Forums - Gaming Discussion - IGN ranks Final Fantasy series

I disagree with the list but I expect everyone to do so for the most part. Each new Final Fantasy game is all new for the most part and the changes are likely to get different reactions from the fans.

1. FFIV
2. FFVI
3. FFX
4. FFIX
5. FFV

The above games are my top five but as I've seen with each post we are all over the place.

Me likesy the top 3 =)

And no FFVI is not the new FFVII, it's more like people who discovered RPGs with VII are less vocal now. VI has always been the best =)

My top 5 is similar.  Though I've never played 9.

4 vs 6 is tough for me.  I liked 6 more... however it feels like 4 was the better game objectivly.

FF4's theme of sin and repetence was much stronger held over all the characters then FF6's theme of living on in the face of trouble. 


There was some problems with Espers being too important making some of the characters pointless since their skills couldn't hold up and you could use Espers to manipulate stats freely, making them pointless except to level up for the couple times you need more then 4 people.

While FF4, everyone had a very set role and mostly were all useful.  Except Edward... never figured out what he was good for.



FFVI stays overrated I see. :)

I'd actually put "desperate" as the reason FF7 was ahead of FF4.

 

In the past back when IGN wasn't "desperate"  both FF4 and FF6 were considered better then FF7.

With good reason.
