I really don't think you can compare I with the rest of the series since it was an early and simple game. It would be better to compare it with other games of that time.

If you enjoy classic Nintendo games you'll probably enjoy FF1. It was a very good game for it's time. If you want an awesome story with awesome character development and awesome graphics, stay away from this one.

Whether its good or not thats your oppinion but its the game that spawned an entired series of games so that has to say something bout the game even if you have to play it on ROM (like me ) its still worth it I've play throught the game countless amounts of times and i still like it its deffinately worth a look if not a few play throughs

I've played it only once, I didn't like it all that much. I know it was the first game in the series, but I couldn't even play it for an hour

It's a pretty decent game with a simple storyline, good music and some difficult bosses. Overall I'd give it a 7/10 but only because I can't play it for more than about 45 mins without getting bored

I think that's one of the reasons they changed the experience system. I have both the Playstation and GBA version of FFI and in the PS version your exp to level up is a TON. You can spend hours just leveling up one level only to need another level because your still too weak. In the GBA version however, the exp to gain level dropped to about 10% of what you need in the PS version. I leveled up to 99 no problem. In the PS version I'm stuck leveling up to level 18 before the second crystal. That is one of the reasons it can be boring.

it is not the best ff of course but do not forget that ff 1 is were it all statred at least i thk it was lol. anyway it is pretty gud for the gba it can get tedious with all the random encounters and lack of direction. but still it has a nice classic feel to it.

I'd say its good.. But I reccomend getting a guide as well, even an FF Origins guide would do, because as Life&Glory said, the direction is lacking.

I have this game, and I can honostly say I don't really like it. I've only played Final Fantasy I, II, and VII, and I would have to say my favorite is definitley VII. I thought it was ridiculously hard at times, and I couldn't bring myself to play it for any more then maybe fifteen to twenty minutes at a time. Although I will say that I is a lot better then II, it's still not really good. Although if you consider yourself a big FF fan, you should definitley play it just to say you've played it.
