FFVII is the greatest FF and the greatest Game ever.
I'd like to say Im stating that as fact not opinion.
FF7 is my favorite game of all time, although everyone is entitled to their own oppion and i do realise there are a lot of people who find the others better :choc:
FFVII is simply the best
i wqould say that ff7 is either first or second bested or closely followed by ff10. then ff8 then ff9 (not inc. 1-6)
Its a good game but in order of favorites VII is 6th on my list: VIII,IX,V,VI,X,VII,IV,X-2.
Back to the "Hardcore Samurai," it sounds like you really like FFX, so maybe that would be your favorite. I think how the story's told is a huge part of a story, the timing of when it comes determines how you feel about the various moments.
What I value most though (not really but it sounds better to say something decisive and committing) is character I can connect to, and look at the ways they think and interact with the world around them. The ways they interact with a story can make something I might not care for something I love. I love seeing thoughts different from my own but with a thought process I think I understand. I love watching this relate to others who again make sense in their way with their own understanding of the world. I love FFVIII, it's my favorite game because (well again not solely because or anything but this may be the biggest reason) Squall does this for me. Various moments, mostly how he responds to various characters stick out for me, one rarely if ever used example is his response to FH. They want peace, no fighting no violence, something I relate to as I'm highly opposed to violence (though most people misconstrue my meaning when I say that) and Squall's response fit so well to how I think. It's not a big thing, just a little touch that adds so much to the characters of FFVIII in my eyes. I didn't mean to write this much (especially about FFVIII in the FFVII forum) but that's what makes it best for me.
FFVII contains a storyline that I think works wonderfully, characters I enjoy and the ever fun materia system. It's got many great moments and wonderful cities, in their social structure as well as feel. It could easily be the greatest game imo, but it doesn't have what VIII does.
FFX also has it wonderful parts. The story is told well, the linearity works as does the battle system. The graphics are lovely with a very different feel than other FFs. It's a great game too.
FFIX could also be my favorite, more light hearted with fun cartoonish graphics, but also magnificent cut scenes. It's great antagonist, story and feel make it a possible favorite as well.
I think the most important part though is enjoying them, though if you like to place them in order (as I do) that's great too.
Looking over what I wrote I kind of sound like a fanboy... But games are meant to (make money, but ignoring that for the moment) be fun, and these games succeed wonderfully.
Oh, and to give a list:
1. FFVIII (I kind of made that obvious)
...
2. FFVII
3. FFX
4. FFIX
5. FFT (Didn't talk about this but it's an excellent game too)
6. FFX-2 (I like this game, it's fun to bash, but it's also fun)
7. FFI (It was fine)
I'd like to get around to completing other FFs sometime. FFIV seems really strong, (meaning would come right after X-2 but before a lot on non-FF games), FFVI would probably be next, then FFV, and FFII would probably come after FFI.
I don't care if you say FFVII is the best game but if you only played 2 FF games and say that then you're a fan boy who has nothing else better to do but to make a post about "THE GREATEST GAME IN THE WORLD!". I mean, play 8 FF games from the original series then get back to me. If you feel it's still "THE BEST GAME EVER!" then no sweat. You're opinion. Just don't go ahead of yourself thinking about the greatest when you haven't had much experience with others...
The first FF i played was FF6 but FF7 is the best hands down, ive played n completed them all but ff7 just takes the cake. 6 and 10 come in 2nd n 3rd.... I'm no fanboy its just the simple truth...
Ps Kurt Cobain sucks willey in hell
Yeah....Whatever fanboy.Quote:

hey kurt cobain might of not of been for everybody (especially not me) but no need to disrepect the memory of a dead guy! its just plain twatty!
7 had a really good storyline but the way the story is told has been improved as the games gone on, and also the graphics.
My theory is the 1st FF you play tends to be your faviorite because it is what captured you into the FF series. This is why many tend to think 7 is the best because it is the 1st 1 they played.
i know in my case this is true, 8 was the 1st i played and it has since been my faviorite, probley because its what 1st captured me.
but maybe i'm wrong
I personally think it's the best game I've EVER played on, seriously it is, the only downside is the graphics, but for the time there OK, and the backgrounds are pretty amazing and EVERYTHING about it is excellent. 15/10
So what if he's only played 2 Final Fantasy games? It can still be the greatest, in his opinion.Quote:

But yeah, I think FFVIII is the best one. It was the first one I played, and I'm still not sure if that had anything to do with it. It has the best ending, I think, in the entire series (although X does give it a run for it's money), which is something that's important to me. And the story and characters and music and gameplay and everything else is magnificent!
So far I've enjoyed all the other ones I've played too, though some considerably more than others.
Judging from this statement, you only care that X has good graphics and music. Forget gameplay and story! Just kidding, I'm sure that your just saying the graphics and music gave you a better feeling for the game.Quote:

EDIT:That's bull, FFVII, VIII, and X were the first three FF's I played and VII is the only one that was very good. The point is it's a good game. I didn't even start IV until after I beat VII. And now that I think about it, same goes for VI.Quote:
