SquareSoft has also sent out several new screenshots from the game. The screens show off some of the environments and characters from the game. Characters shown include Tidus, Yuna, Auron, Kihmari, and Lulu. One of the Chocobo training scenes is also shown. In the game, if the Chocobo you\'re training wins a race, the lead character will receive a very rare and desirable item.


Several of the new pictures. Its basicly what we have been looking at for some time. Considering the size of them I was hopeing for a little leniency in the quantity. Thier so small and it takes practicly no time to load.

It took me 11 minutes to load this page up because of all those pics!  No, j/k. :)  It does look like a very beautiful game.  And from the reviews I\'ve heard of it, it is comparable to FF7.  Finally, the FF series is coming back.

I don\'t know...  I never finish FFIX.  I have just started playing it again last week and I\'m trying to pass it before DMC comes out.  I started over from the beginning because I couldn\'t remember anything that happened.

It\'s a good game no doubt about it, but I thought it was awfully sloppy and overated after I finished it (I do understand why so many people like it so much though). FF6 was better for me but whatever, every FF is good. Some of them are even great.

Well, Square was dead in my mind after the atrocity that was FFVIII.

They shut me up with FFIX though. :D

and whoever added the background in this thread, get rid of it, it\'s annoying. ;)

Now that is something I don\'t understand at all! How come so many people hate FF8? I think it\'s overall a better and much smoother game than FF7 any day. The great thing about it was that it was such a great departure from the normal rpg. Though it did have its frustrating moments (like any rpg), once you truly got the hang of it, you were a king! Most people were just too impatient for this game I guess. ah well..

The uninspiring battle system, the cliche\'d storyline, the *cough* innovative \'draw\' system, I can go on and on. I couldn\'t bare playing past disc 3, and it\'s a miracle I made it that far. Not a Final Fantasy game. Great CG though.

Yes a Final Fantasy game! I see we are in great disagreement here. We\'ll leave it at that... (..I\'m right, your wrong...)

FFIX was waaaaayy too easy. It lacked the challenge of 6 and 7, hell and even 8.
Title: New Final Fantasy Pics. . . .
Post by: Tetrad on October 04, 2001, 05:30:42 PM
The one thing that really bothered me about 8 was the junction system. I would be on a boss kicking ass only to find a little latter in the battle i could no longer even with max health withstand a hit from the boss. What happened you ask well i used all the healing spells junctioned to me health to heal me durring the battle so now my max HP is a couple thousand hit points bellow where it should be. How frustrating.

Every New Final Fantasy I have to change my tactics acourding to the games. Its as much apart as the game as a new magic system and a revamped battles. I\'ve liked everysingle one and I don\'t think it will stop with this or the next or the next after that.

I know FF6 had one of the best storylines in any RPG, but I haven\'t been able to play it for more than 10 minutes.  I tried playing an emulated version, but the graphics were so bad and the gameplay was so boring, I just quit playing it.  It was probably great for its time, but now, it sucks.

FF7 had one of the best story lines ever in an RPG.  It is the game that got me addicted to RPGs.  The materia system is something that I have missed in every other RPG.  I wish they would bring it back for FF12.

FFTactics was the second best FF game I\'ve played.  It\'s story was confusing until I played through a couple times, but the gameplay was perfect.  I really want to see a FFT2.

FF8 started out amazing.  The opening movie was/is the coolest computer animated movie I have ever seen.  Unfortunately, it went downhill from there.  The gameplay was so repetitive.  At the beginning I made the biggest mistake I could have made.  I leveled up my guys.  They all had more than 30,000 hp before I got off the first island because of that junctioning thing.  After that, the game was a breeze.  I don\'t think I died even once. :(  The story in this game was way screwed up.  The villain didn\'t live up to Sephiroth.

I am trying to play through 9, but I keep on getting bored and just turning it off.  I hope 10 can cure me of this "I hate RPGs" syndrome.

FF10 sounds great.  The globe leveling up system might take the materia systems spot in my heart. :)  I can see myself trying to get my main character to be a summoner, a fighter, a magic person, well, just about everything. :)  It is going to be fun.

I\'ve noticed that alot of times the first ff game people play is their favorite always.  It\'s like drug addiction, you always looking to repeat that same first experience but it usually doesn\'t happen.  I started with 6, then 4.  6 still remains my favorite while 9 and 7 tie in for second.  8 just didn\'t have that magic that the others did and I almost didn\'t play 9 because I became so disenchanted with 8.  I\'m gonna give 8 a second chance though.  I know this debate will never be resolved but I thought I\'d give my 2 cents.  One last note, i think psm described it best when they said ff8 is a great rpg but a bad final fantasy.

It was meant as a relative comparison. I have only played V (anthology version) through to IX and V is the hardest out of those five. You have to excuse my ignorance as i`m an Australian and the series never existed locally until VII was released.
