I've played em all, and am almost done XII. (I have all 6 party members at around lvl 51 right now and I just got to Guervegan) I am an obsessive FF player!!

XII incorporates the best elements of the previous FFs, plus the basic combat system from XI. There is still a transition for boss fights, but encounters with fiends are seemless from gameplay now.

Can't wait for XIII! I got a PS3 last Friday night, and it kicks major ass!

For fans of FF VII (and I'm one of em), FF XII brings back the Espers and a few other elements from VII.

Hurrah, another FF obsessive :)

I reckon XII is prbly the best since VII ... didn't like VI as much as I feel I should have done (loads of people seem to rate that one as the best?). Using the Japanese numbers, 4 is good, and I thought V was very good, has the whole Jobs thing that they resurrected in IX and I maxed out all my guys across the board :shock:

If you liked VII, download a SNES emulator and fetch the ROMS off the internet ... its free, and once you get over the 16bit sprite graphics 4,5 and 6 are everybit as good a game as 7, although a bit smaller in scope. Its also amazing to see what Square managed to squeeze out of the SNES given its limited processing power.

Ahhh, the joyously wasted hours.

I liked X / X2, but they took forever to get going properly. Nearly shed a tear with what happens to Auron at the end ... I think its that whole cinematic style of the games that makes them stand out, there's always one character that you end up actually caring about, like in a good film.

Hows the PS3? and how much did you pay for it! I decided to wait till the price goes down since i don't have over £400 to spend right now haha.

The ending of X is one of the watershead moments in rpg ... it's a game, and you care for what happens to em at the end, which is typically Japanese/tragic ... that's a testament to the quality of Square's flagship product and it's the gold standard by which other rpg's will be measured.

The only rpg that's come close is Star Ocean III. Also a Square title, coincidently.

Hows the PS3?

It is the Rolls Royce of game sytems. Not much more I can say about it. Everything looks amazing on it.

A lot!  :cry:

I admit it, I got it purely out of lust. I'm not usually an early adopter, but the pros so far outweigh the cons when it came to the PS3 that I just had to do it.

Played my mates PS3 on a 42" HD TV last week ... His presents to himself for becoming a father :)
In summary: Frikking amazing ... just mind blowing graphics considering the resolution of the TV it was running on.

Didn't know they were doing an FFXIII ... I thought XII was the end?
If they are doing one - bollocks. Now I will have to buy a PS3.
Hmmm, PS3 or new guitar ... I'm gonna need a payrise!

On XII I just got the second Esper now. TO, Espers are from VI not VII :wink: I like the fact it's not too easy like some of the other recent FFs; so far that giant white chocobo was hard to kill.

I have a (bad?) habit of totally killing the game where I just acquire everything and get the max stats on everyone. I did this on 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10 FF-wise. I must have spent more than 100 hours on X replacing those damn spheres. On VIII I killed Ultimecia at level 6 just to see if I can  :twisted:

Has anyone ever actualy played a FF III? I've never come across it. Not the American III coz that's really VI. And yes the IV I mentioned is the Japanese IV with Cecil, Kain and co. I enjoyed V a lot too simple story but job system is ace and the characters were funny. Good ol times on Super Nintendo. Another good RPG series is Dragon Quest. I've played I, II, III, V, VI and VIII. All excellent games.
