I've been a huge FF fan for a long time, having played and completed all games available in English. Some, multiple times. It's just a series that never gets old, and I'm seriously looking forward to FFXII.
As for the music, you can download The Black Mages' second album here. It's a progressive rock/metal band that plays covers of classic FF tracks, Nobuo Uematsu (Composer of most FF songs) being the keyboardist. I also have their first album, but I don't believe it's available to download anywhere. That site, if you look on the left, also has the soundtracks to a few of the games. I haven't had time to download them all.

February 2007 is too much a wait. I'll probably start seeing a dip in my college performance around that time.
And I appreciate that link Rick, and even though I'll still probably download it I was looking for fresh things in music rather than Final Fantasy, as I've listened to the OST's way too much.

The only bad FF IMO is X-2. Pretty ghey

Yeah, I know, I just thought it would be worth posting. Some of the tracks are real killers.

Haha, I seen the "Wanker." post Rick :wink:
I agree with him, it felt like a Disney game, for 10 year old girls.

Pffft. I still liked it. I liked Kingdom Hearts as well.

Hypocritically, so did I.

The official English site for FFXII is up http://www.finalfantasyxii.com/
And Square, being as kind as they are, have said that FFXIII is already 80% complete. Of course, we won't be seeing that until 2017.

I can't wait for this. I don't think I've properly enjoyed a new game since FFX which was nothing compared to when I first played FFVIII or The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
*makes mental note to start Zelda thread*
It doesn't help that that Square are shitting out all these shitty sub games like Dirge of Cerberus and FFX-2 and passing them off as true FF games.

never got into it. i bought kingdom hearts 2, same time as my mate lent me final fantasy seven, eight and nine.... i played kingdom hearts till i competed it, played ff7 till you get to the golden saucer, then i got bored and bought an x-box.
