Will there be the Final Fantasy????

 Hello fellow gamers, is was only a matter of time until i started talking about Final Fantasy.  The Final Fantasy series has been around for many years.  They have gone from the original Final fantasy

released in 1990 in America



To the newest installment Final Fantasy XIII-2 released in 2012. 


This series has been going on for almost a quarter of a century.  This game series is truly amazing and I think that the ones that have been made will be go down as revolutionary and legendary games.  My question is how long will this continue? How many more Final Fantasies will there be.  Is there ever going to be a Final Fantasy to the Final Fantasy Series. 

I have loved the Final Fantasy Series since I first played Final Fantasy VII.  I love the Final Fantasy series because it allows me to escape to a world that I do not have to imagine.  It is all right there on the screen.  I guess you can say for almost every game... But, not in the way that Final Fantasy does it.  I love the entirely different stories that each Final fantasy has.  I love how each Final Fantasy (For the most part) has its own world that you can explore and enjoy.  I love the signature characters that have become symbols of the Final Fantasy Series.  These can include Cloud, Zidane, Squall, Tidus, I could go on all day about all of the characters that are in the Final Fantasy series.  There is also the incredible journey that each party of characters go on in each game.  During the journey the characters find love, find their courage, and/or find a group of friends that they will have forever. 

However, not everyone likes Final Fantasy.  I honestly see why you cannot like the great journey of Final Fantasy. I have heard some weak arguments for not liking Final Fantasy.  First, I have a friend that chose to not like Final Fantasy just because they are all called Final Fantasy.  Now I do not know about any of you but I do not care about the title of a game.  In my opinion that is like judging a book by its cover.  You are just looking at the outside of the box and do not bother opening just because you do not like the title.  I also have another friend that said that they will not play Final Fantasy because they do not like playing turn-based strategy (which is what Final Fantasy is) but he will play the pokemon games.................................I don't know. 

Anyway, those are just some things about Final Fantasy, that I love and some things that I just don't quite get about people who do not play the games.  But back to the original question: Will there be a Final Fantasy?  I think that there will be, I do not know when, but I think that there will be a Final Fantasy.  I really hope that I do not see the end in my lifetime.  However, I believe that there will be a once and for all Final Fantasy. 

Anywho, I just thought that I should share some of my opinions and questions will my fellow gamers.  If the Final Fantasy series has an end then no matter what the games that are here will be here forever and they will have always made their mark in gaming history.  I just hope that there is no end to the Final Fantasy series in the near furture.

A personal note of video games

This is going to be a different sort of blog post, I will be talking about Video games like always, however, I will be talking about my own personal experiences with video games.  I am going to talk about not just class video games but my history with video games.  I will all be explained later in the post if you have no idea what the hell I am talking about.  So let us get started.
I started playing video games when I was a younger version of myself.  My first game that I every played was Rugrats the Search for Reptar for the PlayStation and back then I thought that it was the best thing ever, and even in present day when I know play that game I think that it is still an awesome game to play.  I was interested in this particular game because as a child I would always watch Rugrats and I assume that most of you all have seen and watched Rugrats.  Anyway that was the first game that I ever played.  Then I started to accumulate that massive collection of games that I now own.  They consisted of PlayStation and PlayStation 2 games as well as Game cube and Wii games.  Now I play my 360 and am creating a collection of games that just keeps growing.  My computer gaming experience did not take off until I was in high school. This is mainly because I believed that the game Age of Empires was terrifying.  Well anyway, the thing that I am trying to get at is how much video games are a part of my life and how much that make me who I am today.  I do not remember a time that video games were important to me.  Ever since I started playing Rugrats I was hooked.  I like the escape that they provide, they make you feel as if you are that character in the game, going on their adventures.  Video games are a part of me and I do not know what I would do if I had to give them up or if they were gone from my life.  So I just thought that I would share this with you all because I think that they have molded me into the person I am today.  Without video games who knows what kind of person I would be or any of us would be...
Well on that personal note I believe that we have come to the end of another blog written by none other than Butter Mcspanky Pants! Have a great week!
