FFX-2 follows the systems in FFVII and VIII with a three man party, and is faster, but not at all challenging.

It's not the same battle system. Did Yuna use materia? No. Not the same.
It is faster and different from what has been seen in previous games. Which can be challenging for someone who is used to playing by the old battle systems. Once you get used to it it's alright.

I didn't say it was COMPLETELY the same. The biggest comparison I draw from FFVII and FFVIII is three characters, and the insane amount of customization. It may be faster, but, once you get Alchemist... gg kthxbai ot teh Vegangun. For that matter, most of the monsters in Via Infinito except for the bosses, too.

But FFX-2 will definitely alienate you, especially if you play the old school games. If you are a PSX generationer, then it might not.

I my friend would like to introduce you...
to Tetris. Many similarities to FFX-2; no plot, no character development, cheesy in every way, easy beyond words, no symbolism; BUT it's not a waste of time. Everyone loves being a responsible Trigonometry student by playing on your graphing calculators in class...

That's right, delete my post, but keep the massive size 7 one all in caps and in another colour

To be fair, guys, compare the time they spent making FFX to the time spent on FFX2, and that might explain the difference in quality...

Hopefully that means FFXII will be UBER

Why does everyone seem to h8 FF8? The only downfall was its battle system! The storyline was great, and I personally think the musical score was one of the best.

That's kind of weird, since FFX-2 is far closer in nature to the original series than anything in the 32 or even 16 bit generation (with the possible exception of FFV).

Depends on your preference in gaming.

But I would suggest you buy X before X-2 so you have an idea of whats going on.

Buy FFX before playing FFX-2. But either way, you will be severly disappointed by FFX-2, whether you expect to play through another FFX, or whether you play it alone. It rates fine if you compared it every other game made in history. But for a FF, it lacks, plotwise and symbolicly. Horribly.

Yes. You need to have played FFX to understand the storyline and characters somewhat. But for the most part they pretty much re-cap things in the beginning. No. I do not recommend that you purchase this game, because it is crap. But seeing as how you liked 9 you'll probably like this. It is funny. Also, the battle system was unique and challenging. However, (at most times...like that weird hot spring scene) it lacked any sense or point what so ever, and a total waste of my time and money.

Challenging? FFX-2? Did you seriously use that word? If you liked IX, and not VIII, then you will probably not like this either. FFX-2 follows the systems in FFVII and VIII with a three man party, and is faster, but not at all challenging. I got to level 60 without trying, all I did was press X. FFX-2 tries to pull a Family Guy by having long discourses about nothing to do with the plot in an attempt to make humor. Too bad it doesn't work.
If you like good music, then listen to what you have on IPod or computer. (Feel Good Inc., my friend). The only songs worth hearing are the beginning opening song (Eternal Waves, or something like that), 1000 Words, because it is necessary for the plot, and real Emotion, because it symbolizes what a huge disappointment FFX-2 is. Everything starts all nice and cool and beatdown. Then you start playing it...

Couldn't have put it beter myslef, btw Feel Good Inc Rocks hard.

Ehsteve, calm down already. I buy FFX2 at mall somewhere.

[Marluxiaswife]

DO NOT FOR ANY REASON PURCHASE, RENT, OR PLAY FINAL FANTASY X-2! IT IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE!
FFX, however, is definitely a good buy.

Yes. This is the word of the gospel. ehsteve 1:2
