Why is Final Fantasy so popular?

if a game gets good reviews and praise of course people are gonna want it...i like them cause the stories are so deep and the gameplay is always awesome:D

This might shed some light on the issue...;)

I heard about the series from a nagging friend who forced it down my throat... Still haven't thanked him.
