Game Forum / Role Playing Games / Final Fantasy / March 2004Final Fantasy Chronologically Question
I've recently bought my first PS 2 system and I my first games I want is the entire FF series. Right now I have FF 5, 6 (Anthology), 7, 8, 10,& Tactics and I plan on getting origins (FF1 & 2), Chronicles (FF IV),& IX within the next few weeks. My question may sound strange, but I like playing the games chronologically, not necessarily in order like play FF 7 then FF 8. Now I know that some of the games were released in Japan differently than they were release here in the states so, chronologically, what is the order should they be played in? Also, is there a FF3 version for PS, I can't seem to find one? Thanks in Advance Chris > My question may sound strange, but I like playing the games > chronologically, not necessarily in order like play FF 7 then FF 8.

North American versions of games simply weren't released. The numbered releases are numbered in their original publication order. If I remember correctly, FF Tactics was released between 7 and 8, although I may be mistaken on that one. > Also, is there a FF3 version for PS, I can't seem to find one? The English version is in development, with no announced system or release date.

Nitpick, but _Tactics_ is not a *true* Final Fantasy game, just as _Final Fantasy Adventure_ and _Final Fantasy Legend_ (I, II, III) are not *true* Final Fantasy games. (The latter are actually American releases of Seiken Densetsu and SaGa [I, II, III], respectively.) However, if you overlook this nitpick, you also missed Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. That was released between 4 and 5, I believe. > My question may sound strange, but I like playing the games > chronologically, not necessarily in order like play FF 7 then FF 8. > Now I know that some of the games were released in Japan differently > than they were release here in the states so, chronologically, what > is the order should they be played in? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. They were numbered in order of their release. Remember, these are primarily *Japanese* games. The American releases are the exception in this case, not the rule. > Also, is there a FF3 version for PS, I can't seem to find one? Not that I know of, but I'm still wishing for a _Final Fantasy III/Dragon Quest IV_ combo in the near future. Of course, my ham dinner might sail around the room first.

I don't think that there is a chronology, > except for X and X-2... This is correct. (Well, I don't know enough about the "Final Fantasy Legend" series to say if those were sequels. I've never had a Game Boy.) I assume the chronology he's talking about is the order the games were created.

I may be wrong, but the games are definately fun to play. Chris > >I assume the chronology he's talking about is the order the games were > >created. [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > something > like that. FF1 was the first. FF4 was the second, released here as FF2. (SaGa 1 was released here as Final Fantasy Legend for the Gameboy in between.)

I heard that the first FF here was like FF4 in Japan, or > something like that. With J for Japan, and NA for North America, the Nintendo releases were FF1 J = FF1 NA (NES) FF2 J = not released FF3 J = not released FF4 J = FF2 NA (SNES) FF5 J = not released FF6 J = FF3 NA (SNES) After that, Sony started releasing them with the correct (Japanese) numbers. The numbers on the PlayStation editions are correct, although FF1 and FF2 were revamped with superior (to the original) graphics and sound. Blaine |
