Which FF game has the best summon spells?
IMO, ff8.
I would say that ff9's were the best
They looked amazing!!
But i havent seen the summons on ff10 yet though!!
They are cool too in FF9 but in FF8, they are...
...they are...
They are!

1. Wrong Forum
2. Where's the Poll?
*moves thread to Gen. FF*
The Aeons in FFX are by far the coolest as you can control thier attacks.
As crono said, where's the poll?
Sigless
The aeons in FFX. They're controllable, they have their own overdrives, you can make them learn abilities.
It now feels like they are a part of your party, instead of being weapons to be used for battle or to enhance your party.
i hate the idea of ff10 sphere grid... i prefere level ups
*agrees with crono* It's a pity you can't add polls to a thread after it's started. Ah well.
I reckon FFVIII had the best ones. Good variety, plus some were entertaining =D Gotta love that Tonberry King. And Cactuar! WOO! xD It's also quite well done how you have to wait a bit while you summon the suckers.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!

Not sure if FF1/2 had summons, guess that can always be changed though
FFIX of course. Here are my reasons why.
FFX They just got to be TOO powerful. I killed the final boss in 2 hits using ONLY one summon. (and I NEVER got CLOSE to being fully maxed out with everything.)
FFVIII Relies on you to use your summons for just about EVERY battle up unti lthe last battle which took fricking forever without my summons.
FFVII Good use of summons but never got the chance to use them much.
FFVI NEVER used a summon through the whole game unless I got bored. All they ever did was waste MP and time as Ultima and such did the job faster and cheaper.
FFV by the end the summons were ok but still we weak against the final boss.
FFIV Good usage but still most summons were pointless (bomb? Sylph? Asura? what was the point?)
FFIII good because they had more thne just one kind of attack but bad as even the mighty Bahamut was only hitting for maybe 1000 on the last boss. Waste of MP for anything but cure4 with my sages in that battle.
The reason why I chose FFIX's summons was clear. They were strong and very usefull. I found EVERY summon usefull but 2 Atomos and Carbunkle. But I used them all the time as they were well worth the MP cost.
This space intentionally left blank.
FFVII, it's what summons are supposed to be. Wicked magic spells that do loads of damage and take hella mp.
FFIX had this too but only 2 people could use them.

Cactuar, Tonberry, Diablos.
Response to Bahamut2000X:
FFX: I'll concede that one.
FFVIII: <cough> Meltdown and Lionheart </cough>
Oh, and creative use of the junction system all but eliminates the need for GFs to be summoned.
FFVII: I'm assuming you were talking about the obscene MP costs? Worth it, and pretty fair, really.
FFVI: I'll concede that. However, the Espers CAN be useful. (Bismark in the burning house.)
FFV: UH-UH!!! Bahamut is TOO useful! As was Carbunkle, at times. Odin saved my hide more times than I care to count.
FFIV: Asura aslo saved my butt. The ability to cast a random beneficial spell on EVERYONE helps a LOT.
Never played FF3.
Admittedly, FF9 had great summons, but....I dunno....the ability to actually CONTROL the summons? Too good to be true!
I was just voting on how absurdly cool I think those summons are, by the way. Value in combat is not an issue.
vote for FFVII!
Odin looks awesome!
FF6- Summons are quite useless in battle, never used them very often...
FF8:looking great, but you have to use them too often
FF5:...Summons are OK!
FF4: Bahamut is important!
FF3: Cool!!!!!!!The first FF-summons !!!!
1+2 don't have summons(CL is right!)
Haven't played 9+10 yet!
