    I actually dont know why they call ffx best ff..... It was very limited, no free roaming , like in ff7 or ff8. i thought it was really bad :(.

    I think it is the 2nd best. No world map and it was kinda linear til you got the airship but there was till loads to do. Besides, plenty of FF gmes have most locations on a world map locked at an early stage in any case.

    The battle system was the most satisying. You were given an incentive to actually use fire on fire-weak enemies, use piercing weapons on hard shell weapons, use wakka's ball for lying enemies etc to inflict the most damage and thereby score an 'overkill'. In most of the games you can just press X to attack, X to attack etc.

    I dunno.

    Blitzball is the best mini game ever? You serious?

    ...

    I just didn't get that inexplainable good vibe you get from a great Final Fantasy game. I found the voice acting annoying beyond belief. But then again, I'm not really one for voice acting in RPGs.

    If I remember correctly, I also found it too linear. Also didn't like the sphere grid.

    Actually I didn't like the art direction or the overall feel of the world. Wakka was also an annoying c*nt. Didn't like Tidus either.

    To be honest, it's been a good while now since I've played it. All I can really remember is being very let down after being hyped up for it's release.

    Saying all that, I'll probably go back now and love it.

    Ah here FFVII and FFVIII weren't exactly free roaming. You could wander around the world map but you get ferried from location to location anyway. They were just as linear as FFX except FFX just streamlined it by getting rid of the world map.

    Any Mario Kart game under the influence of alcohol/substances is always good :)

    Especially battle mode. Let the fighting begin.


  • Registered Users Posts: 942 ✭✭✭kenyard


    yeah. plus trying to manage the wheels can get so confusing :P
    me n a mate were playing double dash while back. hes not bad but we had a crate each. werent through it all at this stage but he had 3 last places and a second last to earn him all of 1 point. he gave up playing then.

    halo 3 online is one of the best games iv ever played though. only problem is loading times between games.. worth it though
