By the time I got FFVII FFVIII was already out, so I didn't anticipate that release at all. I got FFVIII about a year after FFVII and looked forward to all future titles.
So I guess FFIX was the first one I anticipated... However I had only a few magazine articles to go by for that. I didn't have an awful lot to follow up until the release as I hadn't got to the internet, or at least hadn't learned how to follow up on things on the internet. I don't think I used the internet much at all, and thus was cut from almost everything.
Therefore I think FFX was the first game I was able to follow closer I think. I was able to look at screenshots of the upcoming game and imagine what it would be like and dream about it a little. I wasn't able to do this much with FFIX as I hadn't been exposed to as much, I don't think.
Thinking about it... I wasn't able to dream like I did with FFX since either.. As the childhood mind died and the "ah crap, real world, will never concentrate again" mind kicked in. I look forward to games and such still, but I don't think I have the same level of anticipation as I did for FFX.
