Ratings and reviews

This game is very special to me as it's my favorite Final Fantasy of all the ones I've played. So, why the 3 stars instead of 5? Because Square is both too old & young at the same time, forcing touch controls only with zero controller support. Just give us that option, Square! You wouldn't do it for the old versions on here, so why can't you do so here at least?! Edit: 1 star now. It's been 2 years. Just implement controller support, you empty-headed cheapskates. Edit 2: Controller at long last.

Pretty good overall. I have not experienced the load time or stability issues that other players report. When you select a Cure spell, for example, from your list of spells in battle, it does not show you a screen that lists the health of your party members. You have to know who needs heals in battle before selecting to heal party members. Also, and this may be my imagination, was Yang nerfed in to obscurity? I remember Kick being so much better than it is in this version.

Faithful remake of the original... at least the last version I played (FF 2 on the SNES). I did find it much easier to level up, so by the end I was a lot stronger than I ever was when I played it on the SNES. Plus I got two rare drops, which I never got on the SNES relatively quickly. I also enjoyed thr music but was also wishing for the original score. If you have 20-30 hours to kill, and you like old school FF, this is hard to beat
