Well seeing how I was too young to really understand 7 at the time it came out but what I grew up with was 8,9 and 10. I enjoyed 8 a lot but 10 was a personal favorite. Number 9 was a solid game too but not much people liked that one for some reason. I currently have the new one that came out in Japan (FF13-2) which is really enjoyable to place, especially in full Japanese. I plan to get the older ones in full Japanese(I have 8 in Japanese at the moment and another rpg that I got from the JPN PSN). I have FF13,FF13-2,FF8,Star Ocean 4 and they are all in JP.

Tactics was my favorite.

7 is my favorite.

Tactics and 10 are tied behind it.

And behind them are 4, 6, and 8, all about even.

I'm one of the 9 haters, haha.

Best: 9
Worst: 8
Most Overrated: 7

It goes like this.

for me, in order: 6,4,1,3,8,7,10


worst is 2.
i don't know how you can say 2 is better than anything.

also this is a japanese forum so i just want to say lol 11 JP ONRY

10, 11, tactics/12, dissidia, 13/9, crisis core, 7/4/6, 8, 5 in order.

I started playing FF's when 1 first came out on the NES; I've beaten 1-4, 6-9, X-2, and I've played 5, X, and 12. (I'm not counting Tactics, which is a great game)

Based on that my favorites are 1, 9, and X-2.  Unusual choice, but hey.

I like these kind of topics >_>

I havent played all of the main series yet, though Im close to doing so (needing only to beat the II, V and finally the XIII that I recently bought... oh and the XIII-2 that is still fresh).

I like all of them as well, though I have some favorites too.
Story: VIII and X
VIII's story is so great that I can still remember it now, together with funny events, "007" missions, student life, romance and everything else that fits together so well making it a very fun story, imo.

Gameplay: X-2 followed by XII
X-2 has the best gameplay from all FFs that I have played, the job system while too much "sailor moonish" is very funny and addictive, though the story is worse than XII.

XII is great too, but only shines in the international version where you can speed things up together with the zodiac classes and all gambits available since near the start.

8 holds a special place for me. It's been so long that I've played it, it's probably rose-colored nostalgia glasses that I'm looking through, but I loved it.

Then 6. First one I played through in Japanese. I really liked it though.

4. Also a long time ago, so I don't really remember the details, but I remember really liking it.

10. It was really good, but I don't remember the story engaging me as much as the other ones.

5. Currently playing it, but it's not very emotionally engaging to me. The job system is really fun, and the story is OK, but I can't really put it higher than this.

1. Just a fun start to the series. I could really tell that the game was dated when I played it, which knocks it a little bit. Thank god for the turbo button on my emulator.

7. I probably would have liked it better if I didn't know the entire story before starting it.

And that's all I can remember playing. The order of this list would probably change if you asked me tomorrow, because it's kind of hard to think back and rate them fairly.

Final Fantasy 8's card game ftw. ^^

I tend to never finish RPG, but I got the furthest in FFX (to the last boss, but was thoroughly bored by that point and only tried fighting it once).

I have no time to play videogames anymore, but maybe I'd give the RPGs a shot again if they were ported to iOS (some of the early ones have been remade).

FF6 for me. Most comprehensive FF in terms of items list and esper history. The others are good too.

FF13 i dont like too much because if you just keep going straight... you will beat the game.
