I found this at gametrailers.com:

http://www.gametrailers.com/retrospective....Final%20Fantasy

It goes through and discusses each Final Fantasy, their stories, specific qualities, and the history behind their production. It's mind blowingly awesome and a great history lesson for you new schoolers XD Actually, I think everyone can learn something new from it, regardless of whether or not you're a veteran. Sit back, put your feet up and enjoy!

PS: there's also a similar Retrospective of the Legend of Zelda for you Zelda fans out there. That was awesome too.

Edit: OMG I actually got a little teary eyed during the VI and VII parts :( *is still watching*

Ha, I was faster:

I loved these, although I usually found something they could have shown more attention too but I always found interesting details I didn't know.

Thanks a lot for the information about the Zelda Retrospective. I didn't know about that *goes watching*.
