I think for after the Anniversary FFII remake on PSP they were given names. Before that they might have been nameless... maybe? :(

Actually i read that the one they mentioned was a "japanese only" one and the one i played was the second installment in NA and the 4th in the series...however i guess to save on costs they decided to give the NA Final Fantasy 2 the same boxart as the japanese one.

WINDWAKER1

Its very similar to the Dragonball Z fighting games, but it has FF characters

I imported it day 1, its fun for a while, but nothing special. Its SE's first Fighting game, so of course its not as complex as street fighter, I guess I was just disappointed.

EDIT: Why aren't Shantoto and Gabranth on that list? They're not really secret characters... you just can't unlock them with pp like the rest of the villians

If it was on the PS3 I have a feeling it would be GOTY material. The PSP just doesnt cut it for this game, UMD size limitations really hurt the presentation a bit.

Who knows. Maybe Square Enix could have given Smash a run for its money. Better yet maybe they could have broken into the fighting scene with the likes SNK, Capcom, Aksys, Namco, Sega ect.

I personally told you all of my complaints towards the game and your mega-hyping the game regardless :P

I doubt A FEW negative words about this game will affect your excitement at this point ;)

FF4's villain is named Golbez, not Garland.

Cool thread though, needs more information than just characters, but I know you are still working on it.

Very nice thread. No mention of FF11-12's character? xD Anyways having played the game, it was fun but I can't say it lasted me too long since it got rather dull facing computers. 8/10 IMO.

Yeah, that was the stupid auto spell thing. It noticed I spelled "Garland" before and stuck the work in there for Golbez. I'll polish up the thread as time goes on. For now, consider this the 'beta'. :wink:

Cloud is definitely my favorite thus far. I have taken out guys within the first 10 seconds of the match with him.

I like Cecil a tad more but Cloud is just awesome.:) I didn't really like Terra much through. I going to now play the onion knight.
