This thread has been linked to the game 'Final Fantasy VII'.
Thinking of picking up a cheap PS2 and a copy of a Final Fantasy game.
Where would you recommend I get a secondhand PS2 from (preferably a place that gives a few months guarantee)?
Which final Fantasy should I start with?
But also I need to know about the presentation of the games as at the moment cacky japanese music really doesn't appeal to me. There's not to much singing in them is there? And there aren't to many squeaky characters that I can't immediately push off a cliff.... hopefully?
What's good and what sucks?

At first. Then it just got boring.
Was it too tough for widdle Scripty?
X was more linear than a 1 to 2 dot-to-dot and poo as well. The whole temple puzzle things just put me way off.
FF8 was a decent game.
Just not as good as FFVII, IX or X.

Everyone, stop being so anti-FF8.
The introduction of the cards games and the fighting summons before you own them idea weren't all that bad.
I was completely lost by the junctioning though.
The whole Laguna part was tremendous as was the secrets i.e going to the hidden base thing

Buy one.
If you want a 'top-downish' game, get Disgaea.

FF6 is best played on an emulator, there are some really tough parts that'll really annoy you when you have to go back an hour to the last save point.
FFs 1&2 you might as well pick up on your GBA as part of the Dawn of Souls package which is by all means a great game.
And I mean, on GBA :-D
If you buy 8 it'll most likely put you off playing any others.
Lakers, when's the NTSC release of XII?

No idea, never played those on the SNES. For me though the choice between playing FF7 and FF6 is like asking me if I want to play Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance or Golden Axe, in both cases there's a huge jump in terms of gameplay if you play the more recent versions.
are the old school ones more like ogre battle/other top-downish RPGs on the SNES?
