I think they feel that way because it was a breakthrough in 3-D playing. Along with quite a few people, i think that VIII is the best, but i did play it first. It is a matter of opinion.

I still cant decide which is my favorite. I love them all but thers a fine line between VII & VIII. I will admit that VII was the first in the series that I played But you cant lable people on which one they played first. although I do agree to some extent that the first game you play and enjoy will probebly end up being your favorite. but thats not why I like FF VII & VIII. It's because in my opinion they have the best of it all. Best characters, Best music and story lines. I really get atached to Squall 'N' The gang or cloud 'N' His peeps every time I play. thats why VII & VIII are my favorites

id like to know how people can think that Final Fantasy VII can be reguarded as haveing 'bad' graphics? this is clearly not the case here look at my examples:
I rest my case
Like is the case with most graphic-whores, they're improperly comparing the graphics of a game from almost ten or more years ago to modern games' graphics.
Bolivar is right, FFVII did have above standard graphics for its time (besides the FMVs, the pre-rendered backgrounds are pretty wonderful if not confusing as hell. Even the polygons are nice compared to the polygons of the time). I never really thought about it before. Thanks for correcting me, Bolivar.
Hell,
Nostalgia and happy memories of a game you played a long time ago is why most people would consider their first game their favorite. Of course, I practically played FFIV and FFVI at the same time, so they both have a good deal of nostalgia to me (of course, I love all the games too much to ever decide on a favorite at once).An epic adventure across 3 cd-roms.

I like VII regardless. I like games for the STORY.
That's why I like almost all RPG's, unless they're dumb. :P

i wouldn't say that the majority of fans like FF7. thats just a baseless assumption. it might be the most popular because its the first some people played and the first 3D one. the company has a certain attachment to it because its the first 3D one, which is why they made all of those sequels and prequels.

From my understanding, 7 had done what no other game had done before. i.e. char getting killed; main char working against you; etc. It completely changed how games were made. (the storyline/plot that is)
And you have to keep in mind that this game had the best (and newest) graphics when it was made. Even though those very same graphics have been improved, this was the very first of it's graphic type. For example; the first computer was, I believe, about the size of an acre. Now, we have hand held computers. The original sucks but the it is always improved. So saying that the graphics suck while comparing it to modern graphics is not a fair compairison.
And because FF7 has made such an uproar among the gaming community, it is the most heard of and therefore, most well know game there is. So when someone is going to play an FF game, they naturally hear about 7 more than they do others. So they play 7 first. And you must admit, it is quite and introduction to the series.
7 or 8?
its either 7 or 8
