Eyes on Final Fantasy Plays Final Fantasy I

[Psychotic]

propz to Azar.

I've completed the Final Fantasy games. I've been a member here for five years and I've said all I'm going to say on the subject. I've talked about my favourite characters, my favourite scene, my favourite weapon over and over again, and I suppose it has got stale. Sound familiar?

We're a Final Fantasy forum and most of us don't play the games anymore. Well, let's change that!

February is going to be Final Fantasy I month. Us good folk on your staff are going to play us some Final Fantasy I (I'm going to be playing my Origins edition! But you can play whatever version you have) and I hope you'll be joining us. I'm a competetive guy, and I'd love to give some of you a race to the finish! And I'd love to talk about the game with you guys too.

Basically we're hoping this'll rekindle everyone's love for that classic gaming series, and maybe it'll encourage some people to play a FF they've never played before.

To spice things up, we will be creating challenges, holding FFI related graphics/art/writing contests, and maybe we'll even have an FFI RP. Please participate. All we want you to do is play a great game next month and talk to some good people about it! Not too hard, is it?

So, are you in?

I hired a large man in flannel to threaten me into playing FFI and it never worked. I think this might just be the push I needed to actually play it! Although I suck at challenges. I think my challenge will have to be just beating it and taking a screenshot that I will print and frame.

[Psychotic]

Haha, yeah, just beating the game is going to be considered a challenge.

[Jack]

Since I've just woken up, and have an exam in 2 hrs, I cannot be bothered to check Wikipedia. could you please tell me what platforms FFI is on Psychotic boyo!

[XxSephirothxX]

Beating the game is probably going to be the only challenge I'll be able to achieve, as well. But for you hardcore gamers out there, there will be some impressive stuff to dig your paws into. The competition could get fierce.

Also, you can get FFI on quite a few consoles, but most likely you'll be playing it on:
NES
Playstation 1
Gameboy Advance
Playstation Portable

[Psychotic]

NES, Wonderswan Color, PlayStation, GBA and PSP. Plenty of choice! As I said, I'm going for the PlayStation Origins version.

You realize my original username when I joined was Astos. I will definitely play along with you guys, though I'm in no good state to race. I'm probably too busy to put enough time into it, and I like to level a lot (I'm sorry, Marsh Cave and Earth Cave rape me if I don't level enough and get the right equipment before them). Also, anyone not playing the NES version (in my case, it would be emulated; I would most definitely play my NES cartridge if I had the NES and cartridge here at school with me) is not hardcore enough.

I might have to either switch back to my Coneria/Corneria sig or create a new one. You don't know how much I am in support of this, Psy. Actually, you probably do. You know me so well. <3

[Jiro]

Sounds like fun.Will give me a good excuse to play them again. Though, I'll probably be left behind in the race
Great idea guys.

I kinda regret having to start over in my almost-gumptioned ff1 playthrough, but at least I didn't even get to elf-land, no biggie 8)

[Freya]

I'll have to get an emulator but i'll try to give it a whirl!

[rubah]

For the record, Eyes on Final Fantasy does not officially endorse the use of emulators, ROMS, or BIOS files. We will not permit the discussion of where or how to obtain these items on these message boards, as per our usual policy.

(but we're not going to interrogate you on how you participate either)

[NeoCracker]

Ya know, WTF.

I'll give FF1 another go. Didn't really enjoy it all that much originally.

The only question I have before I start is, do your stats go up more after your class changes?

[Ouch!]

I'll take a crack at Origins, sure.

[NeoCracker]

I'm going old School NES baby.

[Caraliz]

I'll play the gba version. After I finish FFIX I'll start on FFI.
