They sell it on steam and you can play it on a toaster.
ffT was the best followed closely by ff5. FFVII is a troll pick, VIII was better then VII. FFT hands down had the best story and combat, the graphics were not that great but who cares.
7 ruined the series.
Haven't played too many FF games, I always felt like XII was the best one I played along with maybe Tactics. I really felt like those games nailed the tone, some of the others can feel a little too much like a Shonen anime.

FFXII is one of the most underrated games of the series. I'd put it in my Top 5. Everything about that game felt epic to me. It was one of the most challenging games too. I could breeze through all FF games (save for some optional bosses) but FFXII killed me a few times. You have to grind and prepare in that game a lot more, then typical.
XII was tough. I remember I got to a fight with a bunch of little...somethings. I got raped repeatedly and didn't care enough for the game to grind up to win.

I think everything about FFXII gameplay wise, was the best the series has ever seen. It's the closest the game ever came to successfully doing away with turn based combat, for something fresh. The combat in XII is so good, and makes grinding fun. It's only fault, was that you could break the game with it's "auto command"(Gambit?) feature. Certain combinations you could put together, could make you virtually indestructible. Regardless, the combat was still amazing, and I'll never understand why they did away with it for whatever the fuck that garbage was in FFXIII.
That said, I think where XII fails a bit and what holds it back, is it's story and characters. Not the most memorable cast of characters, and the story, while decent, was kind of bland. The gameplay also gets in the way a bit, since you spend so much time just battling, and doing optional stuff, that it becomes easy to lose your place in the story.
Overall though, the game is great, and easily the most underappreciated in the series' history.
VII is easily the most overrated. The story's actually pretty cool, but mangled by the translation, and the graphics probably hold up worse than any game in the series. The SNES sprites may be more primitive, but are more aesthetically pleasing than the blocky, huge forearm having, no face messes in VII. It's still a very good game, but I think the fact that it was so many people's first Final Fantasy or RPG period causes a lot of people to look at it through rose colored glasses.
