I agree. Being able to look at a game's manual (even glancing through it) was something I often did when I got a new game. Also, video games becoming digital form only is terrible. There's something special about holding a game in your hands, you're absolutely right.
Absolutely. And I'm glad we can still play some of those old games on the new consoles via WiiWare/PSN/Xbox Live Arcade. I hope they keep that up. I fear that consoles are only going to get more and more complex, and I can't keep up.
Right. Waiting for a game to load was unheard of for SNES and N64 (because they were cartridges). Also, the internet connection can be choppy, which can be annoying or frustrating.
I as well. And you're right, online play takes away the split screen, which is something I remember with great fondness.
Thanks for sharing. Some of those old games never get old (uh, wait a minute...)
I've played all three, they're all good games in their own right. In fact, all of these games are considered classics today. Great article!
Thank you! He's one of my favorites too.
Right, the music is probably the best part of the FF series.
Thanks. (the chocobo's not as hard as some of the villains)
