  • Hey, Alexander Looks Like A Holy Castle Golem?

  • Bahamut is the "King of Dragons", and Alexander is... well he is a rock, a badass rock, but a rock.

  • The thing that pisses me off the most is how easily it was all dismissed with the Mysteriousness of the calling of the espers in this was put aside by technology.

  • I loved the final judgement scene but it pissed me off how in the end and with no respect , this guy just shows up and just moves it all aside. I have been upset with it for about 10 years now.

  • HOLY JUDGEMENT in the face mothafucka!!!

  • final fanatsy 7 was good i loved it, but its overrated!, final fansty 9 best one i believe..just wish there was more summon!

  • @gorey13demise It is not overrated but just very well thought about because it appeases its older players very much. You would do well to respect that because without the older players support , this game may not have existed

  • How do i gEt the Bahumat summon?

  • if they kept FF 9 totaly the way it is, battle system and camera view and no voices, but with the graphics of whats best possible at this moment, it would have been much more awesome.

  • i think not hearing any1 talk was part of the magic in FF7, 8 & 9 cutscenes lol

  • Thanks for putting this up - my Disc 3 nearly coughs up its own lung getting through this sequence so nice to see it in its entirety

  • was thata it for alexander :( poor guy

  • Thank god i bought this game back. I get to play them on my ps3 console.

  • poor ol' Alex gets his shit ruined, poor git :(

  • ff is beyond gaming

  • The PS1 FFs were so damn magical.

  • The beginning with Wakka.lmao xD

  • i love eikos face at the end lmao *goddamit theyre hugging* XD

  • How I wish I could cut off Garland head grrrrrrr. ~ I really like Alexander .

  • there is a reason why bahamut is op

    show me how ya get impaled alaxander

  • there is a reason why bahamut is op

  • i wonder what gemstone can be used to summon alexander if he is allowed to be summon in the game... maybe celestine? or aragonite?

  • alexander was probally one of the best summonings they made due too the fact that if you summed him he would blast you with millons of star light blasts and give you 999999999 def plus if he died he would crush his enemys in the process

  • What exactly is Alexandria, a pair of wings on on castle?

  • one thing i forgot... what is that big eye ?

  • @idontFeelFine It's the eye of the Invincible, Garland's airship.

  • i abandon the game when i reach 4th disc, so what the heck is that eye, i know it destroyed the island of summoners too, is it some kind of anti summon weapon?

  • Well don't forget guys, Alexander is an eidolon; a magical entity. The damage is only temporary. If he was summoned again, he'd be in perfect condition.

  • I was really upset at the fact that I couldn't possess Alexander in this game. This fight was incredible...and tragic.

  • oh wor, your intro totally cracked me up lol XD nice collection

  • I really loved this game, a lot of fond memories go hand and hand with it. Although (don't hate me) I just really despised the whole sprite-ifying all the characters. Giant heads, hands, feet and silly looking monsters (well some). How could it go from FF8 to this, to FF10? I guess they just had to mix it up I suppose. Love the game though!

  • absolutely the best game in the series.

    fell in love with zidane : )

  • why cant RPG these days be as good as the one from SNES - PS1

  • Zidane, stop being badass

    We're trying to mourn over here >:C

  • When I saw the shot at 2:04 it kinda looks like the scene with Chaos about to have the final showdown with omega.

  • "IN the RED corner, weighing in an insane amount of awesome, BAHAMUT, KING OF DRAGONS!!! ANNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDD in the BLUE corner, with enough Holy Might to smite a planet, ALEXAAAAAAAANNNNNDDDDDDERRRR, the HOLY GUARDIAN!!!" *Bell rings in first round*

    ...Is it sad that everytime I see these scenes this is what comes to mind?

  • LOL Eiko's just frowning at the end, poor girl just wanted to not be alone.

  • What exactly IS Alexander anyways? I know he's supposed to be some sort of celestial creature since his attack is 'HOLY Judgment' and all, and the fact that he as given those wings also confirms that in my mind but why is he a machine? Is he living enchanted castle of some kind? IDK it's just weird...

  • alexander = elemt sanctus!!!!

  • Alexander is not the castle of Alexandria. He is clearly behind it; he's protecting it. In order to summon him in Final Fantasy IX, you must have all of (his) gem fragments.  Eiko and Sarah managed to summon him due to that reason. He appears to be a mechanical creature like Doomtrain from Final Fantasy VIII.

  • Bahamut ZERO would've blown that castle to smithereens.

  • @snipersteel5200

    that we can agree on however were stuck with ff9 bahamut lol

  • i guess Bahamut learned you don't fuck with Alexander.

  • I love Eiko's angry face

  • Bahamut is the greatest! He went out swinging! @ 2:19 he punches on of the lasers that chases him! By the way, this version of him has no eyes and he still handled his business!

  • @LeesDisplayName Bahamut is like chuck norris, Bahamut can do anything without actually doing it.

  • i didnt know alexander is like a big castle?

  • @joelsilva731 Alexander is a machine and in final fantasy 9 he is the castle of alexandria

  • Bahamut should of won....

  • FF8 wasn't a bad game, nice graphics(for the time)and an excellent story. I think it's problem was that it was just far to easy. By the end of the game Squall was the highest at lvl 15! FF9 does feel a little childlike but it's mean't too. (I also love Tetra Master on this) I guess they both have their ups and downs but I love this game just as much as 6,7 and 8.

  • this game was epic i can't believe this clip has 4 dislikes

  • but there is seems that the sword of the castle kills alexander or something

  • BAHAMUT FOR PRESIDENT ... or he will DESTROY YOU !

  • @CivilServiceScribe you must be joking or have your numbers mixed up! 9 was not only the best Final Fantasy to date but also one of the best games ever BECAUSE of its amazing story, characters etc. 7 was very good but 8!!!!! 8 relyed on its graphics and nothing more and was to me disappointing.

  • @stu1x69 and the battle system sucked and left you relying on gf spamming while your characters barly leveled at all i got to disk for level 29 and gf ifet level 57

  • @Nintendomanic no... if you learnt how to junction like any intelligent person then gf's become pathetic compared to you

  • @stu1x69

    8 was awesome. 8 allowed you to do extra/bonus stuff earlier than both 7 and 9 who you had to stick to the story for longer. and the monsters lvlin with u made it so you couldnt just over lvl a boss. the only thing i didnt like with ff8 where the dream sequences with laguna

  • @WasLilChrisnowbigish yess I'm according with you FF8 was most better than 7 and 9, and the Dream sequences really SUCKS xSS

  • @CivilServiceScribe you stupid ff9 is the best

  • i wonder whose more powerful out of alexander and ark. i like ark more though for sure

  • The funny thing about this scene is that Alexander (as a dragon) was Bahamut's rival in Bahamut Lagoon, and also the final boss. And I can't quite remember properly, but I THINK Alexander killed Bahamut before the game even started. Or kicked him out of the dragon world or something.

  • i feel like playing final fantasy games again

  • cool

  • wait is alexander in final fantasy 13 an edilion or summon cause i have it but i dont kno if it is this

  • @hypershadow1223 He's Hope's eidolon

  • But I don't know it might be interesting to see everything in 3D.

  • If Square Enix remade 7, 8, and 9, I hope they stick with the prerendered backgrounds but much more enhanced, I would hate to play 7, 8 and 9 if it was all 3D.

  • Comment removed

  • @zage1980, if they remake any of the three you said, I would be happy, but I hope Square Enix will do it right.

  • Final Fantasy 13 spoiler sort of... I was originally hoping Bahamut for Hope's summon... But when he got Alexander I flashbacked to these scenes and was like "Alexander is even better."

  • Holy judgement kicks mega flares ass any day.

  • I definitely think they should remake the whole game with better gameplay graphics and enhance the amv's graphics as well and put it on the ps3. That would be amazing.

  • Eiko basically makes it impossible for me to take these scenes seriously. 

  • I love that Terra's moon is covering Gaia's moon.this particular night on Gaia

  • i miss FF9 so much...@.@ i think it is the only magical world version in FF series...

    nowaday... the upcoming FF series are so technologies and all robotic stuff summons...=.=" especially FF13

  • @9chun I agree, all of the enemies in 13 are mostly machines or robotics.

  • @zage1980 true. all Final fantasy games are good.... until number 10 lol

  • @MikeyD03878, lol why do people have so much hate for 10? I wonder...

  • @Gouimes because the sphere grid takes such a RIDICULOUS time to fill up plus Tidus is a whiny little girl and then it turns out he doesn't even really exist anymore. I remember playing for 30+ hours and only being able to fill up like 7% of the damn sphere grind. I knew one guy and it took him 220 hours just to fill up a single sphere grid. Maybe I did something wrong. going to replay it just to give it a second chance.

  • @LovesMassEffect Just about grinding in the right areas. I remember working on my Tidus for such a long time in the Omega Ruins. To beat Penance you basically have to max everyone out, clear the sphere grid and boost up their stats, best weapons, best overdrives etc.... Not really worth it tbh. It's not as satisfying as beating even Ozma in IX or Omega Weapon in VIII, even though it requires so much more work to do....

  • @LovesMassEffect I...don't remember it taking that long. Lol

  • Poor Alexander. he is my favourite summon of all Final Fantasy T-T. And he's got mah name :P

  • Eiko looks pretty pissed at the end that its not her holding onto Zidane lol

  • square enix needs to get off their asses and make a remake of FF9 and FF7

  • @MikeyD03878 IX still holds up very well in its current form. VII has aged horribly though..

  • @ickyzorro ahh but it is still epic ^-^

  • Bahamut comes out firing from the start......

  • how could an airship destroy such a cool summon like alexander...

  • @Denizlili90 well it IS from another dimension?

  • Poor Alexander. He only tried to do his job and protect the castle, but he was only burned and impaled :O.

  • @AquaKittyLionCat He impaled himself in order to avoid being possessed by the Invencible.

  • Rinoa hangs onto a ledge for at least half an hour but Garnet can't hold on to anything for at least a minute. No wonder Eiko is so irate.

    ---

  • Garnet's queen for like an evening, then ickle Bahamut comes along to spoil the party... how does Garnet respond? by summoning a giant mechanical gorilla with wings :D

  • at 2:10 bahamut is like: oh shi...

  • splendide

  • GO GO FANTASY.

  • 2:00

  • Funny that in this hes a massive castle summon and in FF13 hes a wall lol i think that FF13 is good but they are just destroying the original summons.

  • thx alot! my ps always stucks on these, but i loved to see them. just what i needed!

  • I can't believe how evil they did alexander!! I was so hoping I could summon but no...........we have ark?!?!

  • ff9 has by far the BEST bahamut ever in all ff series..

  • i would disagree as FFX has the best looking bahamut :)

  • easily best scene in the entire game, cept for maybe the airship battle :)

  • So not cool < _ <;; Why is it that Bahamut gets totally OWNED by Alexander, but we can summon him later on, and then Garland totally godmods and uses this pathetic little ray to kill Alexander, but we CAN'T use Alexander later on?! INJUSTICE.

  • @SeanAbesto

    well that little ray is not so little afterall ;)

  • -cries- UNFAIR T___T I'd GLADLY give up Baha-mutt for Alexander ~ <3

  • @SeanAbesto

    Well, we always got the almighty holy summon Mog/Madeen! *sarcasm* Or Ark with its Eternal Animation... sorry, Darkness. xD

  • @FireRagnarok xDDD Lol~ I don't have Ark though T__T I'mma get him sometime soon when I have my fixed copy of FF 9 ; __ ;

  • @SeanAbesto I kno ive been thinking that the whole time like we still have the jewels y cant we summon him???! bahaumut gets blown to smitherines too! god i was so mad i wanted to use holy judgement fire like a million holys at an enemy like he did in the fight....

  • Best cinematic on psone "Bahamuth attack"

  • Fuck Bahumut. Alexander is way better.

  • the common folk outside of the castle are SCREWED!

  • I felt so sad for Bahamut, he looked like a tiny bat helplessly trying to live being hunted by those needle-like rays.

  • @Unbeginner

    Me too... but also I felt sad for Alexander when he got destructed by the Invincible

    -_- It's such an alternathing bath of feelings... I can't decide on who to side with *sigh*

    And after all that, the look an Eikos face, when Zidane and Dagger embrace each other, is priceless. ^^

  • Totally, there was a lot going on and well done.

    I couldn't decide who's side to be on either. It was a good story.

  • @bindmichfest it too bad that they don't give yoy the summon for use in the game that would of been sweet as Alexander has been my favorite sense FF7.

  • @bindmichfest LOL! i've played this game 100 times and i never noticed that!

  • Love this scence

  • lol that was no fight , that was alexander giving 1 hit to bahamut

  • This is like my fav scene out of the entire series. poor bahumat :'( LOL

  • zidane is SUCH a hero

  • i agree

  • I thought it was dumb how bad Alexander gets punked. Garland's not even a cool enough character to kill him. Just like how Seifer kills Odin in FFVIII, that was gay too. Yeah right.

  • i really love to play garnet when she has to rescue her kingdom....=)

  • ohh, how i miss the days of old... those summons... (T.T)! they're irreplaceable!

  • Would be better if The Invincible Destroys Alexander was at the end....

  • Best FF series

  • This scene was the most touching for me. R.I.P Alexander. This is where the plot starts to thicken and where garnett's feelings towards zidane become stronger.

  • Such a great game. This vid brings back nothing but good memories.

  • i remember being upset for a while when alexander was killed =\

  • I think this games incarnation of Bahamut is my favourite. The eyeless design makes it look so goddamn evil

  • Fuck yeah!

  • Mega flair meet holy F***ing judgement.

  • haha. Bahamut got owned by Alexander.

    Now i want to play FF9 again....

  • Why in the hell did they never revisit the summons like this in any FF game to date? This is freaking awesome and kicks the ass of Aeons, Guardian Forces and Espers any day.

  • i think FF9 is the only Final Fantasy where Alexander has wings and that a shame because he looks cooler with them

  • can you tell me where you got the clips from??

  • Comment removed

  • wat is 2 disc mean,

  • Comment removed

  • it means you put the second disk in......obviously

  • Zidane was my favourite FF "main character". He was just so awesome.

    And he had a tail.

  • Didn't really like this game much but the CGI's were my favorites.

    Bahamut's my ultimate favorite summon out lf all the games. RIP Alexander. Shame you got owned in the end. =/

  • alexander kinda looks like omega from ff7 dirge of cerberus. I wonder who wud win in a fight.

  • what is alexander really

  • a holy castle/biblical reference

  • I think he's an archangel or something.

  • this part has to be my fav moment in the game and if not, one of my fav moments from the game.

  • It hurts watching Alexander getting hit by the eye. Then I was sad :( Alexander is my favourite summon in all Final Fantasies... RIP Alexander

  • There are lots of info I didn't know, all because I played this when I wasn't that affective to story or backstory.

    Btw, man, poor Alexander, that really gotta hurt -.-"

  • I love the way Eiko looks at them in the end ahaha xD Gotta Love Eiko! XD

  • i LUV how the "almighty" Bahamut attacks & Alexander just PWNS him.

    Alexander FTW!

    They really should use him more in FF games, I always thought he was the ultimate summon

  • heres what i dont understand xD

    how the hell did the summon of alexander end up as a castle? the crystal in the castle is a sword which represents him but heres what i dont understand too..how did he end up in alexandria when its from a totally different continent from the summoners tribe?

    was this all by luck LOL that Alexandria had a summon?i love this game so much though

    Alexander is so damn epic and beautiful

  • The Alexander's wings are beautiful :)!

  • Comment removed

  • Am I the only one who thought Eiko looked adorable gliding down to meet Garnett like that? Cute.

  • I remember whooping at 3:58 when I was playing FF9 lol. I really love this game, it's one of the best XD

  • the ending was so epic because they used the same rope in the start of the game...

  • u realized that too xD

  • Poor Alexander... the evil eye in the sky got him... (T-T)

  • The evil eye in the sky was a edilon (Or however your spell it) Garland forged into his airship do immobilize any other edilion, its name was deathgaze. After the incident in Terra , deathgaze was banished.

  • i did not know that! awesome

  • so is the necklace with garnet actually a part of the giant sword of alexandria castle?

    and actually,if this whole summoning is to summon the whole castle,it would be too much even for eiko and garnet both together(since it totally kicks ass) so the major item to summon alexander was that sword of alexandria castle,but it went berzerk and killed the alexander

    and also,i dont think im actually wrong......since i think holy is atleast 80 mp to cast right? 80 times the number of feathers.....

  • The two stones that Eiko and Garnet have are the key to Alexander. Alexanders power is so great it needs the power of two summoners to call him.

  • i dont think the necklace is part of the sword, thats just a platform to summon him from, but the necklace from lindblum and alexandria along with the earings and cleyras stone that caused the sandstorm, where once one massive gem that was broken apart when the summoners couldnt control alexander because he was too strong and destroyed alexandria, causing the summoners mainly to abandon alexandria and start again on the forgotten continent, so far as i can figure at any rate :)

  • Thanks, my PS2 is being a bitch and won't play PS1 games anymore, so I have to use my ancient PS, which is also being a bitch and refuses to play the cutscenes in FF9 properly, and I know it's not completely the disc's fault because they're virtually flawless.

  • lol i like the end eiko looked all mad XD

  • Fuck alexander, Bahamut all day.

  • LOL!

  • ok, alexander really kicked his ass XD

  • Ok, I understand almost every final fantasy summon but Alexander. Is he some kind of spirit or is he the castle itself?

  • He's an Eidolon, and he's like Leviathan...the original summoners didn't do it right, so they sealed it away, until Garnet and Eiko were able to summon him successfully.

  • he is a literal city

  • was the ray in 3:07 like a spell canceler thing?cuz i think aeons r actually like 70% magic,30% being.which means one they got dispelled they will get screwd......

  • I was really rooting for FF9, but the story never sucked me in once. I still can't remember a darn thing about the characters or what was supposed to be going on.

    Like at the end of this sequence, Alexandria gets blown up. I thought it was gone for good. But later in the game, you revisit it and it's pretty much the same. Whereas, in FFVII, Sector 7 gets destroyed, and you NEVER get to go back. Now that meant something, and was memorable.

  • ah well can't please everybody, it's a real shame you didnt like it dude, maybe you should revisit it. It remains as my 2nd fave to final fantasy 6, its just so classic, plus in my opinion vivi is the best final fantasy character EVER. The ending just put tears in my eyes.
