- What's the big deal?
I may not get much support on my views here, but I'm going to put them forward honestly...
Ok First I'd like to say that I've only just been getting into FFIX HUUUGE fan of the series, I always made an effort to avoid playing IX however because from the looks of it I could tell it wouldn't live upto my expectations for a final fantasy title.
And it didn't, I don't know what it is about this game but it just doesn't seem to grip me like VII VIII and X did. If anybody has every played "Legend of Legaia" it feels too much like that to me...
Ofcourse there's FF trademark things in the game, familiar summoned creatures, familiar magics/status effects and items, chocobos etc...
But (atleast for me) it just doesn't have that spark, perhaps because the first title I played was VII then VIII so ofcourse my standards were going to be very high in the first place.
A few things I didn't like:
1. The skill learning system via items etc..(I know many of you guys love it)
2. The characters
3. The way it feels "silly" ...Perhaps just me, but it really did feel somewhat childish too... I know FF characters are traditionally young, but having a 6 and a 9 year old in your party? Come on.
4. The world map
I have a few other problems with the game too, but those are mostly it.
All in all, it's worth playing sure.
Worth replaying? You decide...
Rating: - the last ff on ps1
gosh that final fantasy 9 is great, okay i m an inconditionnal of the serie i start with 8 then 7 then 9 and at the time i wasn t a fan but i enjoy it even if instead of the original music i put pinchers
ne way i play so much that i got the caracters playing in mi head
of course it s too short compare to the ff 7 or the one b 4
all i want to say is that some rare game and some movie as well you really wish you could forget so you could find this pleasure of discovering again and ff9 is indeed among those one for me
Rating: - The Best Game Ever.
Final Fantasy IX is an amazing experience. It not only pushes the humble PS1 to its limit graphically but it pushes gaming to its limit in almost every other aspect as well. The story is phenomenal; it's deep, humourous and exciting. The characters have interesting personalities and many important concepts about life are explored as well. The music is excellent as well, with a range of styles being employed effectively to heighten the atmosphere. The gameplay is fun and enjoyable despite its lack of innovation and the minigames provide welcome breaks. This game will also last you for up to 80 hours on your first playthrough and its so fun you'll no doubt want to replay the experience. This is an AAA game that is a definite must buy!

- Good but not the best.....
Ok Ok we get the picture everyone says one thing or another I'm not gonna argue.
In the Long Series that is Final Fantasy this isnt the one you want to buy first. Honestly every FF fan knows FFIX isnt what it should of been.
If The Gameplay is easy and simple based on the controls that have been around for ages (FF7's controls hmm i wonder why...) the story line is slow to unfold and even slower to get the the point.
Most of the FF games from VII-XII have amazingly great story lines that dont take forever to unfold. And yet FFIX does, disappointing really the game had everything going for it. Great battle system, Amazing movie scenes, More Freedom to Roam and yet.... The story line and battle system let it down. If you are going to buy this game buy 7 aswell.
Play FFVII for about an hour (or more if you are anything like most players) then play FFIX and see if you notice the way 9 was poorly put together, Controls..... Battle System (though trance is a set time rather then one move)they're all from FFVII. You'll notice bits missing in the story that should be they're not the important bits but the little bits that would make this game so much more. Not my favourite FF and nor is FFVII, my favourite is FFXI and its expansions.
Personally I recommend this game (yeah i know i just basically said it was rubbish) but its worth putting up with all the faults for the movies and for the development of the characters. The Ending of this FF is what you would expect with every FF amazing, though there is alot of dialogue. I can happily say this is part of my collection of Final Fantasy games and I own from FFI to FFXII (yes even FFX-2 and FFXI). Hours of my life wasted playing each of them and for what you might ask.... Well its simple really, some of the most Amazing and breath-taking storylines ever to come to console are Final Fantasy.
