Despite what people say, I loved FFXII's battle system. When people say there is no strategy, what are the Gambits for? I always made Ashe my white mage and Vaan and Basch were warriors. I never had a black mage for some reason( sorry, going off the subject :S ). Anyway I loved all the battle systems equally and don't like to compare, but I do think XII's was the most fun.

Hm. Ok I did like the FFX system. And it actually seemed as if, even though you had the option to switch characters out, the battles were still difficult. ESPECIALLY marlboros...UGH.

I really liked the junction system in FFVIII. I do admit, it made the game a little too easy...but the whole aspect of junctioning magic and GFs...that was neat. ^.^

For me, Crisis Core's battle system is doing it for me. I prefer action RPG's and Crisis Core delivers an adequate battle system that engrosses me.

XII's is my favourite. When people complain about it, it's mostly that the Gambits make it too easy, or the menu real time thing.

Well everything is optional. You don't have to use Gambits if you don't want to. You can choose to have menu on wait or active.

It was just more fast paced, and not having to sit through waiting scenes at the beginning and end of battles was heaven.

I'd say X as well.
It has the good ol turn based system, but a proper one, unlike 8 when you can be attacked whilst you are choosing what move to do.

I also like that you can switch characters during battle, it does make it a bit easier, but more fun imo

My favourite is a tie between X and XII
Despite what people said I really liked the XII system, and the turn-based system in X was awesome as well, coupled with the switching etc...
But that being said, both had slight flaws, you could burn the X system with Haste/Slow and XII was a touch too simple in some cases, but only against stuff if you were item-hunting so you went back to the inital levels once you were level 70+ (like I did/do still)...
I liked VIII's though, the junctioning system was novel, but you could take advantage of it way too easily...

FFVIII to be sure. Just liked the set up, although it could be confusing.

X-2, X, VII
I liked X-2 the best because the pace was so much fun, and everything was so silky smooth.

X was great too because you got to strategize everything 5-10-15 moves ahead and i thought was pretty cool.

and VII to me was good as well because it had everything final fantasy in it.. classic atb, summons, fire, fira, firaga Limit breaks etc.
