    Default Did FFVII deserve to win "EoFF Ranks final Fantasy"?

    If you're not in the know, I ran an event in January where we ranked all the Final Fantasy Games to see which one was the best. Surprising no one FFVII took the top spot, but is it deserving of the title of best Final Fantasy game?

    If not, which game should hold the top spot?

    Since it won, it deserved it. It wasn't a ranking of the best, just the most popular in out group. So if most people voted for it, I don't see why it shouldn't be deserving of the title.

    No because it's not V. It doesn't even have Gilgamesh, how dare it call itself a Final Fantasy!

    Questioning this sounds like something a commie would do...

    I do not know where to begin.

    You jump off a train and a big Mr. T looking mothersmurfer says "Come on, follow me"

    So you follow the guy, naturally. Little do you know that your entire identity of "Badass Mercenary" is about to be destroyed and reconstructed in the image of a simple man from the mountain town of Nibelheim.

    Final Fantasy VII kicks the trout out of any other JRPG. The only problem with it is that every time you enter the temple of the Ancients...

    (SPOILER)You get to look forward to Aerith dying.

    That aside, the Materia system, the Fort Condor battles, the G Bike minigame, the tv commercials, the joy of hearing One Winged Angel as you pound Sephiroth into the pavement...

    Final Fantasy VII is THE video game.

    Perhaps the most quintessential video game ever made.

    Lemme guess...6 right?

    While a fine game in its own right, 6 is the poor mans slow version of 7.

    Well I consider all the entries from V to XII to be about equally "good" and couldn't call any one of them the "best". My personal favorite is X, though.

    Matt, just let this competition go. It was fun when it was around, but your hey-day is over. Stop trying to relive the drama you caused!

    I, personally, think that Persona 3 deserved to win, but it seems somebody forgot to include it in the choices. From the choices provided, though, Final Fantasy IX is obviously the best choice. Though, I will still give VII a lot of credit, because it is almost equally as good.

    You did? Well it surprises me considering as long as I've been on this forum I know that FFVII is the not majority's favorite here. Did we allow public votes?
