Eh, if I get a DS, I'll probably buy Dawn of Souls.

I believe that Square Enix may expand upon the game itself and its background in the event that they remake the game with updated graphics in a style similar to the highest resolution graphics. All reiterations of Final Fantasy I and Final Fantasy II have used two-dimensional graphics, so I think that they are still trying to capture that old school feel.

Give me one really, really good reason not to. It's a brilliant RPG that was essential to forming gamerising history: what more do you need? If you're a fan of the series, it's even more of a reason to play it. Even just mess around a bit on a friend's copy, you don't have to go all out on it.

Do you own a Playstation Portable? The latest revision of the game has everything from its prior incarnations along with the most up to date graphics.

^I do, but I like the idea of two games at once. Then the only FF I'd be missing is V. And XI...but I don't count that one.

I thought that the PSP version had Final Fantasy I and Final Fantasy II in the same package.

Everyone should play FF one at least once in their life.

Get a rom if you don't want to spend any money. However its legality is questionable.

No they don't. You can buy them together, but they are seperate UMD's for the PSP.

And I don't really know what to say about your problem hh1dluv. I enjoy FF I in its entirety, but sounds like you wouldn't really like it. I still think you should give it a go though. If you don't like it and your 2hrs in, then you can put it down.
