6 was a brilliant masterpiece given its time period. And while all the other FF games were good in their own way, the need to make something more grand in games from the PS and beyond just took down the series a notch.
everyone talks about one final fantasy being superior to the others. To be honest: Are you that crazy? FF in general is an awesome series, and that's it. As my predecessor spacesex101 said, all of them are good. So stop complain and just listen!
@spacesex101 just wish some of them connected. I know they said there's some odd connections to VII and X... but it's weird. Something should connects to FF VI and all will be well lol
@silfocus84 There's absolutely ZERO connections to VII and X. The only FF game that has any ounce of connections would be "IX" since the entire game is littered with references to older FF games.
@silfocus84@Wheelio The only connections that I know of are the direct sequels like the After Years directly after FF4; Gilgamesh appearing all over the place in the series, and the connection of FF12 and FFT; otherwise, it's ironically been an RPG series that only shares similiar plot points through the series (rebel factions, the elemental crystals, etc), despite having the same name separated by a number. The only connection I know relating FF6 is the repeated mention of Espers
@Quez256 Most of the Final Fantasies are unrelated to one another. If there are sequels, they usually titled: Final Fantasy [Title #] - [Sequel #] or Final Fantasy [Title #]: [Catchy Title]. Moogles, Cids, Esper names, etc. are more accurately called conventions than signs of all the games being related by plot. The "Tales of..." series is similar in this approach.
As for Gilgamesh, From what I understand he travels through the dimensions as a result of being cast into Mu by Exdeath in FFV.
Also Square stated that FF X and FF VII are related, with, if I can recall right, FF X being prequel to FF VII. Talk about confusing shit with that timetravelling going around anyway.
@spacesex101 you are so right, sqaure needs to try to grasps the old days of Final Fantasy though, i love all their games but they should make a Final Fantasy, modern graphics, all carachters,and make it 3d
I personally thought FFV was a very fun game! I had alot more fun with it than I did FFIV, that's just a personal opinion! My top five favorite final fantasies would have to be (in no particular order) FFVI, FFIX, FFV, FFVII, FFX. I also love the original NES version of FFIII, not the DS port.
I wonder how many of you even know what Gilgamesh is famous for in the old legends. No, Final Fantasy did not create Gilgamesh, but I will admit it is a really humorous twist on his legend.
@darkfire158 It's been a long while since I read the Epic of Gilgamesh, but if my memory serves wasn't he journeying to find a way to resurrect his brother in arms who died? As my memory serves, wasn't this friends name also the name of Gilgy's hound, Enkidu?
the ffxii better in my opinnion :P but ur music ur list :).. gilgamesh is a frigging god! travelling to the most games... the DEVs jsut happen to run short on ideas what kinda boss to make... (jsut kidding :D but might be true) imagine this to happen...tifa doing the same thing running into dimensions n pop up in ff ii as a boss...(note if that had happen its most likely u to screm wtf! n... 99% would kick ur ass :P)
As much as I agree, it's a sad fact that SE does what will make them money and sadly I can't see a Gilgamesh spinoff doing well. Blame the New-gen fans for hating the SNES era.
If I could I would put Final Fantasy V in like the Top 5 final fantasy games but i don't think it was the best compared to final fantasy VI and Final Fantasy Tactics for playstation
Well, from a gameplay perspective for me it's easily the funnest of the series. It definitely doesn't have the best plot, and the music's relatively weak (with the exception of this kickass song). But the gameplay easily makes up for those flaws.
And yes, YOU may have had the raw deal with not getting FFV, but I got the raw deal when NONE of the FF games were released here (Australia) until the Playstation (Which is a console I didn't own).
Well I can't claim to be an RPG gamer of yore, but I'm pretty ashamed that I didn't know about FF1-6 not coming to my country. Does that include the rest of the PAL region as well?
NTSC cartridges are differently shaped to our PAL cartridges, and won't fit into our SNES's, but I think if you managed to mess with your SNES to fit them they will play because if I recall correctly, the only real difference is the shape, not the content. However, if you managed to get your hands on a NTSC - PAL converter, you could play NTSC games on your SNES without modding it or anything.
I guess that's not so bad, but it was still keeping Final Fantasy from being exposed to the PAL market.
If Final Fantasy was considered niche enough not to be financially worth releasing in Europe/Australia back then, that really puts a damper on the question of whether Tales of Graces will ever make it here. Imma go worry now.
It's funny though, we don't get Final Fantasy, a hugely succesful RPG series, yet we do get the Lufia series, a not very succesful (yet vastly superior) RPG game for the SNES. We also get Terranigma, another vastly underappreciated game. Nintendo is very odd when it comes to regions and all that jazz, their very inconsistent. I still love them though.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@MrMinkStar FF5 is one of the worst, jesus, how can you say its the best? FF6 and FF9 are the 2 best IMO, gameplay wise, FF7 is up there. FF5 has nothing but jobs, a huge improvement from FF1-3, but lacked the importance of characters seen in FF4/6/9. I dunno, I can't think of anything in favor of 5.... But this song is good! Go Nobuo Uematsu!!!
@MrMinkStar man i hate when we say ffv is the best of all final fantasys or final fantasy7 9 i dont care i wish we just enjoy the great works the final fantasy people worked hard to make people happy and enjoy a whole series of great final fantasys fighting about it doesnt do anything but make things worse
@RadiantTheLight Dude, the fact that my comment is still the highest rated after 7 months shows alot of people agree that it's the best. Or maybe it's just cause it's a freaking FFV video, who knows. I'm really wishing it wasn't top rated though, everyone keeps freaking replying to it, even after 7 months...
@MrMinkStar i'm absolutely not agree with you FF5 has indeed great qualities especially its battle system the greatest ff battle system but the history is really classical and characters are not very charismatic at the opposite of FF6 ;-)
Squall's brooding attitude in the beginning is well fitted, and it's interesting watching his personality change as the story progresses, as he gets to know Rinoa more. Ergo, realistic.
Zell was the male opposite of Squall, upbeat but quick to anger. He also provided some fun banter between himself and Seifer.
The love story in VIII is endearing, and is widely regarded as the most touching in a game.
I liked final fantasy VIII, and I guess we like games for different reasons. Like...if it was NOT a final fantasy game, you'd probably think it was great.
I actually liked the GF system a bit, and enjoyed customizing them with amnesia greens and scrolls to give every character every skill (save a Hit-J scroll on Squall).
Maybe I'm just weird. I thought VIII was better than X even though X started voices and everyone seemed to have a boner for Auron except me.
@Khadaj32 interesting love story......except that squall didnt even like rinoa till she was gone, then decided to do anything to be reunited with her. his personality change makes no sense, and despite everything, his most famous line is "....whatever"
Gilgamesh has come a long way. He's fun to beat on in FF XII. I'm partial to FFV only because of all the job classes you can mix and match. The story was shit.
so far, a great list..not just because i comment on some songs i know but in general this is a well placed list-..well i'll save the rest when i get to number 1
I think VII and VIII are enjoyable but from my POV FF IX rocks :p, any other IX fans out there?
By the way I was shocked to see Bartz (from FF V) in Dissidia. I never imagined him to look and act like that. Battle theme is nostalic (I hate Gilgamesh for that imposter sword, I actually tried to beat X-Death with it T.T)
@rissole25 i agree that VII, while good, is massively overrated. But VIII is the absolute worst FF game. Obviously you're entitled to your opinion, which I respect, but please don't tell me you liked Zell and Squall? Plus the whole love story was just awful. I'm not a huge FF fan, but IV and IX are the best in my opinion.
@Katana991 Yeah, I normally play RPGs for the characters and the story, and VIII pretty much failed on both fronts. The story seemed extremely lazy compared to previous games, and the characters were just...well, imagine hanging out with a group of the most irritating idiots in the entire world. At least the music was good :D
The opening movie to VIII was wonderful though, but now I'm starting to realize a difficult truth: most of VIII sucked. It's hard for me to accept it, it was a unique feeling for me when I played the demo when I was 8 years old. It wasn't anything like the other games I played back then (unless you count the Pokemon RPGs, it was 1999 after all).
@Katana991 It's a minor flaw in what is otherwise a phenomenal series of games. I always found that the Shin Megami Tensei games were much better on pretty much all levels: the characters (especially in the Persona games)are great and the stories are never too forced, which makes them more compelling. The music also rivals Uematsu's work. No joke.
@RhysWood But then again, there is a decent side to VIII. I found a website that talks about themes in stories within popular culture, with a subject I found called "Adults Are Useless". I found FFVIII under this category, and here's what it says:
Adults start wars that get out of hand or lock the super-dictator in a box and throw their hands in the air when she inevitably gets out, and it's all left to the super-capable SeeDs to clean up the mess.
@Khadaj32 If you read my comment properly, you'd notice that I actually never said Persona's music was as good as Uematsu's. Of course it isn't. I was saying the characters were especially good in Persona games. I was comparing Uematsu to Shoji Meguro who is the composer for the SMT games. He also happens to be a fantastic composer whose music I find to be as good as Uematsu's.
Gilgamesh was so silly in FFV, but he was my favorite character! I love that theme too! I can remember running across Big Bridge getting into all those fights...
The only Final Fantasy game besides X-2 that was bad is Final Fantasy 8.
And they are both bad for the same reason- the combat systems suck.. Draw/junction system of FF8 was terrible and not fun, and the same can be said for X-2's "costume" system... terrible.
The story of FF8 was good, and X-2's story was decent, but the GAMEPLAY just wasn't there for those 2 games in my humble opinion.
FF8 was not bad at all, sure the junction system was a bad Idea and I hated when I played it through the first time. However if you can master that junction system you kick that games ass. I owned it on my second playthough.
Final Fantasy 8, was the only final fantasy that ever pulled me into the mind of the main character.The Music was amazing, and viii also had some of the best character development I've seen in the series,although some characters were bothersome (SELPHIE). Sure the junction system could have been a little more tuned. But VIII reminded me of just why I love RPGs.
I loved VIII, but of course it had areas where it needed work.
Definitely the Draw system seemed more like chore and wasn't fun, but it was a part of becoming strong. Think of it like grinding out levels, since levels didn't play a huge role in FFVIII.
But overall, I think the whole epic-ness of VIII's story and the way it was told was enough to justify that the game is actually really great.
they can only stop if they start to get lazy but the fans will always get hired to do the job! and they have a passion so its gunna stay good. ...exept..12... im looking at u twelve...
They need to make a game with the origins of Gilgamesh, with his buddy Gogo he traverses the several Final Fantasy galaxies in search for the ultimate weapons in each one.
The fight with Excalipur was definitely Gilgamesh's crowning moment of awesome. First, he did pretty decent damage. Then, he transforms into the super Gilgamesh and gloats about his newfound power. Then...yeah.

Zell and Squall were awesome.
Squall's brooding attitude in the beginning is well fitted, and it's interesting watching his personality change as the story progresses, as he gets to know Rinoa more. Ergo, realistic.
Zell was the male opposite of Squall, upbeat but quick to anger. He also provided some fun banter between himself and Seifer.
The love story in VIII is endearing, and is widely regarded as the most touching in a game.

I liked final fantasy VIII, and I guess we like games for different reasons. Like...if it was NOT a final fantasy game, you'd probably think it was great.
I actually liked the GF system a bit, and enjoyed customizing them with amnesia greens and scrolls to give every character every skill (save a Hit-J scroll on Squall).
Maybe I'm just weird. I thought VIII was better than X even though X started voices and everyone seemed to have a boner for Auron except me.

@Khadaj32 interesting love story......except that squall didnt even like rinoa till she was gone, then decided to do anything to be reunited with her. his personality change makes no sense, and despite everything, his most famous line is "....whatever"
face it, ff8 sucked

Gilgamesh has come a long way. He's fun to beat on in FF XII. I'm partial to FFV only because of all the job classes you can mix and match. The story was shit.

I think VII and VIII are enjoyable but from my POV FF IX rocks :p, any other IX fans out there?
By the way I was shocked to see Bartz (from FF V) in Dissidia. I never imagined him to look and act like that. Battle theme is nostalic (I hate Gilgamesh for that imposter sword, I actually tried to beat X-Death with it T.T)

blackymon 2 years ago
FFX and VII are good. But VII is so overrated.
VIII is the best FF i reckon. Great music, great character development made it the best. You can actually relate to the characters in FF8.
Oh and I'm glad to see this song in the top 10 :)
rissole25 2 years ago
@rissole25 i agree that VII, while good, is massively overrated. But VIII is the absolute worst FF game. Obviously you're entitled to your opinion, which I respect, but please don't tell me you liked Zell and Squall? Plus the whole love story was just awful. I'm not a huge FF fan, but IV and IX are the best in my opinion.

@RhysWood I thought VIII was okay, but I couldn't stand the GF system or Squall acting like a jackass.
Katana991 2 years ago
@Katana991 Yeah, I normally play RPGs for the characters and the story, and VIII pretty much failed on both fronts. The story seemed extremely lazy compared to previous games, and the characters were just...well, imagine hanging out with a group of the most irritating idiots in the entire world. At least the music was good :D
RhysWood 2 years ago
The opening movie to VIII was wonderful though, but now I'm starting to realize a difficult truth: most of VIII sucked. It's hard for me to accept it, it was a unique feeling for me when I played the demo when I was 8 years old. It wasn't anything like the other games I played back then (unless you count the Pokemon RPGs, it was 1999 after all).
Katana991 2 years ago
@Katana991 It's a minor flaw in what is otherwise a phenomenal series of games. I always found that the Shin Megami Tensei games were much better on pretty much all levels: the characters (especially in the Persona games)are great and the stories are never too forced, which makes them more compelling. The music also rivals Uematsu's work. No joke.
RhysWood 2 years ago
@RhysWood But then again, there is a decent side to VIII. I found a website that talks about themes in stories within popular culture, with a subject I found called "Adults Are Useless". I found FFVIII under this category, and here's what it says:
Adults start wars that get out of hand or lock the super-dictator in a box and throw their hands in the air when she inevitably gets out, and it's all left to the super-capable SeeDs to clean up the mess.
Katana991 2 years ago
You lost all credibility when you actually had the gall to compare Persona's music to Uematsu. Now I know you're a troll.
Khadaj32 2 years ago
I agree. I find Uemastu better that Persona, for it doesn't focus on just Metal, it focuses on a wider arrange of instruments.
faltzar2 2 years ago
@Khadaj32 If you read my comment properly, you'd notice that I actually never said Persona's music was as good as Uematsu's. Of course it isn't. I was saying the characters were especially good in Persona games. I was comparing Uematsu to Shoji Meguro who is the composer for the SMT games. He also happens to be a fantastic composer whose music I find to be as good as Uematsu's.
By the way, now I know you're a fanboy.

The only Final Fantasy game besides X-2 that was bad is Final Fantasy 8.
And they are both bad for the same reason- the combat systems suck.. Draw/junction system of FF8 was terrible and not fun, and the same can be said for X-2's "costume" system... terrible.
The story of FF8 was good, and X-2's story was decent, but the GAMEPLAY just wasn't there for those 2 games in my humble opinion.
IDCFFSGTFO 2 years ago
FF8 was not bad at all, sure the junction system was a bad Idea and I hated when I played it through the first time. However if you can master that junction system you kick that games ass. I owned it on my second playthough.
ryan489 2 years ago
though I did enjoy 8 to some extent... (it's 9 I just can't get through. too old now I think)
the real thing I'll never get is why they made a -2 for X and not for VII.
fucking crisis core doesn't count.
shishikyuu 2 years ago
Sorry, gotta disagree.
Final Fantasy 8, was the only final fantasy that ever pulled me into the mind of the main character.The Music was amazing, and viii also had some of the best character development I've seen in the series,although some characters were bothersome (SELPHIE). Sure the junction system could have been a little more tuned. But VIII reminded me of just why I love RPGs.
RockmanPro 2 years ago
I loved VIII, but of course it had areas where it needed work.
Definitely the Draw system seemed more like chore and wasn't fun, but it was a part of becoming strong. Think of it like grinding out levels, since levels didn't play a huge role in FFVIII.
But overall, I think the whole epic-ness of VIII's story and the way it was told was enough to justify that the game is actually really great.

They need to make a game with the origins of Gilgamesh, with his buddy Gogo he traverses the several Final Fantasy galaxies in search for the ultimate weapons in each one.

The fight with Excalipur was definitely Gilgamesh's crowning moment of awesome. First, he did pretty decent damage. Then, he transforms into the super Gilgamesh and gloats about his newfound power. Then...yeah.
