NOTE: I did not play through chronicles

* Cceil hits somebody, gets 9999 damage for the first time
* Casting Holy
* Story actually making sense now
* Finding hidden passages that are actually hidden
* Golbez theme song
* Edge hitting guys four times = markout, every battle
* ASURA
* Hummingway city
* Dark Bahamut
* Music during Zeromus
* See Farva's archives (probably)

NOT markout moments:
* you spoony bard (yes this is final fantasy, but don't be a nerd)
* All the slowdown during battles
* "Gee, we don't know where to go next. How about we fly around for
awhile." = so 1991
* No screen spinning around when you go underground? WTF.
* Non-Mode 7 travel to moon doesn't seem nearly as cool now either, for
some reason
* Holy >>> White (see above), but Meteor < Meteo
* This is hardtype?? Delta Attack sisters, for one, seemed really easy

SNES FF >>>> FFs before and after

There aren't any.

Final Fantasy is total garbage.

No way.  They HAD to leave the "spoony bard" line in.

> * This is hardtype?? Delta Attack sisters, for one, seemed really easy

It was a cross between the easy-type and the hard-type, I think.  I played
the Chronicles version, which was the Hard-type, and it was WAY harder than
this one.  I think this one included all the features of the hard-type,
but was closer in difficulty to easy.

Like I said above, this was my favourite.  Although I'd say 8 was 2nd
fave, so I don't entirely agree with your statement.

Which one?  You do know there were three of them? (IV-VI)

V is the Magnum TA of FF games.

Um, the Hummingway city WAS in the original.  Also didn't they have
the programmers hideout in the dwarf castle?  That was like the best
new feature in the Chronicles edition...especially the 'smut
magazine', LOL.

Are you saying they left it in or took it out?  I hope they left it
in, some of the corny original translation really made these games
memorable...of course, then again I'm not apart of "generation-i",
when I started playing video games most of them only had 4 colors.

Yeah, things are MUCH better now that they're simplified and you're
always told EXACTLY where to go and what to do, pffft, that whole
"exploring" thing, what nonsense, that's like for smart people or
something.

horrible it makes the angels scream in terror as they violently rip
their heads off, their blood spraying into the faces of a thousand
sweet innocent horrified children, who will forever have the terrible
images burned into their tiny little minds'."

What? I know? Asura and Edge and the music I named were in the original
too. But all this stuff made me mark out

"find the arbitrary trigger" is not exploring nor complex nor
particularly intelligent, but whatever works...

Spoony bard was left in, much to my delight.
