I thought it was a pretty good game for what it was worth the ending to 2 made the games worth it, why is it hated so much?

Pretty decent games I'd say. Nothing great, but they're not bad either. I kinda liked the first one when it first came out but replaying it was dreadful. The second one was okay, but instead of evolving a lot of what needed evolution in the first one, aside from the combat and gummy ship, it didn't really add much to the overall idea. The first one had quite a bit of platforming, instead of evolving this and making those sectons bearable they scrapped the ideas completely, making the level design flat.

Christophomo :lol
I like KH

:-* :gay
It was a neat PS2 game - actually it was one of the firsts I got as I got the PS2 late in it's life cycle, and I saw it on sale. I remember seeing all those commericals again and again and again - mindless gameplay, but it was fun.

I love Kingdom Hearts
Kingdom Hearts II was the best game of 2006, easily topping Final Fantasy XII
Easily.
I would re-buy the Final Mix if it came to America...

KHII was better than FFXII. That's something I never imagined ever saying.
-
did you like ff12 himu? what was your thoughts on it as a whole
-

I think that FFXII was a complete waste of potential in every category. Every thing about the game sizzles with excellent ideas, but nothing is pulled off expertly. The battle system doesn't allow me to play it the way I want. I play every FF on active mode at the highest speed setting, and it's impossible playing the game that way. Also, the game either forces you to play with gambits and let the game play by itself, or make you play through an absolutely cumbersome and flawed menu system riddled with micromanagement times infinity. There aren't many options and it's not particularly fun.
On the story front, that also had a good premise. At first it was everything I had hoped for: a mature Final Fantasy that's not about saving the fucking world (again), with a nice swig of the internal political struggles and nice characters that Matsuno is known for. I got none of that as the game developed. What I got what a plot that felt half thought out, and had little reward. The game brings up questions but it doesn't really bring much resolution or resolve. Of course, I still haven't beaten the game because it's tedious and boring as shit, but that's still my idea on the situation and many seem to agree.
The best thing about FFXII are the production values. The voice acting, script, dialouge, translation, and everything that went into the graphics, music, cutscene direction are all FLAWLESS and bring up the notch about one million degrees in regards to console rpgs, and games in general. Which is sad, because for all the years I was hyped up for that game everything else fell flat.
One of the most disappointing games I've ever played.

What's that for?
You know, in all my years of playing FF (which has been 10 now), I've never EVER gotten so disinterested in a new entry as fast as I did FFXII.
Even though FFVII took me a year to beat when I first got it, I was never bored with it. Ever.

I found your review of ff12 spot on good sir.
