Of every video game series throughout the years, it would seem that Final Fantasy has easily had the most entries. However, between the numbered games, their sequels (X-2, etc.), and spin-offs like Tactics, very little room is left for any sort of tight connection between all of the games.

Each of the games has their own nuances, but carry similar themes. Moreover, there are theories abound surrounding the connection of the games of the franchise. But really, at the end of the day, the series is all about tightly-tuned RPG mechanics, with some variation in-between. There is no real jumping-on point. Instead, the series depends on whether you like old-school, 16-bit RPGs, or RPGs with a more modern flair.
