Video game reviews: Final Fantasy X
The Final Fantasy series has been out for many years now, spanning many different platforms, and it has turned into one of the most beloved and revered video game series to ever grace the planet. It has certainly become one of my favorite game series, if not my favorite, and has become a series that all role playing games wish to become one day. Every game has been hyped and for the most part always delivers. Amazing that such a last gasp effort from a guy about to be broke turned into the most popular video gaming series in the history of video games, huh?
About a year or so ago, Squaresoft made the announcement that changed the face of their company forever. They were going to release the most anticipated game they've probably ever released to the Playstation 2. While the choice of consoles was not a huge shock, the fact that Final Fantasy X was coming sent shockwaves into the role playing game community, and for good reason. The game seemed awesome on paper. The graphics were amazing, and the game promised awesome gameplay.
Fast forward to December 18th, 2001. The day that will live in video gaming history. The day Final Fantasy X was released, just a week before Christmas. I rushed down to the store to get my copy, went home, tore off the packaging, and played all night. Needless to say, I fell in love with the game, but like anything you ever fall in love with, you soon become annoyed with certain aspects, because you think you have the perfect package, and it turns out you don't. That's what happened here.
Don't get me wrong, I loved Final Fantasy X. I think it's a seriously awesome game that did its job perfectly. It wasn't supposed to be another ''gameplay only'' game. It was supposed to combine movie scenes and gameplay seamlessly together, and I think it did so perfectly. I think some people expected it to be a totally radical game. And it wasn't. Sure, I found some basic flaws with the game, and I don't think it's as great a game as Final Fantasy 9, or even FF5, but it's still an incredibly fun and meaningful role playing game.
The story is the most overused aspect of Final Fantasy X, in my opinion, and it is the only main weakness to a certain point. I disliked the option to skip story scenes by pausing like you could in Xenosaga. Some of the earlier movie scenes in the game are boring as hell to watch a second time, or third time, and skipping them would have been nice. Plus, several of the scenes mean nothing to the game. However,
Which video game console is better: PlayStation 3 or Wii? – Part 19
I think the Wii is better then the Playstation 3 because you have more exercise playing the Wii then the Playstation 3 and every other system. So for the people who don't like going outside and getting exercise and plying video games the whole day can play the Wii and get exercise. The Nintendo Wii only costs $249.99 and the Playstation 3 costs are $499.99 and $599.99. So you get more exercise and a lower price if you buy the Wii. At first my parents didn't want to get me the Wii but when they saw it they bought it and they started playing all the time. They liked it because it gave them exercise and kept them in good shape. For everyone who likes playing video games and doesn't want to go outside if you play the Wii you are playing video games but at the same time it feels like you are playing outside.
