ALLY TO GOOD, NIGHTMARE TO YOU
And beyond that, you can't base your opinion on an entire series on a demo of one of the games in it. There are plenty of people who dislike FFVII but love the other games in the series, especially IV-VI.
I personally love FFVII but I do see what there is to dislike about it.

I never said, I hated the entire series...To me, VII is what stood out from the entire series in itself. Especially the fact on how fucking long the game is. I'm not saying all of them suck, but some of them are just dull. III was awesome though.

For the life of me I can't play VIII at all. It just starts so slowly that I can never get past the train mission.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, that statement was directed at the person you were quoting, not at you, despite the fact that I was quoting your post.
^and the horrible "draw/junction" system.
I honestly don't know what to say about VIII. They made so many changes with that game, and I loved some aspects of it while I truly despised others. Truly odd game in the series, some people seem to love it while others can't stand it... And I don't know which side I'm on.
The difficulty was just laughable though. Most of the bosses in the game could be killed with ONE FUCKING LIMIT BREAK. That's bullshit!

Okay, pet peeves time.
Things that should die:
On rails sequences in shooters - Fuck this
Grenades that barely explode - fucking irritating
Nuclear grenades - just as bad
Rocket launchers - just fucking gay
Maniacly laughing villains - stupid
Corpse runs - lame
Improbably large tits - get your porn out of my game
Improbably large swords - trying too hard
AI that cheats - fuck you
AI that's actually just A - lame
Multiplayer that's all pros - no fun
Multiplayer that's all n00bs - actually, that's a lot of fun
Racing games - they all suck
Systemwhoring games with mediocre graphics - fuck you, devs
Games released that don't work - explain again how this isn't grounds for a lawsuit?
FPSs where you have a really lame melee attack and there's a ton of melee enemies who charge you and kill you in one hit
Defense/siege levels - cop-out
Cinematics every 30 seconds - I wanna play
No cinematics, ever - Where am I going, again?
Really long open sequences with bad narration - no fun
Ragdoll physics in which the world is made of styrofoam - gay
Games where everyone acts like your character is a badass despite him not doing shit/games where everyone ignores the fact that your character just saved the fucking world
Games where the shotgun is underpowered
Games where pistols don't kill shit - I think desert eagles are known for "killing shit"
Games where a grenade can blow everything in the room around, but the furniture remains in place etc - indestructible worlds with havok physics = lame
Anyone else wanna list some?

Super long cut scenes before boss battles that end abruptly and cause you to be off your game when you start the actual battle - Fuck you
When there is no actual skill involved in the fights - This means you WoW
When the leveling up becomes too much trouble too soon - A videogame should not be work, it should be fun and rewarding

Absolutely
Final Fantasy 10 did that a lot, although because it was turn based it wasn't an issue. More of a problem in 12, but it happened less.
Also, just abruptly ending cut scenes before boss battles - in at least 4 instances Quake 4 does a short (utterly pointless, could have been in game) cinematic that leaves you directly in front of the boss in the open, meaning if you don't have quick reflexes you die.

There was this gba game I used to love a few years ago and the cut scene before the final boss was at least 15-20 minutes (I shit you not) when rapidly pressing a to get through the dialogue. And when it ended you were right in front of a boss that was fast as fuck and powerful.

You obviously haven't fought any other players. Or done any dungeons and/or raids. In fact, you're probably still level 10.

I'm thinking about picking it up from Movie Gallery this weekend maybe.
Just as long as the GH3 Wii controller works with it, I should be ok.

I think im the only one who loved 8, it honestly was awesome. I loved being able to max out on the best spells by just drawing to 100 and then junctioning the right GFs to the right people and maxing them out.
I beat Final Fantasy 4 the other day, it wasn't bad, wasn't that hard but not bad. FF3 is quite gay though, I hate the combat system and how the jobs work. I also bought the new Valkyrie Profile for the DS and its so easy and then it has an impossible battle, kind of weird. Not a conventional RPG at all, more like FF Tactics =/

I remember how challenging FFXII was for me at first and couldn't figure out how my brother was doing so well. Then I realized that he had set the action to stop whenever he accessed his action menu, while I was allowing enemies to continue to attack while I was frantically navigating through my magicks, items, etc.
