    Yeah but why does every game need to have that fairytale ending? Just because it's a happy ending does not mean it's a good ending.

    Right. And it just so happens to be a lot of fun. They made a silly sequel to a game with a pretty meh plotline, so personally I don't care. I enjoyed X-2 more than X simply due to the absolutely addictive battle system.

    My sentiments exactly! The whole Dressphere thing seemed like an "improved" way of playnig Barbie Dolls by dressing them up. Also this is the first FF with an all-female cast of protagonists.

    Most of the BGM was terrible, a hybrid of J-Pop and Disneyland, which generally appeals to women.

    And as an anonymous fan said, "FFX starts with the destruction of a city. FFX-2 starts with...a pop concert..."

Sex appeal; what is this, some Charlie's Angels knockoff just to justify putting in what they put? If I wanted to see something like this, I would go and watch porn. Literally.
    Then again, there is porn in FFX-2. What of the hot spring scene? And that Sphere which Logos showed that focused on the girls' asses? And at Chp4 where you inspect the entire Spira with CommSpheres. You log onto Mushroom Rock Road then it shows a close-up of Lucil's ass.
    Talk is cheap because supply exceeds demand.

    The point was to keep people busy until more Kingdom Hearts game came out and/or FFXII.

    If that wasn't the point then I'm not sure what the point was.

    Well, I was afraid that my love for FFX would be lessened due to FFX-2, but when you actually think about it, that would be stupid. They're two separate games, and the fact that you didn't like one shouldn't affect your feelings over the other. Just pretend it doesn't exist if you don't like it. IT NEVER HAPPENED.

    And just for kicks, I agree with whoever said that you don't need a happy ending. They can really cheapen a movie, game, or book sometimes. If that's the right word. Anyways, I liked FFX's ending quite a bit.

    No, the true point of this game was...Yuna's cleavage. Seriously, they wanted to give fanboys something to drool over. Leave it to Nomura to crank up the hornball factor.

    FFX-2 was fun to me, gameplay-wise. I thought the story was lame, as were the characters. (SPOILER)Bringing Tidus back in the end of FFX-2 was just a bad idea altogether, it totally ruined the emotion of the final scene of FFX, so that now whenever I play it I don't feel anything because I know (SPOILER)Tidus is going to come back in FFX-2.

    I enjoyed FFX-2. I've got over 300 hours of playtime :p. It was the battle system that saved it for me, I can look past a sloppy story if the gameplay is good enough.
