FF4 was one on the the better ones. I think it's has favourite regular battle theme aswell.

AndrewRyan4882d ago

Great! This is awesome Square Enix! Another re release with no graphical improvements whatsoever! I love it when you copy and paste super nintendo games and put a $40.00 price tag on them!

Thank god for Square Enix! :)

Joke comment? 'cause you started being sarcastic one way, and then wrong the other.

It has upgrades all over the place, nice looking 2D-sprites like the 20th Anniversary games. Not to mention it includes the exclusive Japanese Mobile/Wii-Ware sequel...

EDIT: Aw forget it! I'll give this "another" play-through... They better credit H.S in this one.

This was first RPG that got me hooked on to RPGs. Before FF4, there was not a game that drew out different emotions from me for video game characters. This game had it all, betrayal, epic sacrifice, shocking twist, etc. AND it didn't need super bad-ass graphics to do so. But how can this be? Well, that's the magic of good character development, great soundtrack and story.

Why do they rerelease old games like this when we have a better ds version they could fix up for psp? Id prefer the ds version to this, but if you love nostalgia, youl love this. Id like ffx-12 on psp or ps3 hd collection.

PrettyinPurple4882d ago (Edited 4882d ago )

Seriously, there's no way I'm supporting this. You just don't re-release a game 3 times in the same generation.

This is the "9th" release of Final Fantasy IV! Stop taking the piss! I'm sure it could probably be the definitive version after the SNES original, but this makes me sick.

R_aVe_N4882d ago

I agree 100% SE is one of the worlds worst when it comes to releasing the same game over and over. The sad thing is people keep buying it...

Quietpower104882d ago

Well I personally never played Final FAntasy IV before, but now that it's being remade to the PSP I'll now have the opportunity to play this classical game.

HungryGoku4882d ago (Edited 4882d ago )

Like Cod it's the same thing people can do whatever they want with there money.

GeneGodHand4882d ago (Edited 4882d ago )

I want it never finished it do you have a psp? @izuna

PrettyinPurple4882d ago

Yeah I do; believe me when I say you gotta give it a fair a shot. First timers will enjoy this re-release I'm sure.

femshep4882d ago

and yet FF versus 13 still isn't out yet

Thoreau4882d ago

TANUKI4882d ago

I never did end up beating that damn Kaiser Dragon.

DarkOcelet2995d ago

I cant wait to see the dragons we will fight in FFXV. I hope the fights are tough as nails.

AdventNick2995d ago

Ruby is tough no doubt, but a whole lot easier if you go in with one party member

Dasteru2995d ago

For those that truly understand the game mechanics and take advantage of them. Omega weapon will only actually have around 182k health.

The Top 6 Best Final Fantasy Heroes of All-Time

David Jagneaux of The Koalition writes: "Final Fantasy, such a wonderful franchise with so many characters to talk about and stories to tell. Most gamers remember their first moments with a Final Fantasy game and the series is now so legendary that it truly transcends its medium of existence. With over a dozen games, hundreds of characters and thousands of hours of content, the franchise has defined the entire role-playing genre for several years. While it is no easy task narrowing down a list of who we think are the best heroes that the long-running franchise has to offer, we decided to give it a shot anyways. Below, you can check out the top 6 best Final Fantasy heroes of all-time as decided by me and Tom Skidmore."

A personal favorite of mine is Squall from FF8. Even though he is super bland compared to other characters in the series, I always loved the Gunblade and the events that happen to him and Rinoa. I thought that love story between them was pretty good.

rbailey3734d ago

Awesome list and great choices all around.

Lord_Sloth3734d ago (Edited 3734d ago )

Lack of Zidane and Delita makes me sad but the inclusion of Zack makes me happy.

I still like Cloud and don't think you needed to make so many jabs at him to promote Zack who's accomplishments speak for themselves. You should also note that Cloud was the 1 Tifa liked in the end and not necessarily Zack.
