it had the most unexpected and completely stellar ending ever.... i hope others will agree.... later

<font color=#ff69b4>FF9 was really good! They have many good FMV's and the ending was surprising as well. But I dont think FF9 is the best.

Yeah FF9 rocks!!! Let it live on until FFX storms the world.

It's one of the best games I've ever played, though I still think FF7 is the champion:D

What he said...^^^^

yea 7 just didnt have the great ending that it could have, it was actually too sad...later

Sad what are you talking about ff7 didn't have a sad ending a sad ending would have been meteor destroying the world


FF9 had a good ending if you sat through the whole thing (dang 30 minute ending)

I know nobody who turned off in the middle of it. *lol*
No, I think FF9 was one of my greatest gaming experiences ever. I expected nothing at all, sceptic because of the character design, but I loved every second of the game, I loved the characters, I think the game was beautiful... It had so many surprises. Heh, I did not expect anything, not even the mere existence of a worthy opponent, and then I got such a GREAT person like Kuja! it was too good to be true!

Yeah!

ff9 was a really good game and the ending was cool a little predictable but still cool. I wouldn't say the best game ever because of ff7 and maybe a few others but it was a good game

I have to agree, 9 had my favorite ending. I love those long half-hour endings, I liked FF8s ending too. But as far as the game goes, I have to say it had the most boring battle systems which made this a beat it and leave it game for me. I go back time to time, but it aint no FF7 or 10.

eh, its a good game, but not great

One of a kind, AND really enjoyable! I loved it. Dunno if it is the best one, but almost...:D It has everything in it. almoust.. .. ..

Final Fantasy IX was better than VIII, but not as strong as VII in my opinion. The ending was fantastic and very strong, it even had me close to tears on the first viewing (I know, sad, isn't it?)

I've always gone back to play through the game once more after I've completed it. I played through Final Fantasy VII countless times to get all of the ultimate limits, summons and weapons on each character (including Aeris.) Final Fantasy VIII I went through three times, collecting all of the GFs and getting all characters limit breaks, and trying to get as many cards as possible.

With Final Fantasy IX, I just don't have the motivation to get back into the game. I'm near the end of the first disk (have just obtained Quina.) That was around four months ago...

For that reason alone, I stand by Final Fantasy VII as the better game of the three.

I hated the ending of FFIX. Especially as i sat through it 2 times because my playstation crashed during the end FMV, the 2nd time it crashed too so i never bothered to try again. It crashed when the crowd stands up and zidane is hugging garnet.

FF8 had the best ending for me, FF7 gave me the best pleasure but yes FFIX melted my heart at those clever word sequences at the end, they were more emotional than any of the end clips for me

Bahumut same goes for me, FF7 was what got me into RPGs, i love it and completed it at least 7 times through.

FF8 i would say is a great game, good story and i love the end, but i only went through it once, i tried going through it a second time but no motivation to get past the prison cell.

FF9 has a strong story, i love zidanes character, but i find that ff9 is just story, the limit method is poor, and replay value not so good. I only completed the game once and didnt do any sub-quests, beating the hard boss (alternative for omega i forget his name) whereas ff8 and 7 i did everything

FF7 - 9 and a half/10
FF8 - 9/10
FF9 - 8/10
