oh its Xanatos hating on FF7, it must be Thursday..

Firstly Xan the games you mentioned, didnt even get a release in europe. Except IV, but that wasn't till the DS.. Why because they weren't good enough, they wouldn't sell.

But FF7 did, but why?

FF7 sold over 2 million on its first weekend of release in Japan, which prompted them to release it sooner in north america (im pretty certain this is why there were so many errors with the translation), the massive sales in both regions and im pretty sure ALL games magazine/websites labeled it one of the best games they have ever played. The graphics at the time were fucking amazing, Xan when looking at FF7 graphics you need to look further than just your character on the screen. As each and every new area you guide your character through was a work of art and the array of FMV's to give it that more oomph, each and every area felt unique...

Panzer and night of dreams, really? thats your choice for graphical superiority? a platform game and a shooter, Games not even a quart the size of FF7, games in which the devs can copy and paste their terrain over and over to fill up the world

As you can see its far superior to FF7 graphics, that is until you leave the world map and enter a town or dungeon..

Final fantasy 7 is thee highest and fastest selling final fantasy game of all time, why do you think that is Xanatos? That many people fooled into buying it?

These threads are pointless and redundant from the get go, you can't measure personal opinions so we will never find an answer to the OP's question, but if we're to base it on reviews and worldwide acclaims and success.
