vii viii and ix are all available for digital purchase on the playstation store so you can easily relive those memories i have vii and ix never liked viii lol
the pc version of vii was bad about changing disks your looking for what area oh insert disk 3 seconds later insert disk 2 lol
"Bro, where'd you put disc 3? No it's not in the stupid playstation, I just took disc 2 out! Yes I'm freaking sure you idiot! No it's not in the stupid case, of course I looked. You probably lost it you dummy! What were you playing last? Because maybe you put it in the wrong case! Oh shit wait, it's where disc 2 was. Sorry! You're still an idiot though!"
Ah, childhood
When in doubt, assume sarcasm
A true paladin... will sheathe his sword.
IU wasn't that bad... minus the main character's whining in the beginning - but it was still a fun game! Especially the battle system towards the end with all the skills o.o
Also, speaking of old.... *Clings to the Atari, NES and Apple IIe* :|
Man, when I first made this thread, I just wanted to share a thought which had me shouting as though I'd uncovered a conspiracy. I didn't intend to make everyone feel old.
We aren't old. I'm 23, and I've played 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, and now 14.
Those were the glory days, when to kill some big bastard who could level the planet just required 4 people out to save the world.
Now? There's millions of us. And yet, I wouldn't have it any other way.
Having those memories and systems don't make you old. Falling behind or giving up does.
The fact you're reading these words means you're not old.
In any case, as I've seen posted somewhere on the internet: I will happily accept old age now.
Can you imagine: A retirement home which has frequent LAN parties?
I recall Monkey Island II on the Amiga. That was 11 discs, and you had to swap them constantly. Ahh, the memories.
Hey Kids...
I know we picked on Final Fantasy for shipping on 4 CD's(VII/VIII,IX) or 3 DVD's (FFXIII)
But Phantasmagoria shipped on 7 CD's, Wing Commander 3 shipped on 4 or so (Wing Commander 4 shipped on 6)
But if you want to talk about floppies. "Beneath a Steel Sky" (Amiga) shipped on 15 720KB disks.
And if you want to go to Japan, some PC98 ADV's were had even more.
(That's 17 1.44MB 3.5" floppies)
