An excellent port with all the right upgrades for new and old fans of FF9 or the entire franchise to pick up.

If you like FInal Fantasy or oldschool JRPG's in general, you really can't go wrong here.

Cons (Such as they are): Character sprites and numerous models have been updated, but there is not (as of the time of this writing) any high definition backgrounds. That said, this should prove to be no issue at all if you already love the game.

Additionally, if you want to use the cheats built into this version of FF9, you have to use the Function keys to toggle them. As of this writing, the port developers haven't made that overly clear or self explanatory and it can be a bit unobvious if you don't know what to push to toggle them and don't know exactly what you're looking for to tell if they're on or off.

Pros: Excellent PC port with some graphical and gameplay updates from the original version. Squaresoft was at the top of their game in the FF7/FF8/FF9 years, and FF9 is a worthy culmination of that era with a memorable cast of characters, an engaging and often heartwarming storyline as well as a great deal of potential challenge, secrets and an expansion on one of the most addictive collectible card based mini games I've ever encountered in an RPG.

It could be better, but its so terribly difficult to put pepper jack on a video game.

Its pretty dang great. Play it and rejoice.
