Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: Showcasing two installments of SquareSoft's wildly popular role-playing game (RPG) series, Final Fantasy Anthology features the U.S. debut of Final Fantasy V, and reintroduces one of the best RPGs of all time, Final Fantasy VI, originally released as Final Fantasy III on the Super Nintendo gaming system. Both games are straight Super Nintendo conversions, so their 2-D graphics and 16-bit sounds are admittedly subpar by PlayStation standards. However, SquareSoft has added brand-new, beautifully animated movies for both titles, and has given Final Fantasy VI the star treatment it deserves by adding a bonus mode where gamers can access loads of supplementary material, such as artwork and data files on the game's monsters and items. While Final Fantasy V is one of weaker entries in the series, Final Fantasy VI alone is totally worth the price of Final Fantasy Anthology. Endearingly melodramatic characters, a genuinely epic story line, and rock-solid gameplay make Final Fantasy VI just as absorbing today as it was when it was Final Fantasy III. --Joe Hon Pros: - Brand-new animated movies
- Reissues Final Fantasy VI, one of the best RPGs ever
- Lots of supplementary material for Final Fantasy VI
Cons: - Dated graphics and sounds may bother some gamers
- The previously unreleased Final Fantasy V may as well have stayed unreleased

Classic
Final Fantasy Anthology
What classic games. Both Final Fantasy 5 and Final Fantasy 6 are incredible games in the series. I enjoyed playing both of them from start to finish. I do, however, have a few caveats for people interested in buying this game.
-These are direct ports from the Super Nintendo, released in the states in 1991. The graphics are of the time; they aren't the 3D graphics of the PlayStation.
-There are some load-times, which are a little frustrating at times, due to the fact that these were not present in the Super Nintendo release of these games.
-This is a Final Fantasy game. It requires time, patience, and will not necessarily be a walk in the park. You will have to spend time exploring and leveling up. It is inevitable.
I was inspired to write this after reading several ignorant review stating that 'these graphics sux!!' and 'FFVII pwns!!'
These games are well worth the time and effort, as long as you remember you are playing games that are over 10 years old. That is all.

Gamers get two of the deepest, greatest RPGs ever created
Gamers get two of the deepest, greatest RPGs ever created for less than the price of a single new game - it's hard to argue with that sort of value. Whether you've waited five years for Final Fantasy V or just finished your first Final Fantasy, the Final Fantasy Anthology is sure to entertain. Jody Bissoon

Final Fantasy Anthology Review
If you are a fan of the Final Fantasy series then you really need this one. both games are intensely fun. if you want more original graphics with a few cg movies thrown in then this is for you. but i have a feeling they will be releasing both of these games for the DS if that suits you better.

Great Classic
One of the best final fantasy to hit the US its gripping from the very start. Its a game to remind one why final fantasy is such a hit.

Good old school fun
Good old school fun, if you can get past the graphics from the early 90's.
