love ff6, it's awesome. I like that the bad guy actually succeeds in destroying the world

At least temorerrilly.

I'll assume you meant "temporarily". And he does a pretty permanent job. I mean, that item shop in Mobliz is just never accessable again. Oh, and Vector, yeah, you can't go there either. And the world has, like, 12 continents, instead of 2 or 3.

Even so, he does lose out in the end. He dissolves away into nothingness, feather and all.

Yes I did mean "temporarily" (Damn my dyslexia...) And it's permanent til the End of the game.

can i get a response to my second question...maybe i can make some trades...

As I've heard, they were actually working on a FF6 remake for N64 at one point

The 3D final fantasy VI demos that you might see are actually a playable game made as a testing device as square hit 2d, http://lostlevels.org/200510/

I head they were making a remake of Final Fantasy VII for PS3.

Oh, wait, that was a tech demo.

Oh, wait, so was this.

Oh, wait.

This reminds me of that 8-bit...cant remember wchich one though ><
Time to read them all over again!!! (what a wasted summer vacation)

Goldilocks was very tired by this time feeling like a gamer, so she went to the bedroom videogames. She lay down in the first bed tried Final Fantasy V, but it was too hard didn't have enough character development. Then she lay in the second bed tried Final Fantasy VII, but it was too soft was too riddled with plot twists. Then she lay down in the third bed played Final Fantasy VI and it was just right. Goldilocks fell asleeps had fun.

The most well balanced game I have ever played.

Final Fantasy VI Advance + Game Boy Player + Gamecube = Best Game ever

[Elpizo]

VI was indeed an epic game... For a small while it was my favorite Final Fantasy, until V came along...

This game had so many great things, great music and graphics, good cast of characters and all the stuff.

There were some downsides on it, however. Like it wasn't really a challenge to play. Kefka can be downed in like 3 turns with Terra X-Magic + That relic that halves MP cost + Ultima + Celes who casts Ultima. I mean, X-Death and Neo-X-Death were to battles after each other, and both were hard. Why couldn't they make Kefka hard as well? A bit disappointing that the guy that had fun blowing up the world goes down in 5 minutes.

Now, I personally, I prefer X-Death above Kefka. Kefka did a wonderful job being evil and all, but X-Death battled and killed a legend of a character and that alone makes me choose for him above Kefka. And X-Death's battle theme owns, anyway.

Now, having finished FF V advance, I'm even more convinced that V is in my humble little opinon better than VI, but when FF VI Advance comes out, I'm pretty sure I'll have hours and hours of pure gaming fun again. Welcome back, FF VI, I would say.

And if SE puts as much effort in FF VI Advance as in FF V advance, I can say you VI lovers will get some hours of pure awesomeness, believe me!

FF6 was the first RPG I ever owned (I was 9), way back in 1995 during the Golden Age of console video games. I had played FF1 and FF4 at a friend's house, which got me hooked on RPGs, but FF6 blew me away. Call me biased, but I think it deserves to be called the greatest RPG of all time.

The graphics were amazing for the 16-bit era, the storyline is incredibly deep and well done. The main villian wasn't a cheesy "I am evil for no particular reason" character like in most fantasy games, but is very human, a soldier who was turned into an insane, nihilistic egomaniac as a result of becomeing a magitech knight. The plot also hits upon 2 very important themes, hope and the meaning of life (think of the "self-help booklet" scene just before the final battle when Kefka spews a nihilistic rant about "why do you live when you know all must die" and the characters' response to it).

FFVI is still my favorite in the series, I still feel it has overall the best cast of characters and story. It is still the only FF game where a party member is so overcome by despair she tries to commit suicide, the only game where almost every member of the cast gives up the battle against the villians, and the only game to allow you to sing your little heart out

Kefka may not be overall as evil as X-Death, nor does he have the prevalent "cool" factor of Sephiroth but what he does have is personality. Not many people can say that a villain both made you love him and then hate him. Besides, his list of crimes against your party and humanity is far greater than Sephiroth (though X-Death still wins the award for being the most overall bastard towards you) but Kefka created such a following and didn't have to resort to killing a party member to do it.

I'll still take Tina over Aerith, my Espers over Guardian Forces and Aeons, and Kefka over any "badasses" and "True Evil". It was the right game at the right time in my life and it still inspires and moves me to this day.

[Odin2006]

Celes's attempted suicide must be one of the most gut-wrenching scenes of any RPG.

[Wolf Kanno]

I truly feel that FFVI, fully embodied the theme of "Hope"

Thinking of the game's awesomeness caused me to have hand spasms while typing
