    I love turn based battles as I am definitely not a Mortal Combat whiz kid. My clumsy fingers suffered enough in the chocobo races in FFX!

    But I just loved the battle system in FFX2. The screen controls during and after the battle are so slick and cool! Plus a bit of speed doesn't bother me, and FFX2 required A LOT more thinking!

    You can pretty much spend the whole game with Gunner's "Trigger Happy" and catnip w/o any different strategy. But before you get catnip, or if you want more variety to your battles you have to "evolve" your strategies. Every dressphere helps you complete the game in her own way. For example, Songstress lets you survive until chapter 3 then it gets too weak. Dark Mage rules in most places but it is too weak for the Bevelle Cloister. Berserker is terrible for catching Chocobos as it includes auto-counter attack, but it is pretty strong otherwise... in the farplane, when you fight dark element and etc you need gunner and white mage but in other battles you'll need something else as Gunner has low HP and only one good attack.

    That's what I like about FFX2 battles. They are fast and require strategy and you have to change it depending on the enemy you face, it's not just a question of picking one move and sticking with it the entire game (Bo-ring!)

    yeah ffx-2 was fun except for the fact all the male characters were gay and all of the female ones made random outbursts like "Awww... Poopie!"
