Thread: When/what did you guys start

    Default When/what did you guys start

    when did everyone start playing final fantasy, and which FF did you first play?


    i was like 5 years old and my older sister got final fantasy II (FF4) for the SNES. i always liked the game, even though i never knew how to play. :/ in the second grade, i found the game and started playing it and i found it to be pretty fun, even though i had no goddamn idea as to what was going on storyline wise. the years passed, and i finally started playing FFIV again in the 5th grade and i beat it

    I played FFIV first back on the SNES, same as you. I kept getting killed by Kain in Fabul and I thought I lost so I reset the game every time.

    That was probably back in 1993.

    Fighter was me
    Black belt was brother 1
    White mage was brother 2
    black mage was mother

    it was fun!

    I started playing final fantasy with V. It's still one of my favourites. I have played computer games from a very early ages but the UK struggled with game releases back then. I'm surprised I got a copy at all.
    Played every one since, I really enjoyed it. Kind of tagged to other Squaresoft (as they were back then) games.

    I think my first Final Fantasy was probablly VII or VIII around 2000. Was only about 9 years old. What times.

    Okay not being snaggy but do you mean 1999? FFVIII didn't even come out in Japan until 1999.

    My first one played was FF7, I didn't even know about final fantasy before that. My brother got me it when it first came out in england, I didn't really like ti at first but it was so cool and completed it twice before realising that there was 1,2,3 etc xD
    So then I went to find all the rest of the ff's.

    FF1, on the NES, back in the day.

    Although after that, the only one I played for the next 6 years was FF: Mystic Quest on the SNES (I borrowed a friends SNES one Christmas, as I had gotten away from gaming at that point), and then FF8 in 2001 (my roomate at the time had a PS1 and had borrowed a friend's copy of FF8, and yes that was many years later). I was hooked all over again. Then the following winter (2002) I bought F7 while in Houston, and played on the same roomate's PS1 (we were both down there for a workterm).

    When I graduated university in 2003 I played a FFVI ROM on computer. Finally my girlfriend got me a PS2 that year for Christmas, and subsequently bought FFX. That lead to FFX-2 (yuk), FF8, then back to FF7, then FF9, and now FFXII.

    I still have yet to play FF2, FF3, FF4, FF5, and the tactics games, even though I first played (and was highly addicted to) FF1 when it first came out. I even borrowed my cousin's Nintendo Power FF1 Guide (the one with the red cover). Funny, how I never got back into it until many years later.

    I started with FF7. It came with the PSX that I bought from my friend back in '98, and boy am I glad I decided to give the game a go instead of trading it in!

    '98 FF IV for the SNES

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    the year was 1997. my brother and cousins were still playing on the Super Nintendo, and just finished completing Zelda: A Link To The Past. then, my brother borrowed the PlayStation along w/Final Fantasy VII from a good friend, and to his enjoyment, he bought his own copies.
