A gem lost in its own time, Final Fantasy V is a stellar RPG. 0
In the three years between the release of Final Fantasy IV and Final Fantasy VI (known as Final Fantasy II and III in the US), Squaresoft made the decision not to release Final Fantasy V to North America.

Luckily for me, my school's "bullys" were actually undercover nerds, allowing me to bribe them off with video game lendings. Hell, they even gave me some games back ( I still have a copy of one of them folk's Chrono Cross somewhere). Regardless, it's hard to convince folks (and by folks, I mean the nerdbullies in question) to give some games (and by some games, I mean the f...
