l Sailor Cancer l I disagree about 8-9-10 being the best game for me is FFVI. It had a great cast great story and a cool crazy villain that actually succeeds with his plan in destroying the world. I have played all the FF's 'except 14 . I am waiting for 14 to hit Ps3. Each game is good and has their flaws. FF9 was my favorite out of 7-10. People talk allot of crap about FF12 I am so glad we didn't get the same old love story over and over . I like that it was set in Ivalice. I like the battle system and the License was cool that you could use any weapon. Penelo with a huge a** sword ftw and glad they did away with random battles . The game really didn't have a set main character even though it was supposed to be Vann. FFXIII also gets alot of crap. I think allot of people don't like that the main character is a woman.Which is why people are more excited for FFvs13 it has another emo looking dude. This game needed to be linear with how the story progressed you are on the run you don't have time to be flying around in airships and going to item shops busting into peoples houses which should be locked to take treasure out. The only thing that pissed me off about 13 is in battles if your main dies its game over you should have been able to switch like in FFX.Otherwise it was a good battle system. only epic thing about VI was kefka's laugh ^^ good thing about it was that...everyone had their own abilities (gau with rage, edgar with his tools) just like IX and that made it good ^^ and final fantasy 13...its not about that woman...thing is that 13 is not final fantasy...its .hack//gu without trading, mailbox, huge a** swords with chainsaws built in them and people in coma ^^ btw...in XII it should have been ashe the main character, not vaan...he was just a bystander...

FF6 was more epic than just Kefka's laugh lol. The story relic system and cast with the unique abilities drew me in and still does to this day. Thats why FF9 is my favorite out of 7-10 because it reminds me of the old school FF's.
I agree with you that FF12 Ashe was more the main character story wise. I have no idea why Square said Vann was the main character in promotions he kind of just was there not really important at all.

no...i think that was pretty much it that made it epic XD ...well magitek rides too XD ...kinda started playing it again some time ago...gba version this time for my playstation disc got too much damage...-_-
but seriously the same things drew me too... only thing that bothered me in VI was...everyone was able to do summoning and use magic after equipping espers in later game...lucily IX did not have that ^^ also that dividing people into teams thing in VI was nice ^^
yeah...i mean even fran, bash and mr 007 had more important roles than he did XD only think that made people notice him was running around, yelling "IM CAPTAIN BASH AND IM ALIVE"

Well, I have to agree that FFI-X were great, FFX-2 raped blitzball and focused more on intimate relationships than a relevant plot. And anything after X is substandard if you ask me. They changed the battle systems, the music, heck, they even belittled the chocobos! Whether the fault lies with changes in staff for the makers of FF games or in experiments with new systems, I think that everyone can agree that the FF series is suffering a decline, if not many declines. I fear that Final Fantasy has reached and passed its zenith, and is now falling from stardom. The last FF game that I truly enjoyed was FFX, which has brought me great joy and countless hours of gameplay. Sadly, the newer games fail to entertain or captivate me like the classics. Let us honor the classics that made us love the world of Final Fantasy! And let us make known our dissappointment in the new additions that fail to live up to the classics.

Last one I tried was 12...I couldn't for the life of me get into it. X was ok, but it was so linear. Haven't played X-2. 11 was me'h and I've heard nothing but terrible things about 13 and 14...Never got too into 8, loved the rest of the series.
I've pretty much gievn up on the Final Fantasy series. It had a good run, but I just cant click with it anymore or something.

ozxander I'm afraid i must partially disagree. Personally i liked 12. The gameplay wasnt the best but i liked the story. It was intriguing. And besides Vaan and Penelo, the characters were interesting. The license system was innovative, even if it sounds silly that you cant use a particular sword until you get a license for it. I prefer to think of it as you arent allowed to until you get the proper license. I will totally agree with you on 13 tho. It just didnt click at all with me. And i cant comment on 11 or 14 as ive never played them. I'm a WoW man myself blaugh I'd have to agree with you. 12 had amazing gameplay- kind of like KH gameplay only you could switch between characters. I liked it a lot. I love games 1-5 (I own them all), 7 was a really unique turn, 8 I loved the characters (same goes for 9), and 12 had amazing gameplay as well as an amazing world. I don't care much for 10 save that I loved playing Blizball and I love Tidus- 10-2 was a complete waste of time on so many levels (Rikku was its only redeeming quality). 11 and 14 are online games and 11 was kind of weak and 14 has too many newborn errors to even seriously consider. I hate 13 for all of its shortcomings, although, the world was beautiful. I can't believe they're making a 13-2 because the first one wasn't even that amazing to warrant a part 2 of it. I'm excited for Versus and Type 0 (Formerly known as FFXIII Agito) because the game play for both looks f-ing incredible. Seriously, Noctis looks amazing and the kids in Type 0 have awesome abilities. I love it.

Anolis, I've gotta ask: Of everything you said, what's wrong with post-X chocobos?!
And Anolis and Mikoto... Eh, maybe the more recent games haven't been the best (though I do like XIII), but I certainly wouldn't say the series is doomed. Patience. There is hope. 3nodding
