The Best Final Fantasy Game

[Kijuki_Magazaki]

Then again that's your opinion osmose.

I never found the FF series really to be, interesting. However I did payed attention enough to them to know the games by a bit.  And all of the stories some seem interesting, but other seem way off, for my likes. FF8 had something I liked in some games, and so did other FF games. But I won't get into technical specs, in order to not go off-topic.

It wasn't Sephiroth that really made the game cool. For me, if a character is cool, that doesn't make the game cool. What I liked about FF7 was the mix of battle and story. Sometimes you notice that a game has way too much storywise, like Xenogears(battle system saves that game, thank god). Others are too focused on the system, and very little story, like FFT:A. FF7 really balanced it out - after awhile, other FF battle systems get boring after a long time, but I never got tired of FF7.

The only FF Battle system I was tired with was FF8, it just took to long to get into a battle, and to attack. Whew!

Something about FF7s music

That's because that was one of the most powerful things about FF7. The music fit every mood, and after a game of no voices and minimal sound (well, there were battle effects and warks and what not) I was suprised to hear the choir of Sephy's.

I think FF7 is overrated because so many people like it and it's not really a great game. I liked LoD much better.

I liked 7 mostly because Sephiroth was so cool! I Tactics and Tactics Advance were cool too.

FF6 and FF7. But I said FF7. Basically those games were SO good that when you remember parts it's like having fond memories and wanting to do it again. WHO THE HELL VOTED FOR 10-2?

Not really a great game? I truly doubt they will EVER bring out a better one. And it wasn't just Sephiroth, before you ask. It was   everything. The dingy slums of Midgar, the rolling plains and forgotten memories, the doubt and sorrow mixed with good times and joy. The weapons! Oh my god, ultima weapon and such portrayed better than ever before! The highwind, how I liked just to stroll around the inside, or fly around in the sky for no reason! Vincent, Hojo, Sephiroth, Jenova, Lucrecia, their story unfolded beautifully.

And FF6, well that had the most classic moments ever. The opera house, for instance, was pure genius and a joy to play. Ultros was so funny, and past the 2D graphics was a really great game. So that's my second favourite of all time.

FFX-2 had teh boobies. It had absolutely nothing else.
Or maybe it was the only game they had. Who knows?


Anyway, sure it would be milking a cow long dead with 42 bullets in its head, lit on fire and eaten by a leprechaun, but I wouldn't mind playing a PS2 version of FF7 with some what upgraded graphics.

Somewhere, Square just got a little richer.

I had to vote for 10. 7 was really great, but I just plain loved 10. I wish they had made a better sequel, though. 10-2 sucked. Alot.

Heres my opinion on the "over-rated" FF7. If you know nothing about the game, and no one has ever told you anything, most people I bet would think it was a great game. However, when people just say "FF7 is the BEST game ever", people get high expectations for the game, but when they play it and the game dosen't live up to their expectations, then it dosen't seem nearly as good.

Chrono Cross is another example, I heard a lot of people thought it was a great game, so about a month ago I bought a used copy of it. I thought it was gonna be this outstanding game if people said it was better than FF7, but it didn't live up to my expectations, and I turned out not liking it too much. I still thought it was a pretty good game though, just not as good as I had hoped.

For god sake, no game is over-rated!
Everyone is different and the ones who likes it think it's good and the other doesn't. FFVII will always be a hate or love game.
I loved it, not because of sephiroth, it was because of everything just like MooseT just said. Sephiroth wasn't really as cool as everyone says, he was a lunatic. If I would walk around with a masamune and a black cape, killing people like a psycho, would you guys think I'd be cool? XD
Sure, Sephiroth was pretty a$$some but I didn't like him like some people does.
But, I love every single FF in every single way.  

Btw, Zelos would whip Seph's a$$ in one hit. XD

You forgot the ones I've actually played. Heh.

But out of the NES/SNES bunch... well, actually I don't know which one's my favorite. Probably either 3 or 6, but pretty much all of them were good.. well, the original 2 forced you to pretty much cheat just to level up enough, but besides that it was not bad at all. And they fixed it some in the GBA remake (though that might've just been me overleveling just to survive after being stuck at Mysidia waaaay before I was supposed to be there, thanks to a chocobo, heh...)

Ahem...

Ironically Darkfox, had he created a another which FF is the best thread, he would have had many a member biting his āss about "There's already a thread made about this!" Cache 22, what's a newb to do?
