Advantages: Amazing RPG!

Disadvantages: New System

Final Fantasy X is an amazing game, in all aspects it broke the mould. The main change from its predececors was the innovative, yet Highly successful Character build system named the sphere grid. The main change from the previous final fantasy installments, was the fact that you no longer gain EXP and level up in the original fasion, but instead gain AP for use on the sphere grid. On the sphere grid you gained new abilites and more power by using dropped and bought items named Spheres. the levellable aspects of final fantasy still remain such as: Strength, Magic, Defence, Magic Defence, HP/MP etc.

Also another new factor of Final Fantasy X is the FULLY turn based system allowing for a more calculated Battle. you may think that the other final fantasy's were turn based, this is more so as you have a turn system and are not rushed to make attacks or moves.

This game without sidequests has about 60-70 hours of gameplay, with sidequests about 200+ hours.

A gripping story that defines all the final fantasy games is also present here, it leaves nothing out and makes you want to come back again and again.

The only bad point i would have to point out is the unrealistic dubbing, but that has never been a problem for me and the in game speaking is just an added bonus.

9/10

Summary: Awesome game
