There were a few threads that were made recently beating a Final Fantasy game. I've created a thread where you can post about your review on the game.

If you have beaten Final Fantasy I for the first time...Please post your Final Fantasy I reviews here.

If you beat Final Fantasy I already and still want to write a review, then go ahead.

I think it was pretty awesome. I had it for my PSP (which is broken :[ ) and I'd say that of the games I've played on PSP, it takes the top. The only problem I have with it is it can get rather difficult finding out where to go at some points, but overall it was a very enjoyable experience and I'm definitely going to play through it again when I get my PSP fixed.

I bought the PSP versions of Final Fantasy I and II back in December 2007. I have just beaten the PSP version of Final Fantasy I for the first time. This was my second attempt on the PSP version. My first attempt failed due to the lack of the Memory Stick Duo. This is the third time I beat Final Fantasy I. This is the first time I ever beat a Final Fantasy remake, but not the first I ever beat a remake. I beat the original version of Final Fantasy I six years ago. I used the same party on the PSP version as I did on the original version. I really love the PSP version, much more than the original. I attempted the Labyrinth of Time, but failed after going through five rounds. By the time I reached Chaos, I leveled the party to the maximum (which is 99 in the GBA and PSP versions, but 50 in the original version). I played through the dungeons that were introduced by the GBA version as well and benefitted from them. The Origins, GBA, and PSP versions include the end credits roll, but the original version does not. The ending of the remakes is much longer than that of the original. For both Japanese and English, the PSP script is basically identical to the GBA script.

I bought Final Fantasy Origins for the Playstation a good few years ago and played through Final Fantasy to about Elfhiem and then lost interest. However recently me and a good friend made a pact that we would play through all the Final Fantasies from I to XII (with the exception XI) 100% all the way through, this was the first time I played the original Final Fantasy properly. And I enjoyed it immensly after taking the time to get into it, unfortunatly my friend had Dawn of Souls, the GBA version which is significantly easier than Origins so I fell behind. But the game was really fun, you get a brilliant sense of accomplishment from getting the airship and when your classes become upgraded. Although the battles can get tiresome after a while, it does feel good when you get another level up and seeing your characters become really powerful is great. The only thing I disliked about the game was the obvious lack of character interactions and real 'Final Fantasy' story, but hey this is where it all started and it's a great deal of fun and definatley worth a play through.

...yes?

i liked it. the only thing that kinda pissed me off (and relieved me at the same time), was when i started playing the DoS version of FFI, and i didn't know that Square made it able for you to save inside dungeons (since you couldn't in the first one), and i went all the way through the game, getting mass amounts of Game Over screens (i was doing a LLG) and then finally realizing, after i had beaten the game, that i could save inside dungeons.

oh well.

I enjoyed playing the game and it was interesting to see where the series began, having not played anything older than final fantasy VI before.
The only negative coments id have to say are that the magic was very expensive near the end, but i suppose like all games if thats something you want you have to be prepared to work for it. But also that the ending of the game wasnt too great in my opinion, and i prefer final fantasy games when the characters have more of a personality, but i suppose with the option of choosing which people to have in your team at the start this wasnt entirely possible

A real classic.The game looks good(i dont mean graphics).I mean the world and atmosphere, it's like it should be.Game has various weapons,magics and items.The story is good and gameplay too.So yeah it's a game that should be played.It has only some bad points.It may get a bit baffling at some points where you have no idea where to go next,but it isn't as bad as it sounds.The story is weak at some points.It may be too hard(on nes version) or too easy(on GBA).The mana system is kind of a creepy for some guys, but i like it.You will most likely lose intrest in this game before the marsh cave, but if you survive long enough to blow up some landscape, you wont put your controller down anymore.
