I recently dusted off my 360 and began collecting as games are dirt cheap, and was amazed that a retailer still carried brand new games for a 15 year old console.

I really disliked the original. The second was far better but it was a medium game to me. I beat both, and I could not shake the feeling the game did not meet the potential of what ff game could be. FF7R only reminds us of how good a FF can be. I was super interested in trying Lightning Returns. Should I try it? It seems to have addressed lots of issues the previous titles did not.

@potatoesandgravy7021 3 жыл бұрын

@@joelzicomcg Ff8 was the first game I played, and both 8 & 9 are my top games for separate reasons, but both hold a lot of nostalgia with me. Ten and twelve are next on my list, and 13-2 gets slot 5. I liked 13-2 because it felt like a breath of fresh air after what 13 ended up being. I loved Noel and Caius-- definitely some great character. Caius is still my fave antagonist to this day. I liked being able to capture and level up enemies to be in your party, snd i liked the freedom of hopping around the different worlds, going back and resetting levels and beating things you couldnt beat before cause you werent strong enough. Just a very different experience from any other FF and just a much different but interesting story than what was presented in 13. Even though you basically just had the two characters, i didnt feel like i was missing out of having more characters in my party since I thought the story arc around Noel was so interesting. The plethora of enemies you could have as your 3rd party member didnt hurt that either. Music was top notch too, but thats usually the case with any FF. 😊

I wish games like Streets of Rage 4 were actually developed to work on classic consoles. Bitmap Bureau put out a game called Xeno Crisis for Switch, PS4, XB1 and I think Steam, BUT they also released it on the Neo Geo, Sega Dreamcast AND the Sega Genesis.
