Final Fantasy 9 is a game you have to go out and buy. |
| E nyce from bridgeport,ct USA says (13/Mar/2002): |
It was a really a wonderful RPG. It had a good storyline, wonderful characters, and beautiful CGs. What I really like about the game was the new ability system. Also I liked the battle system too. I thought the game was kinda short though. But it was still alot fun. I think it was one of square's finest masterpieces.This is the best final fantasy game i've played thus far. I love the storyline, movies, characters, abilites, everything!!! If you haven't played it yet, your missing out.

BEST EVER! |
| John from Toronto, Canada says (3/Sep/2001): |
Fanal Fantasy 9 without a doubt is the best rpg game for playsation. It has everything you asked for the best grpaphics in the Final Fantasy series with amazing FMV movies with lots of action. It mixes the best of the other final fantasy's and brings in new features.It has one of the best ending ever, it has some hard bosses but in the end it will be worth it to see how the game unfolds. After beatin FF9 it will be hard to play another game because nothin will even match Final Fantasy 9.

Leader of the RPG's |
| Ma Al Ta from Ruabon,Wales says (27/Mar/2002): |
To sum it up in one, Final Fantasy 9 is spectacular. The movies are stunning, the battle system is spectacular and even though I worshipped Final Fantasy 7 & Final Fantasy 8, number 9 shall be it's leader! The storyline is immense because you get suked into there magical world. As Final Fantasy's biggest fan I have to say the characters lives are amazing (I wish I had a life like that?!). It could have been longer and harder but that is no excuse not to call it the best game ever!!!!

Ammazing game with ammazing cut scences |
| John says (1/Jul/2001): |
WOW, just brilliant! The graphics are good, the soiund it good not to mention all the ammazing attacks included. Come on, Vivi gets so many incrdable magic attacks. I know it's 4 disks and takes a long time to comlete (I haven't done it yet, but I'm on the last disk) but it really is fun. Well not much else to say. Except about the story line, I don't think it could have been much better. I haven't actuaally played any of the others but... I'm gonna get number 10 on the PS2!

Best one yet |
| Dabunzae says (19/Oct/2002): |
In my oppinion this is by far the best one yet and i have played all but 10. this one has alot of the orignal things from the older ones such as the abilities are limited to certain classes like black mages can only cast black magic and stuff like that. The story is one of the best yet and the characters arent big like final fantasy 8. the big characters made it seem less like final fantasy. the card is kinda cool too. all in all it was a good game but it needed more side quests.

Funny, Romantic and just plain cool! |
| Majin Buu from Nottingham says (24/Nov/2002): |
When I asked for a Final Fantasy game I had the choice of 7, 8 or 9. I had a good look at the graphics and I thought 8 had the best, however I was wrong! I got 9 due to the fact it was brand new to england but when I played it I was soo glad I got it! Not only are the graphics good but it has a great scence of humor to it along with a briliant storyline. I have finished this game over 20 times now and its always made me cry, smile and laugh a little. My advice is BUY THIS GAME!

Best FF Yet |
| Adam Moore from Hornell,NY U.S. says (28/Nov/2000): |
I was convinced that FF8 was the greatest FF game of all, until I finally got my hands on FF9. I think it is the best one squaresoft has created thus far. I love the cg movie cinimas that the game has. One of the best thing that I like about it,{even though I'm only at the ice cavern} is the ability to see what's going on in other areas. Also I like that romance that is developing between Zidane and princess Garnet. I hope FF10&11 like up to my expectations I have for them.

Something Not Quite Right |
| Patrick.H from Toronto, Canada says (8/Feb/2001): |
Of course everyone else would blatantly praise the merits of Square's latest mega-hit, but not I.
I became an avid Playstation fan due to the hooking storyline of FF7, and a year after, 8.
There was something subtle missing in FF9, I was not "drawn in" or "hooked" as I was in the prequels.
An unimaginative storyline and not-so-animated characters, I suppose.
The graphics and FMV are blameless, however.
An uninspiring game that lacks something precious in the FF formula.

The best game ever |
| stranger from UK ( wales ) says (20/Jul/2001): |
Final fantasy 9 is the best game ever. Other final fantasy games are boring. The game play is good,the video`s is the best I have seen and the battles are awesome.The graphics in final fantasy are amazing, btter than one of the others. The life span, well or I have to say is that I could`nt stop playing because I got really in to the game.
The fun factor is good, except for the chocobo`s tresaure which get`s a bit boring and frustrating when you can`t find any chcograpths.

My favorite final fantasy game/rpg |
| nin from baltimore maryland USA says (10/Nov/2002): |
I really enjoyed the story that came with this game and the graphics. I wish they had more like this with the same type graphics.. It remindes me of a story book with beautiful pictures. This RPG game Had me laugh as well as in tears and in the end I was screaming. This usually do not happen with me and these RPG games. I am usually taking a headach pill in the middle of playing. No offence to the other final fantasy games. I just couldn't follow them like I did FF IX.

Finally Final Fantasy has come back.... |
| Jim from Phila., PA says (16/Feb/2001): |
Call me an "old head", call me a "purist", but I think this FF is much better then 7 & 8. The whole point behind the FF series was fun, crazy, out-of-this world characters. I like how Squaresoft went back to the "old fashioned" mage character. The true-to-life characters of 8 were a total turn off for me. That's what I play Tomb Raider and Resident Evil for. I like my RPGs to have strange, cartoon-looking charaters. FF9 has brought me back! Thank you Squaresoft!!!

The best Final Fantasy today!! |
| DJ Soup from BC, Canada says (6/Aug/2001): |
This game has it all, superb graphics, superb play, superb controls, awesome effects, great story lines and battles, and some of the best characters around. This has to be one of the best designed games on the PS1 to date. There is ALMOST never any slowdown except for very jam packed parts but that doesn't mean anything. It happens in every game. I would choose this over FF3 or FF7, both of which I have played, and at $25 canadian (used of course) how can you go wrong!

This is the best game i have every played. |
| A gamer from USA says (19/May/2003): |
I knew final fantasy 9 would be good because i saw my brother play it. When i started playing it was so easy but later on it got harder. The good part about the game is that there are many side quests you can do. That makes the game a lot more interesting. My favorite character is Vivi. The game is also good because you can understand where you are supose to go. All the other games i play are harder to understand. Final Fantasy 9 will always remain as my favorite game.

i think |
| mike from usa carolina iowa arizona says (15/Jun/2003): |

The God of all Games |
| Johnathan from Cairnbrook,PA USA says (3/Nov/2003): |
I don't know why you guys can't appreciate such an awesome game as much as you should. The graphics totally blew me away!! It was as if it should be an early PS2 game. The story, like some said, was pretty much like a lot of stories, but it is still pretty cool with the airship chase in disc 1, and the first sight of Lindblum was incredible! And what's up with everybody and FF7? I mean it's okay, but not really that great.

A worthy sequel |
| Glen Mack from Birmingham, England says (9/May/2002): |
Although FF9 is a very good game in it's own right, I don't think the story or gameplay live up to that of FF8 or FF7. I have however, fallen in love with little Eiko Carrol, (A great name for her is Elphie, because she looks like an elf and reminds me of Selphie, from FF8) The graphics are vastly superior, but I think the music and atmosphere don't really feel very FF! Anyone wants to let me know what they think... uwgc< remove me > at yahoo.com

Another Squaresoft Jewel |
| Skuld from Amherst, NH USA says (4/Dec/2000): |
Again the masters at Squaresoft have done it again, Final Fantasy IX delivers just what you want. Plot twists, kiler character design, strange and unique puzzles... I could go on. Oh, did I mention it's next to impossible to go about your day without a second passing thinking about that moment when you resume play?
I'm not going to spoil your enjoyment of the game, I'll let you see for yourself what Final Fantasy IX has to offer.

The absolute best video game ever!!!!!! (Continued) |
| The Hatter from Driggs U.S.A. says (2/Mar/2003): |
Hey, it's me again. I've been messing with my game again. The summons I've gotten are the greatest! I mean, I had some cool ones before, but now, their almost udescribably awsome! I don't want to ruin it for new gamers, so I won't give their names or attacks. And I've found Garnets real name. I personally didn't know she had a different one, but her name is Dagger. Hey, gotta go keep playing! I'll write a new reveiw later.

The Twist |
| Sephiroth from Cali says (13/Aug/2003): |
Ok... Final Fantasy 9 was a great game! It was not as good as FFVII, FFVIII, or FFX in my opinion. One aspect of the game that I truly hated was that all the characters looked like midgets! If the people in the game actually looked like people, this game would have been even greater!!! But please, dont let the midgety-look stop you from playing the game. It's a great game... good enough to be known as a Final Fantasy game.
