    Default FFX is it worth the money?

    i am thinking of buying a ps2 and FFX bacause everyone tells me how great it is, is it really? i've played FFI,II,III,V,VII,Tactics Advance, and crystal chronicals, but i liked ffI and VII... is it anything like them? also if i buy ffX-2 after i beat ffX can i transfer my characters to ffX-2? how much is ffX about?who are the main characters? are they all girls? is it a really long and boring game like crystal chronicals is? or is it fun everystep of the way with a good story to back it up like ffVII? i would like to know basically everything about this game before i go out and spend over 200 bucks on it and ps2...

    Nowadays, FFX is probably $20 since it's a greatest hit, and you can probably get it used for cheaper. FFX is actually very little like FFVII, but I think you'll still like it. It's a pretty good game, and it has a great storyline. It is rather long, but it's not really boring at all. It is rather linear though, and the time that you have to do sidequests is clumped into one timespan, that's probably the boring part of this whole game. You can't transfer a save file from FFX to FFX-2, they use two entirely different systems and doing so would be pointless. I would say FFX is worth the price of a PS2 and the game. Plus, you'll have a PS2, so you can get other good games as well.

    Edit: Oh yeah, and you can probably also get a refurbished PS2 for about $120.

    definitely worth it ! ermm.. i dont live in the USA so i duuno the price thingys but its like £104 for the new, slim ps2....well if not u could always borrow one..AND the ps2 works out as a pretty hefty good looking dvd player ^_^
    You know you're obsessed with FF when...:laughing:
    1) You yell at the characters. i.e "Cloud, what the heck do you think you're doing?!"
    2) You praise the characters and/or tell them you love them. i.e "Oh yeah, Squall!"or"Nice save Tidus!"
    3)You start to dress/talk/act like the characters and/or pick up their habits i.e saying ...'whatever' half the time,randomly pointing your finger in the air when you talk to someone,ect
    4) You talk about the characters as if you know them. i.e "Oh yeah, I think Cloud and Tifa should get together."or" Seifer such a big jerk!â€Â
    5) When you're playing FF and someone asks what you're doing you reply "saving the planet".
    6) You mistakenly refer pounds/dollars/euros as Gil afew times.
    7) When you grow up you want to be a -SeeD/ Shinra Soldier/ Galbadian Soldier/ member of SOLDIER/ Sorceress/ Choco Sage/ Garden Master/President of Shinra Inc./ Turk/ Scientist/Summoner/Mage/White Mage/Sephiroth
    8) You wondered (or wished) one (or more) of the following:
    --You knew did know (and /or)knew someone as cute as Squall/Cloud/Irvine/Sephiroth/Vincent/Tidus ect,Tifa/Aerith/Yuffie/Rikku/Yuna/Rinoa/Selphie ect
    -You could go to Garden instead of school
    -You could play Blitzball in PE
    -You could drive the Ragnarok/Highwind
    - Chocobos roamed the forests near your house.
    -You wish you could use magic/materia/GF's/summons/Materia
    -You had a limit break
    :riiight:

    i don't know about you guys, but in Australia we got a PS2 FFX bundle pack. It came with a FFX themed PS2 box and a couple of extra things like a bonus FF DVD. As for the topic at hand: Yes, definatly worth it.

    Must agree with J.D.

    But how is FFX very much like FFVII?

    It's a bit easy, but it's definitely worth the cash.

    Not worth it at all, rent it instead and save yourself the cash.

    I think if you liked FFI and FFVII it's likely you'll enjoy FFX. It's more like FFVII than FFI because of the Sphere Grid system, but it's still fairly different. I personally think I might like it more than FFVII, even though the dialog is terrible.
