Poll: Final Fantasy VII most wanted remake, Dragon Quest V favorite PlayStation game

10,000 Japanese players polled on PlayStation

Sony surveyed 10,000 Japanese PlayStation fans (via Gematsu) of all ages to decide the best PlayStation game over the past 20 years and Dragon Quest V took the top spot (Final Fantasy VII the second spot).

Among respondents in their 40’s, however, Resident Evil took number one, with Dragon Quest V dropping down to two. Among teens, Dragon Quest VIII took the top spot on a list (understandably) filled out with more PS2/PSP games. 

Momotaro Dentetsu 11: Black Bombee Arrives! also placed first in various categories, while Final Fantasy VII was the most clamored for remake. The poll results in full are below.
