    I bitch about the game a lot, mainly for the lack of story and weak characters, but it is still the best of the series out there.

    I had about as many hours as you (just a tad over 104) and I found the end boss to be pretty damn easy. i did die once, due to carelessness, but i don't think i needed Bubble.

    I like the ending alot too. A lot of cool stuff happens.

    I'll definately be checking for your review.

    Why did you people take more than like 60 hours to finish this game? Freaks.

    Probably cause they got sidetracked doing all the subquests. I clocked at 122 hours when I finally finished it. I've added another 30 hours to it since then finishing up most of the optional stuff.

    I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it Setz. Can't wait to see your review.

    bollocks? is it wierd ive never heard of this word until now? but i get what you meant by it.

    i loved FFXII i was amazed how many people hated it. the stroy wasnt forced on you so heavuly everyone was just kinda caught in the flow and i liked that. this little rebellion was sneaking in and was going to make a diffrence. also Vaan and balthier were 2 very cool characters in all of FF. the open ended loev stroy was great. who ended up with who??? one of the mysterys of the game and glad it is that way because love storys are always so pushed in FF that sometimes it looks like 2 characters fell in love just because one was a guy and one was a girl.

    great ending loved the game in my top 5 of FF's.

    Good point about the love thing you made there Lynx. It's always nice to have a mystery . I'm also going to make a point about random battles. I've seen various posts on message boards about random battles being lost, about how it's an FF element that's been lost. Wikipedia (the god of the internet), proves that random encounters are not FF based. So when they disappeared, people shouldn't have made a big fuss about such an element disappearing when it wasn't a Final Fantasy only element.

    @Wolf - the review is going to be pretty long - I'm going to like, cover as much as I can, even seperately reviews NPC's, towns etc. Although you can expect a lot of positive stuff from it, there will be some veryyyyyy minor faults/problems mentioned, however, they're so minor it won't stop me from giving it a minor rating.

    I look forward to reading this review, if only because most reviews I have read seemed kind of lacking.

    Also one of those clocking in at ~104 hours, the last 4 of which were Yiazmat.

    I prefer detailed reviews and I know better than to believe a game is perfect and even I'll admit that FFXII does have certain faults. I'm looking forward to your review all the same though

    Sweet! My review even covers the NPC's, what I think to their attitudes, every little area you can go to etc. I'll try not to be biased of course, even when it comes down to Balthier's review, expect to see a high score anyway, because I can see why people like him in the end.

    Damn, setz, you finish that review yet? the anticipation is building. I think that will mark some real good discussion on XII. Not that we haven't already had plenty, but i think it's gonna get more focused.
