I can say that anyone who likes 13 is ignorant.
now my favorite is hard to choose.
Out of 4,6 and 9...i say all three.
I can't choose just one.
7 is over popular and too many addons (sequels, prequels, OVAs)
8 is a bit better but it had the most stupid weapon ever (and this is a guy who likes weapons.) A GUNblade that is only good at melee?! at first i thought it was a sword with the addition of firing blades but then i played 8...and it made the gunblade look like s**t!
Hell Yuffie's weapon is way better looking than a gunblade (And i do enjoy that weapon more than buster).
the order i put the three in might be 6,4 and 9.

Don't tell me that I shouldn't like a game because you don't. Thanks.
Anyways...
I love XIII, my friend, and not only 'cause the graphics make me feel good inside.
I like the characters, how they develop, how real they could be. If you picked out some random person off the street, they would most likely be just like one of XIII's characters at one point in time. Heroic, ignorant, saddened, they are the characters most can relate to.
The music makes me cry. All the time. Sure, they changed the fanfare, and Chocobo's theme is a bit..On the strange side. But so what?! We need change. How many remixes of the same theme can you do, honestly? Besides, he's a different composer and it's his own personal touch to the game.
Battle. Okay, now, I know you. You're just gonna start complaning about how you can just press X and the battle is over. Every time you say that, I wish I could just slap you. They tried to make you be able to plan your own battles and try something new. And if you didn't have trouble on a few bosses, you must be like, effin' uber or something. It gets hard. Mix up and try new Paradigms or something. It's a new style, and quite frankly, one I like. Not because I spam X, but because then I can try new things. Oh, and yes, you DID admit to spamming X. So therefore you don't care, or you don't know how to play an RPG. Spamming X is for newbies, and people who JUST DON'T CARE.
"It's just a funnel." But one full of awesomeness. It's like you're actually trying to do your job, not travel all of Spira or Terra or whatever world just to fight and do stuff when people are dying. It adds a real touch to the game. And makes it like a real RPG.
"There are no levelssss. -Whine-" SO WHAT?! They practically took the Sphere Grid (Which everyone liked, right? Right?) and put a Crystal in the middle and layed out the jobs in a weird chain. And WA-BAM! You have the Crystarium. So, who cares about the levels? You get to level up specific jobs and the stuff you need for them. I'm cool with that.
SUMMONS!!!!!!!! I luv Eidolons. They are fun. You can control them, not like in XII, but they fixed it up so you can strategize and use them accordingly to fight in whatever manner is easiest for your battle, whatever type it may be.
"All you guys care about it the graphics." Really? Really? No, we don't. They're just so amazing, we have to talk about them. They are beautiful, magnificent, and I love them. But that's not the only reason why we play the game.
So, is that enough for you? I'm not trying to sway your opinion about the game. I'm trying to stop you from making degrading and arrogant comments. There are people that like Final Fantasy XIII, and though that is most likely to your dismay, you'll just have to deal with it. It's a good game. IN MY OPINION.
EDIT: Oh, and please, stop comparing one Final Fantasy game to another. They are all unique and I like them because of their differences. So just stop, You're ruining it for everyone for expecting them all to be the same.
∧ THIS. You have pretty much summed up my argument for why I adore this game.
Hard to choose though which is my most favorite FF. IV shall always hold a special place in my heart (for nostalgic reasons) and VII - X, XIII would be the reason why I'm going to have a hard time choosing.
