Best number out of long running JRPG series and best version of said number?

Let's see... In my humble opinion and off the top of my head, the best in some of my preferred jrpg series are as follows:

Final Fantasy 3 (#6 in japan),
Tales of: Vesperia
Xenogears (the first in the Xeno"saga" series)
Suikoden & Suikoden 2

All great games and soooo much fun to play!

Edit: I almost forgot Star Ocean the 2nd Story from the Star Ocean series! *Legasp!*

Agreed! DQ 8 is awesome, even though I was almost turned off by the Dragon Ball artwork, I'm glad I gave it a chance.

I can't decide which is better, Tales of Symphonia, or Tales of the Abyss. Tales of the Abyss had a much better story, but Tales of Symphonia felt like it had smoother combat. For now I'm gonna say Tales of the Abyss because it was more unique.

I haven't played Tales of Vesperia yet because I don't have a 360, but I'm still banking on the PS3 version being released in the United States. If that never happens, I may have to buy a 360 sometime in the future.
