Favorite FF/FF character

This is one of the biggest gaming debates I've ever come across and I don't doubt that there will be much diversity in this forum...
The question is which was your favorite final fantasy (not including crystal chronicals or the like and not ff11, the ff movie) from ff 1 to 10-2.
I'd also like to give Kingdom Hearts a mention, as it isn't a final fantasy but it has some of the charaters in it, and it's a pretty good game...

... and if you want then who is your favorite ff character of all time as well?

ok, too many poll options so I cut out from ff1 to 5, if you really like one of them then just say so

FF2 is hands-down the best FF game I've ever played.

Wait, why would you do that, when you could cut out from ff8 to ff10-2?

Definatly Final Fantasy Tactics. Granted I've only played that, FFTA, and Cristal Cronicals.

You should of added Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross because as everyone knows THEY ARE THE BEST EVER!!! :D :D

Although not many people like Chrono Cross that much. I wonder why that is?

Out of the Final Fantasies. Final Fantasy VII would be the best.

Why?

But don't say that I suck. Because I HAVE finished it. I just play it for the hell of it.
> It had good graphics for it's time.
> Sound is good too :)

But you know what is really weird?

its the small differences.

take the PC version for instance.

the graphics are much smoother than the PS version but the sound is in MIDI format and doesn't sound as good as it does in the PS version.

WOW IMPOSSIBLE. WE DID KNOW THAT WAS YOUR OPINION OF FINAL FANTASY. MAYBE IT COULD BE THAT YOU MAKE THAT COMMENT EVERY SINGLE TIME FINAL FANTASY IS BROUGHT UP.

Alright, on topic. I'd have to say FF6. It's the one I was brought up playing, so maybe I just have a natural affinity for it, but playing the others, I still think it's a notch above the rest.

...and I do have the PC version of FF7. The MIDI is really disappointing, and there are quite a few game-crashing bugs, but otherwise it's a perfect port.

From what I've heard and the results so far, ff7 is the best as in storyline and overall. and generally people always seem to say ff7 is the best.
I'm the moron who voted for ff8 but before you beat me mercilessly, consider this:
1) I havnt played ff7, and I thought ff9 was too animated
2) Squall is my favorite character and out of all the characters I've seen his personality is the one that matches me the most.
3) I rule at ff8.

.. and can anyone verify that in ff8 if you have the all materials to upgrade a weapon, you DON'T need the magazine which tells you which materials you need in order to upgrade your weapon! Because CJ doesn't believe that I got the Lionheart on the first disk.

Don't give me that shit. Do people have fun while playing it? Yes. Why? Because it has an amazing story and cast of characters. There is nothing wrong with the plot carrying the game. You play the Way, don't you?

Final Fantasy 8 had some major problem that i couldnt stand. After you get Lionheart, everything else is useless. Really why wouldnt you just use aura to let you use your limit break and then just BAM LIONHEART 200 000 damage? It makes evrything stupid. It goes for limit break limits
9999
9999
9999
199980 :shock:
Where is the fun in that? It should at least be like
999
9999
99999
20 hits of 9999 making 199980

Um another thing was how slow garden was, And when you had to find the white seed ship, it made me want to ounch my ps and take my Katana and stuff it in my tv...... :P

well in order... I played; ff9 then ff8 then ff4 and ff5 similtaniously, then ff6, then ff10 and I've played a bit of ff10-2 but I just don't like it.

ff9 was too animated, but it was good, I think Vivi is my second favorite person (well.. thing) and I liked using 4 characters in battle. ff4 and 5 where too dogey, and I know thats no reason to not like a game if it has a good storyline, but I just didnt like them that much, too simple. FF 10 was good but I really think that their 'overdrive' abilities could have been a bit more impressive, ff10-2 was just too... well... *shrug*.
ff8 is pretty bad as in storyline, but it is the only one that I absolutle axed at, in fact, if you train up to around lvl 75 before you leave for deling city, the rest of the game is no challenge.

well, I change my mind... ff9 would be my fave (I like the idea of you know... changing, going 'Super Saiyan' if you will) but trance takes to long to achieve.... cant wait to get ff7... in Kingdom Hearts Cloud is quite kick ass and cool.
