Final Fantasy VI by far. Every character that appeared in all the games after VI were total emo's. When FF games were stuck in only 2 dimensions, they had not enough graphic power to display their crying, whining characters.


Zidane? Emo? That's a laugh.

Lol not just Zidane. I fail to see how Tidus or Vaan fit that description either.
Out of the 6 games that followed VI... only Cloud and Squall are "emo" in any way (Lightning is not emo, just eternally pissed off xD) and that's just in the main series games (adding stuff like Crisis Core, the percentage drops even more)

Final Fantasy 4 is my favorite of favorites. The only others in the FF series I actually enjoyed was 6, 9 and 12 though. (11 to if it counts, (since its an MMORPG 'n all))
Can't play #13 or 14 since I don't have the equipment to do so. (God I wanna play the ffxiv mmo D:)

A few years ago I probably would have said VI, but now I find myself actually preferring the original. It didn't try to be anything more than a straight up fantasy game, and it's near perfect because of that. It doesn't have the problem of annoying characters, crappy romance, or a ridiculous story like the many of the others.

VII by default, as it was the only one I ever finished. Great game, if a tad overhyped. I imagine VI would be my favorite if I hadn't lost my save in a hard drive crash about halfway through the game.

No, scratch that.. Tactics, if that counts. Although again, I never completed it due to a lost save.. *sigh*

Only others I played were V and VIII, briefly. Didn't care much for them.

Lessee. Not that anyone asked, but here's my list. My order of all the good Final Fantasies (1, 3-9, arguably 10, and Tactics).

1. Final Fantasy IV
2. Final Fantasy VI
3. Final Fantasy VII

These three are some of my favorite games ever made. I'd probably say IV has the best gameplay, VI has the best characters, and VII has the best story and setting. Even though I like 4 and 6 more, 7 is by no means overrated and deserves every bit of praise it gets.

4. Final Fantasy V - Job system, the end.
5. Final Fantasy III - It's like a SNES game on an NES cart. Masterpiece.
6. Final Fantasy I - Timeless classic.
7. Final Fantasy VIII - Some good ideas (junctioning' fun, Triple Triad), some bad (forced romance, asspull ending, Eyes on freaking me, bad pacing)
8. Final Fantasy X - Some good ideas (best battle system in the series), and many, MANY bad (godawful dub, horrific railroading, bad pacing, etc. etc.)

I haven't played IX and Tactics yet, but they're definitely on my list.

And FUCK Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. Shit sucks.

I don't have a favorite. There are things about every single game I loved.
The only ones I haven't played are the non-numbered games- Like Crystal Chronicles and such, with the exception of Dissidia and Tactics:War of the Lions.

Though... If I had to chose an even top 3, they would be IV, VII:Crisis Core, Tactics:War of the Lions.

My top 7;

1. FF VI - longest and challenging FF game i've ever played, do i even have to explain more?

2. FF VII series - oh yeah, from games to movies, this game really deserves what the people whom created it wanted to.

3. FF I - because this is my first final fantasy game around 9 yrs. old and I haven't manage to clear it back then, not because the monsters are hard, heck I was around level 40 or so, it's because I don't know what to do next after the cave with lavas and fire.

4. FF IX - my next FF game after VII, my first triad game, also my very first level 1 run on the entire series xD

5. FF V - the very first FF game where I actually tried for more than 5x to defeat a certain boss, which was Atomos.

6. FF Dissidia - yay, they made it as an Action-RPG game, really addicted to it around 2 weeks

7. FFXIII - though it's not ' great as many haters said, i still like it more than the others due to it's system.

and as for the others, FF VIII, FF X and above, i haven't played or didn't manage to finish because the game crashes on some point and so i decided just to abandon it eventhough i was really enjoying playing it.. kuussssoooo! (>_<)

FF tactics and FF II-III-IV, is just mediocre due to a lot of ' enhancements ' or so they called.

Final Fantasy XII. The story is awesome and I love its battle system.
Sadly this game led me to believe that Last Remnant (both games look similar) was good, too. I wasted money back then...

Next is Final Fantasy VIII. Good story and the first complex RPG I've ever played.

I'm not sure if I've stated this before, but....Tactics not even a shred of doubt about that. And, that's just purely on the incredibly awesome storyline. I'm not even talking about the very well done battle system either. The only problem I have with Tactics is that most characters have no relevance after recruitment.

I quite enjoyed VII, VIII, IX, and X though.

Final Fantasy VIII, Squall happens to be my type of character.

Final Fantasy X was awful and had the most annoying characters ever.
Final Fantasy X-2 raped X and made it even worse, on top of that nothing you did X-2 had any relevance to the ending.

Final Fantasy XIII pretty much ruined my love for the series altogether......Almost anyway.

i take it you didn't complete X-2 100% then ;).Just picked up the new FF4 for PSP, gotta say i love it, but i think i like IX and VII better, with VIII and X behind it.

It tends to fluctuate depending on what I'm currently playing: I currently have FFI on my cell phone (FULL OF WIN! \m/), and just got FFIV: Complete Collection so I've been playing IV more because of it. I LOVE VII and VIII, but really... it's like choosing a flavor of soda... it's damned near impossible for me to give a definitive answer. I like them all for different reasons, to be honest with you.

after much deliberation i have come to a conclusion, my favorite is Final Fantasy 9. Overall i liked 9's battle system the best, i liked how it was designed to be like the older 2d games. The backgrounds for every level were well done and helps keep it looking good despite it being a ps1 game. It has deccent characters (i love Vivi and Betrix but hate some of the others, but i liked how they were all very different).

others in rank (only includes proper "numbered" games, tactics is great in its own right)

FFVI's my favourite, but IX and Tactics are pretty close behind. VI and Tactics have the best stories out of the FF games, and the one in IX wasn't bad either. They all have pretty-to-very good characters and battle systems too.

IV, V, VII, and VIII aren't that bad either, but the new ones haven't been that great (I waited too long to play X and wasn't as wowed by the graphics, so it kind of fell flat for me. Auron was cool, though.). FFVII used to be higher up in my list of top FF games, but I replayed it a few years ago and just didn't like it as much as I used to (it's still a good game, though). I guess FFTA and FFTA2 were ok too if you just go by gameplay. FFXIII and II annoyed me along with some of the other spinoffs. I never bothered with XI or XIV.

Oh yeah, and Kingdom Hearts BBS if it counts. I know it's not really an FF game, but it has Zack in it, and the battle system is awesome. The other KH games are just ok.
