Any of the earlier ones would probably be titled some like "Crystal Quest" or "Crystal Crusaders" since that was the basic idea of those games.
Final Fantasy 6 could be called the War of the Magi, after the historical reference in the game. FF VII could be something like the "Lifestream Protectors." FF VIII could be the "SeeD Wars." FF X could be "The Farplane Chronicles" FF X-2 could be "Girl Power: The Farplane Chronicles II" FF XI could be "Generic Fantasy MMORPG Type I" FF XII could be "The Sky Pirate Diaries" -------------------- If internal struggles were as enjoyable and glamorous as the self conflicted wars within video game characters, we would all be statues, reveling in perpetual self war. -Me Play me on Rock Band 2, GH-WT, or any other Xbox GH!

I remember once for a Gamefaqs thing I came up with subtitles for several FF games.
FF IV: Dark Side of the Moon FF V: Kingdoms and Crystals FF VI: Secret of the Espers FF X: Sin and the Summoner I had more, but I can't find the old list. -------------------- |

I like Farplane Chronicles for FFX and Dark Side of the Moon for FFIV.
For FFIX, something like "Return to the Fantasy" or something along the lines of returning. -------------------- Currently Playing : Final Fantasy V Most Recently Beat : Elder Scrolls: Skyrim Favorite Game : Final Fantasy X The newest CoNcast is up! Have a listen! |

I like "Dark Side of the Moon" for FFIV too.
For FFVII maybe "Jenova Impact" or "Jenova Effect"? -------------------- Thank you Link, but our Triforce is in another castle. |

Well, I'll just make these up as I go along...
FFI: Crystal Crusade FFII: Blades of Fynn FFIII: Crystal Crusade II FFIV: Songs of the Blue Night FFV: Crystal Crusade III FFVI: World of Ruin FFVII: Project JENOVA FFVIII: Squall of Time (Squall means storm, not referring to the char.) FFIX: The Iifa Tree (Never played IX, is that what the thing is called?) FFX: Dream of the Fayth -------------------- FFIVDS looks awesome, right? Especially the character scans. I mean, look at that CGI scan of Yang. You see it and you just think...badass. And then you look at his polka-dot pants, likely stolen from a Dr. Seuss book. And then you just...shiver. |

Has anyone actually looked at Squaresoft's previous naming system and wondered how that could be applied to the numbered series?
I'm not a fan of Advent Children, but the title itself is quite a feat. Not only is it marketable, but it's an abstract summary of the movie. It's not specifically referred to by anyone in the movie (avoiding the cheesy factor) and is a subtle hint at the challenge that the protagonists face. Then look at FFXI, which was released in Japan with the subtext of "Visions of Zilart", and the expansions Rise of the Zilart, Chains of Promathia, Treasures of Aht Urhgan and Wings of the Goddess. So what's with all these titles? War of the Magi? The Destruction of Sin? SeeD Wars? Where's the creativity? The spice? The marketability? In other news, Sin and the Summoner and Blade of Redemption are ten different shades of awesome. >.> -------------------- Visions of Peace - Four Generals, One Empire, and the Returners caught in the middle. |

Quote (Elessar @ 26th December 2007 16:31) So what's with all these titles? War of the Magi? The Destruction of Sin? SeeD Wars? Where's the creativity? The spice? The marketability? They sound like episodes of Doctor Who IMO. Bearing the above in mind I shall now use original thinking I: The Motion Picture II: The Wrath of Khan III: The Search for Spock IV: The One With The Whales. ...Wait. Actually, yeah, let's stick with the Doctor Who titles. FF X-2 could be Voyage of the Damned, for example. FF7 could be the Dalek's Master Plan. -------------------- "Only the dead have seen the end of their quotes being misattributed to Plato." -George Santayana "The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here..." -Abraham Lincoln, prior to the discovery of Irony. |

If Square was taken over by Chocobos, this would be the result:
FF 1- A Fight without a Chocobo FF 2-Look, a Chocobo! FF 3- The Black Chocobo Rises! FF 4-The Black Chocobo Rises! 2 FF 5- The Black Chocobo Gets Invaded FF 6- Techno Chocobo FF 7- Multi Colored Chocobo's! -------------------- You Can't Escape... Nowhere to run... Nowhere to hide... |
