Final Fantasy IX
Each piece of equipment had one or more abilities that you could learn and keep for your character after a certain amount of experience in battle had been attained.
Also, the chocobo side game where you had to explore the world and find treasures while riding on them was the best one yet in a FF game.
This game truly has a special place in my heart. Loved it to bits. And Vivi is a sweet little thing. xD
Edit:
FF IV remake - Fun and cute, but ultimately obsolete. The dialogue is unsophisticated. I know, I know, it's an old game made prettier, but still, I need juice!
FF VI remake wanted.
FF VII - Well, it doesn't feel as special to me as to so many people, but the materia system was kind of fun.
FF VIII - Great story, characters, soundtrack, summons... Horrible battle system. Absorbing spells from mobs so you can use them yourself? Go die in a fire Squaresoft!
FF X - Turn based battles done well. Spira was a beautiful world to explore.
FF XII - Finished this one this week, even though I've had it since european release. Incredibly boring battle system, I must've felt a masochist to clock in 119 hours of gameplaying.
FF XIII - See you in late 2010, bitch.
