In the past few days, I have thought about this topic a great deal. I've searched online fairly thoroughly and I've, so far, found very little to help. Initially, I simply wondered how easy ODINS and HDINS were in the various final fantasy games, but then I began to wonder - which final fantasy game has the longest speedrun? And which has the shortest speedrun? There will obviously be a great deal of variance between games on different platforms, but this is mainly just to see if there happens to be any emerging pattern at all. I've added the dates the games were first released next to each of them too

I've compiled the list to have the main games (I-XIII, X-2 and XIII-2 in the first list, followed by a few others in a secondary list; if you'd like me to add any others, I will

) I'd be very grateful if anyone could help me compile this list, as, though I have searched a great deal, it is very possible I have simply missed information. If you do happen to post information, please also add a link to some sort of evidence, be it a forum thread or something else. Thank you
