Then you should try FFX no ATB there (the enemies wait for their turn and everything).
As for me i played only:
FF I, II, III and IV (normal/ok i guess)
FF VII good (but not "the best" like many people are saying)
FF VIII favorite, but this may be because it was my first FF game and the "school" setting (only at the beginning though) that i like, also some characters were good (except Rinoa, i hate her) and the music was great.
FF IX good (better than VII imo)
FF X second favorite, simply loved the plot and most of the characters (not Tidus) also the summons and the music (exceptional)
FF X-2 average (played only to see the damn "true" ending to FFX) the only character i liked was Rikku.
FF XII average (at best) Balthier was ok the rest of the "cast" horrible.
After seeing the reviews for XIII i didn't buy it (same for the sequels) so to conclude the (relatively) good FF games stopped at number X (for me at least) and the situation hasn't changed (for now).
