Final Fantasy VI (PS)

FFVI remains today, as one of the finest RPG's ever made with a memorable cast and an expansive story... Lets get started on the most obvious thing, the graphics. If you like fancy, modern graphics then you are going to despise this and that's your loss. FFVI has classic 2D visuals which convey the story better than most polygonal RPG's. Every character is quite detailed and can instantly be separated from the rest by their distinctive looks. Towns too, are very detailed and feature some nice little features like hidden back-doors etc. Every town is fairly distinctive as each will include one unique location that others do not have.

One thing that has continually annoyed me for as long as I can remember is how many gamers ignore games with graphics that are average or worse. My dad's one of them - give him a Resident Evil or a Tomb Raider and he will happily play them through to completion (and belive me, he can complete them!), but when I offered him Shadowman, a little like Tomb Raider and Resident Evil in many ways, he refused on the grounds he only wanted to play games with good, smooth graphics. His loss. I got the impression he was in the minority, but what percentage of console owners have a retro compilation or even a 2D game in their collection? Not a lot, because although everyone will ...  Read the complete review

Welcome to my first review in a LONG while. Those who remember me may want to exit the building, about now. I'm not going to bandy words. Well... I probably am going to, but this is a review of which I am going to hold no punches. Final Fantasy: The game genre of which I have devoted the culmination of my lifes entire orientation. I don't really care IF i get a degree or not (well... I do actually...) But to live without Final Fantasy is to me, like living without air, or stimulation. I am, quite bluntly obsessed, (except for 8 which also quite blunty, sucked) . So imagine the terrible excitement which gripped me with quite a casual air when I ...  Read the complete review

I purchased a copy of Final Fantasy VI after reading a review from squaresoft. It said that they were bringing out Final Fantasy VI (Final Fantasy III for SNES) for a reduced price of £9.99. The game itself is a good R.P.G with a strong storyline. With square intending to bring out Final Fantasy x for PS2 they needed a way to further advertise it. And what better way than with a demo and classic RPG for under £10. The graphics for this game are good for 2 dimensional but still could be improved. The game itself, however, has a deep and involving storyline and has a lot of characters with their own personal background. Each person has their own ...  Read the complete review

Final Fantasy 6 is the one of the most interesting games I have ever played on. Straight away it is an interesting game. All the Final Fantasy?s are about magic and swords and that lot but there are never wars using magic that can destroy the world, that is what really got me playing, the difference in this game to the others of the series. There are a maximum of 13 characters, 12 which are normal and in the book and one, Gogo, which is a bonus/Secret character which you get near the end. The whole point in the game is to stop an evil emperor and thus stopping ?the War of Magi? repeating itself as it happened hundreds of years ago. You have to go around towns like in all ...  Read the complete review
