www.retrojunk.com/article/show/4734/the-games-of-christmas-past"Final Fantasy IX (2000 Age: 11) - FF9 is another. The same "pals" mentioned earlier lived a street over from me during my grade-school days & we'd always act-out elaborate scenarios based on games like Final Fantasy with us as characters and an assortment of sticks as weapons and villains. This particular tradition started when we discovered Final Fantasy IX when I was 11. I recall one time after walking home from their house, I was still in the play-time mood and started fighting a giant snowbank in my front yard, by myself. Imagining I was fighting Black Waltz #1 in the Ice Cavern.... I hope the neighbors thought I was out of my mind." Haha that sounds like fun. I remember doing the same with FF7.

I did the same kinda thing but with Star Wars. Shooting down the neighborhood streets on my bike making speeder sounds. Needless to say I spent a lot of time playing by myself as well.

I played batman. The occasional lightsaber fight did happen though. I didn't really get into final fantasy til I was like 14.

Sounds like my youth growing up in the Canadian winter forests, I actually believed Ice Cavern was my backyard.

My school playground was filled with the X-Men. I had a ridiculous plastic watch from Kmart that I attached mechanical pencils to and was Wolverine.
