriestastebad Yep 1-6 4 is my fav with 5 in close 2nd out of the 2d ffs

[freedomfriestastebad]

@Soulmaka2 wrong 

[Soulmaka2]

@freedomfriestastebad what's wrong?

[DoctorDoubleX]

FF9 FTW!!

[AlexTheYaoiLover1]

The thing is now a days people are all over there 3D games and saying how easy it is to make 8-bit games and just push them aside

They dont understand we didnt have the graphics and technology we have today and they cant appriciate the old clasical games

[The556deadpool]

@AlexTheYaoiLover1 hell im 16 and i agree with wat u say

[JoelakaDamian]

[sageeagle]

These's days...it feels like Final Fantasy is going to have a Final games seeing as how much of Square Enix is doing a terrible job.

[XxKID1xX]

What's up with Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within?

[Zolfka1]

[AdmiralLittleWing]

[theman36912]

[oblivionkh18]

@theman36912 Yeah, it is. It's from the same company as Final Fantasy.

[angryvideogameshad]

@theman36912 no its not

[The556deadpool]

[iownallnoobs]

[freedomfriestastebad]

@iownallnoobs no

[tyniehawk]

*sniff* hearing that ff7 music brings a tear to my eyes. ohhhhh my family in the gamebox... how i love thee.

[tyniehawk]

lol. My brother and I both said to our parents "just get us a Sony Playstation and Final Fantasy 7" and that was a few years after they had been out. We happened to rent it while borrowing someone's system and it blew our minds.

[jamesgravil]

lol, those graphics look dated now... I wonder what game players of the Famicon era would make of FFXIII's graphics?

[freedomfriestastebad]

@jamesgravil they dont give a shit ffxiii sucks

[KevSmoothable]

I get sad to see how the graphics were :s It looks so bad :'( Was probably the craziest shit ever around that time though :P

[Vyse195]

i love Final Fantasy

[MrTraitorX]

interesting, i enjoy watching videogame documentaries.

[bonk2k]

This video really makes me miss the days when g4 was about gaming and not about the lowest common denominator. I really miss informative shows like Icons. I wish history channel or discovery or something would start producing in-depth shows about the history of gaming.

[thekingofreyes3]

amen to that

[TheRpgFanatic]

@bonk2k If you're still looking for that, I made videos like that on my channel :)

[miwagre18]

@bonk2k thats y theyre losing their ratings 2.no1 wants 2 watch shit like cheaters r cops wtf

[realmusic4L]

@bonk2k I totally agree why they felt the need to become a spiketv clone is beyond me.Whats funny is that any channel that was once more geared twards people like us becomes like that.Even cartoon network has become a young boys version of spiketv lol.
