Final Fantasy III

THE GOOD:

The first time this game has ever hit international shores.

Jumped from 2D to 3D

Job system

Same gameplay for traditional RPG fans

-Good old, nostalgic FF music

THE BAD:

The turn-based battles tend to wear out people's patience

Weak story compared to the other FF games which followed

Music becomes repetitive as it's recycled often

Wifi could have been implemented better

SUMMARY:
Fans of traditional RPGs rejoice! Unlike the rest of the Final Fantasy games which ensued, FFIII is rather unique. The game's main attraction is the job system with which you can change the jobs of the 4 characters according to your needs. However, what this does is that it creates rather bland characters who feel pretty much the same, as they can all use the same set of jobs. The fact that character backgrounds and relationships aren't explained...

THE GOOD:
Where do I begin? The old Final Fantasy games were nice, but now that the remakes are in, the just plain awesome. It may take you a little while for you to get used to them but, come on, it's only the DS. As you will find out later, this games graphics are only a part of the greatness. There are many new improvements to this game and the others, I will point out a few good points for this game.
*Glorious 3-D graphics
*Long story line
*New weapons
*New characters
*Jobs for characters, (Mage, Warrior, Black mage, ect...)

THE BAD:
Well, there are a few scratches with this one. Although they don't really have an effect on my love for the game, it may effect yours. Although the game is only a remake and it is on the DS, there are only a few bad points here:
*Music gets repetitive
*Guys look like girls
*Most of the monsters are the same
*Textures kinda look bad
*Can only save on the world map and not in...

THE GOOD:
Graphics are improved, and the textures used don't seem to blur, unlike in some other games. Characters and monsters are well detailed, the music is enjoyable and the side-quests are worth unlocking. Also, you can take a long time training Job levels and stats, and the game is not necessarily easy. Some battles require some thinking. Full-speed is guaranteed overall, though. Characters now have a background story and own personality, and are fully customisable when you unlock the Job system.

THE BAD:
Sound quality isn't full-quality, you can't really turn the camera around, only to zoom in and out. The opening movie is a little grainy, which could be blamed for the DS card only being able to use up to 128 Megabytes of data, and the lower resolution. Mognet is quite annoying since you need another player to unlock the side-quests with it.

SUMMARY:
This is, overall, an excellent remake of the NES installment. I spent over 60 hours...

THE GOOD:
Grpahics (although this is both a blessing and a curse - see below).
Music.
Touch-screen controls well.
Excellent, engaging and addictive gameplay.
Wi-fi opens up a few extra side-quests.

THE BAD:
Graphics limit on-screen action.
Music can get slightly repitive.
Touch screen controls are completely pointless.
Job system feels slightly shallow compared to other entries in the series.
No permanent saves during dungeons.
A bit on the short side.
Wi-fi could've been used in more intuitive ways.
NDS's unique features (e.g dual screen, microphone etc.) are barely used.
Minimal plot.

SUMMARY:
Graphics (4.2/5):

The game is in "virtual 3D" graphics. Meaning you can't manipulate the camera but the game still allows you to zoom in abd out of the action (outside of battles), for a better view of the gorgeous enviorments.

The art stlye is similar to that...

THE GOOD:
- Good graphics.
- Good Music.
- Good Gameplay.

THE BAD:
- Random battles and not repelling items.
- You can predict what will happen next.
- Can't save when needed.
- Wi-Fi is barely used.

SUMMARY:
This is game is great, but seriously, I expected more of it, it can be dissapointing sometimes.

Graphics (9/10):

The graphics are great, specially at the beginning, where the graphics are very realistic. The backgrounds are very nice and detailed. You can see clearly everything because the graphics are exelent. It is easy to see everything in battle clearly, because everything is well detailed, including the characters and the monsters.

Music (8.0/10):

The music is also good, it is not perfect but is nice enough to keep you awake. The music on the overworld suck, while in the battles, the music is awesome, It suits the background of the battle AND the battle. The...
