For me - in the context of the time that I played it - FFVII was stellar. It had the most engrossing storyline of any video game at the time, the graphics were great for an RPG, and when I played the events that took place in Disk 2 weren't spoiled, so they were actually quite shocking when it happened.
In the context of today's games, what with FFX and such, FFVII just isn't that great anymore. Whenever I play it though, I kind of envision it in the light that I did when I played it through the first time. To me, it's still a great game.
