How would you rate the numbered final fantasies?

This is a kind of poll, although i can't really format it that way. Basically, you just put down the nu,bers of the 12 final fantasies so far in order of preference. If you have yet to play one, put it last. If you have yet to play several, put them last, but maybe judge them on what you do know eg if you hated ff5' job systme, ff3 may not be your best choice. You do not have to have played them all the way through, a few bosses is usually enough to get a good grasp. Also, bear in mind this is a trump sytem, so if you notice that one you like is really far down, don't worry

havnt played 1,2,3.....well i have, but cudnt be arsed to play them for over 10 minutes
 
Haven't played II,X, X-2, XI or XII yet, so they don't count for me.

1- IX
2- VII
3- IV
4- III
5- VI
6- V
7- VIII
8- I
(I actually haven't played I that far, so that's why it was last)
 
I will only list ones I have completed. I have played all of them, but only these are completed:

1. FF VIII
2. FF X
3. FF XII
4. FF VII
5. FF IX
6. FF X-2

First 4 are very close to each other. FF VIII is maybe best, because it was first one I bought. XII would be best if there wasn't so many bad sides in it. Maybe overall best would be FFX, just because of best battle system etc.. FF IX and VII are very good also, I just haven't played these in years so their superioriness isn't so overwhelming. FF X-2 instead, is far below other ones. I don't know why, it just doesn't feel good.

1. FFVI
2. FFIX
3. FFVII
4. FFX (X-2 included, I still don't see why people hated it...)
5. FFXII (To be honest, this is actually tied with X... just it had less charm :\)
6. FFVIII
6. FFIV
7. FFV <-- nothing can describe how much I did not like this game.

Ones I have not played: FFI-III and XI

Think that all you want. But i'm sure you'll end up being the one to lose if someone actually cared enough to argue ^_~ (i mean, people are just as sick of arguing with haters as they are with fanboys).

1) FF8
2) FF7
3) FF10
4) FF10-2
5) FF12
6) FF4
7) FF1
8) FF2
9) FF9 (Hate)
10) FF6 (double hate)
11) FF5
12) FF11 (Does this HONESTLY count?)

The only one I havent played is 3. I need to get a DS someday...

EDIT: I would have also included FFX-2 up there, but I stuck with the main numbered series. X-2 was an awesome game, I dont care what anyone says!

EDIT 2: Eh, might as well put FF10-2 up there anyways.
 
Wow. What's with the FFXII haters? It was the best game in the series (Despite the fact that Vaan looked like a girl and Penelo had pigtails.)


1.FFXII
2.FFIX
3.FFX-2
4.FF3 (The DS one, not the SNES NA one)
5.FFX (This is only as high as it is because the music was awesome.)
6.FFXI (I don't play anymore, so don't ask)
7.FFVI (I think this is the one....it's the one with Terra, right?)
8.FFIV (Again, I dunno about this one, but this one is the one with Cecil and Kain, right?)
9.FFVIII
10.FFVII



Haven't been arsed to play FF1 or 2. I tried Dawn of Souls, but it bored me to the point where I simply couldn't play anymore.
 
1.FF1 (the original damnit not the remake, that game actually had difficulty [unlike largely every other final fantasy game])
2.FFX
3.FFVII (I realize it's not very good and far from the greatest thing since sliced bread. Does that mean I can't like it? If it does, kindly go kill yourself in a corner because it's been debated too much already)
4.FFXII
5.FFV
6.FFVI
7.FFII
8.FFVIII

And I haven't played:

8.FFIII
9.FFIV

And yet I still have the feeling they'd easily beat 8, just because 8's story was the most godawful piece of garbage I've seen in many a year.

EDIT: also note the only ones of these I actually really like are the top three. The other ones I played (mostly through) for some sick sense of 'they're supposed to be good...' (and was pretty disssapointed in most cases)
 
VII ruined the series. Don't argue. You'll lose.

If it was so horrible, why was it voted "World's #1 Game" for 9 years in a row, I wonder? If that was an opinion, you should've said so in a non-sadistic manner rather than flaming it, as well as its fans.
 
He didn't say it was the horrible. He said it ruined the series. The way it ruined the series is that all these spinoffs. He wasn't flaming, I don't think, either. I don't like it much because it was number 1. I kinda liked it when they all were "FFs are cool" insted of "FF7 is the best."

I love how pretty much everyone who says that never gives any real reasoning except that it's overrated (Which it is, but that doesn't make it horrible). I'm eager to hear exactly how it ruined the series.
