main series game
ok hear that this game shouldn't even be in the main series cause it don't follow the final fantasy format but i believe that it has more right to be a main game then ff10 and deffently ff11 so post your thoughts on this issue here

oh and 6 through 9 made the format used for the best ff games

I dont understand what youre going on about. Shouldnt be part of the series because it doesnt follow the same format, yet it should because its better then 10 and 11? Confused!

It deserves to be where it is. How doesnt it follow the format? All the Final Fantasys are different, thats what makes them a great series.

people say ff8 should not be in the main series cause it don't follow the format of the earlyer and 1 newer game which it really does but they praise ff10 and ff11 for being so great yet they are farther off of the format set up by the leading ff games even rateings have started falling
(ff10 and up has not recieved a better score then a 90 yet from ff4-ff9 all got 100)
here i will call a smart person to the stand lupine

Maybe you should word your posts better. Seriosuly, its becoming difficult to understand you.

I dont recall anyone saying 8 shouldnt be part of the main series cause it doesnt follow others. Personally thats a stupid reason as Ive already said, none are really the same. Thats what makes the series so popular, because not every game is the same. Different characters, battle system, time periods.

What format!? Do you mean in the story, battle or something else?

And of course FFVIII as to be considered one of the main games of FF.

All the FF titles from I to XII are main titles!

FFX-2, FFVII Dirge of Cerberus, and so on...cannot be considered main games because they follow and already pre-existing story.

As for the others of course they are main titles thatīs why they are named FFI,FFII and so on...

That is only a minor plot in the game of 8. The main plot is to save the world from an evil sorcesses. Fighting Seifer is just a tiny plot.

And what other stuff? The music, story, battle system and characters are all different.

Answer: Yes. It's already considered a main game, what's the point in changing that?

no people on msn and other sites that have chat rooms say that it should not be considered as a main game.
and star the ff victory tone was the same from 1-7

Well thats their opinion isnt it? How they think that is beyond me as it comes after 7 and before 9 for God sake! Of course its part of the main series. These people are idiots.
