Every couple of years I do a nice survey of one era. Last summer I re-played III(NES)-VI(3 GBA version I hadn't tried). A couple of years back I did VII-X. XII I haven't re-done yet. Despite being arguably the best game named Final Fantasy, it's just so exhausting and time-consuming and I can't really justify that kind of effort at the moment.

Thinking back, it makes me realize how awesome the series is. Even when it's not at the top of its game, it's imaginative and engrossing. (Even X has some great moments, and despite being generally ty as a game they almost make one more play-through sound compelling and interesting.) Not sure how many other series (or individual games) can make that claim.

Anyway - got XIII today! Onward!
