[…] Thirteen years after Final Fantasy VII‘s release, I decided to play through the game again, and blog along the way (which will also be cross-posted over at The Idler). […]

The next Final Fantasy title I *will* buy is the latest Tactics incarnation for DSi. Good-bye productivity!

In reply to Daniel. I don't have strong endorsements for XII or XIII, although XII caught me at a bad time, and might have won me over if I'd given it more time. XIII is gorgeous, but I'm really debating whether it's worth investing more time. I really feel that I'm along for the ride at best. I'm not really doing anything.

In reply to Gavin Craig.

I’ve tried several times to buy XII but I never really get around to it–and I don’t own a PS3, so XIII is out of the question buy default :)

I’ll get XII eventually. Perhaps after I’m done with VII again!

Granted, since I don't play MMORPGs (online Role-Playing Games), there have only, by my count, been two Final Fantasy games since X, but XII and XIII seem conspicuously absent from your list, and I'd be curious as to why. (Don't read too much into that curiosity, though. I've played both of them, XIII more than XII, but haven't finished either of them, and while I own all the numbered Final Fantasy games except for XI and XIV, I've only completed I, IV, X, and X-2 so your bona fides are well beyond mine. I'd have III on that list too, but I'm stuck on the last boss. It's more than a little annoying.)
