This was one of the earliest RPG's I played. This, Phantasy Star, Dragon Warrior, and Ys were the games that got me turned onto them.

I love FF. I have played both the original NES version and the PSX remake. I've never played the GBA version however.

Never really got into the Final Fantasy series. More of a Phantasy Star fan 🙂

The GBA version's pretty good... albeit much easier than the original NES version. I walked up to Chaos and smacked him with a fly swatter and he went down hard 😉

This game is a great game... even if some of those "FFVII Recruits" didn't like it very much. It's not as big on the story end as the other FF's mainly because this was supposed to be a final effort. The final gamble, and well... it succeeded.

But... I was never really a big fan of the "Spells per Day" system... It works great in D&D, but in a Videogame... it just doesn't flow for me.

In the end... it was a fantastic game for its time. Much deserving of this award.

This was my first console RPG. My grandma bought me a NES for Christmas in '89 and I bought FF soon after. I still play it to this day. I'd probably be playing newer installments if the series hadn't gone downhill.

The first in the legendary RPG Series. It will probably be a valuable antique someday when Final Fantasy XXVIII is released for PS7
