  • Happy 20th Birthday, FINAL FANTASY



    Today, December 18th, 2007, marks the 20th Anniversary of the FINAL FANTASY Series.

    FINAL FANTASY was released in Japan for the FamiCom system on this day 20 years ago.

    Originally intended to be the last project of inspired game designer Hironobu Sakaguchi, we can all see where that got Square.

    This year also marks the 10th Anniversary of FINAL FANTASY VII, one of the most iconic and revolutionary videogames ever created, and the 5th Anniversary of FINAL FANTASY XI.

    Let's all take a moment to think back on the last 20 years (or however many you've been with the franchise) and discuss how FINAL FANTASY has affected the games industry, the RPG, and you.

              I'm a little older than final fantasy. I've been playing games since 1987 when I bought my first game system ( Nintendo) and legend of zelda. I've played thru all the changes in technology and game mechanics and I am an avid FFxi fan.
              It's the only game I play. I enjoy every minute I get to play and I've never been bored in the 3 years I've been playing. I'm looking forward to continued expansions and I hope to hit 75 before I'm 75 ! (61 now). I even have a FFXI will so my daughter knows who to give my loot to when I go to the real SKY.

                  I remember I was on a boy scout campout when I learned about Final Fantasy. Some kid had the instruction book and Nintendo Players Guide with him. I borrowed it and spent hours reading through it. A week or two later I rented the game and played it non stop. Those were good days.

                    Aw shoot. No links for me.

                    What I meant to say was that I was 13 when I saw the ad for FFVI (well, FFIII here in the US). It didn't exactly get the tone of the game quite right (see youtube and add /watch?v=BeYu8CvKW-g to the URL), but there was a strange subconscious pull to it... I'm twice that age now and haven't stopped playing since then.

                    Welcome to your early 20's, Final Fantasy.

                            /em drinks a whole pack of beers in front of Final Fantasy

                            Then again, it's Japanese, so it's now of drinking age back home...

                            /em shares some sake with Final Fantasy

                              Completely unrelated but whatever.
