XII, easily. It's not even close. X had a pretty good premise, but that was ruined by being a very linear game and some of the worst characters in the series. Characters with the emotional maturity and awkwardness of a 10 year old girl (laughing scene, I'm looking at you).
XII brought back a fully explorable world and had a much more "serious" cast of characters, with much less anime-isms. And the music was definitely on another level compared to X. And I love the combat. Felt like a Baldurs Gate or Knights of the old Republic kind of system, but more customizable.
FFX, along with FFVIII and FFXIII is on the bottom of the pile when it comes to the series for me. And I was on board since the original on the NES. FFXII was such a breath of fresh air compared to the two lackluster titles it's sandwiched between.
