Well is it? I mean, so much happens in this game.
From the Evil Forest to Madain Sari - everything just seems so perfect. Seriously, whenever I play the game I always spend at leat 70 hours on it; I can't get enough. The story is just so enchanting and the characters are magnificent! I can see myself playing this game for the rest of my life.

So?

uhmm. its not bad. a good game, just not worth playing again imo. but FFVII and FFX, thats another story! those were better i think. FFVII has probably the best story in any FF game, and so does X, they are the best oens for their storyline and overall gameplay. IX would be after them.

Love it. And the first meeting with Black Waltz 3 pretty much doubles it's greatness.

It's by far my favorite, but I think that, overall, VI is a better game. I can't pick any other RPG I've played that I enjoyed nearly as much, though. It's superb.

Absolutely! To me, mind that, FF9 is the greatest FF. It just has a better storyline that FF7 and FF8. I have played the 2 said games before FF9 and I still think that this Final Fantasy where there's a monkey tail is the most greatest FF I have ever played. But that's my opinion. I'm just voicing out my point of view.

So yeah, back at your question, yep! This is the greatest FF! I would replay it if our Playstation isn't broken.... :cry:

The game is brilliant. The gameplay, the way you learn techniques is especially good.The music is by far the best out of the FF's (7 close behind). But the only problem is that they had a few unpopular characters.

Zidane - Tail...need I say more. Well actually I do, I found that other than his appearance (eg.Extra large hips and girlish features) he didn't have the charisma that Cloud and maybe even Squall had.

Dagger - I think people found it annoying how she and Zidane never got together, there wasnt much of a romance. Tifa and Aeris were absoloutley in love with cloud, and Rinoa didnt try to hide her feelings for squall either. There were a few times she got intimiate, but not enough.

Steiner - Ok this guy was plain annoying, he did tend to get a bit better towards the end where he decided that Zidane was not such a bad guy, but its people like him that discourage people to play final fantasy 9.

Vivi - One of the better characters, Cute, Vunerable, how could you hate em?

Freya - She wasn't TOO popular but I found her concept interesting. She was some sort've rat (lol dont know actual race).In ff7,ff8 they were all human. It was nice to have a different race.

Quina - His, or her character concept was pretty dumb. Some fat freak who felt obliged to go on a deady quest in order to find more frogs? Atleast the other characters have an excuse for joining the quest.

Amarant - Came a bit too late in the game for me to warm up to him much. General character concept it cool.

Eiko - Alright...Kind've annoying but she later learnt that dagger outclassed her so she decided to shut up.

Kuja - Kinda femine. But a cool villain none the less. Mainly because when Bahamaut attacked him front on. He bled a tiny bit and then laughed. Nah he was cool all over.

But overall.

1.FF10
2.FF7
3.FF9 <----- (3rd! Pretty good!)
4.FF6
5.FF8
6.FF10-2

eh. ffvii blows everything away just because it's more classic. (AFTER the previous ffs)

ff ix was good but there were plenty of parts that i just didn't want to go through the second and third time around...

I don't remember any parts where it's kind of boring or any type of expression where it seems not interesting... I always thought all scenese were pretty good and satisfying. But that's your opinion anyways. =)

I love this game. My favourite FF, and actually my favourite game ever. Decent story, decent characters, awesome music. Perfect.

The worlds of FFVII and FFVIII were uninspiring to me and everyone was human which made it kinda a turn off for me excluding Nanaki.

As for the girly features on guys, no one appreciates the kawaii bishounen these days.

The reason Kuja wears a thong is because Japan is going through some rought times during those years. Men wanted to have long died hair and wear something dramatic *dramatic as in they wanted to be Jpop stars or are from Korea xD* I'm not sure if you've ever been to asia~but seriously...I'd recommend going not just to th safe parts of the area your staying at.

And yes I did think that this game surpassed all of the other FF's for the PS. The storyline was great and intense. The character's were very believable. As well as the music, it was wonderful. Every battle was awesome. Especially the boss battles, the Ozma one omg intense! IT WAS L33T!!! PH34R MY L33TN3SS!

The world and setting for it was wonderful, the graphics and FMV's were superb.

I wouldn't have thought that "decent" meant "perfect…"
How does that work? :confused:

Final Fantasy IX was a masterpiece in every sense of the word, but it wasn't super fun to play. The battle system was slow and aggravating, and that's probably why I don't play it as much as the other PS1-era FFs.

That aside, though, every aspect of the game's design, save the battle system, was executed beautifully. The pre-rendered backgrounds are amazing and the game used just about all the power that the PS1 was capable of. I liked the way the story progressed, and I loved the music. In fact, I've sat and just watched the intro loop over and over on occassion.
