I've played both games and Baldur's Gate 2 wins hands down for me. But I did appreciate Final Fantasy 7 too. Which game was you guys' favorite?

Is this a joke? Comparing a masterpiece to an overrated piece of console trash has got to be a joke...

Final Fantasy VII is a good game, but incredibly overrated. Most characters are dull, plot becomes stupid halfway through the game and the gameplay is nothing special. Baldur's Gate 2 is better in every single way. It's a shame FFVII gets so much undeserved attention.

Technically I believe FFVII came to the PC, but it was a buggy mess if I remember right.

Even if FFVII was a good game, I can tell you the outcome of this poll on the PC games forum.

Elaborate.

We're putting one of the best RPGs in gaming history against one of the most overrated JRPGs in gaming history, what has the PC forum to do with anything?

Because technically according to the GS forum rules, this sort of stuff belongs in system wars. Yeah I'm aware that FF7 actually came out on PC eventually, but I think everybody considers it a console game.

Very true. Of course PC Gamers would vote for BG 2. FF VII only gained popularity on PSOne but not on PC. You should try posting this on General Games Discussion or System Wars. That's where we get good results. As for the vote, I really liked both games but my vote goes to FF VII. :)

FF7 would have trouble cracking my top 5 list of FF games, but i still enjoyed it far more than BG2.

My favourite RPG of all time vs an overrated JRPG (my favourite would be FFIX in the final fantasy series, or maybe FFVI)? No comparison haha baldurs gate all the way.

I didn't much care for FF7. Now if it was FF2 (FFIV), I may have to think about it. For it's time it was an awesome game on the console.

Loved Bioware's BG and NWN series.

Well that don't even deserve to get mentioned in comparison to HL2 one is a fantastic game and one is merely good.

Both BG2(easily wins imo) and ffvii are really good games, even though I'd have a lot more trouble if it were BG2 vs FFVI(not sure I could pick).

also while good FFVII was only so popular because it was many peoples first Jrpg.

By the way I have nothing against jrpg's since my favorite game so far is Skies of Arcadia: Legends.

Edit: Wow didn't notice this thread was so old. Thanks google.
