New FFXV Details

I don't think considering FF7 as the undisputed "best FF" has much weight to it. Those who are in the FF-fandom will never agree on the "best" FF. Many who like FF6 typically don't like FF7, and for some good reasons. Mainly 7 takes a lot from 6, they are almost practically the same story with a few key differences. Plus the final Sephiroth fight is almost an exact replica of the Kefka fight.

FF7 surely has a significant amount of sales, but it was also the first well advertised game in the US, it was 3D, and on an extremely popularizing system. Not to mention it also featured a death of a main character.

Granted this is coming from someone who thinks that FF9 is the best in the series, so take what I say with a grain of salt, if you will.
