The FFX demo is pants. Fine, I love FF and was looking forward to this demo for ages, but:
a) There are massive black borders
b) The character movement is poor and jerky
c) The voice acting is of Army Men standards
d) It isn't anything I haven't seen (or played) before
e) It should give you the whole beginning bit, not just the boring 'escape with Auron' bit.

Okay, so it is an Okay demo, and its great to play Final Fantasy, but if the actual PAL conversion is like this, I'll kill myself. AND, when I do get the actual game, the first thing I'm gonna do is press 'mute'. Sorry Nobuo, but to not have to hear that annoying voice is worth sacrificing your godlike music. :-(

I don't support borders but I don't mind them. Half the time I don't even notice them. They don't take up 2/3 of the screen, or anywhere near that - 2/3 is more than half! And before you say that I haven't played any games with borders on, well I have, I own Onimusha, DMC, FF6 and all the Res Evils.

Same here, I'm not going to buy games with very thick borders, I've got an AR V2 so I can rent em and finish them before their due back a good example is Onimusha2 if it has thick borders like the first one, I'm not buying it.
