Omg, this made me cry...how could you NOT love the new best RPG battle system ever???? Its great and unlike FFX we actually have CHALLENGE and A NEED TO THINK and ACT QUICKLY or die!!! God I love it! I can't get enough of it.

All FFs I recall had some pretty annoying crap for minigames, so thats not an issue (though I must say I do enjoy gunners gauntlet). They did, however, screw it up for the people who actually enjoyed Blitzball in FFX...I like it MUCH better this way though cause its over nice and fast!

And in closing, since SeedRankLou pretty much said it all already, they did a damn good job with it. Its the most original RPG I've ever played...its so different and thats just awesome, and thats where all the gripes about it come from...because its not exactly like all the other RPGs since the 16-bit era. ME ARE LOVING FFX-2!
