My friends said FFX was a really good game, so i decided to buy it..
damn...
what a great game...
It was a little too hard at times (DAMN YOU SEYMOUR, DAMN YOU!!) but thanks to gameshark i got over it quickly
When I heard about X-2 I was syked, i was wondering what would happen next...
The idea of missions and stuff sounded cool, but was actually kinda boring, rikku grew up from a hyper naive girl, to a ...more of a hyper naive girl..., the music gives me headaches, the parts where she sings makes me feel stupid for playing it, and the ending...sucked...Tidus doesn't come back(unless you have alot of time and decide to go for 100%) but she says she doesn't need him anymore, so he disapears...
I wish they mad an X-3 that you played as Tidus coming back or something, because I'm disapointed in that game
and the battle system was stupid, I could never use items or spells in time, so I just attacked

FFX was far from a good game. It was alright for the most part. But it wasn't good either.
FFX-2 is like getting a VD. All the girls are skanked up and the fact they included singing makes it worse. The battle system might have been better if it was a 2sec transformation and worked like the system in the last game.

I never beat FFX. It's a pretty good game, but probably my least favorite FF game.
I'm glad I skipped out on FFX-2.

It was ok, but you have to give credit to some of its cutscene graphics, they're mind blowing. Plus its summoning visuals are pretty cool.

Yeah, don't forget that from FFX to FFX-2, Yuna went from quiet, reserved and respectable to World Largest Slut.
And yeah, the five minute long transformations really kill my enjoyment of FFX-2. Didn't Square learn anything??? Let people skip the damn movies!-jay

Using a gameshark is a fiendish thing to do. Fiend.
I just recently completed FFX, and was planning on buying FFX-2 soon.. but I suppose I'll just wait on that if it's that terrible.

No wait. Just don't do it. You'll save valuable time you could put into such great things like a job or increasing your social status.

I loved FFX personally. Didn't finish it cause i sorta got stuck on a boss near the end and stopped playing cause I'd have to go back and level and i didn't feel like it.
FFX-2 I did try playing cause I bought it, and i was tired of waiting. I hated it within the first 10 minutes.
Btw, FFX wasn't very hard. For the most part it was pretty easy. Braska's final aeon is the only boss I had any trouble on. I could beat him, i'm just too lazy to level up.

Final Fantasy X was neither good nor bad. It has quite a few things done right but quite a few more things done wrong. It's also really overrated, because I read almost nothing but positive reviews (And most gamefaqers who bash it are just bashing it for the half-ass reasons though quite a bit of them have made some good points) and many people are saying "omg lolz tis is teh best gam evar!!!!!!11!!!11eleven2211212!!!!exclamation point!!!one!1two11!!"
I wrote a review for it
here, and just so you know-I use a system where 5 is average, not 7 like many others use because that's the school's grading system.
Auron and Lulu=
The sphere grid=
Tidus=*Insert a very long list of obsceneties and insults here*. There were SO many times where I wanted to shove his sword up his ass just to make him SHUT UP!!!
And Final Fantasy X-2...Well, the plot's Square Enix's equivilant to "Calvinball" (It seems as if it's made up as the game goes along) and Yuna and Rikku have become Lara Croft Clones. (Meaning that they're now Betty Boob and Betty Butt in the same bimbo) You thought Shana from Legend of Dragoon was a slut? Yuna and Rikku are like Shana times a million. Still, I liked the Class system-That was pretty fun.
(Commence the DVGBA-style flaming for not loving Final Fantasy X)

I liked Final Fantasy X, and X-2 was also good as a game in my opinion. But as a sequal to X...it really wasnt that good. They really didnt need to continue the story...
And I never used Gameshark in my life...but, dude, just beat Seymour on your own.
And saying Tidus isnt found at the end really isnt a good thing to say for people who havent beaten the game yet...

well i beat seymour, I got up to evrae when I got my gameshark, so i could've beaten it, i guess, but now my characters would die in 3 seconds against sin or the final aeon without gameshark cheats
and about the spoilers, I really don't care..
People don't have to read this, it's their fault
(you think i'm gonna let people think I say 'RABBLE"?)
and I've just wasted about 6 minutes writing that

you know, you didn't HAVE to read it, I was just wondering if anyone was stupid enough to actually read it

I remember playing FFX. Then I remember playing X-2. It was such a horrible sequel, I threw up all over it. Then I threw it out the widow. That made my neighbor's rotweiler angry, so it came and bit my arms off. This post took 3 hours to make. Stupid game cost $50 and two good arms!

Personally, I really liked Final Fantasy X, it wasn't amazing or anything, I just liked it. Then I got Final Fantasy X-2, not having high expectations for it because it didn't look too good, and my thoughts about it didn't change much after I bought it. I didn't even bother beating it, I got about half way through and I just forgot about it, probably becuase there wasn't enough story to make me want to find out what happens next.
