I don't care what you think of Tidus and Squall
THEY ARE THE BEST CHARACTERS
what makes me laugh is the zombie Aerith/Aeris is in the list
this is IGN nothing new

I'll be honest this is much better then I expected from IGN. Usually ALL they do is cater to shallow fanboys. In this however they seem to have put in a LITTLE effort. Some of the choices and descriptions were actually pretty decent. Not including Squall was something I never would have thought them capable of doing so kudos to them. Though if they were gonna give a spot for just for dying it should have went to Tidus. I was actually happy when he died instead of just not giving a crap when Aeris died. Anyway thanks for trying IGN but you're still a miserable failure making a fool of yourself to anyone with a brain who has played Final Fantasy.
Squall was an okay character IMO, but not good enough to warrant a place on a top 25 list. Perhaps an honorable mention.
And I don't care what you think of Tidus and Squall, I can get my point across better than you can because I can use reasoning instead of flashy annoying bold red text, along with the fact I'm not a fanboy blinded by blind fanaticism. (:jess:)
Tidus never deserved to be in a Final Fantasy at all. He was a boring, pathetic, selfish fool who whined about anything he didn't like. There was hardly any character development, unless you count how he eventually wormed his way into Yuna's heart with cliché lines and Hallmark card-quality advice. Unlike "zombie Aeris", I was happy when Tidus vanished. In the very least, Aeris played with your emotions a bit. As for Tidus vanishing, it was like having your real-life female friend breaking up with her idiot boyfriend. Sure, you feel bad for her, but on the inside you're happy the idiot's gone.
Tidus is down there with Cloud and Sephiroth, IMO.
In Squall's case, he had a cool character design (read: no smurfing ridiculous costume, like most of Nomura's designs today), and he had a normal teenage personality. The reason I say he shouldn't be in such a list is because he didn't do anything to stand out at all, except if you count that he had not a gun, not a sword, but a GUNBLADE! (Ooooooooooh~) In other words, he was pretty bland. Squall's one of my favorite characters, though, because he feels more like a real person.
Either way, neither deserved a spot on the list, and nor did half of the characters on the list. Like I said before, that stupid list was nothing more than fanboy appeasement.
Squallberry should be on that list, too.

You are awesome and I completely agree. He also has one of my favorite quotes from any FF.
"Right and wrong are not what separate us and our enemies. It's our different standpoints, our perspectives that separate us. Both sides blame one another. There's no good or bad side. Just 2 sides holding different views."
THE JACKEL
This foolish tomfoolery fools only the foolish fools!
I know you're all just waiting for me to comment.
Am I surprised at Sephiroth being number 1? No.
Does this offer more proof to the Atheist belief? Yes.
Does IGN's list matter? No.
Do fanboy nut-huggers of FFVII think IGN's list matters? Yes.
This is even more inspiration for my first YouTube video. If I ever get the time you can all expect a nice long rant from me about Kuja vs. Sephiroth. Stay tuned but don't hold your breath.
Please don't. The whole "FFVII/Sephirth/Cloud' is overrated" thing has been done to death at this point. All it results in is people who disagree getting irrationally defensive and people who do agree circle-jerking each other ad nauseum.
Therein lies the fun though. Pissing off creepy fanboys.
Besides,, I won't just rant and blow smoke. I plan to explore Kuja's and Sephiroth's characters, appearances and so-forth.
