My 3 favorites are 4, 9, and 6. I had final fantasy 4 back in the super Nintendo days when us silly Americans thought it was part 2. 6 was better, but I prefer 4 due to it being the first that I beat and all the hours I spent playing it when I was 14-15.

I love 9 and how they brought things back to the more traditional final fantasy with magic and less focus on being industrialized. While 7 awed many of us older players, we didn't get into the story as much due to it being less magic based and more industrialized. It just didn't seem like a true final fantasy for some of us.

With that being said, 7 was the one who brought the most new players to the series and could be argued that it was the most groundbreaking in the series. If you remember when it was first released, you know what I'm talking about. While the graphics were later surpassed by 8 and 9, when 7 came out, it was the most visually awesome game we ever seen. The improvements from 6 to 7 were probably the biggest increase in the series. Everything since has gradually gotten better with the graphics, but dont compare to the leap they made going from snes to the PlayStation.

Unfortunately, it seems as if they have ran the series into the ground in recent years and rely on rereleasing old versions because the new ones suck.
