@ leachim_paloyz75 - Hehe, sorry but at the same time it's good thing The more you want to play X, the better!

I wasn't happy with Dirge of Cerberus either. Which is a shame because it had Vincent as the main character. I thought that was going to be awesome. It's like you said, it wasn't BAD but...I wasn't satisfied. At all.

Ooo! Heck yeah, I agree

@almeriaq66 - Oh yes, that's right. Gackt who is playing Genesis who forgot who he is(?) and is now Weiss. Gackt though...<3

Genesis is Zack's final enemy in crisis core and Sephiroth's and Angeal's Friend.1 of 3 SOLDIER class A,before Zack become SOLDIER class A.

I've just finished the Final Fantasy Type-0 last week and until now I couldn't get over from its tragic ending!

damn you Square Enix ninjas with onions! .waaa.

Waaaait a minute. You said tragic ending?!
Noooooo! Not again.

Yes, I was expecting it because from the first 20 minutes I saw, it looked very intense and gritty. Did I have hope it was going to have a semi-happy ending? Sorta ;_;

Don't make us MORE ENVIOUS ABOUT THE GAME WE CAN'T HAVE and PLAY YET!!! >.<

though the sad ending was a canon story, so I'll be playing it again to achieve the alternate ending

i've played FF-3,4,5,7,8,9,10,12 :D And I Made Them My Inspiration In My Daily Life:D BTW FF-VII IS THE BEST!!:D ZACK FAIR WILL ALWAYS BE ALIVE FOR ME:D

I thought so.. Type 0's ending... ><

Oh well, I just got back playing it, and I must say, the gameplay while you're in the World Map is awesome! xD xD You know, capturing(*ehem.. destroying) places, and such.. ^^

Looks like I'm going to get my hands full this weekend. ^^

Well, since I have to wait to play Type-0, I've been playing FFXIII-2. So far, I really like it. I don't know how far a long I am (maybe halfway, maybe not) but the story is still a bit wonky. Not bad just...wonky. The gameplay though! <3

The game overall, I really like it. The soundtrack, the details, all good ^^ I just want to see more Lightning!! Argh!

Spoiler:

FFX is the last Final Fantasy to feature turn based combat and the first to feature voice acting. The story is very good and very touching. A must play for fans of FF! I really recommend.

P.S. I'm actually re-playing it right now on my PC using an emulator. The Japanese voices are top notch but if you played the English version first, it might sound weird at first. But it's also very interesting to compare and contrast the voices. Oh, and Yuna's Japanese voice is much more kawaii. .clap.

Definitely going to try this one! ^^
Does the emulator work with 100% speed? It's really annoying if it does not. xD
Haven't played the whole FFX yet because I got ripped off on buying a defective game. (Froze on a certain part in the beginning which made me not continue any further.)

Lucky you. xD xD
Yeah, I just went to a gaming store, I was happy to see the PS3's price drop. xD
What really made my day yesterday is knowing that FFXIII-2 has already been released! ^^
Now I'm pushing my parents to buy me a package. (Not going well though..) xD xD

Well, as long as Lightning's in it.. Even if the story's a bit wonky I'm still going to play it.. ^^

Yes, it does. But it will also depend on your system. At the very least you need a decent dual-core processor and a decent video card to run at full speed. And don't forget to get the latest version of the emu from it's website. The latest version has many of it's slow-downs fixed, specially in FF-X.

Spoiler:

Just finished FFXIII over the weekend. Overall, it was great, probably my favorite Final Fantasy so far, with XII close behind. The battle system is really fun, and most of the characters are enjoyable. I'll probably try to finish as many missions as I can, but I don't think I'm hardcore enough to get all the ultimate weapons to get the platinum trophy.

I'll buy FFXIII-2 eventually, when it's cheaper. From what I've heard, the battle system is even better, so I look forward to that!

I might as well just give up. xD
My laptop only has one core. (whatever you call that.. )
I went to check the compatibility list. PCSX2 will run on my system.. but it will be very slow..

But still, thanks!

NOW I REALLY WANT TO GET A PS3.. .fustrated.

Haha! Yep FFXIII-2 will be awesome. ^^
Also, I saw its cover yesterday and I must say.. Lightning looks gorgeous there.. xD

Oh awesome, another fan of XIII. It's always good when I hear someone appreciate XIII. I never did all the extra quests. I always wanted to, but never found the time. Now any spare time I have, I use it to play new games like XIII-2. Maybe I'll get to it eventually. It's funny how you say "most of the characters." Are you referring to Hope? Because honestly I wanted to ...*trails off on a rant*
His character development was good though. I think all their character developments were good. If you didn't like Hope in XIII, he gets SOOOO much better in XIII-2. I won't say anything...just that he's

Spoiler:

when you run into him.

Battle system IS better. I love it! :D

Hope that works well for you!!
Haha, Lightning is in it. I just wish she was in it MORE!
Though I can't complain about her voice. Lightning has a lot of lines in the game. Somewhat like a narrator...somewhat and I love Lightning's voice actress (Ali Hillis for the English version) so that keeps me at bay

Actually, I liked Hope's development too. He was really annoying in the beginning because he was obsessed with getting revenge, but he became a lot more confident and likeable after he got over it. Ironically, I liked Snow the least out of the main group. He seemed to change the least, and it didn't help my opinion of him that he was rendered useless in battle once Fang joined. I used Lightning/Hope/Fang for pretty much every battle after everyone came together.

I really enjoyed how important status effects were in battles. In many RPGs, status effects like poison are useless because bosses are immune to them, and normal enemies are too weak to waste time casting them instead of just killing them with regular attacks. One of the few times I switched from Light/Hope/Fang, I used Vanille to kill one part of the final boss using Poison. Final boss. Poison. I can't think of any other game where you can do that.

It's quite amazing how much I agree with you here. From Hope to Snow to Fang. (And now in XIII-2, it's like they threw away his character development so I really wanted to strangle him. Though I don't hate him I guess. He's *coughgoodlookingforacharactercough*)
We even used the same team!

Spoiler:

There a similar tactic now in XIII-2 that works even better. Helps me A LOT in boss battles. It's called Wound.

High five for our similarities!

*high five*

Btw, I was trying to step around plot details and boss names to avoid spoilers for anyone here who hasn't played it yet... so you might want to hide some of your post in a spoiler.

Ah, thank you for pointing it out. I totally forgot since I got excited posting

The thing about Snow though, I don't think that's a spoiler.

@JayPub
I am really looking forward to FFXII-2, I just hope ( hehe no pun intended ! )
that is does not disappoint me.

@tonymiller Hehe, good pun.
I hope it doesn't disappoint you either! It hasn't disappointed me. It's either longer than XIII or I'm just busier. I beat XIII within a week. I'm still working on XIII-2 and I don't know if I'm close to beating it or not. I know two people that already have. They say it's great!

It also doesn't help that I'm being a bit of a completionist

this one!!!

Oh Wow.... I Love Final Fantasy as well seeing that I have played nearly the entire series (Got to play FF3 and 9 and finish 13).....

I also love Final Fantasy and have played them all from FFI to FFXIII and
the spin off games.
FFXIII-2 is out now in the UK and I must buy it.

My fovourites are still FFVII and FFX because I loved the story and characters
from those two, but they are all good.
