A lot of people judge FFX-2 on appearances, but after playing it through almost twice (during my first play i had to restart 3/4 through due to PS2 malfunction!) i really found a lot to like about this game. It has a bit of a girlish element to it at first, considering the only 3 characters you get are Women, and at the very start they seem to be singing for a living which i thought was lame. But After you get about 20 minutes in it is just like FFX but it expands upon things and finishes the story. There are some brilliant elements to it such as the spheres you can find throughout the game, these add depth to this story and also to FFX's story, there are parts of the world that you were unable to explore in the first that are open in the second.

Whoop-dee-do, the first FF sequel, although it was a good one to continue on. I docked it a couple points because it is a bit cheesy and girly. I still love the genre and FF, but this was one of the lighter ones in the series. Lots of side missions, beautiful cgi in between, and those wacky girls cruising around having a good time.

Alright, I put a Hell of a lot of hours into this, and I still don't think I'm going to get 100%. Screw it, I'm going to look up the perfect ending online.

But I will get the Mascot.
