holy shit... could you guys imagine if they redid 6 for ps3 instead of 7? Having that scene where Cyan's entire kingdom is wiped out by Kefka in full detail, or the ghost train, or even having to do Locke's sneaking part in that one town as a Sam Fisher type deal without getting caught? Day-ummm

Imagine fighting a flying, giant pink octopus in the sky, in glorious 3D!

The sword is better. 9999 baby!

ha, equipped with the relics that let you equip another sword (excaliber, no doubt) and 4x each. Then have Gogo mimic it against a ZoneEater and cactuars for experience.
 
When is the last time a FF main series has been subpar? not since the nes. booyah. Wait and see, FF12 will stomp ass as all FFs do.

New area? Looks like the final area but it cant be, Yang shoudnt be in the party, Edge should. Cant tell whats going on in the bottom half.
 
Some kind of cursed village in the bottom picture (should be different from the town of pigs, minis, and toads). A new Bahamut though in the top pic.

According to a guy on GameFAQS, the Bahamut is called Lunar Bahamut.

People over there are speculating that you could change party members in this version of FFIV.

As for the bottom shot, that same guy from GameFAQS said the town is definately Mysidia, but the townspeople are all Piggy/Toad/Mini. A new event?

FFVI is far from perfect. That game gets boring as fuck once World of Ruin starts.
Everyone says that, but I found the second half of the game to be fun as hell, especially when you try to rush Kefka's tower with Celes, Sabin, Edgar, and Setzer right at the beginning. :D

Is FFVI advance going to include any sort of bonus at all, or is it a straight port?
 
God, FF6 is the my favortie game of all time. The only thing it lacked was difficulty in the last quarter of the game and an ultra hard secret boss. Everything else was totally perfect.

I've also been dying for a remake of this...screw FF7...give me FF6 or CT.

Has there been any info released regarding whether these are straight ports or if they'll have any extras?
 
What's wrong, Himu? Don't like how it stops holding your hand? 2nd half rocks for variety.

Exactly..can go try out stuff in about whatever order you want. What's boring about that compared to the same dot by dot first half?

The little blurb to the right of the picture mentions a cursed village event, so it could be. Luna/Lunar Bahamut is in that pic, yeah (as opposed to Bahamut and Dark Bahamut).

Oh, and on this continual, never-ENDING whining about Nomura's "gay" and "metrosexual" art, and the pining for MANLY MAN FF's of yore...

Dudes, if all the old FF games were made TODAY, they'd all look as "faggy" as you folks fear and loathe. The only thing that saved your manhood was 16-bit sprites and carts too tiny to show off Amano's artwork. Enough with the Nomura bashing - I do not in fact think all his character designs are that great, but it's just retarded beyond words at this point :) This has always been the style of Final Fantasy to some degree.

Who else gets hard from the thought of playing FFVI while taking a shit?


Final Fantasy 6 notwithstanding, the fact that you get hard thinking about taking a shit in general is disturbing enough.

I have thought about this. Actually a DS remake would be more than enough. There are two directions they can go with a total remake.

Use Amano style art for the 3D models, or go with the original's more cutesy3-D rendition based on the original in-game art.

oh, and just a reminder to everyone. When FF 1&2 was released for the GBA in 2004, SquareEnix had a questionnaire card asking what users wanted to see on the DS/GBA.

The games include:


Final Fantasy III
Final Fanatasy IV
Final Fantasy V
Final Fantasy VI
The Chocobo (series)
Seiken Densetsu
The Romancing SaGa (series)
Front Mission (series)
Chrono Trigger
Hanjuku Hero

Stupid question:

Final Fantasy 6 in Japan was Final Fantasy 3 (SNES) in the US right? I get confused, need a good webpage with FF resources. :)
Correct.

It goes like this:
Code:
Format      JP Title                 US Title
NES         Final Fantasy            Final Fantasy
NES         Final Fantasy II
NES         Final Fantasy III

SNES        Final Fantasy IV         Final Fantasy II
SNES        Final Fantasy V
SNES        Final Fantasy VI         Final Fantasy III
It's a little confusing, sure, but it gets even worse when you realize they did this with a few other franchises, too. ;)

Final Fantasy was sub-par on the NES? Did somebody go back in time to screw it up, or something? :P

I don't even get how Nomura came up, as he isn't even involved with Final Fantasy XII...

Alot of people "blame" him for making FF characters look like that, while not realising they've almost always looked like that because that's how alot of Amano's designs looked.

DON'T EVEN GET MY HOPES UP.
 
I still enjoy the World of Ruin. It's a lot better than making the first 85% of an RPG completely linear, only to open up a bunch of sidequests and distractions just as the main adventure is building towards a conclusion.

I wonder, was FF3 that good and popular to merit a full blown 3D remake? Why not go with FF6 instead? Ever since they added the FMV intro on the PSX version of FF6 I've wanted the game to be remade.
FFIII has an ancient and obscure voodoo curse woven deep into the game's programming code. Any and all attempts to port/re-release the game have met with misfortune and even death for anyone who has been involved.

After Square merged with Enix, Square got access to Enix's exclusive Secret Vault of Hidden Texts, realized the mistake they made in the code, and with the help of Enix managed to burn the offensive creation of hell, and fed it's ashes to a slime.

Square is making a fully-unique polygonal remake of FFIII to ensure that nobody is ever tempted to try and ressurect the cursed 2D version of the game.

Don''t see why so many people want remakes.

Take a great and ageless game, drenched with nostalgia, and then add a coat of current gen graphics = Not a bad thing at all.

Not to mention the possibility of it's music fully realized with an orchestra/better synth.
 
I'll definitely be buying every one of them - but will probably end up having the most fun with the FF4-6 ports. I'm a little nervous about 12 because Vagrant Story was rather dull to me.
 
Store is free though, and there's only 1 Kitchen Knife in the game, so eh? And you can't dupe Excalibur in the WSC game, so the good stuff is one time only!

If you can swap party members, Yang should hopefully be better than Edge later on.

The difference is Amano has good taste.
