*Sigh* VIII or IX?

[arcanedude34]

IX, w/o a doubt. Im just surprised that two people actually voted for eight and two people didnt know.

FFIX. I thought it had better gameplay, characters, story, villians, graphics, music. The whole shebang.

I really don't understand how people can not think this. VIII is just so horrible.

...You people do indeed suck. 8's so much better.

Final Fantasy IX for me. The intro to FFIX was my intro to the FF series, and of course it was a game I couldn't put down once I started playing. Loved every signle moment of the game.

FFVIII was close to my least favorite FF game, but still it wasn't a bad game overall. i'd rather play FFVIII than most other games, but as compared to other FF's, it just didn't live up to the competition.

FFIX FTW.

VIII's story was alright, but not that special. The characters were alright ('specially Zell) but again, nothing that makes me really like them. The draw system annoyed me, as did the fact that I can't even use items without a GF. The music was pretty good sometimes, but not as good as IX's. IX had more better music, interesting characters, humor, moogles, and a somewhat interesting story.

I said it before, and I won't retract my statement unless paid to. IX!

Especially Zell? That's funny because I personally had always viewed him as the biggest waste of character space, not changing at all (as most of them don't) and contributing absolutely nothing to the story, whereas most of the others contributed at least a little bit. Were it up to me, I'd have killed him off.

IX, but I enjoyed playing VIII too.

I'm gonna be someone else quoting this post. It sums it up perfectly.

But According to the Book of Cz, you won't be returning to Cz but the Anti -Cz, AKA Jack Thompson. Can't argue with teh Book of Cz man, its true. Every last word of it. And you can't deny the truth my friend.

This question has been in my head since I have played them. Around this forum is see continual fights about "IX is better" or "VIII owns IX" etc etc. So people. If everyone votes here, there will be a final answer.


WHICH ONE IS BETTER VIII OR IX!?!?!?

You really think a poll is going to give this discussion any finality??

I chose not to answer the poll, because I like both of them equally for very different reasons. I mean, that's the reason (for me) to keep going back to them...they're none the same game.

It's been a while since I played the game, but I do remember Zell and Seifer bickering (that's the main reason I like him). Plus, he likes hot dogs and so do I.

FFIX of course. FFVIII was dry and dull by the time you got to the end because you could pwn anything that got in your way. It's story didn't help, it had depthless characters which fanboys and girls tried to overcomplicate (*cough*R=U *cough*). FFVIII had a pretty boy main character who they knew would win fans without any depth, FFIX had a funny likable character with a large amount of character depth and development.

All in all, IX>VIII, from personal expirence, all who deny this usually only liked FFVIII out of all FFs (not including VII they still usually like that).
