Any Final Fantasy Fans out there?

any Final Fantasy Fans out here? myself is a huge fan of the FF Series absolutely Final Fantasy 7 and 10 for the story line and the Materia and Sphere Grid Ways of improving your characters, think its amazing, yeh them 2 games are like 10+ Years old but still i have my PS2 with FFX and FFX-2 gotta love em . lets see what eveeryone elses favourite FF Series is and what made you sway more towards that game

Final Fantasy VII was the first Final fantasy and first RPG I played and is my favourite by quite some margin. The materia system was really easy to learn and once you got the hang of it you could come up with some fantastic buffing combos to dish out serious damage. The story had me completely hooked and it's still the RPG I judge all other RPGs on. All the characters were great and had their own stories playing out alongside the main story, the villain is the best bad guy ever and a real badass. I think I've completed it about a dozen times so I've probably spent around 1000 hours playing it and I don't regret a single second of that   .
My second favourite is FF IX, I enjoyed the story and the way you learned new skills from equipment was cool and they took it back to earlier Final Fantasy's in essentially giving each character a specific battle role.
FF VIII was quite complicated with its junction system and I never really engaged with the story.
X was cool, voice acting for the first time was a welcome addition (although I did find Tidus annoying). X-2 was alright, and I only rushed through XII since it was released on PS2 after Xbox360 was released. I also got the HD remasters of X and X-2 on Vita but haven't played them again yet.
XIII was extremely linear but still had an interesting story, upgrade system was an improvement on the sphere grid but the combat was made quite easy since it was largely done automatically for you.
I'm still undecided about XIII-2, I did like the fact you could tame monsters and train them so you could have them act as a 3rd member of your party.
I've not played Lightning Returns yet, might start it this week since you've got me reminiscing about Final Fantasy
I've got all the earlier games on my PSP (except for 3 which was on Nintendo DS) and have gone back and played 1, 2 and 3 and will get round to playing the rest someday.

my Self i dont like X-2 my favourite is Final Fantasy 10 as the Blitzball Game is just insane and the whole Story Line and Side Quests just gets me hooked and the Sphere Grid System is just amazing Final Fantasy 13 its okay just dont like it much in my opinion i think they kinda lost there way after 10 but thats just me.

I'd definitely agree about them losing their way after 10. If I were to recommend 3 Final Fantasy games to someone that's never played one I'd recommend 7, 9 and 10.

see mine are different there i think 8 is better then 9, with 8 they just improved the graphics of 7 with different characters and awsome Limit Break Moves dunno the correct term for 8, but with 9 they went more cartoonie and it kind of annoyed me but apart from other 2 i cant disagree at all top man Paul top man

Played them all from FFXIII and 10 is still my all time favourite, recently purchased the HD remaster and it looks great, was hooked on 13 for a while but went back to 10 lol

im up at this time and you dont understand how tempted i am to play Final Fantasy 10 but i know ill be hooked im only at Mt Gagazet atm haha i started again a few weeks ago

just to show my love for FFX heres a signature

I may play it when I finish work this morning lol

Time to pull out the good old PS2 and get back to where i left off at Mt Gagazet, we can also share stuff on here if you guys would like

i better start playing it then lol only just started on the remaster, been swallowed by SIN, but sharing stuff on here would be cool!

yeh man defo quick tip when you battle sin on the Ship W.W Someit just kill the 3 Creatures over and over easy way of AP when ur bored kill Sins Fin

Good stuff, will do that, the save on my ps2 was great, nearly finished it but went to get all the Guardians, there is so much of it, could never get the dark Guardians lol

im just rushing through it for now just wnana remember the story line then imma grind it and get everything

I made that mistake twice, so gonna take my time this time n grind and get as much as I can!

i mite actually start it again yano then we can help each other our more i guess

Only played FF7. LOVED IT ALL!!!

easily the best melody in any final fantasy

Not Wrong there LoneWolf not wrong there matey , btw if ur still at Besaid Island go back 2 the village after u leave with lulu Wakka,Kimahri and yuna and speak to the Item Woman in the first hutch to the left and then go to the top right hutch and speak to the dog to get Valefores New OD called Energy Blast

Crap!!! I just got to kilika island (dunno how to spell it) pretty sure you can go back when you control the airship, but farmed on the ship, got some decent AP!!

you can actually go back after Luca i believe dude

Nice one :-) made my way to mushroom rock road, took over 6hs lol!!!

ahhhh, FFX! my first FF title, and still play it on occasion. i also bought the HD Remaster for my Vita. But last i played it, i had saved just before the Seymour fight on Mount Gagazet. my last full run on the ps2 title (us edition obv considering where i'm located), i had level grinded to the point where Yuna had traversed through all arcs of the Sphere Grid before i reached the final Save Sphere. needless to say, that final battle with Yu Yevon was cakewalk. lol

I have yet to complete it, so got the remaster for ps3 and just gonna work right through it, its worth the time and effort lol buy wouldn't think there would be much difference between US version and European, but you never know with these games!
