Thanks! Sure I'll tell you why i love FFVII and why its the best FF i played and 1st on my list.
I was a kid around 14 years old and i got FFVII second hand from a pawn shop, my mother bought it for me on my b'day, FFVII was expensive that time but she managed to get me a very good quality copy of it.
I played it for the first time thinking what kind of game this is? I read the back case of the game and it had an interesting story to it so i was like cool! must be an action game.
Anyway i started the game up and an awesome FMV sequence popped up and i started going through the first mission and i really liked how this played out and the battle system was easy and cool to play/watch.
After sometime the characters,story,music,gameplay and fmv sequences got me HOOKED! to the game that got me very addicted and i wanted tomorrow to come quickly so i could continue to play through! i really was connected to the game and this was the first time i played an RPG Game, i didn't even know it was called an RPG Game until later lol.
I just felt in love with it every time i reached a new destination and went through the cool battles and storyline it has become one of my first and favorite RPG games of all time.
That's my story that i can remember, thanks for reading.
And the rest of the grim stuff hehe 
definitely love the to see communities having more discussions relating to FFVII to seek out common grounds around since this is probably my most favourite one out of the series...since..nostalgia.
