No FFV wasnt crap as you put it, I think it had a great battle and ability learning system as it was based on different classes and different abilites they contain, I thought that was a neat idea. The story isnt the best but it was good enough to make me want to finish it. As for the characters, well Butz was really cool but the rest didnt seem interesting to me, overall FFV is a good game, but not the best.

I think it will obviously be better on the GBA version. There will probably be new items, jobs, sidequests, places to go. Also, in my opinion the other remakes have been better then their originals so I'm going to assume that for Final Fantasy V it will be no different.

This game always seems to have a bad rep wherever I read about it. I just got it on a SNES disc for dreamcast and haven't seen much of it really to say for myself yet but just always wondered if it really is negatively viewed by the majority or I just happen to catch the negative ones.

I like the game. The story kind of reminded me of IV. The job system is on of the better way to gain char. skills that I have seen in the series. I know psiko said who cares about graphics on snes, but they are an important part of the game. Compared to IV they seemed dull and really took away from the game.

I agrre wit u. The other thing I liked bout it is the bosses were hard most of the time unless u leveled up good. I mean U can beat X-death at level 40 but u have 2 be at least level 50 2 beat Shinryu and Omega.

No still answered my Q(Do u guys think it will be better on the GBA version or do u think it will be worse than the SNES version?)

I liked how there were multiple endings and different worlds you could go to. It also had touching moments and the plot wasn't have bad, while it wasn't epic, it wasn't bad either. The only dislike I have for it was Character Developement.

Yeah, same here. I got up to some battle that I could never really win so I ended up giving up. I just didn't feel like completing the game after that. I haven't played it since then actually. Maybe I will play it again sometime but I just don't find it to be as good as the other FF games. It's not bad but it's not great either in my opinion. The job system was pretty cool because there was a wide variety. Besides that, it was plain for me.

Yeah the GBA wersion looks really great, but anyways I though the game was alright. The job system seemed really fun but overall nothing else about the game made me too excited about this game at all.

I don't think FFV was the worst at all. It wasn't the best by a long shot either. I think for the time it came out it was really advanced with the job system (which is why it was never released outside japan till now lol) but with that in mind it was awesome...after FF4 I must say it was pretty dull storyline but enjoyable for the amount of activity involved in leveling characters.

I thought that V was a good game..though definitely not better than either IV or VI though. I thought the graphics were no improvement at all over IV and the storyline wasn't as original either. The job system of course was awesome though It definitely seems to be one of the lesser talked about FFs for sure.

I only had one problem with FFV. And that was the jobs. I didn't like it at all. I'll always be a junction man.

With being released after FFIV it had a lot to live up to, then straight after it came one of the most popular in the series (FFVI) so it was kind of in a sticky situation, plus it didn't help that it didn't get released outside of Japan for a long time.

I think most people don't give it a chance, I guess it is the type of game where you have to unlock all the costumes for it to get interesting but I think it is highly underrated for how good of a game it is. Quite a shame imo.
