It's my favorite FF game! And the first one I played at that. The better news is this is the remastered version so maybe waiting longer got us something better. I wonder how big the full size is.. Not sure if I have room. The final question is, how is the interface. Are we going to get FF7 bad port or FF9 amazing port? And.... Looking at the screenshots, it looks like another FF7 case. So I guess FF9 was an outlier. Moshfosh Well-Known Member Jun 1, 2013 97 21 8 #4 Moshfosh, Mar 25, 2021 HOLY S**T INSTABOUGHT Son of Anarchy likes this.

This is sort of why I've been avoiding picking this up...Squeenix and their iOS aftersales service/update track record is...notorious to say the least, especially at $17 to $21. :/ Brightsiderus Well-Known Member Feb 1, 2017 2,236 540 113 #13 Brightsiderus, Mar 25, 2021 Btw, about 21$. It seems that FFVIII is on launch sale and in March it’s cost will rise to 21.

Never had this happen with an SE title, though, so I assume it’s a glitch that they will correct. But I was wondering how generalized the problem is, or whether someone had figured out a workaround And yes, agreen437, I’m on the latest (not beta) iOS. curtisrshideler Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Jul 30, 2011 3,097 25 48 Male Video Producer/Editor Texas http://twitter.com/curtneedsaride #17 curtisrshideler, Mar 25, 2021 Nice quiet drop. So weird, since we’ve all been waiting for it. Guess they didn’t want to make a big deal about this one? Anyway, this will be the best chance I have to get into this one. I’ve had it on PS1, PS3, PS4, Vita, and Switch, and still haven’t spent time with it. But put it quickly accessible in my pocket, and I’m bound to throw hours at it. I tried to start it this morning. Got to the classroom, but my kids woke up. Looks like I’ll have to start it again later. I didn’t have any issues on iPhone X, iOS 14.3. Dr.Traveler Well-Known Member Dec 10, 2008 355 0 16 #18 Dr.Traveler, Mar 25, 2021 Yeah, I just bought this on Switch during the last sale, but I never seem to have time to play the switch games I bought. Having this on the iPhone means I'll more likely play it. This was a quick and easy instant buy. And I know it's weird, but now I get to have my folder with a full screen of 9 entries of the series. That's a small thing that makes me super happy. Anyone else listening to the NoCKAT podcast? They're in FF8 this season, and now I'm going to catch up to them. Taeles Well-Known Member Patreon Silver Aug 5, 2011 1,253 37 48 #19 Taeles, Mar 25, 2021 And now I finally have every final fantasy 1 thru 9 on my ipad. Epic stuff. Now to start the campaign to bring 10 and 12 to my tablet lol.
