Like I've stated in other FFCC threads, I own it, but haven't played much. Simply because I want to get a better experience out of it by having a friend play along side me. This game has potential to be great, especially since it is multiplayer and NOT online (I refuse to acknowledge FFXI as a true FF title.)

Thre hasn't been a real FF game i haven't liked in one form or another. What a lot of people fail to remember is that each FF isn't a sequel to a prior (except X-2 and that FF7 sequel they are working on). Each game doesn't need to blow the prior one out of the water. If you take each FF game and isolate it as a game, not a FF genre game, all of them are good. Just because one takes a format you aren't keen on (not everything can be materia or espers) doesn't mean is sucks. I really hate the Draw system of ff*, and in my opinion of all FF titles, 8 is the worst. HOWEVER, on its own, it is a good game. People quickly compared 8 to 7 and claimed the FF series to be going downhill. I'm ranting where i shouldn't be.. In a nutshell, Play each FF game without any prior ones in mind and it will make the games a lot better. At least in my experiences.
