I do REALLY like IX but I'm sorry guys, FFVI is just a CLASSIC. I had it on the SNES as FF3 and it was awesome then and it's awesome now. It has a solid storyline, in depth characters, SWEET music.. what more do you need? While I admit, the love story is lacking, that's not really what all FFs need to be about. :3 FFIX comes in a close second.
