The 'awesomeness' of the Final Fantasies can barely be captured in just a short review, but I will do my part and take a shot at it. Square's Final Fantasy was never meant as a series, but just a collection of games. There is an extraordinary amount of detail and time put into each and every other game, making each one unique, with unique characters, unique spells and creatures, castles, plot, and themes. When the first few, the "old-school" ones came out on Gameboy and Super Nintendo everyone was instantly captivated by them. Everyone in the gaming world found a new way to consume all of their time.
Although, all of them were incredible, some were however more incredible than others. In the first few, you did not have everything pointed out to you as you would in Final Fantasy IX. As a result the first few were challenging and more intriguing, consuming tons of our time and energy trying to get everything we could out of the game, having more fun that we ever thought we could before. Now, though Final Fantasy IX had a bunch of its cool little intricacies that made it unique, while taking aspects of the first few games to try to make the game more 'comfortable' for Final Fantasy gamers. However, it was simply way too polished, too easy, and too modern to be considered as one of the better Final Fantasy games.
