Loved FFIX and is the best PlayStation FF too, not perfect with the crappy Trance system and the game sorta lost the pace from the end of the third disk onwards but still better than the rest.

I can't say I hated it. it's just not that interesting as the other FF games. It's a little too... childish for my taste. What I do like about this game is that it's simple and traces back it's more simpler roots as a game.

My favourite game. People hate it because they're horrible idiots.

I liked it. It was nice to play a Final Fantasy IX that tried to go back to its roots, it was a lovely change of pace after Final Fantasy VII and VIII. But I think that is exactly what some people hate about it, they wanted something that was more like the two other PSone installments. Final Fantasy IX wasn't childish, but the other two games had a more mature air surrounding them, and many people are attracted to that.

But if you ask me, it's a good thing the Final Fantasy series keeps changing and changing, it's the only way to keep the series alive. Sure, some experiments are going to fail, but a series this long needs to evolve and that can't happen if developers are too affraid to try something new or different.

Did you just say that all the Final Fantasy's after IX sucked?

And I believe there is a discussion of the Versus trailer going on in the appropriate forum, I suggest you look there.

I feel like this is one of the most underrated games in the entire series. It has an awesome storyline and really cool characters. Is it because Zidane isn't your average, keep to himself cold hearted and sarcastic person like Cloud or Squall? I always wondered this...
