1. Final Fantasy IX
Surprised?
Final Fantasy IX was the ‘final’ game, in the series, to be released on the PSone, and what a swan song it was. After the huge impact of VII and the dividing opinions of VIII, many wondered if IX could live up to the Final Fantasy hype train; that would soon be changing tracks and heading onto the PlayStation 2. Operation Rainfall believes it certainly did, in so many ways. IX is known as the ‘pure’ Final Fantasy game of the PSone, featuring whimsical lands, castles and princesses, dragons, knights and a sprightly hero — it made a refreshing change to the previous games and the angst-y protagonists that came with them.
Without a doubt, Final Fantasy IX is worthy of our No 1 spot.
