Definatly the best? Not in my opinion. You can't say that as fact when various gamers have been arguing dead evenly over this for years already, and it's a pretty even split across most of the FF games. Plus, you forgot Tactics!
Wait a second, what on EARTH am I doing? INVITING a senseless argument where I wanted none?
Okay, before it can get off the ground, I know it's just your personal opinion it's the best of them, so long as you can acknowledge that. Personally, I liked FFV's the best (though to be honest I like FF6 and FF7 more than that game anyway), though my all time favorite RPG battle system has to be either Xenosaga or Chrono Cross (can't quite decide between them, but I'll only add that Xenogears did a much better job with the mechs than Xenosaga did, because in 'gears they were actually worth using).
Oh hey, I never saw this post before.
Yes, FFX definitely has the best fighting system out of all the regular FF games. Tactics doesn't count. Every FF game before X had the same extremely simple and slow fighting system. FFX's sped it up and added a bit of actual strategy to the battles. Sure it was no Grandia but it certainly wasn't anywhere near as simple as all of the previous FF games' battle systems. Now of course if you actually like super-simple, slow fighting systems then I can imagine that you wouldn't prefer FFX's battles more. But then you'd be crazy. :)
