Game that singlehandedly caused the N64 to lose to the PlayStation and propelled Sony into their current position as the number one game company in sales. While most said that cartridges cost Nintendo the battle it wouldn't have stopped the FF fanboys from buying the hell out of FF7 if it came out on N64 (look how fast Super Mario 64 sold in Japan when it came out despite the $100 price tag it carried) It was a good game, though.
If Final Fantasy 7 came out for the N64 instead of the PS1 then the PS2 and X-Box wouldn't exist today and Sega would still make their own systems. Before Square announced that FF7 was PS exclusive even the Saturn was outselling it in Japan (which was being outsold by the N64 with only three games avalible at the time).

The first game in the Final Fantasy series to leaved the Nintendo console and the creation of "cut-scenes" (scenes where heavy computer graphics help embellish the story-line). This book is also inside of the Guiness Book of World records for its incredible sales.
Many people call this game over-rated. It's not over-rated, people are just sick of hearing how good it is or just rebels with a cause to start frivolous arguments. If people come past that they'll acknowledge how the side quests (adventures the party goes on that isn't a requirement of completing the game) really help garnish the story. In order to know the ENTIRE story, the side quests must be completed. Though the side quests are nearly infinite, it's a fantastic way for Final Fantasy gamers to know the entire history behind EACH character. This is rare in RPGs since the minority party members are usually in the background and nothing to help embellish their character.
Final Fantasy VII is arguibly the best game in it's class. Paying attention to the story-line and not negative comments on this will tell you this.

A subject of controversy between "old-school" and more recent FF fans. Those who started with FF7 almost invariably say that it is the best one in the series, while those who have played the earlier games mostly think that while FMV scenes and improved graphics are nice, they don't make the game. This latter group tends to consider FF7 to be, while good, highly overrated.

A very popular video game that is unfortunately overrated by fanboys and fangirls alike. They obsess over the game like it's a gift from heaven or something when they don't realize that it is infact, just a game like Mario or Zelda and nothing to get excited about. They think Sephiroth is god and have delusions that he is in fact real and will come to fuck them in the ass.
Stupid fangirl: Oh Sephiroth I want your big cock in my mouth.
Intelligent individual: Sephiroth has no cock. People who wield long ass swords have no cock.
Stupid fanboy: OmG THy R lYk RemAKiNg FInAl FaNTasY 7!!!!!
Me: Nobody gives a shit.

Final Fantasy 7 is one of the most overrated games of all time. While overrated, Final Fantasy 7 is an extremely solid RPG, however, the fan base has made the game out to be FAR MORE than it actually is.
Also see: Dragonforce
This game follows the Adventures of a couple of kids as they set out to take down a evil corporation as well as a very Emo main villain. This game got so many stupid fanboys to have organisms, that a movie was made by Square called Advent Children. This movie, as you can probably guess, is also extremely overrated, the difference is that the movie isn't even any good.

Sorry, but no, Final Fantasy 6 is not a better game than Final Fantasy 7. The only reason people call FF7 "shit" compared to FF6 is because these people played FF6 when it was STATE OF THE ART and now that ANY game released these days has better graphics than FF6, they can't come to terms with it so they have to bash the next game in the series, which happens to be FF7. To all you "old school" Final Fantasy fanboys/fangirls: get the fuck over yourselves. No one fucking cares if you think FF7 is shit, because the people who know the truth are the ones who still play the game and don't give a shit about what you people think. Just because you like anime and other Japanese culture doesn't mean you have to hate everyone else because they like it too. Get the fuck over yourselves.
Anyone who says FF6 is better than FF7 obviously can't accept the fact that YES, we have moved on from 48*48 sprites!

1.A game famous for setting a new standard for all 32-bit games. It's graphics rival even the 64-bit Nintendo 64 graphics and it's storyline can't be beat. It has everything a great game should have, explosions, death, crazy bad-guys, chocobos and evil corporations.
2. The game that turned Square into an evil corporation (see Square, the evil corporation)
