My choice wold be Final Fantasy 7. The game that hooked me the first tme I played it.

Final Fantasy IX was so damn good. Can't ever forget the first day I played it... *deep sigh*

Nothing beats FF9!

Final Fantasy VIII, I played all of the earlier games when I was younger (I started with VI) and after forgetting that I had played them I saw an article in a Japanese magazine and saw Sir Seifer talking to Fujin and Raijin Kazema and that hooked me back in and I remembered about the other Final Fantasies and every time I play VIII it's like I'm reliving the first time I ever played a Final Fantasy game.

FFVII and FFIX.The characters look like chibis.I think that's what I loved most plus the good story.
