I think FFVII is a bit overestimated. The Materia system was fairly alright but slightly tedious IMHO (I prefer the systems used in VI, IX and X). The story was pretty alright, as were the battles and all but... I don't know. I think the game is a 10 throughout Midgar. I loved the Chocobo Farm, too, but the whole Nibelheim flashback of K. Kalm was a bit annoying. After Midgar, FFVII went down to an 8.

I preferred the story of FFVIII. Unfortunately, FFVIII goes down to an 8 because of this whole "oops it's the Sorceress doing all the trouble, no oops wrong Sorceress, it's not Edea it's Adel, oh no wait, it's actually Ultimecia".

I'm thinking Crystal Chronicles had the best potential. I've always wanted an FF world where you play the game like an Action-RPG.
