And I got one.
Sure, they didn't put in anything new, but taht can be just as good as bad. Playing the original Final Fantasy VI felt great...I just wish the music had been enhanced (especially for FFV). But let's take a more detailed look at it all.
Final Fantasy V
Square never released FFV here in the U.S. of A., and so the only way I've ever played it was on a translated ROM for my computer. A fairly difficult-to-beat game with lots of fun and surprises. This is where Final Fantasy Tactics' famous job-system got its start. This is where the Summoned Monsters and Guardian Forces came around for the first time. (Okay, so I laughed at them when I saw them in this game, but hey, they would've been awesome when the game was first released!) The challenge is medium to intense, the graphics are okay (enough to keep you entertained), and the story is fairly humorous, but definitely interesting. But music is where Final Fantasy V truly excels. The inclusion of the Final Fantasy Prelude (also known as the Crystal Song) and the Final Fantasy Anthem (played at the Elder Tree during the ending and during the credits of FF7 and FF8) bring the game to life and immerse you in the (for lack of a better word) WEIRD world of Final Fantasy V. Total rating on a scale of 1 to 10: 8.
Final Fantasy VI
Released in the USA as Final Fantasy III, the original was voted the best RPG of the year in its time. The remake does not disappoint. Would Final Fantasy Anthology sell without this one included? NO -- WAY. The level of improvement graphically and musically over FFV is amazing! The Anthology also includes opening and ending cinemas rendered with Square's best techniques, the same techniques that will be used for the Final Fantasy Movie. Overall rating on a scale of 1 to 10: 9.
In conclusion, this title is well worth the money to buy, but I do suggest you rent first to make sure you can put up with the out-of-date graphics, etc...
