The last of the series for the PS2. It features a world with waring lands. One person here has been bashing the game without even playing it to actually see thats it's a great game (lunar shadows. The Graphics are great, the music is great (not better than FFX though).
The game is very difficult. Unlike previous games where you arrive at and area via cut scene instead you have to get yourself there while in constant battle. Getting to your main objective may take several deaths, retries, and starting over the entire game.
The New battle system is easy to master after a few hours of play to obtain and learn everything for it.
The game proves to be the best of the series, even though it may not be the most popular, but we know popularity isn't everything. Everything in the game has been given more detail than previous games.
It's a game worth buying if you want to challenge everything you've learned about the series. In short it's and incredible game. I have no qualms about buying it for 50 bucks.
I also find the game to be a medium to seeing how the system for FF13 will be seeing as how it's similar.

I can't wait to beat it, then replay it, and replay and replay. Final Fantasy 12 is game worth the wait and price.

For its time, final fantasy VII was a damn good game, because taking all things into consideration, it was made about 10 years ago. It is wrong to say that the graphics are bad compared to FFX-2 or whatever because the game was limited by the technology at the time. during the wandering around bits, yes the characters were very blocky, the backgrounds, while beautiful, felt a bit plastic and yes it is annoying that you take one step and suddenly ur in a battle. however character development was deep, the storyline is incredible (a bit rushed at the end perhaps, maybe they felt 40 hours was a getting a bit too long), the music is undeniably memorable, and the graphics, while sometimes poor, are saved by some of the battle animations (summons, spells etc) and CGI sequences. A lot of money and time was put into it and it shows.
Because of its mainstream popularity and huge fanbase, FFVII is also known mostly by those who prefer other FF games as Final Fanboy 7

Get the Final Fantasy VII mug.A roleplaying game created by the popular video game company Square-Enix (called Squaresoft at game's release). It stands out among the other RPGs in the Final Fantasy series for its primary focus on a love story, as well as a far more futuristic world. Due to the success and hype of its predecessor, Final Fantasy 7, the eighth title has become a subject of deep controversy as to whether it is a competent game. The mass of gamers who had never touched an RPG often make their decision of the better game between VII and VIII (the Roman numerals are more often used) based on whichever they played first, and their prejudice is unwavered because of their close-mindedness and a dedication to their side of the argument.
Aside from that, FFVIII, shortened as all of the Final Fantasy games typically are, is a far more realistic take on Square-Enix's franchise.
The story, lead by the taciturn and often-dubbed "emo" main character, Squall, follows a group of mercenary soldiers in their late teens who are dragged into a battle with an evil sorceress, a battle that would likely decide the fate of the planet. Along the way, Squall's team grows: party members include Squall's instructor, Quistis Trepe, two fellow mercenary friends, Selphie Tilmitt and Zell Dincht, a mercenary from another force, Irvine Kinneas, and the leader of a half-baked rebel faction, Rinoa Heartilly. Throughout the story, the characters' histories and personalities are revealed, and their innate morals and desires are tested, thrown upon the tides of situations the world forces at them.
The games play mechanic is typical of previous FF games, including numerous side-quests, extensive conversations driven by text-bubbles to continue the story, and travel across a world map (a smaller-scaled version of the world through which the player reaches new locations). Along the way, battles are fought, most often popping up at random invervals in the well-known "Random Encounter" style of many RPGs to date. Utilizing Guardian Forces, mystical creatures with massive power, the player can attach a stock of spells drawn from enemies or at numerous "draw points" to individual stats, increasing their power in that area.
The learning curve on this "junction system" seems to be extremely wide, as many people give up on the game entirely when they cannot understand it. Meanwhile, those who pick up on the simple process of stocking and junctioning spells often also give up on the game, as the ease of obtaining extremely powerful spells and high stats breaks the difficulty, making the game extremely easy.
Despite its shortcomings and the oft comparisons to other games, particularly FFVII, Final Fantasy VIII is a strong game in its own right, with high scores in many official game reviews as well as a ferocious and defensive fanbase.

Get the Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children mug.A Fantasy Basement is essentially a place where, once fucked up, your dreams will be realized. Spreading like wildfire across the world, fantasy basements are becoming known as THE places to be on a friday or saturday night by High Schoolers. Generally they are an unfinished basement in a house where the parents or guardians are lax about underage intoxication and or sexual behaviors. There is no limit to the number of people allowed in this haven at a time, however, generally speaking, the more the merrier. "The fantasy", as it is sometimes known, spawns memories that teens will never forget, ranging from absurd hookups to "bro-outs" on a thursday night. Needless to say this is one place that anything is possible.
