Video Game Review – “Final Fantasy II Pixel Remaster”
The next review of the Pixel Remasters from the Final Fantasy franchise is here, and the game is much better than I remembered.
Video Game Review – “Final Fantasy IV Pixel Remaster”
I’m slowly working through the Pixel Remaster editions of the first six Final Fantasy games, and I’m letting my wife pick the order. (She’s doing so at random, as she’s not a gamer. It just moves me past decision paralysis.) Below is my review of number IV, which I thought was number II growing up. The actual Final Fantasy II will be the topic of the next review.

My favourite video game franchise has had numerous novel adaptations in the Japanese language, including a single book with adaptations of Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy II, and Final Fantasy III released to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the franchise in 2012.
