If you don't count only mainline titles, FFXII is my third favorite after Tactics and X. I know its a love hate with this game, but I enjoy every minute of it.
Great game, bad port. Save yourself some time and start experimenting with mods or just use the hotfix someone posted on Nexus Mods, you can add the file straight to the config folder to fix the crashing on launch. Technical bugs aside, this is a phenomenal game and worth getting if you see a sale!
