All I can say is that by first impressions, this is better than alot of previous FF's. Better than FFX, definately. Im enjoying the battle system, after getting used to it, its far superior to any of the previous battle systems. The story is strong so far, cant say im particulary attached to any of the characters yet though. The locations ive been through are all fantastic so far, and this is definately the puurrrtiest game for the PS2. And their seems to be more of a challenge than previous FF titles, definately a plus for me.

Was it worth the wait ? Yes, I can see this being the best RPG for the PS2. I cant imagine anyone not being amazed by this game.

Right, im off to play some more.
I'll take that as a yes then.

Yeah, the battle system is much more flowing and exactly like FF11 but with other people controlling them.

This game you, have to level up more frequently than any FF game. Though the temptation of just fleeing through all areas is probably in people's minds, i strongly reccomend you beat down a lot or you will struggle. The areas, like FFX are big areas to walk across but FFXII does that on a much greater scale, it wouldn actually take you forever to walk around Ivalice.
