Imagine you are working at Square-Enix in the publicity department. One of your jobs is to create an interesting catch-phrase or slogan for an FF Game. (It can be any one from 1-12, or even a spin-off like Before Crisis). What would it be? Post your ideas here. I've got one for FF X-2: "The only game with an algebraic title!" Your catch-phrase can be serious, humourous or anything in between.

i'm willng to bet that some people would use "Buy this and you'll regret it" for X-2, however, i prefer

"Skimpy and mathmatically challenging, a great combination"

or possibly

"this has THE longest dungeon, THE most retarded secondary characters and THE EASIEST final bosses, ever found in a Final Fantasy game"

for X-2

as for the others i would use

"A delight for fans of grown up crybabies, watch the main character fight back the tears as he watches Auron beat up everything in his path while he cant get past the sandwich on his plate"

for X and for IX

"Play this game to see gender confuse badies, chronically obese queens and a demontration on how to be a hairdresser"

(btw, these are my three favourite FF's)

FFXI: A Generic MMORPG with Final Fantasy stamped on the label. You would enjoy World of Warcraft or EverQuest more than this.

Those are some excellent catch-phrases there Ecootoo. Very clever and funny.

Thanks!
The odd thing, actually, is that I had just been thinking of such catch-phrases for FF games the other day (yes, I do that sort of thing when I'm idle)
Oh, and I feel the need to add...

Final Fantasy
"Please, please, please buy this game. Please."

Final Fantasy II
"Yes, we realise the title is an oxymoron. That's why we're not releasing it in English speaking countries, where it will be even more obvious."

Final Fantasy III
"Job system, eh? We'll give it a go."

Final Fantasy IV
"Guess what! We have PLOT-TWISTS! Eat that, Dragon Quest!"
also
"Haha, Americans are dumb. Let's change the number to II and lower the difficulty to confuse them!"

Final Fantasy V
"Because cross-dressing pirates are where it's at."

Final Fantasy VI
"Well, it's going to be your Final Fantasy, Nintendo."

Final Fantasy VII
"Look! It's 3D! What's that? Plot-holes? No, no - 3D! Eat that, Dragon Quest!"
also
"So, we've changed the numbering system back. Haha. Stupid Americans."

Final Fantasy VIII
"Isn't love grand? Here's a romantic story...with witches! We were going to have vampires too, but Joss Whedon threatened to sue."

Final Fantasy IX
"Shit, FF8 wasn't as successful as we hoped - it must have something to do with the characters! They weren't super-deformed enough! I know - let's give the main character a TAIL!"

Final Fantasy X
"OK, so we finally did the love story thing well. And look - we finally acknowledged that Japan has a history as well!"

Final Fantasy X-2
"Well, the designers were playing around with the Yuna model in Maya, and after they finished posting all the hentai to the net, we figured we'd use the tame stuff to make a game. By the way, all fans of FF10 because of the storyline: fuck you."

Final Fantasy XI
"Click attack. Wait. Click Magic. Wait. Sit down.

Wait."

Europe never got FFT, so when they played FFTA they were probably expecting the �deep, complex story� they had heard so much about.

�lol.

Sure, i'd like to play FFT some day, but FFTA did anything but piss me off! In fact, it was playing an emulated copy of FFTA that convinced me to buy a GBA.

I can't help but giggle at the catchphrase they DID give FFX-2 (Last time, she saved the world. This time, it's personal.

FFIX: CHIBI-MONKEYBOY! KEKEKEKEKEKEKE.

FFX: Listen to his story... he'll cry if you don't.
