I would say no, really depends on if you want to play The After.

The Japanese version has a very beneficial glitch with the junction system. I think it's fun to use it, so that's the version I prefer to play.

I'd pick up VI, VII, and IX for sure...

...wait a minute.

I don't have 300 hours to finish those. I mean I do... but I'd rather not.

You could finish all three of those games at at least 3 times each in 300 hours.

Not the way I play them. My old FFVII and IX saves were well past 100 hours each, maxed everything, secret everything.

Might pick up 8/9... just bought IV Collection the other week at full price, goddamn it.

Though I must confess, I would've loved for 1 and Crisis Core to be on the list in the FFT:WotL price range.

Isn't it cheaper than the iOS versions at the regular price? It's $10 regular on PSN vs $15.99 (iPhone)/$17.99 (iPad).

VIII is worth getting if you want to see the pretty graphics and don't mind angst-ridden protagonists everywhere. The combat and story are both weaker than in VII or IX so that could be a dealbreaker. VIII's cinematic sequences are probably as strong as IX but the Nomura designs may not be everyone's cuppa tea.

Well, I was talking about FFVI, but yes, FFV is only in Japanese for the SFC/SNES. However, the GBA version outclasses all versions of FFV, so that's really not an issue.

It is the only FF game with timed hits, though, if you're into that.

I used the data install for the PSP UMD version, and the loading times were pretty much nonexistent. The digital version should be just as fast (it's certainly the case for Dissidia 012).

GF Junction was also neat. Neither makes up for the Draw system. Or the GF Boost system.

Didn't say it was terrible, just weaker than the combat systems in VII/IX.

Is it possible to go over one hundred hours on FF7?

Breeding chocobos without a guide takes a long time, so it could be that.

Compulsively getting a mastered set of all possible materia for every party member, could be that.

Trying to beat the arcade game that cheats, could be that.

Falling asleep every once in awhile during the middle of disc 2, could be that.

PSX version is bad, load times suck.

GBA version is bad, music sucks.

What the heck? I thought I had a digital version of WotL already.

This will be like the fourth or fifth time I've bought some form of FFT over the years. *ignores the other FF games on sale*

Wait, first that Prologus crap and now vanilla Dissidia? Who on earth keeps thinking that anything besides Duodecim matters?

Well I forget about the Materia because I wait for the NC and farm Magic Pots and the Red dot enemies for massive Exp and AP.

What are the chances that Sony doesn't end up making ps1 games compatible with vita? Playing them on my vita is the only reason for buying them so if it doesn't end up happening its just going to be a waste of money.

Going to get FF4 and FFT(psp). So I only played FF7-13. What else would people recommend since I've never played the older classics. I know ff6 is considered by many the best, but unfortunately its not on sale =/.

Thinking about downloading VI for the eventual Vita support.

Are the load times really bad in general or just compared to other versions? If we're talking about 1-2 second menu loading then that won't be a problem with me at all.

Here's an example, I think it's a good representative though it's the original PSX version (I think...as opposed to the PSN version)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...bw3fudLk#t=56s

They try really hard to hide it with the fade ins and outs

That end of battle fade out was hilariously slow. Still, the loading doesn't seem too painful. I tend to play RPGs at a slow pace anyway.

I don't think so. Doesn't 012 include the first Dissidia story or something when you beat the game?
