Final Something-or-Other...

by BaronSamedi3 BaronSamedi3 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Games, , Feb 28 '02
Pros: At least it looks pretty
Cons: Whose idea was that horrible battle system?
Remember back when Final Fantasy 6 was released for the Super NES? All the fanboys were yelling about how it couldn't get any better, and how the series could only get worse from there. With the release of Final Fantasy 7, the fanboys...

...it's a Final Fantasy all right...

by misterduck , Feb 17 '02
Pros: Graphics, FMV, quality, "Final Fantasy" feel
Cons: Need a PHD in nuclear physics to learn the gameplay, too much drama
In 97', Squaresoft released Final Fantasy 7 for the Sony Playstation - to put it mildy, the game was friggin' awesome. To put it honestly, I don't think a single friend of mine in high school didn't have a copy that was religiously played for the entire...

My First Fantasy

by beowulph , Jan 04 '02
Pros: Realistic characters, awsome storyline, graphics, plot development, character development, et cetera....
Cons: The orphan scenerio was boreing, dull, you get my point.
Okay, so I have heard from allot of people that Final Fantasy VIII is the worst game that they have ever played. But-seeing that it was the first Final Fantasy I have ever played-I have my right to defend it. And yes, I also have some things that I would...

Final Fantasy side trip

by asamanh , Dec 09 '01
Pros: Graphics
Cons: NO storyline
Before I start I'm just going to say that this is an updated version of this epinion. The first one was my first epinion ever and it was one of those one paragraph ones.

I can't really decided if I like FF8 better than the other Final...

An Artistic Breakthrough

by scrptrjn316 , Nov 30 '01
Pros: Awesome graphics, lots of excitement, interesting side quests & card game
Cons: High difficulty level, junction system (see below)
I was amazed when I saw FF8's graphics (having been used to the Super Nintendo versions). The characters were startlingly life-like and the rest of the graphics were also very realistic.
The main characters are Squall, a moody military academy...

A Good Change To RPGs

by tmc2000 , Nov 30 '01
Pros: Long; Fun and almost never boring; Great looking videos
Cons: Junction system is really, really complex
Final Fantasy 8 is the 8th game in the Final Fantasy series, which is a very successful series as you may be able to tell. Final Fantasy is an RPG in which you walk around in a world, going along the storyline, and meeting people who join your group....

The worst Final Fantasy game isn't all that bad!

by antsteverpgs , Oct 27 '01
Pros: FFVIII had some of the best graphics of its time, and still does today.
Cons: The battle system isn't bad, but it could be a lot better.
Back in the summer of 1999, I had just gotten a PlayStation, along with Final Fantasy VII and Legend of Legaia. At the time, I was busy gawking at the graphics of FFVII. That fall, however, something caught my attention. I saw in a magazine the words...

Final Fantasy 8: A Masterpiece

by TweekGirl , Oct 25 '01
Pros: Great Graphics, Sound, and Storyline
Cons: Summoning time is too long
Square made an astounding advancement in RPG gameplay when they created Final Fantasy 8. With ground breaking graphics and sound, this game stands apart from all other Final Fantasy games in the on going saga. Characters Squall Leonhart Age: 17 ...

As I Walk Through The Cave To Encounter My Death

by Rock_On Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Oct 01 '01
Pros: nice graphics, good storyline
Cons: framerate slows a little at times
The only games that I ever played on my PlayStation were Final Fantasy 7, Final Fantasy 9, and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. I loved Final Fantasy 7 ever since I played a little bit of it at my friend’s house, and so it was the first game I bought with my...

SeeD to the rescue!

by drfell , Aug 14 '01
Pros: Excellent all-round presentation and storyline with deep gameplay
Cons: I loved these guys. When it's over, it hurts.
Having briefly experienced FFVII and loving it I bought this one when it went platinum. I knew from the opening video that this was one spectacular game; projecting the videogaming experience to new plains. After the stunning CG sequence (with a...

Gimme that old time Fallout 2, this game just don't cut it.

by Action_Snark , Aug 11 '01
Pros: Lush graphics, depth, lots of playtime.
Cons: Nonsensical, fragmented plot. Annoying music and characters. Steep learning curve.
One word comes to mind when I think about Final Fantasy 8; Complex. Pretty much everything about this game is complex and complicated. Oh, there are a few simple things in the game, such as basic navigation of the world, and some of the combat system,...

A Love/Hate Relationship

by izzygirl , Aug 04 '01
Pros: Laguna's story, Eyes on Me, FMV cutscenes and Triple Tirade!
Cons: The spectacularily un-amazing story, unlikable characters and the grainy, in-game graphics
What do I think about this game?
Where does my charmed first impression end and my dissapointment set in?

It's a good game, really. It's great the way time back-tracks itself, and the characters mature slowly, yet surely, but it just...

Cons: Poor Battle System, Poor Magic System, Poor GF System...
The Final Fantasy series is the most popular RPG franchise, well on this continent anyways, in Japan Dragon Quest beats Final Fantasy easily. But anyways, back to the review. Final Fantasy VII was extremely revelutionary, and it brought in a healthy...

You can't get much more fantasy than a mid-drift leather bomber

by AreYouReady , Jul 25 '01
Pros: Awesome graphics, better character development than in FF7
Cons: confusing junctioning system
Released shortly after the successful Final Fantasy 7, Final Fantasy 8 has had many a FF fans turn their noses up at it. The reason why? Because they don't believe it's a TRUE Final Fantasy game because there's no real fantasy involved. My thoughts on...
