favourite Final Fantasy game

I played the japanese version of dissidia and it was awesome. Couldn't read what the menus said but I did find a translation and played as much as I could. It was a great game. Well worth the play.

I didn't like FFX at all. The characters were shallow (absolutely no depth) and generic and the story was a ripoff from FF6 and FF7.

I don't know about that. I thought FFX's story was quite a departure from the previous four games. There's no real "villain" to speak of (Seymour is more of an obstacle than anything else), it was the first FF to really tackle religion, and the goal and general pacing were nothing like those of VI or VII.

Final Fantasy V is one of my favourites. The storyline is a nice mix of comedy and drama (personified by its comically evil villain) and in terms of gameplay I still maintain that it's the most fun game to play through in the series.

There aren't really any that I don't like, truth be told. As revolutionary as it was, Final Fantasy II's growth system was horribly flawed, but the game is a lot more playable on the GBA and PSP. I've also never really been much of an FFIV fan. I like the characters, but you don't even get to use all of them at the end of the game (fixed for FFIVA, removed from FFIVDS...), and there's no real growth or ability system to speak of. Characters are very one-dimensional in battle, and while the storyline's alright, I still think it's poorly presented by today's standards.

I liked FFX's Story. But C'mon one can only handle so many freaking cutscenes. Its more of a freakin movie then a game. If I wanted to watch a movie I would have went to the theaters.

Final Fantasy VIII is my top favorite one. Then FFVII is my 2nd favorite. 3rd is IX but the one I enjoyed most was 5. I enjoyed the gameplay and features of it. I didnt care for the story that much but it had great gameplay

In terms of FF games, I think that Final Fantasy... the one with the green haired magic girl (which still describes two of them xD)... umm... VI was really good. I haven't beaten it yet, but I like it a lot. Final Fantasy VII, on the other hand, is horribly overrated. It was good, but it's not as good as everyone keeps saying it is. I thought X had a decent plot, but the voices? Belch. That's hideous. And as for X-2... well... I suppose they had to keep the art guys happy...

To be slightly off topic, I'd like to point out that you never want to try Metal Gear Solid out. Good plot, but I watched an LP of the game, had a nosebleed during a cutscene (a long nosebleed, average length cutscene), came back in, and the cutscene hadn't ended yet. That's scary.
