Even though it has FF characters, Kingdom Hearts is much beter than any of the ENGLISH final fantasies. I say English cause FF13 is about to come out in Japan. Got that memorizied? (hehe axel....)

Errm... No it's not. FFXIII doesen't even have a release date yet. If anything it may come out late 2007 or early 2008 in Japan, but it's no where close to being released in Japan, or anywhere for that matter.And in response to the question, yes, there are an infinite number of RPG's that are better then the Final Fantasy games, such asSkies of Arcadia Legends, Chrono Trigger, The Tales series, Summon Night, Xenosaga, and Dragon Quest to name of a few.All of these games I find to be leaps and bounds better than the Final Fantasy games. Skies of Arcadia Legends in particular trumps Final Fantasy in every way, shape, and form.But this is a completly opinionated topic, so everything I've said is just my views of the subject. Don't get me wrong, I like Final Fantasy, but there are a lot more RPG's out there then just the twelve Final Fantasy titles, and many of them are a lot better.

FF is one of the best.Just think that Dyansty Warriors beat it.(I think its a RPG...)

Well, Dynasty Warriors do have some rpg elements ,but its genre has to be fighting with little rpg elements.I hate Kingdom Hearts series ,but I am probably agree that KH series can match FF series.

Kingdom hearts will defenitely be better then someof the ffs.but you know there always should be one series at the top and thats the final fantasies.Kingdom hearts has pretty good gameplay, and really good voice actors, and story.Its less serious then FFs though. less romance, no crazy experiments.the bossses in Kh2 are also goofier looking, i find that better

I think Guardian's Crusader is somewhat decent game ,but it won't be good as any rpgs. Oh, if you like garphic ,so Dragon Warrior IV (NES), Growlanser series (PSX1/2), Genghis Khan II (Genesis), or few games that have best garphic.

I like Final Fantasy in general but i feel it depens on story and gameplay and how they are use a Final Fantasy is on top in the are of both i mean think about it each game in the FF Series is different the aspects change which makes it easy to not get bored title after title then the was star ocean and Xenosaga. Xenosaga is my opinion was beyond Final Fantasys standards and had a stroy that spaned three games but its hard to compare them to final fantasy do to how futureistic the world is. star ocean: till the end of time was a good rpg but with a confusing story the battle system felt fresh but at times the game balance seemed to be off eathir the fight was too easy or just a pain. so its hard to compare one rpg to another do to the fact that they all have there high points and low points. these are make rpgs fun, finding the good things about them and see how they end and as the continuly evolve and change theres no real telling which is truly the best.P.S.If you read this i thank you for you time.

"Better" is relative. That said, try the Zelda games, Dragon Quest/Warrior, "Tales of" series and maybe the Wild Arms series.

Of course there are!I mean FF series is popular because of GFX, music, gameplay and storyline....

The original FF, which was very popular, just so happened not to be high in quality in any of those areas... =\ except for maybe gameplay... and the GFX didn't matter in games too much back then.I think that OTHER Square series, Seiken Densetsu, is actually better and more entertaining than the FF series... not to mention several RPG/Strategy games.

The only rpg that i have seen that is as good as ff is zelda

wrong zelda is not an RPG game it has no HP system or the use of MP . you cant cast summons too do damage too bosses so its not even an RPG ....you need too go back too gaming school dude .

this is serious question is there any RPG that can match up to the standards of final fantasy including storyline battle plot etc.????

i can think of RPGs better then FF7 xenogears xenosga star Ocean Parasite eve Chrono Trigger wild arms dragonquest ect ect

The FF series in general is good but I don't see how they're all called masterpieces and such. I mean, FF7 was alright, but people still go on and on about it 10 years later. Why? Also, I hated FF8, I think it was absolutly retarded. FF9 was okay too, and so was FF10, though both were even easier than the usual FF games are.The first two were boring, and FFX-2 was also a dissapointment. That all being said, the FF games are generally good, but not as big of a deal as some make the games out to be.Some better games IMO, are theseChrono TriggerXenosaga 1Secret of ManaSecret of EvermoreLunar 2: EBCDark Cloud 2GrandiaA few more but I can't think of them at the moment.

I'll say that FF is the best RPG game besides Dark Cloud 2 and Kingdom Hearts 2.

Well...FF is always going to be in my heart as one of the best RPG's, but I can name a few that I like the same or better..The Legend of Zelda series are always going to be favorite...there is also the Paper Mario series, the Kingdom Hearts series, Fire Emblem series...Chrono Trigger is also great, as well as any of the Mana series.Seiken Densetsu (sp?) 3 is great too.

Anyone who knows about Chrono Trigger, knows it's better then any FF series can be. It took some of the greatest RPG minds of the time and had them all work on the same game. This is why it turned out to be such a landmark game and still stands strong (and sells for outrageous prices) today. I really doubt you may see greats like that again, so I find it hard to believe another game like Chrono Trigger will be produced (especially any Final Fantasy).Anyhow, I always like Seiken Densetsu and the Tales of Series a lot more then Final Fantasy. Both are pretty much the same quality storywise, not always as great graphic wise, but they both have better gameplay systems that appeal to me more.
