Final Fantasy I
Well, it was around half past three last night when I finally turned the GBA off.
I’d found a town full of elves and wandered around the map not finding anything else of any importance.
That elf town is a rip-off when it comes to accomodation. One hundred gil for a room? It’s not any nicer than the thirty gil room in the starting town. Maybe it’s a tourist destination or something.
Anyway, I’m looking for the Marsh Cave now. May take me a while to find it, though I suspect it’s east of the elves town.
Oh, and I decided I really, really didn’t like any of the UK Micro colours, so I’ve ordered a Famicom one. I know it’ll end up costing me about ten quid more than a UK one and I won’t get it much sooner than the Uk release, anyway, but even ignoring the faceplate, the red colour of the body is much nicer than any of the UK colours.
I am weak.

Final Fantasy VII (PSP)

This is my holiday game, but I’ve started it early. Sue me. I’d forgotten how fantastic the opening section is – it’s been over ten years, after all – but it really throws you into the game and generates a real sense of urgency. It’s a shame that the game’s very much of its time

Played a lot of this over the weekend. I got in my boat and found a new village, defeated an evil elf, returned someone’s crystal eye, gave some powder to a dwarf so he could blow things up, that sort of thing. After having an easy time for the first five hours or so, I’ve

Went on a bit of an adventure last night, crossing the continent I was on, looking for anything I might have missed. After of lovely experience-giving battles, I found myself outside a cave. Dare I go in? What horrors lurked inside? No horrors, actually. Just some Fantasia-style brooms and a man who’d lost his crystal
Ten iPhone Games To Play In March 2010

A break from the usual list of the ten iPhone games I judge to be the best, here’s a list of ten games to play during this month. All will be great games, but they’ll be selected based on a mix of quality, novelty and relevance to the month’s events. Angry Birds Angry Birds is

No real excitement last night. I was just wandering around outside my current town, battling monsters for money and experience. (Mainly experience.) At one point Martha died, because I wasn’t paying attention to her hit points, but a quick trip back to town sorted that out. She’s fine now, no need to worry. I do

Didn’t play as much of this as I’d intended over the weekend, but I managed to do some wandering and found another town. The people there were scared of some horrible pirates who were hanging around, so I went and beat them up. (Violence, of course, solves everything.) The pirate captain was so impressed that

Sod the stupid goblins, time to play properly. Played for about twenty minutes over lunch, which consisted of wandering up to the first dungeon, beating the rubbish boss in two or three rounds, then getting congratulated for my great success. It’s nice to be thanked, but I didn’t even get a free stay at the

I’ve played a lot of Final Fantasy games, but the only one I’ve completed is the first. (Though I completed the Gameboy Advance version, rather than the NES original.) It was released last night on the iPhone and I bought it, despite the relatively steep £5.49 price, because I’m dying to play through it again.

I’m about thirty hours in now and it’s all I seem to be playing. Strange how things change, eh?

Wife and I are having Final Fantasy Tactics weekend. We’re quite the addicts right now.
