My Favorite Final Fantasy Moment
The Final Fantasy series is a plethora of interesting moments and cinematics. I have seen characters fall in love. I have seen characters rival one another. I have seen deaths of characters. I have seen the menacing bad guys and their wicked awesome "entrance" into the games, and also their final sequences. I have seen great endings. I have seen poor endings. I have seen foolish mistakes. I have also seen grammatical errors, that just work.
However my favorite scene/moment ever in Final Fantasy is none of those, and IMO tops.
This would be a screenshot of the battle between Legendary Holy Summon, Alexander, and the King of Dragons, Bahamut, from Final Fantasy IX, Disc 3.
In this FMV scene, Bahamut is summoned to destroy the kingdom of Alexandria. However, Garnet and Eiko summon Alexander to stop Bahamut's attack on the kingdom.
Bahamut uses his Mega Flare attack on Alexander, but fails. Alexander destroys Bahamut with its Holy Judgment.
Because this is my fave scene ever, I usually play the game just to see this scene (although I also have it on DVD as well), but gives me another good reason to play the game.
If you ever wish to see a video of it online, just use the keywords "Final Fantasy IX Alexander".
