What was the first Final Fantasy game you played? When was it? What made you try it out?

First one I ever played was FF4 (known as 2 at the time in the States) on SNES. I was real young, but I have two older brothers that are 9 and 12 years older than me. They owned both 4 and 6 on the SNES, and I used to play all of their games. I remember being ADDICTED to them! I used to play them to the end and then start a new game all over again.

So how about you guys? Have you been hooked since the original NES FF1? Or did your relationship with the series start with FF7? Hell, I know people who just tried the series out recently and became hooked.
