VIII is better than VII, anyway. At least it contains an ending.
Final Fantasy is such a weird thing. Rather than most series, where each game learns from the mistakes of previous games in the series, each one getting better and better and all that... Final Fantasy's mandate has always been to completely through everything out that worked in the past and start completely from scratch, each game. Very strange.
Anyway, battle system was pretty dodgy in VIII but a strong story with a trippy time-travel/paradox ending.
