Just like to know what other people thought of the game.
Me, Well I thought it was to short an to easy to beat.
I know a lot of people who practicly killed themselvs training and
leveling up, only to realise that it was so easy!
They have my pity.
Tell me what you think,
and be as horrible as you like.

You couldn't play it because some muppet at square-enix thought it would be better if you could only manage the team. Another dumb decision

Very linear with very few sub-quests. The mini-games weren't very fun and the story was absolutely ridiculous. Furthermore the game had next to no replay value and the characters were on the whole annoying. I found it enjoyable due to the sphere-grid and other small, interesting features but on the whole I found it to be a disappointing and shallow affair.

Okay listen,
do you think that i am stupid?
Firstly I beat the game 97% on my first go,
with my caracters at level 100. simple
Secondly FFX is way near harder to beat than this,
With the spheregrid system, ultimate weapons (and the stuff needed to power them up) and the dark aeons.
Did you even play X?
I don't mean to offend you but that game is all right for begginers
(who are playing final fantasy for ther first time),
But I have been playing since Since FFVI and think that Square-enix could haved made it alot better.
Fair enough?

I felt cheated - seeing as locations and people were exactly the same as in FFX. And new locations were very few, and very dull.
The mountain-top ruins were a good start, but downhill from there.

That said - I did finish with 95% (including beating the 100-floor dungeon go me!) - so it must have done something right.

i really liked FFX-2
the battle system was neat and fast paced.
it isn't that hard to level up to lvl 99...just get lady luck dress sphere, double exp, critical strike and you're sorted. I also played blitzball for a while and got 3 triple ap eggs :D
and yeah that monk dude at lvl 101 of bevelle is an absolute **** to beat even with everyone levelled up.

Personally I was never too keen on this and am still yet to play it, considering what a disappointment Final Fantasy X was.
