It appears the best Final Fantasy (to start with) that I'll be getting my boss to play this weekend is going to be Final Fantasy 4. If you doesn't get in with the retro style, then I'll suggest Final Fantasy 10. And if he doesn't like that Retro look either, then he's SOOL. Or maybe I am for wanting him to start playing the games. Not sure. Congratz to FF4!
