Should this game be called 'Final Fantasy 9'?

[Quindiana Jones]

Well said.

Unfortunately for me, I have never played anything before 7, so I only really like FF9 because it's more of what I'm into anyway. From what I hear, I'd probably have liked all before 7. Not that I didn't like 7...but you know what I mean

It should be called:

The Best Final Fantasy Ever

You all must agree with me!

EDIT: No bad talk about FFVII. I'm sensitive to it.

[Quindiana Jones]

Not what I meant sorry. I did like 7. Obviously not as much as 9 though

ff9 fits more with the rest of the series than ff7 and ff8 do. but they are all clearly in the same game series, futuristic or medieval.

Exactly.

I totally agree with you there. Regardless of format, they're all still Final Fantasy games.

Zidane: Yeah, it's like I say on more forums, when it comes to Square, fairytale setting > sci fi setting

ff9 is cool because 9 is my favourite number.

Yes, it should be called Final Fantasy IX.
Though it's not futuristic as they're doing the newest FFs now, but it's still an FF game.

so were FFT FFTA FFCC. what's your point?

[~SapphireStar~]

Eh, Im not the only one who said that mate. Im agreeing with Larahl. They are all FFs as well. The point was its called FF9 for a reason. It doesnt need to be just Final Fantasy.

[Halenite]

yes it should because that is the name Square gave it.

and yes, it's called Final Fantasy because the original FF game for the NES was Square's attempt to get back in the competition.

Lots of things to talk about. So is 'Final Fantasy IX' it's real title?

Squaresoft, the owner of the trademark, and also the producer of the game, gave it that name. Who are we to question that? It's like asking a mother "Are you sure your boy's name really is Lloyd?", or asking a painter if his latest painting "rofltastic" is the real name of it.

no, I'm saying, should it really be called so? As in, would it make more sense as a side-story, like FFT, FFTA and FFCC. But I guess FFIX is what it should be called. But IMO, if it's a part of the saga, it should be the last one because of how well it fits with all FF.

[Mirage]

I don't get what your point is. Are you talking about what you think the game should have been called? Cause the name is Final Fantasy IX, whether you like it or not. Squaresoft clearly wanted it to be part of the main series, so that's how it is.
