This is still the best Final Fantasy Game ever made. If you've never played it, you don't know what an RPG really is.

For those who are Final Fantasy fans this is the RPG, yes its old graphics with a little improvement. This game overall is fun and excellent!

Whether you've played Final Fantasy VI on the NES, PS1, or just barely found this game for the GBA SP, there's no denying the game's compelling story and memorable music. You'll laugh and cry and want nothing more than to defeat the villain Kefka most FF fans recognize as the second most hated (and loved) villain of the entire series, just below Sephiroth from FFVII. This is one of my favorite FF games of all time. Try it - you'll get addicted.

This game really does take an old-time player back. Each character in FFVI has their own personality, and the storyline is just as good.
There are, however, some details.
1) The first time you use Sabin's Blitz in the game. The instructions are very unclear, and because I hadn't played it in a while, I really did not know what to do. A simple: <--, -->, <--, A would have sufficed and been more efficient. Also, and I know this was probably on the original SNES version of the game instead of Down, Down left, Left for the Aura move, it would have been a lot more efficient to mention IN GAME that it was really Down, Down, Left and then A.
2) The Celes scene should not have been cut out. I got this game because I thought it would be in good faith with the original. There was no reason to cut out that scene with her and the soldier. I did not want to buy an abridged or censored copy of a Classic. By the same token, they had no problem leaving the scene with Cyan and his family. So I'm not really sure what is going here, but that did disappoint me as an old-time player, and fan.
3) The music sounds very odd on this system, but it could just be the system itself and how it translates sound.
These are my only observations so far. The Celes part is kind of disappointing, and FF purists should consider this before spending money on owning this product. But the over all story is the same, and some elements of the game are in fact easier to access. So overall rating 4/5.

From a nostalgia perspective, FF VI may only appeal to an older group of foks who have played this game when they were younger on more primitive gaming platforms. However, for people like myself, some be turned off.
I offer up this analogy: If your first car was an old beat up Chevy Nova that you have a lot of fond memories in, then taking a ride in that car for old times sake can bring back those great memories. However, if you delayed getting your license until later in life and your first car was a new BMW, taking a drive in a beat up Nova now is going to feel pretty lame. If your first experiences in RPGs include Knights of the Old Republic, Final Fantasy X & XII, and Elder Scrolls III & IV, then FF VI is going to be that Chevy Nova.
I tried to like this game, but I am also playing it on a DS Lite, thereby further tarnishing my opinion of the game. The graphics and sound are basically limited. The story is incredibly overrated and just didn't grip me in the least. To boot the battle system just pales in comparison to the aforementioned RPGs.
Sorry, I don't want to offend anyone, this is just a humble opinion from someone who has only experienced RPGs in the last three years, so please take that into consideration.
