To all you naysayers who believe that final fantasy VII is the best final fantasy of all time, i have one question for you...
Has final fantasy VII ever had a commercial made for it??!
YouTube - Final Fantasy IX Coca Cola Commercial
granted its a weird commercial, but its still a commercial! :D
Oh look, another one of these threads.
well, i believe that FFVII is a good game, but its very overrated...:p
closes this thread...
This topic is being run into the ground.
:mad2:
ANGRYWOLF, this is commonly referred to as backseat moderating. We kindly ask that if you think forum rules are being broken or bent that you don't post about it, but rather use the report button on the post (on the opening post if it concerns the whole thread) to report it to staff, and we'll determine if an action needs to be taken. This thread can stay open. -Rantzien
those are commercials about the game itself, but the one that i posted is a corporate sponsor (coca-cola) that paid square-enix so they could use their characters for a commercial, and i think that is amazing!
YouTube - Japanese Coca Cola commercial with Final Fantasy X
Oh, and for the record, I like this mentality of "Let's not judge games on their own merits, but rather the marketing around them." Nice.
with a mod by saying what I said...
I wasn't intending to butt heads with a mod.
Although I have had a tendency to do that in the past on other boards/forums...:D
I prefer FFVII to both FFVIII and IX. But that's just my opinion.
I feel like the TC could have said it on another thread without starting another thread and wasting bandwidth.But that's just my opinion.
:D
i feel the same way, im just voicing my opinion, if i came out sounding mean, it was completely unintentional.
So lets start out like decent people. why do you like final fantasy 7 over 9?:jess:
Yeah, FFX had a coke commercial too. It wasn't nearly as cool of course. :)
My bad, then.Quote:

no by all means go there! i want to hear your opinion!!! lol :love:
Ok, so instead of having an unstructured debate between newbies about Coke commercials, lets get the facts together:
FFIX doesnt have:
A whiney emo tit of a main character who has 0 personailty
A woman who has more breasts than use
An increadibly annoying storyline which I find causes replayability to be hindered by. (Due to having to sit through the whole 'Clouds lifestream past' bit)
Materia
FFIX has:
Decent sidequests
Ozma
Quina
A better storyline
Epicness.
Albiet, the trance system and cardgame lets IX down a little, but it is still one of the best Final Fantasys. FFVII fanboys: stfu
& AngryWolf: I know your name gives it away, but chill out. d1028 may have different opinions (and the right opinion :jess:) but that doesn't mean that the thread has to be closed.
why are so many people excited about being able to download the game on the PSN network ?
Of course I would whine if people were trying to kill me constantly and I had constant encounters with monsters trying to eat me and I found out I had to try to save the world.
Who wouldn't whine under that set of circumstances ?:roll2
The only thing comparable would be vets who have served in wars and the high amount of stress related problems those vets face including suicidal trendencies and antisocial behavior.
Shrugs.:eep:
While IX is my favourite, I still don't think you're being very constructive yourself. Opinions are fine, it's the way in which you present it that has a negative effect on how others percieve your posts.Quote:

shrugs...:eep:
I haven't replayed FFIX in quite some time. Maybe I should replay it.
If I can get finished with my replay of X-2 I might pick it up again.
:eep:
I replayed IX more times than i can count and it never gets old. And to be fair, i will replay my final fantasy VII cause i havent played it in god knows how long :p
well, Angrywolf, happy gaming :jess:
:quina:

A commercial for Coca-Cola doesn't instantly make FFIX better than any game. Look into the game to find how superior it is to other FFs. For example, the characters were all put well into the story, the setting is more like what veteran Final Fantasy players expect from an FF, it houses the most realistic romantic subplot in the PS1 era and possibly the entire series. But certainly not due to a Coca-Cola commercial, it doesn't make me want to play FFIX, it makes me want to drink coke.
look at the charecter stitistics (mispelled), in 7 all the chaecters seemed human 9even red XIII, who wasn't) in 9, each individual charecter has he/his own goals and opinions about things, their own agendas, and each one contrasted the other.
steiner wanted to kill zidane (basicly)
steiner how ever did work with zidane to protect garnet.
steiner got along great with vivi, who was great pals with zidane
garnet and zidane had a lot of friction between them, but the still wanted to be near eatch other.
which then puts itself back at the top of this list
i wont add the other four into this mix cause my brain would blow up.....

GOLD coloured title.
Seriously though, but fans who prefer IX over VII may appreciate the return to traditional medieval/feudalistic settings. It pays a lot of tribute to previous FFs, giving a lot fan service to those who looked hard enough. Just off the top of my head, FFV music can be played in Black Mage Village and in Lindblum weapon shop, Zidane makes a passing reference to Cloud.
Kuja is a brilliant villain too. You don't feel much for Sephiroth and his pining for his mother, since a) his mother's a freak and b) not really his mother. But when Kuja goes nuts and finds out his fate, it's kind of sad.
I think everyone took the OP far too seriously
But FFIX didn't revolutionize JRPG's...
It says so in the file description of the PSN download of FFVII!!!
FFIX was lovely, don't get me wrong, but I find it to be a little overrated xD
I like FFIX and FFVII about the same.
Only see FFIX super-hard fanboy erection love here tbh.Quote:

But I always get bored at some point. I don't really know why, but I always lose interest and just stop playing.
I understand it was their intent so it doesn't make too much sense to criticize, but basically it felt too old-school to me. I really don't like Zidane (I'd apparently rather have an emo idiot to a flippant one), and the characters I do like - Freya, Beatrix, and Lani, especially - get a hell of a lot less time than I'd like and that, in Freya's case, than they deserve.
I dunno. I can see why people would like it but it just doesn't work for me. In contrast to FFVII, where I am on my 21st playthrough. Though this means less than it seems; I must have played through the first half of FFIX about a dozen times :p
both games are fantastic. ff9 could have been even better if they had made better use of simultaneous parties like in ff6, and if they didn't close off towns on disc changes. but ff7 has its flaws too, the biggest being graphics, overwrought Cloud story scenes, and only three characters in the party at a time. i really enjoyed playing both of them, though.
I only wish they had done this game with a more serious art style for the characters, but I still loved this game a lot.
I think they're both very good games
edit: nvm, I thought we were talking about ffviii. haven't played ffvii.
You all fail. This thread has limitless nerd rage possibility and you had to spoil it by being "reasonable." Pshaw.
FFVII is one of the worst games ever. It's all about some emo punk with an Oedipus Complex who wants to drop a rock on the world for no real reason. Then you look at the heroes and we have Mr. "I Have A Small Penis" as a hero. And he's also emo.
Then there's Mr. T, Ms. Big Tits, Miko, Wannabe Ninja, a Dog, a Robot Kitty and Cid.
Cid is cool.
FFVII is just overrated and terrible. One of the worst games I've ever had the misfortune of playing.
Okay I think FFIX is better but VII is okay. It actually does a few things better than 9. I like how in 7 every party member got their own subplot that we get to resolve in the game. IX kinda forgot about most of the cast after Disk 2.
I like how the VII commercials all specify that it's not a movie. Also I love Japanese commercials, they're always so much cooler than english ones.
On the topic... naaaaah
