The FF games that are between a 9.8 - 10.0 scale for me:
1. FINAL FAMTASY VI
The best music, best characters & best setting in a Final Fantasy game & it had kefka. This game was so amazing, such memorable scenes including the opera scene, ghost train & so on
2. FINAL FANTASY X
Fantastic music, tragic story, lovable characters, the best battle theme in a final Fantasy & path breaking graphics for its time. FFX was an RPG marvel at its time!
The FF games that are on a 9.4 - 9.79 Scale for me:
3. FINAL FANTASY IV
Played it recently on the DS & LOVED the game, everything from the setting to the fantastic music.
4. FINAL FANTASY VII
Like it or now, this game CHANGED EVERYTHING....games like it don't come very often, FF7 is a legend. And there's a good reason for that, the game is fantastic, the characters are very memorable, the story stays gripping in most of it. Some side stories like Red XIII's fathers story & so on are very cool and touching. The music is fabulous. {aeriths theme}
5. FINAL FANTASY IX
Nice game, reminds you of all the old FF's. At the time I didn't like it too much, but it has grown on me. Despite that even at the time it was a fantastic game, I just didn't like it as much as FF8 or FF7.....but as it grew one me, eventually I liked it more than FF8
