This is simply one of the best in the Final Fantasy series.
Final Fantasy IX is an excellent Final Fantasy game.You take the role of a thief named Zidane who belongs to a thieves group.You also meet Steiner, a guard of Princess Garnet,of the city of Alexandria. You travel around a new world as these characters(plus more).
Battle System: 4 out of 5 stars
The battle system of FFIX is similar to FFVIII. You have a bar by your characters' name that fills up.As soon as it fills you can attack your enemy.Other than that the battle system is very straight forward.You can use items(potions),Black magic,White Magic.The battle system here works well and gives you planning time since your meter fills.But don't think the battles aren't fast paced,because they move fast keeping you thinking.Good battle system.
Graphics: 5 out of 5 stars(for PSX graphics)
The graphics look very good for a PSX game.Not really sure how to say it except that it looks "more real".
Storyline: 4.5 out of 5 stars
For those of you that never played a Final Fantasy game before you're in for a treat. I'm not going to spoil it but the cast goes through some stuff in order to help Princess Garnet. For those of you who have played Final Fantasy games know how well the storylines are thought out.The story lost a half star due to the fact that the story doesn't pick up til the end of Disc 2(4 discs!).
Closing Statements:
One of the best games ever.You must play it. This game also has an excellent replay value.You just can't put this game down.Pick it up and enjoy.
