Final Fantasy VI
SNES | PS1 | GBA

Final Fantasy VI is the sixth installment in the Final Fantasy series, first released in 1994 on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was directed by Yoshinori Kitase and Hiroyuki Itō, who took over from series creator and producer Hironobu Sakaguchi, director of the five previous installments of the franchise. Long-time series contributor Nobuo Uematsu composed the musical score, while Yoshitaka Amano contributed to the image design. Final Fantasy VI was the third installment in the Final Fantasy series to be released in North America (after the original Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy IV). As a result, it was first released in North America as Final Fantasy III to maintain naming continuity. Due to various content guidelines imposed by Nintendo of America at the time, several other changes were made to the original North American version including restrictions against nudity and profanity. The game's story focuses on a conflict between the Empire, a dictatorship slowly conquering the world, and the Returners, a rebel faction opposed to them. The Empire has acquired its great army through experiments with Espers, magical demi-gods that were thought to be myths. The Returners begin to seek magical power to fight the Empire on equal terms, and an amnesiac former imperial soldier, Terra Branford, eventually proves key to both sides for understanding magic and Espers. Final Fantasy VI features fourteen playable characters, the largest cast of any game in the Final Fantasy series to date, excluding spin-off titles. The game is set in a fantasy steampunk-styled world, at a technological level roughly corresponding to Earth during the Second Industrial Revolution. It is also the last title in the series to be released for the Super Nintendo console and the last title to be renamed. Final Fantasy VI was ported to the PlayStation and released in Japan in 1999, both individually and as part of the Final Fantasy Collection. In North America, this port is available as part of the Final Fantasy Anthology. In 2002, the PlayStation port was released individually in Europe and Australia. A new port of the game was released on the Game Boy Advance as Final Fantasy VI Advance on November 30th, 2006 in Japan and February 5th in North America. -- Final Fantasy Wiki

i wouldnt mind a PSN port of this game

[Dexel]

Dammit, it's so tempting to try this game out from all I've heard about it. However, lacking fiancial aid, I cannot.

Wouldn't mind a PSP remake, but just the one on the PS is good for me - if I had no option, I'd get the GBA version, but perferrably not.

Definitely one of my favorite Final Fantasy titles. I've played it on both the SNES and the GBA, and I've got to say, both times I found the game incredibly enjoyable. With the huge cast of characters, the beautiful spritework and animations, and a very compelling story- made even more so by Kefka- this game is quite possibly, to me, the epitome of RPG's.

edit: Also, Setzer looks like Sephiroth in that pic. I was like whaaaat?

[Roxas9001]

I want to know who killed Kefka, was it the party or did they soften him up for Alexander to come out and judge him? Is the judging part even canon? thanks. I read it somewhere a while back I just forgot.

[Nostalgia]

It definitely beats out the first 5 (possibly excluding 4, since I never played it). I was impressed by their ability to maintain character development despite there being so many of them in the party.

So I just got the GBA version of this game (since I've been dying to try it). So far it's pretty good, I'm at the part with the Moogles and I believe the guy's name is Locke...? Anyway, it's at the beginning, right after Terra/Tina faints.

[madammina]

I have the GBA version... and in Cyan's Nightmare.

Unfortunately, I forgot to switch out Relm when I entered. So far she's holding her own, but still...
