The Black Mage Village (Final Fantasy)

[Lionheart1827]

I have a problem. I have gotten a few FF midis because I love Nobuo's work. But I would like to convert them to MP3 for my MP3 player does anyone know how to do this?

Would you rather have all of the FF soundtracks in mp3 for free?

ffdream.com:thumb:

[PAJJ]

well, the game is originally japanese, so Yuna spoke Japanese. and her lips move in time with the japanese.

I know why the lips don't match, my point was other games manage it when they're made in japanese, why not FF, it's a big francise they always know it's going to be released world wide from the start of the game. It's not like it's a small game realeased only in japan then for some reason the rest of the world.


I think she talked slow to try and make the lip-sync more in time with the English version.

Yeah i thought that, but they didn't seem to care about the other characters, they talk'd normally.

Would you rather have all of the FF soundtracks in mp3 for free?

I fuking love you. That's incredibly awsome cheers. :thumb:

[numetaljordan]

wow ff tunes kick ***

[Happy]

Yup. It's a shame Kindom Hearts soundtrack wasn't that great.

[Chrysostom]

Yeah i thought that, but they didn't seem to care about the other characters, they talk'd normally.

Hmmm...yeah, come to think of it, Tidus was the only other character that seemed to suffer from 'massive gaps in dialogue sysndrome'. Wakka, Lulu, Auron, and Rikku all seemed to talk at a reasonable pace without any massive breaks. Still, that's what you get for having the original diolgue in Japanese.

but FF final boses in general are usually pretty easy.

I beg to differ. The fourfold fight at the end of FFVIII is a beast.

[Happy]

It was pretty difficult but once I unlocked Limit it was pretty easy. 20 Renzokukens and it was all over. However I did have to sit through Griever's Shockwave Pulsar once and Hell's Judgement a few times.

[Chrysostom]

It was pretty difficult but once I unlocked Limit it was pretty easy. 20 Renzokukens and it was all over. However you have to sit through Griever's move and Hell's Judgement a few times.

Well, I found it fairly difficult even if you didn't. The Griver music is awesome. 'Legendary Beast' or whatever.

[PAJJ]

Disagree VIII was an easy final boss, good old squall made it an easy fight, in fact the i didn't have any trouble with any final bosses, minus one of the earlier 4 or something, damn my goldfish memory.

[Chrysostom]

Yeah well, it took me several goes even if you didn't think it was hard. :p 'Auras' help alot.

[Happy]

Well, I found it fairly difficult even if you didn't. The Griver music is awesome. 'Legendary Beast' or whatever.
Yeah that's the one. I like "Maybe I'm A Lion" better, especially the Black Mages version. I also liked the fact in VIII that whatever you named Squall's ring, that was Griever's name.

[Chrysostom]

Yeah that's the one. I like "Maybe I'm A Lion" better, especially the Black Mages version. I also liked the fact in VIII that whatever you named Squall's ring, that was Griever's name.

Which boss is "Maybe I'm a Lion" played for? And it's a shame you can't summon Griever yourself.

[Happy]

It's played for Ultimecia/Griever. When they join together.

[Chrysostom]

It's played for Ultimecia/Griever. When they join together.

Oh right. I was wondering where TBM got that one from. Incidentally, I'll get to hear the in-game version soon enough, as I work my way steadily through the game.

[2muchket!]

Advent Children should be released soon :D

[Chrysostom]

Advent Children should be released soon :D

Don't talk about it until it is. Quite a few people in this thread haven't seen it. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[Happy]

When's AC released in Engerland?

[Chrysostom]

When's AC released in Engerland?

No idea. :(

[2muchket!]

March 20th I do believe

[Happy]

wow. I'm starting a countdown.

[PAJJ]

Play and Amazon have it down for release on the 24 April.

[Happy]

:angry:
Why is EVERYTHING delayed?

[red barchetta]

Those who want AC: ebay is amazing

http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/search.dll?cgiurl=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.co.uk%2Fws %2F&fkr=1&from=R8&satitle=advent+children&category0=

[Happy]

I've promised myself that'll I'll wait for this one.

[PAJJ]

yeah i've checked ebay, but are they english versions or what, alot of them look japanese. and ebay+dvd=bootleg/copy. Does anyone know if the english version will just be subbed or what?

[Happy]

Does anyone know if the english version will just be subbed or what?
****ing better not be. I could've seen a subbed version last year on the internet for free.

The spirits within wasn't subbed.

[2muchket!]

I will wait for AC, don't like auction sites due to those frickin ticket sites which prevented from getting tickets to go see AM.

Is there anyway I can get a CD of FF music :confused:

[PAJJ]

Someone posted a link to a site with all the music free in like last page or so, if you want the actually cd i've only seen them on ebay.

[Happy]

I will wait for AC, don't like auction sites due to those frickin ticket sites which prevented from getting tickets to go see AM.

Ebay for the actual CDs but you can get all the MP3s for any FF off ffdream.com

[red barchetta]

you can get some of the CDs from amazon too

[andyhainey]

March 20th I do believe

i heard they are getting really famous people to do the voices, i.e. barret > will smith

[PAJJ]

Please tell me your lying, and Happy it has english voices, or there's a cast list for english voices, but i'm not looking any further as i want to know as little as possible before i watch it.

[MBS]

http://www.ffdream.com/ is the site I have for the CDs, I'm downloading most of them when I get cable.

Oh, I've been beaten. Anyway, what's the best FF soundtrack, do you guys think?

[red barchetta]

ffdream is such a good site, cos you can download the entire soundtrack in a zip folder. shame it doesnt have OSTs of other games apart from FF, kingdom hearts and a couple more.

[Happy]

i heard they are getting really famous people to do the voices, i.e. barret > will smith
NO! Mr T for Barret!

[MBS]

ffdream is such a good site, cos you can download the entire soundtrack in a zip folder. shame it doesnt have OSTs of other games apart from FF, kingdom hearts and a couple more.

It has the OST for Pirates of the Carribean, which I wanted soley for the song that plays when Jack Sparrow sails in on his sinking boat into Port Royal.

[2muchket!]

Will smith for barret eh ? that'll be intresting. Although I agree with Happy
Mr T would be an excellent choice :p

[crag]

Mr T would make an awesome Barrett

[Chrysostom]

Barret: BA Baracus

Tifa: Reese Witherspoon anyone?

[-Listy-]

Will Smith would ruin Barret! :angry:

/drunken rage.

Mr T all the way.

[Liberi Fatali]

In theory Mr T would be good. But if he played Barret, I couldn't help but think "thats Mr T, not Barret."

[-Listy-]

:lol: True, they're so similiar, except Mr T didnt have a machine gun arm, that actually would have made The A Team AMAZING.

Oh, I've been beaten. Anyway, what's the best FF soundtrack, do you guys think?

Definitely FFVIII. get the piano collections aswell.

[Timm]

/downloading FFVII AC soundtrack
/listnes to fragments of memories off the FFVIII OST
/feels sleepy

[Liberi Fatali]

Such a sad song that is. :(

Oh and the best FF OST for noobs is Final Fantasy VIII: Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec. Then I find its better to get into the actual OSTs for the games, then the piano collections later on.

[Timm]

Such a sad song that is. :(

I think it's actually a sweet lullaby
the situation in the game is sad yeah :(

[Happy]

Barret: BA Baracus

Tifa: Reese Witherspoon anyone?
Maybe, I can't think of anyone who could play her.

[2muchket!]

Reese Witherspoon, hmmmmmmmm maybe

[Chrysostom]

I've actually just found out a couple of names for AC voices. Or thought I had, but apparently it's not true. Or might not be.

[Happy]

Do tell us, Mike.

[Chrysostom]

Well, the official US AC site updated recently suggesting:

Aeris: Mina Suvari

Cloud: Steve Burton

Tifa: Rachel Leigh Cook

However, this updats was later removed, so God knows what's happening

[sexymuffin]

So i just downloaded and watched the japanese version of AC with subtitles.

Simply amazing. Beautiful animation with some of the coolest/most clever action scenes i've seen in a film.

Cloud is so badass.

[Liberi Fatali]

What ever happened to the FF band btw that some of you guys were participating in?

[MBS]

So I just started playing VIII again, and after all of these years of not getting the junction system, I get it now. I have 100 fires junctioned to my attack, and 100 sleep junctioned to my special junction. I have a 100% chance of putting enemies to sleep when I attack them. :cool:

[Lionheart1827]

What ever happened to the FF band btw that some of you guys were participating in?

Ninja Editors, RIP.

I was one of the "members" but I ended up getting way too busy with school and exams and I promised I'd work on drum tracks as soon as I was on vacation, but by then I'd lost interest. Most other people lost interest as well, and I took up some new projects on my own.

I recorded a very very rough demo of JENOVA which was our first song though it was nothing special. :thumb:

Steve Burton did Cloud in KH. He's pretty good. Mena's in American Pie isn't she?
Dunno how that'll go and RLC's not in anything I've ever seen.

and upon searching IMDB, I found that Steve Burton already has been credited for AC, so I guess he's in it.

EDIT: According to IMDB Joh Di Maggio's gonna be in it too. :D

[Lord Abortion]

I still vote Samuel L Jackson as Barrett

[PAJJ]

I think all those were the people that did the voices for the guest apperances in KH, the rumor was the people who did the voices in KH would reprise the roles for AC, and those 3/4 (i forget how many) were for a brief time confirmed.

[Chrysostom]

According to IMDB Joh Di Maggio's gonna be in it too. :D

No way? That's awesome. His was some of the best voice work in FFX.

I suspect I know who he'll be cast as too.

[DeusExMachina]

This may be old hat, but Setzer from FFVI will be in KH2! Huzzah!

[kamiccollo]

Who is Joh Di Maggio? and who'd he do in X?

[Happy]

I think all those were the people that did the voices for the guest apperances in KH, the rumor was the people who did the voices in KH would reprise the roles for AC, and those 3/4 (i forget how many) were for a brief time confirmed.
The voice for Aeris in KH was Mandy Moore.

Barret's gonna be some guy who was in Lilo and Stitch

John DiMaggio was Wakka in X, Bender in Futurama and he's gonna be some character called Loz.

[Chrysostom]

John DiMaggio was Wakka in X, Bender in Futurama and he's gonna be some character called Loz.

I knew it! Man I'm smart. That was my guess. :cool:

[kamiccollo]

He did Wakka and Bender?! Thats some impressive voices, they dont sound anything alike.


I was watching the Green Mile yesterday and you know who I was thinking for Barret?......

Mainly because the guys massive but the voice isnt far off how I imagined it.

[Chrysostom]

They should get Kelsey Grammar to do Red.

[Happy]

I couldn't find the voice for Red.
The guy who does Sephiroth has been in loads of animes, including Transformers ones :cool:
And the guy who does Cid has been in Lord of The Rings.

[kamiccollo]

hahaha you kidding right? aaaahahahahaha


whats with the new account??

[Chrysostom]

And the guy who does Cid has been in Lord of The Rings.

Who is that?

[Happy]

Who is that?
Chris Edgerly. he was Aragorn in LOTR.

[kamiccollo]

Chris Edgerly. he was Aragorn in LOTR.


Wont that voice sound to young for Cid? He supposed to be about 40 ish in VII isnt he?

[Chrysostom]

Chris Edgerly. he was Aragorn in LOTR.

He bloody well wasn't. That was Viggo Mortensen.

Edit: my bad, you meant in the game.

[Chrysostom]

Wont that voice sound to young for Cid? He supposed to be about 40 ish in VII isnt he?

32 in FFVII.

[kamiccollo]

32 in FFVII.


Really! In my head he was quite old with grey hair. Something about pilots wearing that sort of flying gear makes me automatically think of an 'old guy'.



Why the hell have my posts going down?!

[Chrysostom]

Why the hell have my posts going down?!

An accident last night where the whole first page of PN&WI got deleted.

You lost em all. They are irretrievable.

[red barchetta]

This may be old hat, but Setzer from FFVI will be in KH2! Huzzah!
seriously? awesome :D

its a shame hardly anyone will know who he is though.

[DeusExMachina]

seriously? awesome :D

Yeah. Unfortunately, he's the only pre-FFVII character, but it's still exciting.

page 420 lulz.

[Lionheart1827]

Yeah. Unfortunately, he's the only pre-FFVII character, but it's still exciting.

CYAN SHOULD BE IN IT!

But Setzer is a badass anyway.

I hope hes played by a good voice actor.:thumb:

[MAthiAS]

Setzer is pretty poor as far as VI characters go. I mean, you could've had Locke, Celes, Cyan, Shadow, Sabin...

[Lionheart1827]

[rippa32]

So what is the best old FF? I have finished IV and am about to finish V(At least I think so. I'm up to the bit where the two worlds just got melded). I prefer V but it has way too many Random Encounters it just gets annoying but still overall better than IV. Oh btw how do I get the Mime job? I saw it in the instructions and now the beginner hall in tule mentioned it but I don't have it.

But enough of that, what is your favourite old FF?

to get Mime: you know where that tower sunk in the first world? go to that place using the submarine. you get 5 minutes to get to the crystal shard and back out. this isnt hard unless you're using an emulator - you need an FAQ in order to navigate through the black screen.

once you get to the crystal, you'll fight Gogo. beat him in a special way to get Mime (i'll leave you to work out how).

and as for best old FF, VI is overall the best, whether if its the best old FF or the best FF ever.

[Pop music sucks]

Yes VI was quite enjoyable.

[Happy]

FF3 was my favourite old FF.

[2muchket!]

FF3 was my favourite old FF.

II for me, was the first FF I played

[Happy]

I died like 5 minutes into II. :upset:

[holy_roller99]

definitaly VI. they had a pretty good stroyline and gameplay. soem of the characters were pretty useless but setzer was useful if you knew how to use the slots or GP rain.( if you have the right relic ;)) Loke was always in my party as was Celise but Gau was a pain to get all of his Rages and magic was useless.

[kamiccollo]

All this pre-FFVII talk flies straight over my head.


I was thinking of playing one of them, which ones would you guys recommend me to try first?

[holy_roller99]

go straight to the beginning and move on up. i would try 2 then 6 ( or 3 if you are thinking old school) then move to 5. it all depends on your preferences. you might get annoyed at 2 because of the lack of being able to choose your characters through the game. i mean you get a good guy and he dies and is replaced as it goes through the story.

[2muchket!]

Only played really FFII and the later ones. Tryin to get my hands on FF 9 without using an auction site.

[holy_roller99]

Only played really FFII and the later ones. Tryin to get my hands on FF 9 without using an auction site.

try EB games. they usually keep old PS1 games and stuff.

[Lionheart1827]

I WOULD say start with VI, but then if you try playing the others it would be even harder to get into because VI is so good and polished compared to the earlier ones(other would beg to differ though).

So I'd say pick up Origins for playstation, play I and II, then play IV and you can choose if you want to play 5 or 6. I believe they progressively got better through to 6.:thumb:

[Brew]

FFI is a great starting point for the older games.

Save money and buy FF Anthology. It's got V, VI and some other thing, both which I liked.

[rippa32]

Anthology has V and VI, thats it Chronicles has IV and Chrono Trigger. I personally have Anthology European edition which is IV and V and I can buy VI seperately.

[red barchetta]

or if you hate long loading times, you can get FFIV for the GBA.

[kamiccollo]

Might go for the antholgy deal. Why is the euro one IV/V and the normal V/VI? (europeans, got to be difficult...)

And out of I,II,III, IV which are the better ones youd reccomend. Not just graphics but also storyline?


or if you hate long loading times, you can get FFIV for the GBA.

Dont want to have to buy a GBA. Are the loading times really that bad?

[MAthiAS]

Yeah, they are brutal. 1.5 seconds every time you open up the menu :upset:

[Happy]

Heh, it doesn't sound like that long but after a while it really starts to piss you off.

Get FFI

Its simple, yet great.

[Lionheart1827]

I just noticed you got your name changed.:thumb:

[rippa32]

The loading times on IV aint that bad but V is about 3 seconds. At the moment I am playing it through a PS1 but sometime I might put it in my PS2 and use that speed up load times of PS1 games option.

And to that guy who asked about the European edition. I really dont know why the PAL Version has Iv instead of VI but it reall annoys me because I can't get Chrono Trigger now (Although Ive played it through an emulator).

[kamiccollo]

Damn those loading times then! Maybe I can borrow a GBA. Are theyre load times decent? and I assume the actual games have not been changed? And what about emulators are they as slow?

GBA cartridges and ROMs for emulators dont have any loading time. they dont have any cut scenes or anything though, but i'll sacrifice them for smooth gameplay anyday.

i think they improved the graphics slightly for FFIV on the GBA. and i think they made the game easier and better in some ways (eg. you can 'dash' in towns etc by holding the B button. you can't do it in the original japanese one :angry: )

Eyes on me is a better song than Melodies of Life, yes, but MoL had a greater impact on me when i first heard, cos it fitted in so well with the ending of FF9.

the songs in FFX-2 were just crap. although i did hum along to Real Emotion for a bit :upset:
oh crap now its stuck in my head :upset:

I just tried it. It knocks about a second off but of course it is still quite annoying but worth it for such a great game. Also I know the smoother texture options also work because it fixed up those blocky textures on the original Gran Turismo. But unfortunately some games dont take to that option all that well.

Yeah its worth it, it'll just annoy the living piss out of you.

[rippa32]

Haha I know what you mean. Also the incredible amount of random accounts annoyed the hell outta me, but that would be in all versions. It got to a point where I just ran from every fight because I really did not feel like doing it.

[Pop music sucks]

Watching through the previews on my Godzilla: Final Wars DVD there was a trailer for Advent Children in DVD quality.

Holy crap it's so vivid compared to my pirated copy of Advent Children. It will have to due until the American release comes out.

[Chrysostom]

Yeah so...I've just got passed the bit after Bevelle on FFX. The bit straight after you defeat Seymour is awesome. I am of course referring to the FMV of Yuna and Tidus in that lake thing in Macalania Forest. Quality stuff. I even went back and watched it all again. :D

I love it how Kimahri smiles knowingly...

[Happy]

I didn't like that bit. For some reason I hate the romance side of FF8 and 10.

[Chrysostom]

For some reason I hate the romance side of FF8 and 10.

WAH!? The romance bits are clearly the best! Especially in VIII. I love the bit in FFX, tis awesome.

[MAthiAS]

The romance in VIII is what makes that game great...

[MidnightRider]

Meh, IX has the best romance by far. I have fantasies about Dagger.

[crag]

i don't mind the romance scenes but people tend to come into my room when the romance scenes are happening. They always give me odd looks:upset:

[Chrysostom]

Meh, IX has the best romance by far. I have fantasies about Dagger.

Lolz. VIII had the most fully developed romance of any FF yet.

[MAthiAS]

Meh, IX has the best romance by far. I have fantasies about Dagger.
Lol, pedo.
Lolz. VIII had the most fully developed romance of any FF yet.
By far. Beautifully done.

[Chrysostom]

By far. Beautifully done.

Although I've always felt that Squalls character development wasn't made very obvious. It seemed to me that on disc one he was anti-social and then from around the third quarter he wasn't, and I couldn't remember ever seeing him work up to that point, if you take my meaning. It could have been done better, made more obvious.

[MAthiAS]

It seemed like he had a lot of up and down in the way of becoming... not anti-social. I liked it, I can relate.

[Chrysostom]

In other news, I've seen the trailers for both FFVII: DC and FFXII. Both look kick ***.

[MAthiAS]

Link me up to the DC one bro.

[Happy]

Meh, IX has the best romance by far. I have fantasies about Dagger.
Same here. Minus the fantasies.

[Chrysostom]

Link me up to the DC one bro.

Well, I could, but it's not just DC. It's other stuff from E3 '05. You only get about 30 seconds of footage, so maybe it's not worth it.

[MAthiAS]

What about the XII one?

[red barchetta]

dirge of cerberus trailers (http://www.ff7-doc.com/trailers.php)

[Chrysostom]

What about the XII one?

See what you think:

http://media.ps2.ign.com/media/488/488222/vids_1.html

There are two pages worth of videos. The first one on page one has DC clips. The fourth one on page two gives a great idea of in-game graphics.

[Lord Abortion]

Yeah, alot of people relate to Squall. I know I do, I love the fact he's just some kid who is being forced to save the world. Not like the other hero mentality characters

[MAthiAS]

Yeah, he's also more relateable than Cloud, whose got the whole identity crisis sci-fi thing.

[Chrysostom]

He's a classic anti-hero really.

[Happy]

Yeah, alot of people relate to Squall. I know I do, I love the fact he's just some kid who is being forced to save the world. Not like the other hero mentality characters
Haha, I love you guys. I thought I was alone in feeling like Squall.

So I guess every dude who's played FFVIII relates to him?

[Lord Abortion]

Haha, I love you guys. I thought I was alone in feeling like Squall.

Most kids would I think.
Especially us FF addicts :)

[Chrysostom]

Yup. I act like him a lot of the time actually.

[Happy]

Come to think of it... so do I a bit.

[MAthiAS]

Yup. I act like him a lot of the time actually.
Ya, same. Everytime I play VIII through I love it more.

I like the new Rinoa avatar better too man. :thumb:

[Liberi Fatali]

I feel a bit like Squall at times. :upset:

[rippa32]

Im a bit like him. The whole I really dont care about other peoples problems thing I am.

[kamiccollo]

I can relate to certain aspects of his character. Come to think of it I could relate to every lead character from VII-X, really.


The thing about Squall is that as much as he doesnt want to, he does care about other peoples problems and opinions, hes just in denial. I also see a lot of similarities between Cloud and Squall, although I prefer Cloud. The basic outline of those two FF stories are quite similar.

[Chrysostom]

The basic outline of those two FF stories are quite similar.

Hardly. Cloud's story revolves around an identity crisis. Squall's is based on learning to rely on/open up to people.

P.S. I'm back baby! Correct join date and post count! :D Thanks Jim!

[Happy]

Cloud's story confused the hell out of me. Who is he made by? Hojo?

[Chrysostom]

Cloud's story confused the hell out of me. Who is he made by? Hojo?

I'm afraid I've never fully understood it. He was injected with Mako by Hojo...but that's the only thing that makes sense/I can remember.

[Lord Abortion]

Cloud's story confused the hell out of me. Who is he made by? Hojo?
He was a real person, who grew up in Nibelheim with Tifa and went off to Join SOLDIER, but only became a Shinra trooper. He returned to Nibelheim two years after, but as a trooper, not a SOLDIER as promised. He kept his mask on, because he felt ashamed, and was taken to the Reactor with Sephiroth, Tifa and Zack, Sephiroth goes crazy and destroys the town, upon the realisation that he is a clone, and Cloud follows him, and Kills him. After killing Sephiroth in the Nibelheim reactor, Cloud was taken, and along with Zack, experimented on, and Injected with mako by Hojo (This is why he has "that glow" despite never actually joining SOLIDER.) After three years they eventually escape, and make it to close to Midgar, although Cloud is very sick and ill. Near Midgar, Zack is shot by shinra troops, leaving Cloud to die. Cloud manages to crawl into Midgar, where he is discovered in the station by Tifa. Seeing her again makes Cloud better, and he takes Zack's history, as he feels ashamed at his failing to become a SOLDIER. He is persuaded to help in the Reactor Bombing, under Zack's chosen guise as a mercenary. This is the start of the game.

[Chrysostom]

But if I recall correctly, Tifa knows that he's appropriated Zack's past but doesn't tell him that because she fears it'll screw him up. Also, I'm pretty sure he'd had a Mako injection before the incident at the reactor, because he manages to with stand being stabbed straight through his body, and at this point Sephiroth remarks on the glow in Cloud's eyes and asks him who he is.

Not sure about the first point, as I can't remember when that is, but the second one is probably correct, he probably had one before...I need to play this again, as the ten or so times I've completed it seem so long ago :p

[MAthiAS]

There used to be this site with Q&A that answered all these questions perfectly, but everytime I need it I can't find it lol.

[crag]

I remember i found a site that went through all the details of FFVII. I posted it here i think.

[Chrysostom]

Wikipedia answers all things. I understand it once again.

[Brew]

hey guys, I'm moving house tomorrow and won't have as much acess to the internet as I have right now, so all I have to say to you all is don't let this thread die!

I'll be around every now and again, I think I may now find the time to play through FFX again...

:wave:

[numetaljordan]

I think so. Both Clouds and Squall stories revolve around them being closed and somewhat aloof. They're both Loners at the start and both in denial about themselves and in some emotional turmoil. Neither are particularly social either. Cloud at first just wants to earn the money and get out as quick as possible, much to the annoyance of Barret. Their past is also cloudy to themselves at best.(Get it!).

The basic character outlines are very similar to begin with. Obviously as you go into more detail they become different and the causes of what makes them the way they are are different, as they are different stories. I just cant help but imagine the Square brainstorming session for FFVIII as them sort of giving up and going something like:
"hmm, lets take Cloud, put a bit here.....tweak there...take a slice off here..add a bit... VOILA! SQUALL". In my head they seem to be french for some reason!? Dont question why, dammit).

You may be right there, but the games they put them in and the way the stories are told are different. With Squall you see everything from his point of view, you hear all his thoughts, etc. With Cloud, you don't, its mostly trying to piece the/his story together, which is what he's trying to do anyway.

Hmmm...I suppose you might be right.

That's because it isn't important. But if you must know it's because I'm planning to delete my old email address which I used to register in 2003 as 'PremierPearl' ('Mike' being the same account).

[Happy]

I think I understand Cloud's story better now. Thanks.

If think thats why I like VII so much more. With Cloud your constantly leaning about him as a person, whereas in VIII you know where you stand at the start, and thoughout the story, with Squall, you understand him from the beginning since you play as him with all his thoughts etc. The extra mystery in VII appealls to me more.

Hmmm...I suppose you might be right.

Course I am. Dont try and Rinoawn me!

Ahh, tbh I preffered Premier/mike to the new one. When I first saw chrysosom I though to myself wtf is that? So im guessing yours is the phillosopher and not John of Antioch then! /google/wikied it.

[rippa32]

I think the reason FFVII's story was so needlessly complicated was because of a really poor translation. I have seen a site(cant remember which) that explains it all even the bits kinda skimmed on in the translation. But what was mentioned before was the basic idea of it.

[manuscriptreplica]

http://db.gamefaqs.com/console/psx/file/final_fantasy_vii_plot.txt

If anyone can be bothered to read that, it explains thing pretty well.

[kamiccollo]

I though FFVII story was pretty easy to understand. Admitedly after the first time through the game you forget things that help later on, but during the second play through I thought it was pretty straightforward. Or is that just me? I think it helps that I was around 13/14 at the time I played it. I know some here played it when they were way younger than that.

[Hodgy1986]

Yeah, I played VII first when I was around 10 or 11.
It was just either just after or before VIII came out, I think.

[MAthiAS]

Eh, they both appeal to me for different reasons. I relate to Squall more, but with Cloud I never understand his story for any extended period of not playing the game, so there's always replay value there.

I always understand it fully when I go through it, but totally forget everything when I finish the game =/
I think the reason FFVII's story was so needlessly complicated was because of a really poor translation.
Maybe partly. I don't see why they don't have translators that had English as their first language, so they can tell if the meaning is getting across right, as opposed to having a direct translation.

[numetaljordan]

ive always enjoyed 8 over 7, yet i havent found a reason for why i do

i think i was around 8-12 when i first played it. I also missed a large chunk of the second disk because it froze just after the Aeris killing FMV, so that might explain why i've never fully understood the story:(

[Happy]

I remember first playing FFVII back in Year 3. I was 8 :D

[crag]

It's strange, my brother is 9 right now and i can't imagine him completing an FF and understanding the story yet it seems some of us were roughly that age when we played it:confused:

[holy_roller99]

yeah. when i first started doing RPG's i was the kind that didn't care about the story and to try and finish it asap but now i try to enjoy it. a the good old days of being an springing, impatient, child.:)

[Chrysostom]

I didn't change accounts because of the name. And yes, my Chrysostom refers to Dio of Prusa (the golden-mouthed = Chrysostom).

[Chrysostom]

I was 12 when I played VII and I didn't totally get the story. I still don't unless I'm playing it.

[PAJJ]

I've always read the story in FF, even when i started with the snes games when i was a child, but it's one of the only games i had time for. I remember someone lending me balduers gate when i must of been 13ish and just skipping through it because i didn't care.

[kamiccollo]

Hmm so a lot of you played when you were younger than I was, that might explain our preferences, the age we played.

mx tabs is back up and running, thank god i cant find any good tabs anywere else

[enjoimx]

i actually didnt use it much i use powertab, i recccomend it

[rippa32]

I was fairly young when I played FFVII as well and I got confused alot because sometimes I took a different meaning as to what was intended with the text. Now that I am 17 I fully understand it now, and I'm playing through FF8 as well and understanding bits that I was confused about before.

[kamiccollo]

mx tabs is back up and running, thank god i cant find any good tabs anywere else


Ive spent ages looking for decent ones, now Mx is back up ive seached their ones and they suck also. :angry:
At least the ones Im looking for.


Also does anyone here have some tabs for some of the black mages songs? Ive figured out the intro to hunters chance myself because the ones I found were either retarded/over simplified or quite literally not the same song! Its just too time consuming to figure them out myself. Any would be great!

[Happy]

i actually didnt use it much i use powertab, i recccomend it
If only that wasn't down.

[2muchket!]

I got into FF when 9 came along, but still my fav is still 7. Then 9 I'd say

EDIT: I'm glad Mx is back now I can find an accuarate tab for Whom The Bell Tolls

you can find some GuitarPro tabs, at http://www.mysongbook.com. there are some accurate tabs there. there's also a site where you can download the official sheet music, but i forgot it. i think you'll find it in the Ninja Editors' thread.

You could also get the midi for the original and put it into power tab.

[Chrysostom]

Bump.

So yeah. I'm quite excited about FFXII and FFVII:DC. Although I'm quite worried about the fact that fights in FFXII aren't going to be turned-based. We'll see how that works out.

Wow. That piano guy kicks anus.

Apparently there's a 'wait' and 'active' mode, like in previous ones. In wait you control every character's every turn, and I think menus pause everything. In active you control one guy, though you can change whenever you want, and you get menus for that one guy and everything is completely active, with AI controlling the rest of your party.

Pretty crap IMO, if you watch the demo it looks like single player WoW. But I'm optimistic about the story as it supposedly includes "empires and stones and stuff that everyone is trying to get ahold of". Zodiac stones anyone?

Well, as long as theres still a turn based option, I wouldn't call it crap. The FMV I've seen is totally killer.

[MAthiAS]

Meh, FFX had killer FMVs...

[Lord Abortion]

FFX was killer all over.

[Chrysostom]

FFX was killer all over.

It is a good game.

[MAthiAS]

Fair enough, I disagree though.

[red barchetta]

im sure its been mentioned like 300 times in this thread, but FF8 had the most killer FMVs.

[MAthiAS]

That it did. Along with some kickass music. Listening to the IX OST yesterday... I never realized how, err, mediocre most of IX's music is, though there are a few exceptions.

Sick avatar by the way.

[Chrysostom]

That it did. Along with some kickass music. Listening to the IX OST yesterday... I never realized how, err, mediocre most of IX's music is, though there are a few exceptions.

It has the least interesting music yes. Although the Evil Forest/Pinnacle Rocks theme is great FF music.

[MAthiAS]

Ya, I think Hunter's Chance and Vamo a Flamenco are the best TBM songs too, and You're Not Alone is great too... but other than that there's not too much there. But VII I can listen to the whole soundtrack straight through and love all of it.

[Chrysostom]

You're Not Alone is great too.

Huh?

EDIT: Nevermind.

The theme for Dali village is nice. Very relaxing.

Actually, y'know I'm listening to the midis on ffonline.com and I'm starting to disagree with you, there's some really nice music in IX.

[Lionheart1827]

im sure its been mentioned like 300 times in this thread, but FF8 had the most killer FMVs.

It definately did. Best intro ever. Also the Garden battle was one of the greatest sections of the game. Also "The Landing" was an awesome FMV.:thumb:

[Phalanx]

yeah, I thought FF8 had the best FMVs as well, I just think it's the best Final Fantasy actually, there's very little to fault with it. It easily had the best battle music

[Lord Abortion]

IX has good relaxing music in parts.

[MAthiAS]

It easily had the best battle music
I disagree there, both VI and VII had better IMO.

[Phalanx]

for me, the FF8 battle music had that extra cheese factor. The FF7 boss theme tune's a classic though

[MAthiAS]

good

The only thing that ruined it for me was the amount of waiting you had to do in places. It got tedious.

[Liberi Fatali]

I agree with a lot of what has been said on this page, cept for the cheese bit.

To me the FFVIII music was the most, 'professional' of any Final Fantasy game. The closest Nobuo has gotten to composing for a movie.

Whilst IX is the most mellow, relaxed, sorrow, mournful etc FF soundtrack, whilst at times chirpy, retro and a tribute to the series past.

[rippa32]

The music played on the SeeD test when you land in dollet is just great. But I love all of FF8's music. Did Nubuo do the music for the Final Fantasy movie? Which is much better than most people thought I reckon. (Movie I mean, can't remember the music)

[Liberi Fatali]

Nah he didn't, which is a real shame in my opinion. Some guy called Elliot Goldenthal did it, who has also done the music for SWAT, Batman Forever and Alien 3.

I really did not like that movie. >:[

[Chrysostom]

I disagree there, both VI and VII had better IMO.

Yeah. VII had the best battle music, on the basis that it didn't get really boring even if you were in one place levelling up characters.

VIII really nailed the romantic side of FF musically, while VII was spot on in it's attempt to convey a grim, depressing and emotionally downbeat world through the music.

[Happy]

Which movie? There's Spirits Within and AC.

[Lord Abortion]

He means spirits within.

I love the VII music alot, it has so many happy gaming memories.

[Happy]

Spirits within was kinda boring. Just dragged on about nothing.

[Chrysostom]

Spirits within was kinda boring. Just dragged on about nothing.

Never seen it. Don't want to.

[Chrysostom]

Oh man. Some of the VII music actually makes me teary. :(

[Phalanx]

Oh christ Spirits within was awful, apart from name, it had very little to do with the games.

[Chrysostom]

On a side note, anyone considering purchasing any other Square-Enix RPGs due out this year? Things like Grandia III, Drakengard 2, Radiata Story, Dragon Quest VIII, Code Age Commanders?

[spitfirejunky]

As far as I know, Radiata Story is the "next biggest thing."
