I think Final Fantasy 8 is excellent and a contender for the best in the series, along with Final Fantasy 7. I wasn't too keen on 9, but did enjoy 10. Have only honestly brushed the surface of FF1-6, though I have listened to all the soundtracks.
As for memorable moments - there are too many to remember :D Things like Aeris' passing (FF7), all the ending sequences, the first time you leave Midgar City in FF7, using the biggest summons/GFs for the first time, fighting the biggest bad, tonnes of stuff. It all comes flooding back every time these topics are brought up.
