Welll..... I really must get a PS2 so I can see exactly what ya'all are talking about when you mention FFX-2's battle system. Is there anything that would really compare to it htat I may have played?
Regardless the battle system I remember enjoying the most was Parasite Eve's.... but I already know that I wouldn't enjoy if I had to control multiple characters, one character is great though. Also Parasite Eve is at least a tad harder then FF's these days... Definately a fun game for me... some of those beasties would set me back multiple times till I finally wisened up and beat them. Added to the difficulty back then was my parents had bought me a game, my family a PS(we still use the same one.... but it is getting to be pretty weak.. .doesn't find the disc's very often now... .definately need ot replace it), but we had NO memory card. You guessed it I went and sat and tried to beat PE WITHOUT being able to save... my first time I got all the way to the Worm boss on the second day... and *Pooff*...... I tried again... only to be beaten... and finally on my 3rd or 4th try I beat it!! From there I made it all the way to the dog boss in the precient and he killed me. After being handed my rear 2 more times I decided to quite till I got a memory card... I was putting WAY too many hours into the game.
However others I have seen say Parasite Eve is at least fairly difficult. And it isn't difficult in that you have to run around and level alot you simply have to rethink your strategy... which is what it should be.
