In my opinion, the best game ever. Final Fantasy IX is very different thematically to FFVII and FFVIII since it returns to its roots. Instead of a modern world with mobiles and emails, the setting is pretty simple (although there are airships). It truly feels like a fantasy game and one that is done extremely well.
The characters are all unique and are brought to life by a beautifully written script. Nobuo Uematsu returned for his last solo FF sound track and it was amazing. From the beginning piece 'The Place I'll Return to Someday' to the emotionally powerful 'You're not alone', the music never fails to pull at those heart strings.
The gameplay is solid and enjoyable despite lacking any uniqueness. Which brings me onto another point about FFIX in that it was intended to be a throw back to the earlier Final Fantasys. In that respect the plot, characters and setting were not ground breaking. But all these aspects were done so damn well that Sakaguchi, the series founder called it the best Final Fantasy yet. Uematsu said the same.
In conclusion, FFIX is a magnificent game although it failed to make the impact that many FF fans (such as me) feel it deserved. So, for those of you who haven't played it, go play it now! It is more than just a game, the experience and memories may well last you a lifetime.

Get the Fantastic Four mug.1. Forming in 1998, this band is the brainchild of modern compositional experimentalist, Mike Patton. Other members include Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Buzz Osborne (Melvins), and Trevor Dunn (Mr. Bungle). The first band to release an album on Patton's independent record label, Ipecac Records. Helping to redefine post-modern metal, this band has released four albums to date. Their albums include Fantomas (1999), The Director's Cut (2001), Delirium Cordia (2004), and Suspended Animation (2005). None of which are exactly alike. Ranging in themes from comic book suspense, movie score covers, surgical horror, and cartoon cut & paste mayhem. Arguably one of the most challenging and talented group of musicians in the new millenium. The music can only be described as unique. Definitely not for the faint of heart. Rapid start-stop tempos mixed with vast expanses of heavy soundscapes and precise execution of complex time changes. Live performances prove to the music fan why this band is not to be taken lightly. With Patton directing traffic, you can see that this band is capable of anything. Truly one of the most ground-breaking bands of the avant garde modern era.
