i think that the best cast in ff was ff7 i mean you got barret, cloud, vincent, tifa, and all of them you can't go wrong with that

Easily VI.

It had a huge cast of characters, and it was impossible not to fall in love with pretty much all of them.

hmmm how many i've never played that one

I prefer FFIV. I was very intrigued by the love triangle between Cecil, Kain, and Rosa. Plus Rydia ages into an adult during the game, Palom and Porom turn their will to stone to save the lives of the party, and Yang sacrifices himself to save the Dwarves. It was an excellent cast.

There are 14 characters if you get them all.

Well, what do you expect from a machine that is only capable of delivering 16-bits? Have you forgotten that both FFIV and FFVI sported the same graphical capabilities? It's just that the graphics looked better with FFVI.

yeah i know it's just that i'm used to the bit more modern ones so it was a big change for me

hey ff! i like the ff9 cast the best...they're colorful and useful i like the cast of 10 too....but 9 more....

Why is it that so many FFVII fans never played VI?

Anyway, IV and VI easy had the best cast of characters, when it comes to character development and a good balance.

Although it comes close, I say:

VI: 1st

IV: 2nd

X: 3rd

IX: 4th

VII: 5th

V: 6th

I serioulsy need to get around to playing VIII

8's real cool! it was my first ff game so i have tramendous(i know thats not spelled right) respect for it...its got a good cast too!

It seems to me that almost every big FFVII fan started with that game- the fans who started on older games didn't love it as much.

I don't know why so many people haven't gone back and played the older FF games though- since they've released Anthology and Chronicles, there's really no excuse.

well i went back and played it i'm playing ff chronicles right now i'm playing ff 4 more than chrono trigger cause i'm stuck on chrono. but i'm really far on ff4

Well my first FF was 7 but my favorite turned out to be 3/6 and 9. Although I know where your coming from their, my first RPG every was Secret of Mana, and thats one of my favorite games of all time...

sorry never heard of that but my first rpg was ff7 then i played ff8 then 10 and finally ff chronicles. played a bit of ff 2 and 5

Is Zelda an RPG? If so, that was my first, then Pokemon eased me into turn-based combat, and my first FF was VIII. Squall whined way too much, and I was unimpressed with the final boss. I've only played VII, VIII, and X so I don't know how the 16-bit ones are, but I would love to try them out.

By the way, weren't FF I-VII more in the past? The whole high-tech thing with FF-X didn't do much for me. But I was mostly into VII more than the rest.

yeah squall was a bit whiny and i thought that ff 10 was a huge improvement on the ff series the graphics were great and in fmv mode the characters looked real and i noticed (weird observation) that the hair was so real as well but the ff 7 cast is still the best to me

If your still in the playstation 3D games zen, you really need to play IX, it's the second best in the series.

And when your ready for 16-bit you should play IV then VI, VI is refered to as the best.

LOF is a game I refer to as a sub rpg, like beyond good and evil, I would really like to see more of those.

hmmmm is ff9 really that good when i mention it it gets praise and glory

I've always considered Zelda to be an adventure game.

I would say Zelda was an RPG, maybe i'm wrong.

Final Fantasy 9 does have a great cast, good mixture of different characters. Great games as well. :D

I also like the cast from 4, Cecil and the gang, Palom and Porom can be annoying but its cool when they sacrifice themselves to save everyone else, and the same goes for Yang. Also great when Rydia comes back with all those summons.

I've not played 1-5...i've played from 6+ though...i liked 9 and 10 the best...though i also like 8, 7 and 10-2 as well...9 and 10 are my favorites!

The best summons...hmm...i would probebly say...8 or 7...10's were pretty good....but i like 8 and 7's the best....

It's the goodness of oldschool mixed with the goodness of newschool.

it is a very good game...it's my second fave....10's my first!

ff7 DUH! its just soooooo perfect!its closely followed by 10 coz the love beetween yuna and tidus (SPOILER)that could never happen because of tidus being a dream and all !

I think IV and IX are the best, i've played all of them except XI and didnt think VIII wasnt that great..

VII and VIII

7 is still my favorite cast

7 and 9 r my favourite's!

i've seen 9's cast it looks cool

exactly :) I liked VIII's characters, but there just weren't enough playable ones. Sure, you get to play laguna, kiros, and ward, but they never actually join you. There are about 5 or 6 characters...

The best cast in FF was in FFVII; Cloud, Tifa, Aerith, Barret, Red XII, and Sephiroth! The first five made a great team and Sephiroth was the best villian!

I also like Squall, Rinoa, Selphie, Zell, Quistis, and Irvine. Beautiful couple(Squall and Rinoa) and great team( all of the above).

Have to agree with earlier post by Ndi.
Depends when you started playing the series as to how you regard each sequel.
Personally I started at VII and always regard it as one of the best games Ive played, as with VIII. Couldnt get my teeth into IX or X though. But must get round to playing the first 6.
Best cast IMHO; Squall as main, Rinoa and Tifa as his two girls and backed up by Barret, Zell and Cid. Vincent and Irvine to fight it out for the "sniper/gunner" spot.

My thoughts exactley. I started out with FFVII and no matter what people say, it's always gonna be my favorite, so of course I'm gonna say I like the cast the best. One person once told me "FFVI will change your mind about FFVII being your favorite", it's a good Final Fantasy, but nope, it still didn't have any affect on my being FFVII as my favorite!
