I'd say Final Fantasy 7, it has a great storyline. It never gets boring, there's about 200 hours of game play, including all the side quests, and others. If you just go through the game as quickly as possible it'd still take 75-90 hours. The materia system was amazing, and I loved all the characters, except Yuffie... Although the supposed "remake" I was waiting for, for years was a failure. They even swapped out the main character, with Zach, and changed the entire battle system.

FF7 is actually a really good game. I played it when I was younger and again recently, and the story is so much deeper when you're not 12. Lol Razz.

Weird... Same here. I used to play it when I was little, so I decided a few weeks ago to get it out and play it again. I never realized until recently the story is actually VERY good, and deep as you said.

But I had to get my second disc buffered, and it worked flawlessly, and looked new. So I got to the third, I noticed it had a crack in the disc, and it worked, surprisingly. I got the gold chocobo, got KOR, and the other materias from the islands. I beat Jenova, and Savior Sephiroth, without taking damage. Then my game froze after I killed Safer Sephiroth, quite depressing... I can't finish it now. My third disc stopped working also.

sadly I too must admit and give into the cliche that FF7 is likely the best game ever made.

Of course I say this in context to its time line. For instance if you minus the Graphics and the length and detail of the game that was available because of Sony having the CD and SNES having the cartridge then i would say that Chrono Trigger by far surpasses FF7, and likewise for that same very reason I have to say that FF7 beats out FF10 which under normal circumstances FF10 is by far my favorite RPG to date taking away considerations of the time and place they where made. I will likely have to wait for the next generation console for a better rpg then FF10 as nothing that has come out for this generation has been anything but rehashed garbage with polished graphics and technically in my opinion the graphics do not even compare to ff10 and I have never in my life played a better voice acted game ever!

*EDIT*

Jay and DBC you shoudl download the new Ultima Release of the game and then apply the graphic patches to it that are available, it greatly enhances the graphics and rounds and smoothes everything out as well as updates the menu style a bit to give a more modern translucent feel to it.

I played it when it came out I must have been around 15-16 in that area and everyone on my block was absorbed with the game for a month, I remember everyone getting it and never seeing each other that entire month and we would all get on the bus and talk about it every day on the way to school. I must have played that game twenty times by now, I was hoping so much for the PS3 version to be released!

In agreement with Rhys: They'd all be pretty even, to take the title of best video game created. Although I think it'd still go FF7 > FF10 < Chrono Trigger. FF Tactics was also an incredible game, not the gameboy advance one, the original. Not to mention there's been several games based off of FF7, and a movie.

Yeah, all they're doing is focusing on graphics, and shiny art, FF7, and Chrono Trigger are perfect examples at why great graphics are not needed.

Could you send a download link or something for the Ultima Release?

I haven't played FF10, but tactics was indeed epic storyline and gameplay, it just didn't have the sidequests and stuff that FF7 did. However Chrono Trigger was also possibly the best game of it's generation. It had such limitless replayability....With each character being good for final teams, multiple storylines, lots of easter eggs...Hmm, I guess it depends on the generation Neutral. I heard the Chrono Trigger remake for DS was pretty good too.

I just remembered another great RPG, Dragon Warrior Monsters, for gameboy color. Oh... and Mario RPG.

If anyone would like a friend code to Demonoid, just ask.

I have to agree with everyone and say FF7 is the greatest game ever made though Baldur's Gate comes close. I haven't played any other FF games, mostly because there aren't any others out for PC.

You could always torrent them and use a PS1 emulator for 7-9, and then use a SNES emulator for 1-6.*

Baldur's Gate 2.

This can beat the crap out of any JRPG.

I'm more interested in the newer Final Fantasy games since the story has to be better then great for me to play a game with graphics that make my eyes bleed.

I approve illegal pirating, unless the game has no protection. I always buy games with minimal or no protection.

The stories are pretty awesome. Back in the day you HAD to make a quality game with a good storyline/gameplay because gaming wasn't so big or popular, and because they realized they did have shitty graphics. Now a days you (IMO) you won't have as good storyline or gameplay as gaming has become a lot more commercialized than it was in the 90's. It's a lot more focused on graphics, and as such, lose out on what could be put towards game play, content, storyline etc. FF 8/9 can be gotten with a PS1 emulator, so the graphics aren't bad. And if you're going to try something from the Sega generation, I would suggest starting with 6 - since 6 had a really cool method of their story.

Pretty sure Duck Hunter was for normal Nintendo.
Super Smash Brothers (Original) was better for N64 IMO.
You got a PS3, go get FF 7 & 9. (I haven't played 8 myself, but I plan on doing so over the summer...)

Agreed.

I might get a PS3, just for FF XIII.

N64- The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
PS1- Final Fantasy VII
PS2- Final Fantasy X
XBOX- Halo (They all sucked except the first)
Sega- Sonic The Hedgehog
SNES- Super Metroid, or the Super Mario Bros 3

*EDIT*
Messed up... I meant FF X for PS2, not X-2. I hated that one.
