I'm particularly interested in playing IV and VI because I never got to finish them. I grew up watching my cousin who was a year older and whose parents bought him lots of video games play through those two and enjoyed them vicariously. Have always wanted to finish the games myself though.

Recently purchased and watched Advent Children Complete on BluRay. This version is sooo much better than the original (approx 30 min more footage and some edits to certain scenes), and the extras that basically took you down memory lane for the FFVII universe did a great job of reminding me how great FFVII was and making me curious about trying those games I missed (Crisis Core and Dirge, although I heard they weren't great).

meh, the game was good but AC...... Square just isn't good at making movies man.
and considering how bad the other Final Fantasy Movie was, I think Square should start focusing on what they're supposed to do, making new decent games ffs.

I've played FF1, FF2, FF3, FF4, FF5, FF6, FF7, FF8, FF10, FF10-2, FF12, and FF13. Oh and Crisis Core.

I've beaten FF1, FF2, FF6, FF7, FF8, FF10, and Crisis Core.

I own FF1 for the NES (yes I have the original) and FF8 for PC, and I'll probably pick up FF7 when it comes out on steam, though I really want the HD update for FF7 so I can get that. I used to own Crisis Core until my PSP broke. I had emulators for 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. And my younger brother has the remake of 3.

I still really like the original, 6, 7, and 8. I would have a hard time picking a favorite out of those. I really liked the draw and junction system in 8. I liked the materia system in 7. I didn't mind the limited spells per day approach of FF1, and I disliked how they switched to a MP system for the remakes as that made the game too easy. FF2 had the worst leveling system ever invented, but I still went ahead and beat that game.

My friend had 9 but I had 0 interest in playing it.

Sorry to disappoint all the FF9 lovers, but I simply have no interest in playing it.

Also, completely forgot that I've played Dissidia and the sequel to Dissidia. I have beaten Dissidia but not the sequel.

I know a lot of people like FF tactics, but I won't play that one either because for me it isn't a FF game because the combat system is too Turn Based Strategy. If I want to play a T. B. S., then I'll play Fire Emblem (yes I know Fire Emblem is technically a Turn based Strategy RPG), Advance Wars, or Civilization.

So because it's a turn based with a final fantasy name you wont play it? You seem to enjoy TBS games, but because it has FF in it you won't play? I'm not really following your logic. FF12, 13, and 13-2 is not "FF combat style" either.

The gameplay was a lot better than most FF games, and the story was good until around half way in, when it took a trip down the toilet. (Developers somehow decided that a JRPG has to be cliched?)

Regardless, I liked the setting a lot, and the dreams and the main characters. The kids didn't bug me that much, because at least the only annoying characters are children, the other characters weren't over the top "WHY ME!?" emo schmucks bemoaning their place in life like most FF games. The dreams were great.
