Well I might be biased but I say Final Fantasy VIII which was also my first Final Fantasy game. When I first played FFVIII the graphics and FMV's blew me away. In 1999 I never knew a game console could produce something of that calibur. Personally I liked the Junction system because of how you could customize the characters. The storyline is well done but it can get dry at times. This might change though because I have my sights on the War in Ivalice. XD aka FFXII
