[QUOTE="Zulithe, post: 2705008, member: 4708"] I'm glad to see someone new taking interest in the series. I've been a fan for a long time. I was 11ish when I first played Final Fantasy 2 (IV, actually, but you'll learn all of this in due time...) on the Super Nintendo. I've now played all the previous games and all that followed, along with most everything else Squaresoft released. I could talk for hours on end about this series... but wikipedia does a mighty good job and I'd be saving myself some time. [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_fantasy[/url] You will find that to be a very good primer on the series. If you're looking to jump into the series, you can really start anywhere, since they are loosely related at best (in most cases) and even the ones that are related don't necessarily need to be played in any specific order (FFX and FFX-2 an exception!). If you own a PS2, you may want to try Final Fantasy X first. Or, perhaps an even better suggestion (depending on who you ask), pick up a copy of Final Fantasy VII (released for the original Playstation) and play that first. You can buy it new for around $20--maybe less. I'm rather biased in favor of Final Fantasy VI, but if you're spoiled by the graphics of today's games, you might find it visually underwhelming (they were groundbreaking for console graphics at the time of its original release, which stands true for most all Final Fantasy games) the story and emotion it contains, however, should not disappoint!
