Of all the ff's past ff7 (there in a different league really) ff9 is my least favourite. I like the job system and learning abilities from weapons but thats about it. I don't think the storyline was deep enough and the battle system (especially the limit/overdrive/trance whatever you want to call them) was very poor. not my favourite ff of all, not even close. but something i may return to when all other games have lost their intrigue (keyword in that sentence being MAY)
