My final fantasy experience went like this
FF7: my like 4th computer game (yes comp) that i ever played. I was hooked then and there, forever. Loved the gameplay, the battles, the STORY, the MUSIC, Squaresoft is genius.
FF4/FF2: played this, hooked more and more.
FF5: started to worship squaresoft after this one (no, not really)
FF3/FF6: absolutely insane, liked almost as much as FF7.
From here i started to delve into the games that never made it here into the US from Japan.
Terranigma: god i love this one, its very deep into universe, life beginning, human life and meaning, etc. (played like 3 times)
Tales of Phantasia: YOU HAVE TO PLAY THIS ONE its my favorite SNES rpg (played 4 times). LOL the music is too good, in fact i actually have mp3’s of it
Secret of Evermore: only good, compared to like Tales and Terranigma
Seiken Densetsu or Secret of Mana 3: THIS IS PWNAGE never gets boring, good story (multiple stories in fact) and battles are too fun (with most rpgs they tend to get cumbersome…not here tho!) ive beaten this sucker like thrice
Chrono Trigger: nuff said, this is pwnage!!! on par with Tales in all respects. Mp3’s here too lol.
Oh ive also played FF8 a little. Havent played anything else. Guess im not too much a fan lol gets thrown out the window crashing to the dry dirt road rolling, you know like in westerns (im just oldschool! )
So, favorite game of all? I would have to say Final Fantasy 7.
