A few of these games I would have to disagree with for starters:
[1] Soul Calibur - one, two and even three were good, but four felt so...I don't even know what word to describe it. I wouldn't say rehashed, because it had a nice design/look to it as well as character customization, but with the options given in three not available in 4. I felt a little disappointed. As well as the lack of a story or rather "Adventure" mode three has. But, you know I'm not TOO disappointed, I have the game still play it from time to time and overall enjoy it a bit.

Final Fantasy 7: Final Fantasy was pretty good from the start and steadily improved as time went along. I would have just put the entire Final Fantasy Series instead of just limiting it to seven. Even though seven did have some "meh" sequels it did have a pretty nice prequel (Crisis-Core)

Everything else I pretty much either agree with or have not played :).

Nope it was not, but since it said sequels and s/he/the author listed the first I simply put in some of the sequels. Stated which ones (I personally) thought were good for the series while the lone one (4) wasn't as good for the series (In my opinion). I don't know the list seemed a bit confusing, for the most part I thought the author was just listing things that had sequels so I put them in there (SC II,III, and IV.)
