FFVI over the original. The SNES masterpiece has its deep structural flaws, but it's still quite fleshed out, with lots to do, lots of little hooks, and the original is essentially a stat grinder with great music.
FFVII is similarly deeply flawed, but even a cobbled-together junk game is better than the shallow fan-wank that was
FFIX.
Tactics.
The last bracket here is a tough one because I have a soft spot for both of these games. Damn. I think I'm going to have to go with
IV just because there are some great tunes in there, and because it's extremely colourful. I like how the story plays with the composition of your party for you, so you have to constantly adapt to new tactics.
