That dude is seriously business and I love him. I think a guilty gaming pleasure post might need to happen. Perhaps I'll be inspired to write that over the weekend :) Auron is the man.

I'm more apt to play with power tools than girly things...but god damn I was addicted to the dress spheres. It was a fun game to play. @DVG I always thought the whole Yuna "willing to die" thing in FFX was dumb. But then I didn't like Tidus (or Wakka for that matter) very much...he was annoying as hell and I wasn't too sad when he "died". Now Auron...ohyesplease. That would be a good question: guilty gaming pleasure. FFX-2 is definitely mine. :) Same here!

My enjoyment of it was purely gameplay-based, I gotta say. This was one of the best done job systems I've played with, and even though it was literally based on dress-up, I was totally addicted to it. Yeah, the storyline was.... embarrassing. For me, everything else made up for it, though. Heh, I didn’t really expect X-2 to be so controversial. My enjoyment of it was purely gameplay-based, I gotta say.

X-2 is an inconveniently -fun- game to play, but I could never really enjoy it with the writing being what it was. @Carolyn – Final Fantasy X-2 lost me when it took Yuna, a character who walked the world sending the dead to the other side, and knowingly accepted that she must die at the end of journey, and gave her the line of dialogue “Oh poopie!”

The lead character reminded me too much of Tom Cruise...and I HAAAATE Tom Cruise*. It was also the game that followed up FFVII, so by that score, it was bound to suck in my mind. Also...MAN I must be in the minority when I say I really enjoyed FFX-2. Yuna wasn't so annoying....Rikku wasn't so annoying and Paine, despite having a retarded name, was delightfully cynical and mean. Man...I have to find this review of FFX...I have it bookmarked at home and it is HI-larious. I hated FFVIII. The lead character reminded me too much of Tom Cruise…and I HAAAATE Tom Cruise*.

Cause I rank it pretty high for game play. Story be damned tho. I want you to throw X-2 into the mix. Cause I rank it pretty high for game play. Story be damned tho.
