I have a huge timer on ffx, but that's because I did a lot of stuff xD

It's probably taking me the longest to beat ff4 and 2 because I started 4 once and stopped, so I count that as one game that continued from when I restarted, and then I haven't felt the need to practice counting in french (to keep from fakecasting spells more than 100 times in ff2) so I haven't played on ff2j in a while either xD

The longest was tactics. I was trying to get Reis to learn every classes moves (without cheating). I was around 220 or so hours when I made the fatal mistake of deleting the wrong file. So no my awesumo party is stuck right before fighting Altima. GRRR, it still bugs me. But as for actually beating the game, FF7. Why? Because I heard horror stories about how hard he was. But holy fruit he's easy! I can't remember how long it took though. And FF4 was a pain since you had to level up so much. OH NO, quick, gotta get to Rosa's turn and heal! lol. That game was good, but that one fact made it suck.

Ohhh

I have to say FFVIII, I still haven't completed it, and i think this is the most boring FF out of them all.. I got about as far as Adel, and i just couldn't beat her, then i was told, as i gain levels, so do the bosses. SO THERE IS SUCH THING AS TRAINING TOO HARD!

FFVIII took longest to beat the story
I have the largest file on FFX, but the story I blasted through......

I guess if you consider the fact that I've probably played the first Final Fantasy dozens and dozens of times but have still never found the time to beat it, I guess it would be that one.

FFVII. I played it on an old PC that didn't meet the requirements. So loading times were really bad. The timers would go at the right speed, but everything else would go really slow, so I'd have to transfer my saves over to my dad's computer so that I could beat those parts... what a horrible gaming experience. Shows how good FFVII was. It was horrible to play, but I was always eager to find out what comes next.

FFVIII I had such a hard time understanding that junction system before i finally had it down. And looking for parts for Squall's sword.

Final Fantasy II. I didn't know about the leveling cheat back then, so it took me forever to make my character do decent damage and have decent defense/HP. -_-

Mine was ffviii because i couldn't beat Adel, then I realized that my players were too waek and had to start the game all over to make them stronger. And it was my first final fantasy

I think I've logged more time in FFXI than any other game and still haven't beaten it. I have brought shame upon my ancestors...

FFVII, because it was my first FF and I didn't have a clue what I was doing.

FFX took longer to beat, not in play time, but overall time because I got stuck at 1 point and didn't go back to it for a while.

As for which took the longest ammount of play time, I don't know. But I've clocked the most hours on IX, with over 100.

FFVIII, as I played it on and off for 3 1/2 years before beating it.

FF5, 9, 10, and 10-2 each took me about 6 months to a year.

Yes, I have a life. ;)

The actual hour count on each was about the same: about 40-60 hours.

I think I have several months, if not a year, between starting ff4 and restarting ff4.

I've got about 250 hours on FFX.

FFT and FFX. i had 105 hours on Tactics, i was screwing around trying to train cloud and just about everyone else when i accidently beat a week ago thinking i was far from the end. And on X i had about 140 hours it 'cause i'm addicted to Blitzball.
