    Default Is This Thee RPG?

    As far as im concerned, the Final Fantasy series is the ultimate RPG series ever. Period.

    Can you think of another RPG series that beats FF?

    Well, Golden Sun and Golden Sun II: The lost age for the GBA beat some FF's, but not all of them.
    Those two games are just fantastic, to be GBA games, such great music, gfx and storyline. Character development isn't really there but it doesn't feel like needed.

    Then again, this whole question comes down on Personal opinion again, so yeah...

    I say Xenosaga series beats FF, and its only going to be 3 games, 4 if you count pied piper or something.

    Also wild arms 2 and 4 almost beat it out.

    Did you at least try some other RPG? FF is really good but you miss some other really goods games if you only play FF.

    My 3 favorites RPG are FF titles but the other RPGs are better than the other FFs. XenoSaga, Tales, Mana (I only liked Secret of Mana but well... this game rock!) are better than most of FF games, but not all.

    As far as I know, FF have the most sales among all RPG.
    Other than FF, I think Tales and Suikoden.

    IMO, Final Fantasy is the best series ever. It could be argued by some fans though of RPG's that Dragon Quest/Warrior is a top candidate for the RPG dominator, but personally, I have to go with the FF's. No doubt in my mind.

    well, any Final Fantasy game can be overwhelmed by another game from a different title. but why are the ancient classics being robbed of their glory??? Final Fantasy is the precursor/mother of Role-Playing games. respect the elderly...

    EDIT: alright then, slash off precursor and replace with legacy. Dragon Quest may be older, but i believe that Final Fantasy is the most influential.

    Final Fantasy has several very strong titles, and given the amount of Final Fantasy games in existence, you could say it wins on sheer volume. However, there are many other great RPGs that are not Final Fantasy, certainly many that trump even the greatest of the Final Fantasy series. If you're going by series, yes, Final Fantasy wins, again, just due to the sheer volume and quality. But overall, there are many RPGs that are just better than what any Final Fantasy has to offer.

    Oh, and as I recall Dragon Quest came before Final Fantasy, so Final Fantasy is not the precursor to other RPGs.

    Dragon Quest always sells much better in Japan.

    Final Fantasy always sells much better in America.

    tri-Ace games, Tales series, and Dragon Quest can beat FF anyday, I'd say. That doesn't mean FF doesn't hold a place in my heart, it just means I don't think it's the ultiimate RPG series.

    Zidane: I think Final Fantasy is the superior series myself. With Star Ocean and Chrono Trigger tied for second.
