Yes, as omnipotent as we like to think we are, even us Notables from time to time require the aid of the regular masses and other newbie scum to help us out on a point of gaming. Now that I've endeared you all to my plea, here's the problem:
Skies of Arcadia, crackingly fantastic RPG on the Dreamcast. I rated it higher than ANY other RPG I had ever played up until then, including the Final Fantasy series on the PSX. So crackingly fantastic, in fact, that I managed to get Grix Thraves to go out and buy a DC just to play this game, and he concurred that it's the best RPG ever. (Or he convinced me to go out and get a DC, can't remember which way around it was now).
ANYWAY, I've got a PS2 as well, and when FFX was released, FFX is now considered by me as top RPG of all time, for many reasons. Hardware has nothing to do with it really, this is a discussion about which RPG is the better of the two, Skies or FFX.
Grix doesn't believe me when I tell him how much better FFX is, at least he doesn't seem convinced. Is there anyone left in this forum who has played both games that can give a completely unbiased opinion on which, if any, of the two games is better than the other, and why?

I still believe Skies of Arcadia to be the better, but that's because, despite trying my best to keep playing to actually get into the series, none of the Final Fantasy games has effected me in the same way as Skies of Arcadia.
