Yes... FFVIII.
No. FF7 is my PERSONAL favourite. But its a close thing...I LIKE THEM ALL!
See, I have to disagree. FFVIII was too military-oriented...the whole 'draw' thing rubbed me the wrong way, too.
I think draw was innovative.
Innovative, yes, but not very convinient... you have to worry about how many of the spell you have at all times. To me, that's just too difficult. I want to play the game, not worry about if I dont have enough 'fire' spells.Quote:

Yes. You always know if you have the spell or not, and if you don't have MP you can always buy something to restore it. Whereas with draw, you always have to track down a monster to get the spell back.Quote:

True, but for those who PREFER magic, it can be rather annoying.Quote:

Why cant people just get it through there skulls that FFVII, maybe, just maybe, be the greatest game ever ....

Best game by Squeenix? I don't think so. Most revolutionary game by Squeenix? By far. It opened the floodgates for RPGs, and drew in a larger crowd to the once nerdy RPG genre. FFVII was the last Final Fantasy game that I enjoyed from start to finish, and I hope that FFXII gives the series the same flair that it used to have.
Jowy, FFVII is by Squaresoft, not Square-Enix.
In my opinion FFVIII is the best, with FFIX and FFVI coming in joint second.
Still the same company. They just merged with another and changed the name. That's like saying the old EB Games down the street that became a GameStop is still an EB Games.
VII is my favorite, VIII was decent but just never caught me like VII, IX or X did.
I think VII was the best, I got really involved with the storyline. VI is a close second though.
:mog: the problem here is the there is some decsension in our ranks. this is a website dedicated to what we all can agree is the best series of video games ever. who cares which in the series is the best, thats wat makes the series soo great the fact that each game is a diferent experience and those of us that perfer different elements of each game just need to choose the best one for their style. if you like cuztomizing yur party, and having a different experience each time you play, theres ff i, iii, v, x-2, and tactics. for those that prefer a more regimented linear gameplay with static(albeit awesome characters) the tend to perfer the others. there are other examples, and that why we all know that final fantasy does and will awesome kick the ass of every other game made.:mog:
I wouldnt say so but now that Im starting to think back on it Im beginning to appreciate it more.
FFVII had the best magic/skill system of any Square/Squaresoft/Square-Enix game. The Materia system was easily the best. Sure, the Junction system of VIII was great for maxing stats easily, but it eliminated the usefullness of magic, and it also got rid of a ton of the really cool abilities that dominated in VII. 4xCut, Slash-All, Deathblow, Morph, and of course Mime.
Was VII the best game? Much more difficult decision. It was one of the better games, no doubt, being well rounded in terms of plot, characters, graphics, sound, and gameplay, but I won't comment on whether or not it was the best.
No way! never the best square game. i admit it is a great game, but has many downfalls. too many
FINAL FANTASY VII is not only the best square game, it's THEE best game of all time in my opinion.:D :D
Seriously, there is no BEST FF game!
FFVII > FFVIII XD

I favor FFVII, but i havent played ALL of the FF games, only I, II, VII, VIII, VIX, VX soo...
my personal fave is also ffVII, i thought it had the best storyline and although the charaters looked square.... i liked the fact that they were square.
FFVII is my favorite, but I think Xenogears is better.
FFVII is a really good Square game, probably tied with FFVI for my favorite Final Fantasy game. However it isn't my favorite Square game.
i can never decide which is my favourite between 7 and 10, i think 10 probably tops it just, but only becuse it has graphics and wot not that weren't available when 7 was made. i think if 7 got remade n ps3 i would need a serious rethink.
lol DMKA's sig is funny
Nah, you can just cast fire from your opponet instead of using it from your stock and I go with VIII and IX as my favorite FFs, Squaresoft chooses VII for some reason, I would've thought it would be the original since it saved their butts from retirement. But I would rather much see a FFVIII movie and a sequal for FFIX rather than VII or X.Quote:

Having played every mainstream Final Fantasy game to date I can safely say FFVII is not the best Final Fantasy game. It's probably somewhere in the top 5, but it certainly doesn't deserve top honours. FFIX on the other hand... classic.
I liked both FFVII and FFVIII, I like FFIX the first followed by both of these two games. FFVIII is not military like, its love type, it's a great game. I never played FFVIII but I enjoyed it with my friend tutorials. FFVII is also a great game with changes in graphic and I like the storyline. I honestly don't like FFVIII storyline but it was okay for me.
