Having being sold broadly worldwide and having these statistics doesn't mean much but I dun think it deserve this kind of comments.

old manus is right!!! no matter how much i try to like this game i hate it. i try to love every FF but this is different. its a mockery. the only half o.k tune is when you fight leblanc logos and ormi for the 2nd 3rd ECT times. and the FMVs were pathetic. the one at the start where yuna jumps of ormis shield and somehow leaps 20 Ft into the air and starts shooting? was that supposed to be good! and i bet the only reason rikku beat up those gaurds it because they were to busy looking at her boobs to care about fighting! 1000 words was o.k but i like eyes on me and melodies od life bette and real emotion was anal rejects.

X was tons better, but X2 was necessisarly (sp??) that bad! anyways, you ppl crack me up! i wouldve never noticed half the bad stuff it this thread wasnt created.
I like tramps, you make that sound like a bad thing
Owen made this sig. R.I.P.
I loved ffx,but I just wish X-2 could've been better.And Yuna looked better in X too.
I like the girls in X-2 cause they are teh sluts...........

It sold millions worldwide because it was full of softcore porn that 13+ people could get their hands onOriginally Posted by Unknowns
The high ratings, well, that's the Rikku effect
there was a picture here
It's my opinion game reviewers don't know jack, based on the amount of games that I enjoyed, but got crappy reviews. You really can never base a game/movie/lunchbox purchase on a review, cause most reviewers may not have the same taste as you. That's why we have Blockbuster. Put down 5 bucks, try it out, make your own opinion.
As for FFX-2's many grand reviews, alot of reviews I read in mags never really stated what they liked about FFX-2, just kept commenting on how different it was from normal FFs, then slapped their normal 9/10 rating at the end. Like they were afraid to give the game a bad review, for fear of being lynched by rabid fanboys.

.........Just because they gave the games you enjoyed crappy reviews you said they dun know jack....but as you saidOriginally Posted by Autumn Rain
But it is not just one or two but lot of reviewers that gave the ratings which mean different people with different taste gave the reviews and it is hardly possible that all the reviewers think the same and give the low/high ratings for a game.Originally Posted by Autumn Rain
Different in a sense of Creativity. Using three girls as the main character was the first attempt and it revolved around a lot of sidequests unlike the other FF series.Originally Posted by Autumn Rain
It is the one and only time in the FF series with such a setup and having Part 2 in a saga so it is reasonably that they imply something new.
Yes, the millions of FF fans who hated the game are wrong, because a bunch of reviewers say it's great. I've seen movies that got nothing but rave reviews that I outright loath. Stating positive reviews does not mean the general mass is going to like it, much less love it. it doesn't even necessarily mean the game is any good.
As for the rest of your post, I was stating that alot of reviews I read just blathered on about how it was different, without stating whether they liked the changes or not. Basically gave you an overview of the instructions manual with a 9/10 rating at the bottom. And with games in general, I've seen this alot with certain big name games. Which is another reason why I couldn't care less about what reviewers state.
I trust my own taste and personally, the game couldn't hook me. Is it as crappy as this thread was designed to state it being? Not really. Do I still think it's crap? Yeah, but not for the same reasons. In fact, my biggest complaint has nothing to do with the characters or the story. The game just bored the farking hell out of me. Just about every sidequest was pointless and did not affect the story in anyway, except getting the perfect ending. Which I've seen and it wouldn't have been worth the time. The battles were kinda difficult early on and far too easy later. I did like the dress sphere system, though. That was something, I'd like them to use in some form later on. But, the only points in the game where I was actually interested was when I wasn't playing at all, but watching a cutscene. And as interesting as it was, without real gameplay, the cut scenes just were not worth it. I'm not a big fan of Rikku and Paine just seemed like Squall in female form, but I liked the story from FFX and wanted to watch Yuna grow up. But the game just made me feel like they had the right idea with Advent Children and should have just done a movie.
I had played a demo for the game and had really high hopes for it. The Charlie's Angels theme was kinda humorous and I liked the upbeat nature of it. But, when I bought the game, thats the only thing I really liked about it. Everything else felt pointless or boring. The game has to be one of my most disappointing game purchases.

I didn't said that the millions of FF Fans that hate it were wrong nor the reviewers were right. But the reviewers consists of a group of people and not just a single person.

Not everyone said it is good here either. But this thread is definelty not the truth about FF X-2 but a negative review/opinion of FFX-2 that's all.

My point was and still is, that regardless of what anyone, reviewer or no, says.. You have to make up your own mind. Listing reviews, professional or no, and sales doesn't mean squat. In the end, they aren't gonna have much sway if you find yourself not liking it. That's all I was ever saying.
And I'm quite sure no one is seriously taking this thread to be complete truth, despite what Old Manus may believe.
