of the more recent FF's, FFVII had the best storyline. by far. though it was worse than the japanese VII's storyline (because of a really shitty translation). On top of that, Materia kicked major ass. VIII was the most well rounded, everything about it was decent. nothing extraordinary, but still good. IX sucked big time. the story was just stupid, the battle system sucked, and i hated the characters. X was better than IX, and is tied with VIII. the only thing that sucked about X was that Tidus and Wakka were both morons.
