I'd assume it might be common for Americans to have never played II or III on the NES. I myself have only played them on emulators. Feel free to answer with those, but I'm actually curious if any other FF fans have never played one of the actual US releases.
It just struck me as odd yesterday that there is a copy of FF IX in my house which belongs to my girlfriend, and i have NEVER EVER played it!
I think I must have been involved in beating VI at the time it first came out or something, but I never even had much of a desire to play it. Anyway, I feel slightly "incomplete," as I consider myself a pretty hard core fan, having owned all the games at in the years they were released, and having beaten or at least gotten 90% of the way through every other US released FF game. Should I feel compelled to go play IX, or is it really even worth it? It looks a bit lame to me. I wasn't really too captivated by the other PSX FF's either though, except I liked VIII's junctioning system.
Also, I've never played FF XI, but I don't think that's too unusual. Maybe I'll get around to it, though online play is simply not my thing. :mog:
