VII is the best. I only found out afterwards that it was so popular. I watched my brother play it as a 7 year old and Id run like crazy to the lounge whenever Id hear him turn on the ps1. I was glued to it and I wasn't even sure why. I've played FFVII 38 times ever since. It is the best game ever made still to this day. Yeah there are hardcore FFVII fans out there but how can you not be with such a masterpiece. What was supposed to be just a game delivered so much more. I've said it a gazillion times before and I'll never get tired of it. FFVII= BEST.GAME.EVER.
