Im a huge FF fan. I personally feel that FF7 is much better than FF10 - and that includes the story. I really dont know why, maybe its all the nostalgia when I think about FF7 or somet?

FF7 story is not best but different with very plot twists in the second disc that can be very confusing with weird retrospectives that you simply don't know if you are dreaming, but it all gets resolve with a few big batlles before the end .

FFX characters are good but i like the FF7 one's more .

FF7 and FF10 are two very good games. In my opinion, i love FF10 but FF7 is even better. Sephiroth (The final boss) is one of the best character i've never seen in video games history. The story turn around this guy and that what make the game so fantastic.

Both stories are great and if you haven't played FFVII, then you need to play it - regardless of how good the story might be. It gets over-hyped because it was a lot of peoples' first good RPG and it was one of the first great games on the original playstation, but it's still a great game all around. IMO the FFX story is weaker than FFVII.But a story's goodness is all just opinion, so you should play it for yourself.

FFX's story is excellent, but FFVII's is awesome. I agree with Jkille about FFVII being hyper hyped, but that doesn't diminish, not even a liitle, the great story of the game. Twsists, weird scenes and a magnificent genesis (it reminds me of Evangelion's genesis, that good it is!) not to mention this haunted by the past main character and his arch-nemesis Sephirot, both one face of the same coin. They complement so well, it will explain why there is a movie about them (I just DIED when watching Advent Children, Sephirot actually apeared and fought Cloud! Not to mention Aeris and Zack). In my opinion, FF VII is the best FF game ever created in what concerns to story development... It just ... eats you! You will want to know everything abut the characters, their past and future, and I'm not talking only about CLoud; even this big fat Barret has got his own traumas, same as cloaky Vincent (wich, by the way, got his own PS2 game inspired in his adventures called "Dirge of Cerberus", not an RPG, but a shooter... a must for every FF VII fan, for there appear other FF VII character's as well, even Cait Sith, giving more greatness to FF VII universe).

I got all nostalgic now... T_T... Just get it and you'll see.

If you can't decide for yourself, why bother? You're also ten years overdue, so, I take it you want to play it because of all the buzz that surrounds it?

Anyway, luckily for me, I've enjoyed ALL the numbered FF games I've played, and FFVII has been my favorite since '97. FFX is an amazing game, story and all. Get it.

I don't think FFX's story "sux" compared to FFVII's. While I won't say it's my favorite story, it's still a great game. I never understood why people compared Final Fantasies like they were sequels to each other. No FF has anything to do with any other (despite a few exceptions like FFX and FFX-2, some others, and the fact that they share the moniker "Final Fantasy"), and therefore I think should each be looked at as an individual game. So to answer your question, yes, FFVII deserves to bought to this day because of its story. It's personally one of my favorite stories, but that doesn't mean you should exclude playing a great game like FFX, or hell, even FFVI (which is in a league of its own) ;)

One deals with some juvenile love story while trying to save the world while the other is about some soldier who does not know who the **** he really is while trying to save the world from some maniac. Go read literature instead.

If you like FF series then I totally recommend FF VII. I have played VII, IX and X, but only FFVII's story really outshines the rest (this is of course my personal opinion). Also character development in VII is great. The only downside of VII is its graphics, but you have to consider it's a PS1 game. So go ahead, I hope you enjoy VII as much as I did. 8)

Tidus was emotionally damaged by his drunken father. Which made him a bit whinny... but far from gay IMHO

Yes, yes he was. I am saying Yuna is female to prove that Tidus is not gay.

I'd say that FFVII's story is better than X's but not by much. I thoroughly enjoyed both stories.

X-2's story is just as cheesy. Why do X fanboys FAIL to see this? What you did not see is that X-2 was not dressed up in epic themes exposing the cheese that has plagued the X series.

Try out Final Fantasy VI. The story was good for its time, the villain is truly the best I have ever seen. Probably the best in the series.

Kefka is trully the sociopath, egomaniac, lusting for power-type villain, and yet he's no surnatural character : just a man with some mental trouble and really psychopathic ambitions.

And the characters are numerous. A must-try.
