Showcasing two installments of SquareSoft’s wildly well loved role-playing game (RPG) series, Final Fantasy Anthology features the U.S. debut of Final Fantasy V, and reintroduces one of the best RPGs of all time, Final Fantasy VI, originally released as Final Fantasy III on the Super Nintendo gaming system.
Both sports meeting are straight Super Nintendo conversions, so their 2-D graphics and 16-bit sounds are admittedly subpar by PlayStation standards. But, SquareSoft has added brand-new, perfectly animated movies for both titles, and has given Final Fantasy VI the star treatment it deserves by adding a bonus mode where gamers can access loads of supplementary material, such as artwork and data files on the game’s monsters and items.
While Final Fantasy V is one of weaker entries in the series, Final Fantasy VI alone is really worth the price of Final Fantasy Anthology. Attractively melodramatic characters, a genuinely epic tale line, and rock-solid gameplay make Final Fantasy VI just as absorbing today as it was when it was Final Fantasy III. –Joe Hon
Pros:
- Brand-new animated movies
- Reissues Final Fantasy VI, one of the best RPGs ever
- Lots of supplementary material for Final Fantasy VI
Cons:
- Dated graphics and sounds may bother some gamers
- The previously unreleased Final Fantasy V may as well have stayed unreleased

I’m a huge Final Fantasy fan, but FF5 and 6 are certainly no FF7. Kefka was pretty cool, but he is nowhere even close to Sephiroth, BEST VILLAIN EVER!!!!! FF5 had chocobos, and stuff like that, but there was no cloud, and they both had sad parts and stuff, but not anything nearly as sad as when AERIS DIES!!!!

I am unfamiliar with this relm of video game play so I believed that the animation would be as pictured on the inside cover and in the game preview. But the game itself was the flat choppy animation of the Atari game era, not the 3-D animation of today’s sports meeting, or of that in this game’s preview. I did not delight in it. I didn’t care for the bait and switch.

this is a splendid combination of sports meeting. i’d probaly have to say that final fantasy 6 is my alltime favorite, but final fantasy 5 is right up their two, 5 is definatly the toughest, and most irritating, thats why i like it, my favorites in order are 6,8,5,4,and 7, definatly the weakest
