no no no you got it all wrong... X-2 was made to expand the market by appealing to women and horny old men... they already had teenage boys with the whole swords magic and chocobs deal they just needed to build up a fan base of chicks and perverts... thus X-2 was born... now just you watch all the die-hard FF fans + the chick/pervert fans will buy XII and we will have the best selling FF to date... that you can count on
