Final Fantasy
I've been a long-time fan of the series, and so I was ecstatic to find out they would be releasing the original six in a pixel remaster package on Steam. This game was a short but sweet adventure that has stood the test of time; the remastered soundtrack was amazing, as were the remastered pixel graphics. I'm excited to progress through the series and watch it evolve before my very eyes!
