The game is above many but far from perfect. I doubt anyone would argue its combat balance or loot system were entirely on point. What most would argue is that it was a beautiful game that tried something new, a consistently impressive move for a flagship series like Final Fantasy and why many fans love to love or love to hate them year after year.

The version my country never saw looks more fun and alleviated some of the problems. Maybe if the HD updates of FFX/X-2 sell well enough they will bother with giving it to me. Even that still didn't have Larsa riding on Fran's shoulders and shooting things, but I can't have everything in life.
