Well unless the person you are buying for is a huge fan of the series I and II will look very dated. If they are a huge fan of the series then they should already have it.

III and IV. Not bad I guess. I don't know anything about III as it was never released on a PS console.

V and VI. The problem with this is that it's on a GBA... If you said V and VI's PSone games together then I'd go with that. I didn't even notice the long loading times people moan about. VII is equally slow.

FF X and Kingdom Hearts. Meh to both of them.

FXII and KHII. No! XIII is bad and I don't care about the KH characters.

FF CC and Tactics. Tactics is great, but CC well...it tries it's best to ruin the plot of VII. Swap CC with any good PSP game, FF or not, and this could be your winner. If the person you are buying it for hasn't played VII then CC will confuse them. If they have then it's wayward plot will still confuse them and worse make them angry. Avoid it like the plague- or to give an FF simile, avoid it like you'd avoid Emerald Weapon when in the sub.

Chrono Trigger DS & The World Ends With You
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance & Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories
Revenant Wings -FF XII- & Final Fantasy Tactics A2

I thought I'd group them 3 together because I'd be saying the same thing otherwise and that is- Meh.


The best combination there is VII, VIII and IX by far! First of all it's three games! They are all very good games (yes even VIII) on the system they were created for. None of these three is a naff remake/spin-off/god awful CGI film sequel and all of them are classics and part of the actual series.
