6 for me! imo the story and the caracters are better.

FF7 is a awesome game no doubt but it started some trends that are hurting FF franchise right now like the j-pop/animeish caracter design.

I like animes don't get me wrong but it feels weird when a realistic 3D character try to do anime gestures or behaving like one.I was playing MGS3 and gosh the cutscenes are cheesy thanks to that.

So I guess what you don't like is that the graphics evolved ?

It's not the graphics that bothers me is more like the design.Characters are loking more and more like j-rock singers and the behavior.... it's like i'm watching an anime but with 3D realistic characters which,in my opinion,looks/feels cheesy.FF7 started this trend(probably because before that the games were 2D though)

I have a problem with this "japanese-ish" behavior when not inside an anime or anime-ish game like atelier rorona/ni no kuni.It just don't feel natural to me.

That's kind of why I posted the pictures, the character design of the two characters of VI and XIII share a lot of similarities, I was trying to say that the philosophy behind the designs didn't change, only the graphics have evolved a great deal which seem to be what bothers you for some reason.

I disagree with you, but I understand your point.

FINAL FANTASY X, MOTHERFUCKERS. Best in the series. Anyway, out of the 2 options given... probably 7. I love the dated graphics of the PS/64 era. 6 was 'aight. People tend to overhype it so when I played it I was like: "This is supposed to be the best FF?" XD I feel meh about 6. So 7 all the way!

Easily Final Fantasy VI, one of the best games I ever played. Never understood the hype for VII, it's not bad but it's just an alright game to me. This would be more interesting if it was VI vs. IX.

Yay! I'm back!

To stay on topic, that poll has very few votes in GameFAQs. Back when it was 50,000 plus people in the tournaments, FF7 would be winning quite easily.

But alas GameFAQs has turned into a cesspool and people have been abandoning ship.

FF VI easily. The bad guy actually destroys the world, ascends and your ragtag group has to put the pieces back together... somehow. You could of course choose not to do so since it was not linear at all, and could do your own thing and take that clown down! Also, that moment when you are officially powerful enough to take down a Guardian Tank... YESSS!

Awesome game!

I know it's not the same as when they have the actual contests, but it's still pretty decent for a normal daily poll!

And 6 took the victory with a very slim margin!
