Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls
Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls
Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls, publié le 29 juillet 2004, est une compilation des deux premiers jeux de la série Final Fantasy. Développé par la Square Enix Product Development Division 7 et édité par Nintendo et Square Enix, ce jeu de rôle est disponible sur Game Boy Advance et Wii U. Sur le plan graphique, il s'apparente aux remakes améliorés précédemment publiés pour la WonderSwan Color.
Concernant l'accueil du titre, la presse et les joueurs ont partagé leurs impressions. Le Detroit Free Press a ainsi relevé que le gameplay demeure simple, évoquant la découverte de villes en détresse et le combat contre des monstres lors de rencontres aléatoires. De son côté, N-Insanity a salué la qualité visuelle et sonore des deux jeux, tout en mentionnant des extras de gameplay et des changements de combat. Des joueurs s'étant exprimés sur Metacritic ont rappelé que le rythme n'est pas celui d'un RPG d'action moderne mais que l'expérience reste très réussie et classique, l'un d'eux déclarant même que c'est son JRPG favori. Le score agrégé du jeu est de 60,26.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Game-play is also simple: Come across a distressed town, get the lowdown from the townspeople and save the day by fighting monsters in random encounters and beat the area's boss. It's still fun, even after all these years. »
« Besides the game play extras and combat changes, both games thrive visually and the music sounds fantastic. »
« It's refreshing to look back on the genesis of the world's most popular RPG. »

« I mean, you know what you're in for. It's definitely not as fast as a modern action RPG, but it's really good at what it does. It became a classic for a reason. The story might seem a little classic now, but remember that it was quite new at the time. »
« Meu JRPG favorito. »
« Final Fantasy 1 & 2 for the GBA is amazing and the game I put most of my time on was FF2. The first time I've beaten FF2 was magical and I was shocked that there is a extra story mode and some small features that is only on the GBA version. I kinda understand on why people hate FF2 but for me, it was the best FF game of all time. »
« The graphics may be a little quaint by today's standards but these games are stone cold classics of the genre and are still hugely enteratining. Add the ability to save at any point and you have an old school RPG that's perfect for portable gaming. »
« I am afraid of playing retro RPG game because there is no hint to show where to go next place . FF1 is actually I talking about . totally waste of my time . I don't even what to level up , and the money had been 999 999 . the Earthgift Shrine unlock screen is very confuse . I had try try try try try .. and failed , wrong secret way »
« FF1 and 2 Dawn Souls are along with the PSP port, the best ways to play these titles HANDS DOWN. They introduced a lot of quality of life changes, new content, beautiful graphics, remixed soundtrack, balanced gameplay, etc... And they also bundled it with two games! So this is basically a remake of two games in one for the GBA, Very impressing i would say. I still prefer the PSP port for its superior gameplay, visuals and even more content, but the GBA version is still a very special port that is worth checking out. Overall, one of the best games in the console. »
« Brilliant RPG games. I never played any FF game before this one, and now I'm a fan of the series! These two games are very accesible for newcomers like me, but it also has some challenges. Both stories are pretty nice, you'll have a lot of fun with these two games. Super addictive gameplay and great soundtrack. And most importantly, it has glorious GBA graphics, what else do you need? »
« Classic game revamped, made more tolerable by a dial-down of difficulty for the main game. All the difficulty is in the new optional dungeons, as is most of the best in slot loot. I found it quite annoying to collect! »
