Which FF do you think has the best game cover and the best dic cover, looking at FFX-2 i say it wins for best disc cover, with FFVIII's disc 1 in second place.

For the actual game cover I think that VIII deserves it
If you're not familiar with all of them here they are

I don't recognise any of the later pictures. Silly foreign packaging.

I like the box art of FFX-2 and the disc art of FFVIII. Of course, mine are the UK versions, and so are different from the pictures you posted.

The original FF6 packaging is the best

VII's VII's is the most boring one, it's so plain.

VIII, X, X-2:choc2:

Can't wait to see FFXIII's cover(yes I am talking 'bout FF 13! 12....doesn't seem to be looking that great when it comes to characters)

That Jap FFVI cover looks pretty awesome.

The UK cover art totally beats any of those. Simple plain white background with the FF logo. Basic, effective, it stands out and easily signifies the game as part of the series. Of those, the best is probably FFIX, cause it's got a splash of gold, but I like the FFX one too.

I think Final Fantasy VIII for the cover but the best disc is FFX-2

Out of those posted, VI is the most awesome. But V is amazin too. Bartz looks like a superhero ^_^

Final Fantasy 7, Cloud looking up and shinra hq, with the big sword and spiky hair, I think is a classic image. The culmination of the Midgar section of that game is in that building, the cover is simple but sweet. I think another part of this discussion should be the best end disc screens where I think Final Fantasy VII wins hands down with its beautifully rendered pictures of the main characters, barret with marlene in Aeris Garden, Yuffie looking over Wutai, etc. Final Fantasy 8's were sort of weird and I don't remember Final Fantasy 9's. I also think Final Fantasy VII had the best "sleep" song too (can you tell it's my favorite game.)

I think the first one is pretty cool. Other than that VI has a good cover too.
