I think Mourdor is going to like this thread :)

I've still let to get it, and I think I won't be getting it until Saturday instead of Friday, which I was when I was hoping to get it :(

But I'll tell you what I think when I do get it ;)

*tries to keep calm*

This is the greatest game. Characters with their own storyline and you can have four in your party at one time. Each character has their own unique abilities. Plus, three hidden characters throughout the game.

The magic system will come in to play after a little bit in to the game. Characters learn magic and then keep it with them.

If you need any help with it, you can ask me.

this is one of the best games that ever came out, I beat it more times than every other ff put together. I loved this game and the fact that the whole second part of the game is all side quests =P

Yes, you don't need to do everything in the second half of the game. But, it is highly recommended to do that because it will make the hard final boss a little easier.

That sounds awesome, I love a good sidequest every once in awhile!

i love the fact of loads of characters of course the best character is Sabin he is so cool with his blitz attack.
at the moment im up to a bit when u r locke and ive just rescued a girl cant remember her name though, u have to steal clothes to get there.

I've just got FF6 and I agree its a great game! :D
Though I have to restart the game again from the beginning because I didn't have any spaces on my memory card to save it :p :shock:

Oh well I don't mind, I can get back to where I was quite quickly probably ;)

FF6 was only released on the 1st March, I know I got my copy of it at EB, but I pre-ordered it and I had to ask for it at the checkout. I also noticed that they didn't seem to have any copies of it out on the shelves :confused:
So maybe you should try going up to the checkout or something and ask for it
It's well worth the money! ;)


Oh and nanjij I don't think I'm as far as you let in FF6 I've let to restart the game again, but I got up to when they are riding Chocobos for the first time when I played it :sarcasm: :)

March this year ?!!?!?! :shock: :shock:
Was it re-released or summat ?"!
I asked bout 4 weeks ago which FF they had they said " FF7,FF8,FF9"

Soul Angel
Mar 2nd, 2002, 09:23 AM
Yep March of this year x157anz! :)
I think though it hasn't ever been released over here though in the UK, and it hasn't been well advertised of its release. I only found out about it by chance while looking at a Final Fantasy website. But you should be able to get it now if you ever asked for it :)

They just released FF6 in Europe. Unfortunately, it wasn't part of the FFAnthology.

Mar 2nd, 2002, 03:40 PM
my cuz (marlie) had to go to the counter to get his too, it wasnt in the shelves where he lived, but i simply preordered it

x157anz
Mar 2nd, 2002, 03:45 PM
Hmm i can see there point though it would look stupid with FF6 & FF10 on the shelves together ;)
Is it as good as FF7 !? graphics etc....
Il ring up eb tmoz. :ghost: (I want to get all the FF now i realised how good it is) Does anybody have FF1 or 2 , Whats the oldest FF that you have ?!

Ummm, they never had the original Final Fantasy on GB. Are you talking about FF adventure or something? I thought it was the original as well, but it's not. They're completely different games.

On the actual PSX version, i'm nowhere (No Colour TV!!!!) but im well into the last quarter of the game on the ROM...

SPOILER:

Think i'd just got Shadow Back, and needed only Loki, Mog, Gogo and Umaro to complete my character collection.

SPOILER.

i havent heard of umaro or gogo r they secret or do i meet them later?

kupoartist
Mar 3rd, 2002, 04:43 PM
tsk, shouldnt be reading spoilers :)
They are optional, but then in the last half of the game all except Celes, Edgar and Setzer are optional (won't spoil it for you though)

IcyMourdor
Mar 3rd, 2002, 04:50 PM
There are three hidden characters throught the game.

They aren't really worth it, IMO. But i use them anyways.

Mar 4th, 2002, 04:37 AM
Yeah, all square need to do is release Xenogears, chrono cross, Brave fencer mushashi, FF4 & 5 and the rest of the bunch.

Oh and while we're on the subject, tell enix( is that right??) to release those bloody Lunar games. NOW. :frust:

It was first out on the SNES.
But they have just released it on the PS1.
I think :ghost:

I'm assuming we're all from the west here so I shall leave Japan out of my explanation.

FF6 was first released for the SNES (1994) in the US as FF3 (a long totally different story...) and was later re-released alongside FF5 in "Final Fanatasy Anthology" for The PS1.

In Europe, all FF games before to FF7 were never released. (no NES or SNES games) until 1 week ago when FF6 was released, on its own for the PS1.

It is the european version this thread refers to.

*Ahem*
I had FF6 for the SNES years ago! And im from the UK :ghost:

That seems unlikely. Especially as Squaresoft themselves say It was never released here. You may have got it by Import, but it would have never been "FF6" as there was no English Translation by the name "FF6" (it was FF3)

It must of been imported then ,,, sorry :cool:
I got it off my m8 anyway :ghost:

Nothing to be sorry about :) actually I envy anyone who got to play FF6 before me :D

My m8 bought FF6 today and its a fun game but really pore graphics.
Allthough they have added some really cool Scenes to the game.
Is there a limit of FF6's in the UK ?!
My mate told me to get one before they all sell out :roll:

Graphics aren't everything. Hell, I swear the only reason FF7 to FF9 are more popular is because they are easier on the eyes :mad: As for the limited stock comment i'm not sure, but copies were quite hard to come by upon release (this game sold better than Medal Of Honour : Allied Assault!)

Amazing game , allthough currently getting help off Mourdor :p

Yeah FF6 is a great game, though I've let to finish it :p
But I agree with you x157anz, the FFX which came with it is also good!
Shame FFX is going to take so long to come out over here though :disturb: :(

Problem is now that it has been released, those gamers who have been brought up on the eye candy that PS1 originally provided will take one look at the graphics and think 'pah'...

BUT... if it does sell very well, who knows - maybe Square will decide to release Final Fantasy Tactics, Chrono Trigger/Cross and Xengoears over here!

I've heard rumours that Square might be releasing FF Chronicles, Chrono Cross and FF Tactics in Europe as well?
It would be great if they did! :)

given recent developments im not sure a PSX back-catalouge will be attempted, at least with all the titles we want. (Besides the PSX is a very, very old machine, though I could of course be wrong...)

Regarding the recent Nintedo/Square partner ship, I reckon the PSX version of FFVI was actually done for more than one reason: They probably wanted to see if the previous FF titles would cope over here...

Regardless of whether GBA games get to Europe (and Square-Europe have a very bad reputation...), the GBA dosen't need chipping to play imported US games like the PSX....
