I'd argue there are better ways to play all of these except maybe FFIII (Japanese FFIII, not VI)
Do note that I'm a weird person though, if you just want to play the games, those versions are fine and effortless
I don't like that they stripped out all of the extra content that the other releases added.
As I said in another topic, this is the only way to play FF3 in its original form (or at least close to it) and in a language other than Japanese, outside of emulation. The DS remake is fine, but it is definitely a different experience.
I can't speak for the other, but in my opinion the Woolsey Uncensored version is the best way to play FFVI.
I use the Woolsey translation as part of Dancing Mad, which compiles a lot of stuff and gives you the option to use MSU1 for CD quality tracks.
I use the Synthetic Origins tracks by Matthew Valente which tries to be as close to the original as possible while using uncompressed samples.
Great tip, I'll look into it for my next playthrough!
