    I tried to do something like this in the summer. I beat I, II and III, started IV, but got bored, since I had finished it not long before.

    I figure we'll last until halfway before 2 is completed. I hated 2.

    If we lose this, it'll be on his end. I've already beaten them all variously throughout the years, but he hasn't. He's a FF7 kid. Poor guy.

    And yet you have an Emperor Mateus avatar

    Personally, I wasn't a great fan of FFII after the first playthrough, but after playing the PSP version it has consistently grown on me. I love how they fleshed out the system.

    Not to mention it has one of the most awesome characters of all time! (points at avatar, sig and username)

    I actually started a marathon of my own last week. I'm STILL on FFI, but I'm nearly at the middle. I think I'll try and make it so I get each game done in the shortest time possible.

    As for FFII, I've always been very untroubled by it. Difficulty is actually what I WANTED from FFII, and that's what I got. I am pleased.
    Then again, seeing that shopkeepers were no longer green guys with hooded robes made me a very, very sad little person.

    I admit I never played the PSP version of II, so maybe I'll like it more than the terrible NES game.

    As for Mateus, it's because he's just a giant badass in Dissidia, so I think I'm forgiven for liking him. run amok

    Best of luck. Although I adore the series I probably wouldn't have the patience for it!

    Started. FF1. Lich kicked my ass: apparently bringing three warriors wasn't a great idea.

    Did they make the game more balanced in the PSP version? It seems to me that the warriors in this version are a lot less useful. (In the NES version, a party of four is like auto-game-win.)

    I read that they buffed magic, but I also heard that about the GBA version, and magic still blew just as much. Didn't they also remove the Mithril/Silver Sword from Elfland? (Don't remember the exact name, you know the one I am talking about.)

    Beat the game tonight at around level 55. I'm going around doing all of the extra dungeons I never really did; tomorrow, I begin FF2. Which I am now excited to try out on PSP.

    My friend, expectantly, hated FF1. But he's beginning a blog, which is supposed to be explaining everything.

    We are giant badasses, by the way.

    Deep (?) into Final Fantasy III today. It's going really fast, but not as fast as we were hoping. I imagine it'll speed up once we get into "good" Final Fantasy: even though the games are longer, Famicom-era Final Fantasy is so goddam boring that it's hard to play for more than an hour.

    That is amazingly high-leveled, so you're basically a badass.

    It's going to be

    FF1 (PSP)
    FF2 (PSP)
    FF3 (DS)
    FF4 (DS)
    FF5 (GBA)
    FF6 (GBA)
    CC: FF (PSP)
    FF7 (PS1)
    FF8 (PS1)
    FF9 (PS1)
    FF10 (PS2)
    FF10-2 (PS2)
    FF12 (PS2)
    FFT (PS1)

    And about a month later, FF13 should be coming out.

    But that's coincidental, really.
    Thank you for the post.
    Hi guys, Im a newbie. Nice to join this forum.

    I did something similar for only the FFVII Complilation when Crisis Core came out. I played through it over about a week, played through FFVII again in about the same time, watched Advent Children straight after and played through Dirge of Cerburus the next day.

    Anyway, best of luck to you with your challenge. =]
