Have you played Final Fantasy III, V, or Tactics out of curiosity?

Played III and V, but not Tactics.

I didn't get too far beyond halfway through FFIII (DS), I wish I could play a 2D version, so it'd be better looking and play at a quicker rate. The bosses are a bit unfair in the DS version since they attack twice in one round, to compensate for smaller random encounters.

I really liked V too, but I enjoyed IV and II more. It would be my third favourite.

I've played Tactics Advance 1 and 2. The first one was decent for a while, but I wasn't too keen on it. However the second would definitely be my favourite Final Fantasy game, I just chose not to mention it because it isn't in the main series.

I just love the job system and it's probably my favorite mechanic in FF. Although FFIV kinda has it.

I like the job mechanic too, although it's mostly for the costumes and sense of discovery of unlockable abilities. Once everything is discovered it's not as much fun.

After you have unlocked everything, you can switch back to the Freelancer class and kick ass. Mixing and matching is another compenent of why it's so awesome. And it offers infinite diversity!

Freelancer was no fun until all the other jobs were mastered, since they don't gain AP, meaning it's wasted D:

Then battles just boiled down to spamming the best combinations, like dual wielding Rapid-Fire on physical attackers, and Dualcast, Time, and Summon on Mimics for magic.

Fortunately, for the main game that problem doesn't arise unless you grinded for ages. But in Advance the bonus dungeon was pretty annoying.

Final Fantasy IV is not only my favorite FF game, but one of my favorite games of all time.

The graphics of the game may be outdated, but the story, soundtrack, and gameplay make up for it and go beyond. Here is why:

Story- It has a very attention-grabbing story, with many plot-twists, and tear-jerking moments. The game helps build up your character's personality up to the point of you getting sad when they either betray you, or are killed off.

Soundtrack- Not only some of the best music for the SNES, but some of the most inspirational music ever. The Theme of Love catches the game's mood, and helps absorb the player into the story even more. Nobuo Uematsu is a genius in every sense of the word.

Gameplay- The first game to introduce ATB (Action Time Battling), and it executes it fairly well. This game also makes you do everything, which I enjoy. Want your character order, and item list to look tidy and organized? Well, do it yourself. It also has a great humor, that makes you want to talk to every person in every town. You never know if they might turn you into a frog, a pig, poison your drink, dance for you, or run away in fear. It also has a large variety of vehicles, hidden items, and a fun battling system.

FF4 is the best Final Fantasy game in my opinion, and I'm hoping other people agree with me.

A lot of people agree with you if the results of the BGE!!! Final Fantasy Side-Event are to be believed.

I'll post a link here in a bit.

I can't imagine why anyone would cry while playing FFIV...

I cried at two points that I can recall in that game.

I think Dragon Warrior is the only RPG that can make me cry.
