In which I rank my favorite Final Fantasy games.

Having beaten Final Fantasy XIII yesterday, I've been mulling over my experience with the game, and I'll try to write up my thoughts in a review in the near future. In the meantime, I thought I'd somewhat arbitrarily rank the games in terms of which were my favorite.
- Final Fantasy VI
- Final Fantasy IV
- Final Fantasy X
- Final Fantasy VIII
- Final Fantasy XIII
- Final Fantasy XII
- Final Fantasy
- Final Fantasy VII
- Final Fantasy III
- Final Fantasy II
- Final Fantasy V
I'm leaving out Final Fantasy XI because it's an MMO, and I have yet to actually play Final Fantasy IX. I've been led to believe however that IX isn't really worth playing beyond the first disc. Final Fantasy VI is and may always be my favorite in the series simply because of its plot and characters, with IV coming up strong behind it. In the end, I thought that Final Fantasy XIII was a lot of fun; better than most of the games in the series I've played for various reasons. It could really be a toss-up between XII and XIII for which one I liked better, but XII, after a while, slowed down into a slog for me, whereas XIII always kept things moving.
And Final Fantasy V is a joke. Plot? What plot? How did that game end up between IV and VI? Why is the villain a tree named Exdeath? They even fixed his name for Final Fantasy XII. Why is he still called Exdeath in Dissidia? Final Fantasy V is about as close to a Saturday morning cartoon as the series has ever come.
