Thread: Is this game worth getting?

  1. #1

    Thumbs up Is this game worth getting?

    My friends say its a good game and alot of spent like 60+ hours on it?
    but i am wondering should i get it... the lowest # final fantasy game i started on was IX, and i loved it, i played it more then 3 times and beat it more then 3 times lol. Right now i am on Final Fantasy X, and I'm trying to complete it 90%+.

    also is final fantasy VIII worth getting?

    You may not be used to the (now) archaic graphics, but don't let that distract you. I'd say the game is definitely worth a buy. I don't think you'll be disappointed by the gameplay or story, at any rate.

    The graphics are a little iffy, but you'll get over those very quickly, as you are immersed in an amazing world that seems very realistic. The storyline and characters of this game are some of the best I have ever seen. This game is definitely worth the graphics and the time. Definitely get it. Especially if you like X, because there are quite a few similarities between X and VII.

    Yes!! they both are awesome games, plus one winged angel is the best final battle theme ever (I'm listening to it now )
    the junction system in FFVIII is a bit confusing though, it may take you a couple of tries to get it.

    The game is definitely worth getting. Although by X's standards the graphics may seem bad you will adapt to them soon enough as Aralith said. I would also reccomend 8, though 7 has always been my personal favourite

    Don't heard what the FFVII fanboys say. If you belive in them, you will play the game with so many spectatives, that you will be disappointed. Principally when the first disc is VERY BORING.
    And another thing that you have to remember is that you already played FFIX, a game that is much better then VII. So, i doubt that FFVII will impress you very much.
    But my advise is to play the game, because he is very good, like all FFs(but is not THAT good, like people will try to make you belive).

    Hmm I see where your coming from The Crystal with the fact this is the ff7 forum and most of the people here (me included) prefer ff7 the most, but 9 being better is only a personal opinion. Still, you are entitled to your own and..hmm what's the point I'm trying to make

    In conclusion: Ignore Me

    FFVII has an amazing story. the controls and archaic graphics will very soon take a backseat to the story and gameplay. you'll definitely miss the analog stick after a few hours. also, don't let the first 6 hours or so get you down. they'll be fun, but you'll be stuck in Midgar. once you leave there, the game gets sooo much better.

    Midgar seems pretty action-packed during the beginning to me. What other games have you blow up two reactors before the first two hours of the game are over?


    Don't answer that.
