I'm in the same boat. I LOVED FFX, FFX-2 was good too. FF12 -- was ok, but I didn't complete it. I didn't want to, it got.... boring. Not a fan of the MMO style gameplay, the turn based system in FFX was perfect. I want a FF game that goes back to that.


Final Fantasy X had the best turn-based system, in my opinion. I liked the Sphere Grid. I, also, am not a fan of Final Fantasy XII's MMO style of gameplay. Final Fantasy VIII was, by far, my favorite Final Fantasy game. Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy IX were fantastic, and I loved Final Fantasy Tactics (the orginal one, not Advanced).

It's funny you made this thread when your favorite is VIII, considering it was the most different at the time and alienated a sizeable portion of FF fans who were introduced to the franchise with VII or were fans of the "classic" titles that came before. I guess different works then.


It's the third best selling Final Fantasy game... It's right after Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy X. Which means that my point still stands (Final Fantasy VII through Final Fantasy X it seems are the best Final Fantasy games). Just because you didn't necessarily like it, or understand it, doesn't mean that the rest of the world felt that way. I don't know where you facts come from that a sizeable portion of Final Fantasy fans were alienated when Final Fantasy VIII came out. Final Fantasy VIII has a huge fanbase. Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy IX, and Final Fantasy X are all in the top five sellers of the Final Fantasy series according to VGChartz.
