As a whole, I say no. It's well worth it's reputation as one of the longest running series in all of gaming, being way back there along with Mario, Zelda, Metroid and such. And I DO think the 2D titles deserve every amount of respect they get. But then you get to FFVII, and everything goes downhill. Look, I can understand first 3D game nostalgia. The first time you see your favorite series in 3D is one of the most epic moments you'll ever have, but geez, FFVII gets my vote for most overrated game of all time.

After I finished playing X, I quickly got VII, expecting to experience an adventure that was the god of all video games: A perfected battle system with no flaws, perfect characters that weren't shallow at all, the most moving and emotional story line the world had ever seen, and the most timeless of all games. Because really, that's what people praise it as today. But no, it can't live up to it, and sadly, it brings the whole FF series with it. As long as the VII hype is alive, there will always be a part of me that thinks the series is overrated.

Yes, my favorite is X. I know people will kill me for saying so, but it's the truth. It was the very first Final Fantasy I ever played, and I was amazed by the deep characters, story line, and music. The fact that the turn based battle system was so good made it even better. It hooked me on FF in general you could say, but after hearing so much about FFVII and finally playing it, I just found it too overrated and nostalgia hyped. I then played VI and found out that it really WAS as good as people said it was. Classic 2D RPG right there.

Hey everyone. Was looking for some good old GB games and stumbled across this awesome place.

Before you start typing the ridiculously long name, please, call me Ver or Vergo, it's a lot easier. I'm not a newbie to forums in general at all, so you won't be having any spam or flaming problems from me. Like I said, I'm a huge fan of GB classics like Mario Land 1 and 2, Link's Awakening, and Metroid II, so I'm really looking forward to re-experiencing those.

Hope I'll have a great time here.
