I just downloaded a PS2 emulator and would like to know which games I should play first in order to get into the series. It looks pretty fun and I'm hype for it. So if you could be so kind and tell me.

Get a ps1 and play 7. You will not regret it.

Edit. I never played any on ps2 so i cant comment on that.

Second Edit. You can buy 7 from the ps store for 5 bucks in the classics.

5 bucks?! You see how the thread says emulator? It means I can't afford shit.

I'll try to see if 7 runs on my emulator. Also, are the stories new each time or is it ongoing shit where I need to play all the games?

Different characters? I don't know much but I thought Tifa or whatever the hell her name is was in all the games.

I dont think so? and my main N**** Cloud Strife is the main character, Tifa is his women. Cant forget Sephiroth he is the best video game villain of all time.

You guys seem so educated in the way of FF, about trying 10 first, or even 12, if not go for 14 which is an MMO ;D 7 is scrub tastic if you like cloud tumor arms.

Dont play 14, you have to pay for it monthly.

All final fantasy are good except the Mmos
If you dont mind old graphics play 7,8
If not try 10 first and up.
Every final has a different story except for the sequels (ffx-2)

Only things that remain from a final to another are the chocobos , moogles and some other creatures

Each final fantasy game is a completely different game on it's own. Even the continuations like X-2 are games with different stories, fighting system, worlds, just the same characters from the original version.

Tifa is only in FF7 related things same with the other characters in that game.

Actually, FFVII and FFX/X-2 are linked because of Shinra. FFX-2 takes place maybe a hundred years before the events of FFVII. FFT, FFA, FFA2 and FXII are in the same world...

OT:

Play these in any order:

FFIII
FFIV
FFV (skip this because it sucks)
FFVI
FFVII
Skip FFVIII (because it sucks)
FFIX
FFX
FFX-2 (skip because it's garbage)
FFXI is online
FFXII
FFXIII (SKIP)

When I was young FFI came out on Nintendo. I really liked that one. FFIV blew my mind though when I first played it on Super Nintendo. Here are my favorites (Least to Most):

13. Final Fantasy III
12. Final Fantasy II
11. Final Fantasy XIII
10. Final Fantasy IX
09. Final Fantasy V
08. Final Fantasy I
07. Final Fantasy XII
06. Final Fantasy X
05. Final Fantasy IV
04. Final Fantasy Tactics
03. Final Fantasy VI
02. Final Fantasy VII
01. Final Fantasy VIII

Most people don't like FF12, but I love it. It feels like an MMORPG, but it's not. My major flaw with it was the music and linear story path. You can't navigate the map, and Nobuo Uematsu didn't do the soundtrack. The characters are a little vanilla too (literally they are white washed looking), but I like Ashe and Balthier a lot. The side quests are a lot of fun. I spent so much time building the weapons and doing the bounty quests.
