Chocobo Derby!

It is not so much what you call it, as it isn't much of a quest. RPGs are allowed to have quests. They are not allowed to have mini games. This is why FF6 was the last good Final Fantasy, even if latter ones could have their good moments.

subjective, everyone has their favorite final fantasy, some will say the NES ones were best, some will say 6, 7,8, anywhere in between, it's all opinion. Minigames have their place, think of all the fans that the card games and blitzball have. FFXI has plenty of minigames though only a few are in any way interesting or used.
