The soundtrack was one of the better ones I've heard. The songs just felt inspiring. The story wasn't shabby either. Sonia has got to be one of the better villains I've seen. Her soul is black and devoid of warmth (best line ever).
What I liked most about Fire Emblem was the unforgiving difficulty. Making a single miscalculation will almost always result in a character death. It took my forever to beat the game with all characters surviving. In addition, experience is an extremely valuable commodity. Really, the only strategy that makes sense is to have your final party chosen from the get go, and don't let anyone else any combat. The arenas add an interesting twist to this dynamic, giving the opportunity to gain experience (you're lying to yourself if you go for the money), but at a high risk of losing the character.

I generally dislike the system. Shops on the battlefield alone is pretty stupid, but the combination of very high randomization of the battles and permament death plus no way to save just ruins all the fun for me. When I attack a boss with 1 HP using an axe with my best swordsman at full health and a killsword, and the boss then evades and counters with a critical, killing my character forcing me to restart that's not difficult, it's plain stupid.
Other than that, the stories feel a bit lacking, it's really always the same "Prince Nameless saves Magical Kingdom" kind of formular, though nothing really bad. Especially in Sacred Stones, a great deal of the characters seems to have rather thin, exchangable personalities as well.
Despite all this, I some always return to the series when a new game is released

I've played most FE games that are out though never finished one other than Rekka no Ken (the one with no subtitle in English). I also can't stand people saying "FE4" or "FE6" as I never know which one is which, as some count the remake, most count Gaiden, and there's no consistency if Sacred Stones or the GC Title is counted first as one was announced first and the other was released first.
FE6- Sealed Sword
FE7- Blazing Sword
FE8- Sacred Stones

OH!
Well, actually, it's not a actual GBA game, I am playing it on the emulator. It's a fan translation of course.

Marcus was better in Eliwood's story and in HEcotr's story, he was like a old man who could''t figt
but Oswin was beastly with his defence unlike WAllace who was only good in LYn's story..

I really liked using Canas, when he's a level 20/10 Druid, he just owns everyone with his dark magic! XD
Marcus sucks, he's an exp thief... The End
All good characters from FE7:
Hector
Florina
Oswin
Canas
Dart
Pent
Karel
Jaffar
Nino

Renault actually sucks, he's the worst magic user in the game though his Fortify staff is cool.

The storylines are very weak, however. The support system and characters make up for it though. The plot overall is dull, but the individual characters, their relationships and backgrounds and struggles, in FE7 especially are beautiful and creative. I'm dreading FE10 because they MURDERED the support system. The characters are going to get no development and the plot is going to be awful because the supports are literally two lines long and are very impersonal. I'll still love the gameplay, I'll still be obsessed with getting the strategy just right, but the plot is going to be very severely lacking to me and I won't love most of the characters like I did in 7 and 8.
The graphics and music are nice as well, although they don't stick out at me much. The characters and strategy are what sell this game to me. I really can't express how much I adore them.
As for favorite characters: (Personality wise, not value wise, as they're all usable)
FE7: Nino, Lucius, Raven, Florina, Hector (although I loved most of the FE7 characters, really)
FE8: Lute, Amelia, Niemi, Artur, Joshua
FE9: Soren, Jill, Lucia, Shinon, Ranulf

I did not find the final battle in FE9 that difficult on hard mode, maxed stats Ike (which is really easy to have) with his special sword>Final boss.
Hmm...I see.
I've heard that the bonus map "A strange Turn" or something like that is really hard...but thats not ingame and I haven't played all the way in my Hard mode file...Damn Black Knight.
Now thinking about it, the game is hard in chapters 2-17...then after Ike turns into a Lord the game is pretty easy.

Hopefully, I'll get it before I move out.
