6 is definitely one of my favorite games of all time. Of the series, definitely had the best music, and awesome characters. The bosses were total pushovers with most having around 40k health but the game itself was a landmark in that it was finally breaking away from the "excuse to just go kill a lot of monsters" that defined the genre.
7 gets a lot of hate just because its really popular, and people think its cool to hate popular things. Whatever the case, it was a solid game, and if you are expecting pulitzer prize winning stories, then video games aren't the best place to find them. Imo, most storyline bitching is kind of lame, considering how i've yet to play a game with anything close to a deep and though provoking plot.

Japanese RPGs became story book RPGs. Story cannot be ignored. Some games don't need story, but some games specifically aim to have a good story. I don't need a deep plot when playing Mario Galaxy, but I would like an RPG to have an immersing story line.
I merely saw a taste of of FFV. I didn't actually see it or play through it. My brothers did and all that I saw was that is was actually challenging. My critique with most FF games is that they were dirt easy. There was no satisfaction in playing an easy game if you could watch it and get the story. The job system in FF5 was complicated and well done. It was a shame they ever changed in future games.

Final Fantasy 5 is hard. Not as brutal as the original FF but one where you sometimes need a combination of good luck, power leveling and good strats to live. Oh and a stupid super boss hidden in a chest, in the final area far away from a save point no less.
