FFX FTW!

I agree with this, and that scene was so nice, I even have Suteki Da Ne on my phone, and listen almost daily, loved that song.

1up, like Kotaku, is full of non-gaming BS, editorializing-as-news, shameless self promotion, fluff articles, and cheap hype.

Still it's nice to see FFXIV get a plug there --


Oh and,

XII is an awesome game to me.. but I am the Minority :P

I think there are more of us out there than you think.

FFXII (Intl Zodiac especially) has a level of craftsmanship unparalleled in any FF (offline) game. Most people tend to look back and remember the sentimental scenes in games (FFX, FFVII, etc) but FFXII took itself much more seriously than other FF games. It had a complex story that dealt with the intricacies of world politics, existence, destiny, loss and duty/responsibility.

Not only that, but it is one of the most visually engrossing games I've ever played.

I'm hoping for a HD re-release sooner rather than later.

Not bad at all!

I am awaiting the HD version... my PS3 rages for the backwards compatibility to be used again

I'm kind of new to FF Series, back then I was around 6-8 when I saw my brother played FFX, I tried it and I got addicted xD.

I backtracked to FFVII, then IX. Done III and IV in NDS, XII, XIII, XIII-2. Tried I, II, V, VI, VIII but didn't / couldn't complete it since I was borrowing some of them. Atm at XIV, but also played some lesser-titles like FF Type-0s, Crisis Core, etc.

I'd love to Complete all the FF I couldn't, but I wouldn't know how xD Since you mentioned it, I think I'll try looking for a way

I remembered all the fun I had when I came back from school and the first thing I do was play FFX xD I really liked it, especially since I was a kid back then it was like a Box full of Wondrous things !

Yeah those statements kill me I was playing FF back on NES. FF 4/6 was the best thing ever for my rpg gaming when i was younger.
