    Srsly guys. I just cannot see the chances of this game, released or not, appealing to enough people to make it a success. There are the, say, 1 in 5 people have have FFX or FFX-2, right? There will be a minority/majority who thought that the Blitzball minigame was bad, so the chances of them buying it are reduced. And since a game being good or not doesn't seem to matter with game developers anymore, it would be scrapped.

    Now, to whether I would buy it or not. The answer is no. Don't get me wrong, the game in FFX was enjoyable enough for me, but enjoyable as a 'Mini-game'. If the extra modes etc that were suggested were put in, it turns too much into FIFA or something, and then I'd rather part with 40 quid on PES4, thanks.

    As well, it's called FINAL FANTASY. It's an RPG.

    well, i think your fergetting about japan.........
    Of all the games that i find well worth the work, I can only say that three can properly qualify for the category. And of the three, one is, but of corse, FFVII. The other twon games which i couldn't depart from are Xenogears and FFT. And i also found a pattern, All of which were released 1997 or 1998 and were on PS. I have lost some faith in Squaresoft when they merged with Enix, they no longer adapt a well-thought plot as nearly as much as the older titles. And thus, I say to you Square-Enix, "Up yours!"

    If it were marketed correctly it would be a success. I can see the advertisements in my head as I type this. Magazine ads, tv commercials, shiney things that light up.

    It may be a success, but that doesn't mean it would be good. Blitzball is just football with hardly any rules. It's just grab the ball, and score. No throw-ins, no corners, no fouls.

    More like a cross between Water Polo, and European Team Handball. Underwater, of course.

    And what's good about it is the flow - there's no fouls or stupid throw-ins, which means non-stop action.

    I personally love blitzball. Its the only sport I really like, which is kinda sad considering it only in a video game. Anyway, I would probably buy it if it came out. Though I would suggest more teams and a create your own player type thing. That would be nice. Otherwise, I think this would work.

    I don't know why people argue against the idea. If you don't like the idea, don't become involved with it. Just ignore it, and pretend it doesn't exist, instead of trying to make people who might LIKE the idea see things your way.

    Blitzball was fun, but annoyed me way too much at the same time. I personally wouldn't buy it as a computer game.

    Square lost it's pride when they released the filth that is FFX-2, and releasing yet another spin-off to a fairly average Final Fantasy game would bring it lower than it already is.

    Anyway they already tried this with Choobo Racing for PS1, and it turned out to be rubbish. Roll on another cock-up from Square.


    P.S: The Harry Potter Quidditch game was crap as well.


    Were you beaten sensless with the game case or something? This game absolutly rocked! And the idea of a blitzball spin-off is a wonderful idea. There were only 6 teams yes, but thats because it is a mini-game. With a full version, Square has plenty of options.

    And just because its a mini game doesnt mean it cant rock by itself. I recently found a program for playing triple triad online. If your a poor uneducated soul reading this, Triple Triad was the mini-cardgame in Final Fantasy VIII. And I think that is where Blitzball can really succeed, ONLINE MULTIPLAYER BLIZTING.

    P.S. yes, the quidditch game sucked.
