So Square-Enixu are all set to release the Supar Special Anniversary Edition of the CLASSIC NES RPG Final Fantasy.
Over the past few years, there have been many tinkerings and re-releases of this game, each more popular than the last.
Everybody has their Final Fantasy I remake. What's YOURS? _________________

Yeah, I know, and it did suck.
However, at the time, it was the only version I was aware of that I could pick up easily in the UK.
However, with Dawn Of Souls, I no longer have that problem anymore. |

I object to calling it "Playstation One," but that's what I voted for, because it was a serious improvement over the NES version, which is the only other version I have played. I never completed the NES version though, because some of its issues are inexcusable even for the time period when it was made. I mean, the Playstation version still sucks like an NES era game (honestly, there were better games in that era too, but I won't get into that), but at least it's bearable. I'd also like to point out that FF was the first game of the series I played (though only as a rental, FFIV was the first FF that I owned and completed) so I'm not hating it as some FFIV nub. I just think the series didn't really get good until FFIV. Anyway, yeah, Playstation version. _________________ Yuka offers you tea and biscuits  |

Actually, the S in PlayStation was capitalised.
The confusing thing was, PlayStation was colloquially referred to as PSX, but then Sony actually went and made something new in Japan called a PSX.
That happened near the time the PSone was released, so the PSone term has become something of a catch-all name for the PlayStation, no matter what it actually was. |

It was pretty much a straight port of the Wonderswan one though. _________________

Okay, I did not know all of that, but I still object to "Playstation One" or, more generally, any first installment of a series being retroactively referred to with a "one" in the title even though there's really no "one" there at all. So, I also have a problem with "FFI," although I acknowledge that it can be tricky when you're trying to differentiate comments about the series as a whole from comments about the first game in the series. _________________ Yuka offers you tea and biscuits  |

Well, the only way to get people to understand the difference between there, their, and they're is to keep on correcting them! _________________ Yuka offers you tea and biscuits  |

I don't know if that counts. I mean I'm not sure we should think of World War II as the sequel.... but maybe.... _________________ Yuka offers you tea and biscuits  |
