Final Fantasy is one of the most popular game series in the world. It was developed by Square Enix or rather Squaresoft that merged with Enix to become Square Enix, in Japan, and sold directly to the U.S and Canada and then Europe and I think one other country.
Final Fantasy has many games. The typical games are the ones with the numbers that are roman numerals and then there are spin offs of some of the real popular ones. It started in the 80s and has continued to this day.
Just recently I downloaded Final Fantasy III. I now have to start over because I died and never truly saved my progress. Grrr.
My favorite Final Fantasy games are VII and XIII, mainly XIII. I own Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII and also own Final Fantasy. I hope this doesn't come off as bragging.
My favorite of them all is Final Fantasy XIII. The graphics in the game are incredible. It looks so real. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it. The story line was wonderful. The game style was pretty neat. It was different from most of the style in most Final Fantasy games. The process of leveling up was interesting. It wasn't easy. In fact it's not easy at all to beat the game. I suffered big time. I haven't even completed the whole game yet. I'm still stuck on one boss, a falcie known as Dahaka. I can't seem to beat him. It makes me furious.
The story starts off in a floating planet called Cocoon that hovers above the extremely chaotic feral planet Pulse. Falcie are basically divine like beings that do a variety of things. There are Falcie on both Pulse and Cocoon. Cocoon is basically a peaceful utopia while Pulse is a perfect area for un civilized manner. The people of Cocoon have become so afraid of Pulse that anyone in contact with something from Pulse is to be quarantined and sent to Pulse. It's a really good game and applies good literature devices and themes to the story. If you do get it, good luck, it's not easy to beat enemies in this game.
