LOL! I had the Brady guide too. I know what you mean. I actually liked the sphere grid in FFX. It was actually one of my favorite leveling systems of all the FF games. I guess you either like it, or hate it.I played FFX, thought it was mediocre. Mostly cuz of the sphere grid, but thats just a personal vendetta of mine. As for X-2, I liked the concept, didn't really like the execution, and as for pacing, dear God. Hotspots or go everywhere, there really was no happy medium. And 100%? Forget it, even with a store bought strategy guide, there are things you need to do in chapter 1 that it decides not to tell you until chapter 5. Ultimately, I wasn't very happy with that game at all.
Did you play FFX-2?

I absolutely hated FFX-2. . . So girly. . . UGH. But X? It was okay. I actually liked the strategic planing of the battle and grid systems, and the story was okay. . .

Yeah i played it, completed it and only looked at it again once. Ok, i guess, hated the whole "girl power" thing they had going though. I think Square just wanted something to make money from. X-2 isnt really a final fantasy game in my opinion. Kind of defies the whole point of the storyline being "Final" by creating a sequal.Although the "Final" part came because it was to become the creators last game he'd make but seing the success it became he decided to stick with it

Yes, and we really liked it. Okay, there is sort of a "Charlies' Angels" element to it, but really an enjoyable game. Though, like all FF games, if you go through the trouble of defeating the alternate bosses and completing all the side quests, the final boss is a joke and a half.

It's easily the worst of all the FF games. I got really hyped for it too...cause I liked FFX so much. It's not that I hyped it up too much and got let down either...it's just horrible.Its not that bad is it?

I dont see whats wrong with FFX-2, but many people say that its crap. I don't see why. Myself, I've played it, and completed it loads of times.

FFx was one of the best parts ever, and FFx-2 is not nearly as good as FFX.

FFx-2 is okay, just most of the backgrounds are recycled from X, and the story didnt really excite me - definately prefer FFX

I did, and the game dissapointed me a lot. Terrible plot and stuff.It almost made me quit buying FFXII, lol.Thankfully I bought XII.but seriously, what was in Square's head when they did that game?

It wasn't THAT awful.The more interactive combat system made the random encounters less tedious.
