Reviews around music (5.00 of 5)

  • The music was triumphant and bold, fitting the game perfectly
  • FF VI has it all: a great story, some of the best character development seen in any RPG, music that is still hailed as best video game music ever, moderate challenge, and one of the longest RPG's for its time
  • I think that FFIII (or FFVI) has the best music out of any FF game as well
  • The music is hauntingly beautiful & every character has their history.
  • In my opinion however, i think that squaresoft should have taken the boss theme music from final fantasy 2 and beefed it up, as final fantasy 2 has the BEST boss theme music

Reviews around condition (5.00 of 5)

  • As much as I respect and enjoy Final Fantasy 7, I gravitate towards the first camp because that's the style that I grew up on

  • The game was in perfect condition and had everything with it including the instruction booklet and the posters.it seemed as if it had never been taken out of the box!
  • But the cartridge itself was in really good condition, better than what was advertised actually, and it saved fine.
  • The game looked in good condition, but as my son started to play it

Reviews around score (5.00 of 5)

  • A great musical score also helps make this game a winner.
  • But anyway, getting back to FFIII, what I love about this game is not only the flawless, incredibly massive storyline, the loveable, great characters, the wonderful musical score, the interesting world map design (something I pay attention to in each FF game, just for grins), and the good graphics (I don't care if others don't like the graphics
  • The greatest musical score ever created for a Super Nintendo game might make you slap yourself just to see if your dreaming
  • There's something to be said about playing a game the way it was meant to be played- an SNES, with no load times, no un-needed, forced-in cut scenes, a beautiful score and graphics that were unbeatable at the time

Reviews around rpgs (5.00 of 5)

  • Like I said, this is the best Final Fantasy, & one of the truly great RPGs to have ever come out.
  • To this day it remains one of the best RPGs I've ever played, with the most endearing characters, subtly terrifying villains, and more than a few laughs in between
  • (Is it just me, or do they not make RPGs with characters this awesome any more?)
  • Final Fantasy VI Advance has a bit of added content, and some translation changes, including the song Celes sings in the famous Opera House scene.)This is as good as RPGs get, a classic that deserves every drop of the love fans have for it.

Reviews around rpg (4.42 of 5)

  • Apparently, after the less than stellar results of their first shot at a darker, grittier RPG in 1988, Square put the idea in the freezer for a few years in order to wait for better hardware and a bigger budget
  • But I had to praise what I consider to possibly be the greatest RPG of all time
  • This is the greatest RPG for the Super NES, and one of the best games ever made
  • Some of the best RPG's were releases for the Super Nintendo, and Final Fantasy III (originally released as VI in Japan) is no exception
  • As the title of this review states, this may well be the greatest RPG of all time, if not for the Super Nintendo or any other Nintendo console.

Reviews around theme (4.03 of 5)

  • Although the theme of the motley crew uniting to work towards a common cause has been abundant in Japanese storytelling since Hiroshima, in everything from Seven Samurai to Evangelion, Final Fantasy VI is unique in its love for its characters
  • The first game in the series to have a "modern" theme to it, this title follows the exploits of Terra, an enslaved soldier in the Ghestahlian Empire, as she and two lowly soldiers are sent to investigate the recent discovery of an Esper frozen in ice near the mountain town of Narshe
  • We have a well-thought theme designed for each character, made specifically to convey to you their love, fears, hopes and pain.
  • The theme for all the music is similar in atmosphere and really drags you into the game
  • He has one of the coolest boss themes in any video game, period

Reviews around fan (4.03 of 5)

  • The Next Generation Die Hard---these fans tend to love the later entries because of their showcasing of technology, dark/bleak setting (a la Blade Runner), and innovative systems like limit breaks and materia
  • (what'd ya think I was going to say?)---these fans tend to respect and love all the games, and maybe dislike just one or two but whose reasons have no relation to Camps 1 and 2.Obviously, Camp 1 will often claim Final Fantasy 6 or 9 as the best entry (maybe even 4), while Camp 2 will very, very likely claim that 7 is the best

  • The Old School Die Hard---these fans tend to love the originals because of their nostalgic value, medieval setting, and more majestic storylines
  • It is the perfect lead-in to Final Fantasy 7 by aesthetics and setting alone, and I can't think of a better way to intrigue both the medieval Fantasy fans and the more modern Fantasy fans

Reviews around graphic (3.92 of 5)

  • the graphics aren't so good , but hey,their super nintendo
  • compared to final fantasy 2 these graphics are superior
  • Who could forget the hilarious, synth-dripping Techno de Chocobo, the Opera House's Aria de Mezzo Caraterre (horrible singing and all), the 17-minute, tension-laden dramatics of Dancing Mad, the music for the final face-off with Kefka and his pillar of cronies, or (my personal favourite) the music that accompanies the grand finale, which blends each character's theme into one seamless, beautiful piece?The only area in which the game warrants dissent is the graphics
  • A good story, great graphics for it's time, and a depth (puzzle and exploration-wise) that will keep you playing long after you beat it the first time, this game is a fun and thought-provoking way to spend a week or two

  • he can perform a "slot" move during battleSTAGO MAGUS-3/10- another worthless character who is extremely weak even in his "lores" which he can use in battleRELM ARROWNY-5/10- an annoying little girl who wants her way with everything
  • FF VI has it all: a great story, some of the best character development seen in any RPG, music that is still hailed as best video game music ever, moderate challenge, and one of the longest RPG's for its time
  • she is pretty cool, and really useful during battle, as she can absorb magicCYAN GARAMONDE-8/10- a persistant devious character
  • Awesome music, adventorous map (there's two "worlds" by the way, play and find out...), complex plot, interesting characters (ALL of them having a unique skill) and the ability to have up to four fighting at once, innovative battle systems (there's three points in the game where you split your characters into two or three teams, depending on where you are in the game, and you can switch between them and fight a lot of battles), gameplay longevity without ever getting boring
  • This game sparked my interest in RPG's and inspired me to seek out other RPG's that would draw me in with their captivating stories and characters

Reviews around fantasy (3.86 of 5)

  • that Final Fantasy 7 was the best Final Fantasy and had the best Final Fantasy villain
  • There are certainly more difficult Final Fantasy games in the franchise; for instance the ability learning system in Final Fantasy 9 and the Yiazmat hunt in Final Fantasy 12 (which usually can't be completed in under two hours)
  • Final Fantasy V's Job System might lend itself to abuse, but this game's Esper/Relic setup practically begs it
  • This is my favorite Final Fantasy game and one of the only games I now own for my old SNES
  • Today’s RPG’s such as final fantasy 8 have lame dialogues and realistic pursuits such as the well proportioned characters that are just lacking the imagination and creative individualities of its predecessors.

Reviews around story (3.75 of 5)

  • Besides that the story is awesome and the game will keep you busy for awhile.
  • I had never really experienced a full blown, deep story in a video game
  • Everything about it, from the old'school graphics to the Perfect music (Opera house, anyone?) and incredible story and characters made this the best game I ever played
  • FF VI has it all: a great story, some of the best character development seen in any RPG, music that is still hailed as best video game music ever, moderate challenge, and one of the longest RPG's for its time

Reviews around storyline (3.75 of 5)

  • Lots of hidden secrets to uncover, unique storyline tied to each character, easy-to-understand mechanics, high replay value, beautiful graphics, and a solid soundtrack make this a must-have for your gaming library.
  • Out of any RPG (or any genre of game), this game has the strongest storyline of all
  • The storyline is absolutely brilliant, Kefka's plan to reign over the world, Shadow's secret background, the magitek factories, Terra's ambivalent and ambiguous feelings about herself, and definitely Kefka's last word's as GOD are all examples of the great "fantasy" qualities of this game.
  • Final Fantasy III has a thoroughly complex storyline and an awesome cast of characters
  • But anyway, getting back to FFIII, what I love about this game is not only the flawless, incredibly massive storyline, the loveable, great characters, the wonderful musical score, the interesting world map design (something I pay attention to in each FF game, just for grins), and the good graphics (I don't care if others don't like the graphics

Reviews around world (1.87 of 5)

  • The hauntingly beautiful steampunk world rendered in two-dimensional sprites is juxtaposed well with the mesmerizing soundtrack: faux vocals, symphonic arrangements and techno pop are but a few of the melodies presented that push the SNES hardware to its limits.
  • Wacky, obsessed and absolutely nuts, he is often referred to as the "Clown Prince of Darkness", destroying the world and loving every minute of it
  • It's not that they're truly awful; in 1994, when the game was first released, it probably would have knocked gamers off their seats, but with the advent of new, powerful 3-D capable consoles the visuals just can't cut it
  • And when the world gets destroyed...you are only halfway through the game!
  • A thousand years ago, the power of magic was harnessed in a terrible war that threatened the entire world.

  • The story, while a classic tale of rebellion against an oppressive empire, is rich and takes itself seriously

  • The story follows as she joins up with the treasure hunter Locke and several others as they head on an epic journey of self discovery and more in the pursuit of stopping the Empire from gaining full control of the lost art of Magic.
  • What bond does Terra share with the magical Espers, and what part does she play in the evil, mercenary Empire's plans
  • It was all about magic and technology colliding, rebels trying to squash the evil empire, and a helpless girl who was enslaved
