I'm going to disagree with those who said Final Fantasy (everyone). Yes, 10 Was boring trite with the worst main character ever. Although I havent played it, I'll also believe you in that 13 was crap. I don't care what you people say though, 12 is a mighty fine game.
It's very un-linear, thus there's a lot of freedom so you're free to explore and do what you want. The story is pretty simple, but that doesn't mean it's bad, I still like it a lot. I also really like almost all of the characters (Balthier anyone?). The voice acting is great too. I also enjoy the setting and world a lot, despite the technology and high-techiness, it's still pretty Medieval fantasy-ish compared to 10 and 13's weird settings, wich I think is a breath of fresh air. The battle system isn't particularly great though, and the millions of trash mobs can get boring at times, but fights with bosses and special enemies are a lot of fun, the boss fights with the first two judges were great and pretty damn hard, especially the second one, I barely won it, right in the nick of time. I'm still only half way into the game though, so I don't know if the game get's worse later on, but I doubt it.
I don't understand Vaan and Penelo though, what's their purpose? What do they add to the story? They should've made Ashe, Basch or Balthier the main character instead of Vaan, they're actually involved with the plot and they're characters I like muchly.
Aaaanyway, on topic:
Blizzard entertainment. Most Starcraft fans that also play 2 can tell you that the multiplayer of Starcraft 2 is pretty bland shit compared to the original. The stories of Warcraft and Starcraft are also butchered beyond repair thanks to WoW and Chris Metzen. Chris Metzen is an unoriginal robot that regurgitates the same plot every time. Seriously, the overmind was a puppet all along? Fuck that. The three races are going to set aside their differences to defeat a greater threat a la Warcraft 3 again......? And what the fuck is up with a prophecy and TIDINGS OF DOOOOOOOOM in my Starcraft?
Blizzard lost it's originality after the succes of WoW. I shed a single nerd tear, looking at the uninspired undying zombie it has become.
Hating Justin Bieber, it's getting old guys, stop it.
Also mainstream music, I'm not trying to be cool by hating it, it's just that it's all simple and lame music. When my favorite hardrock bands have a new album, the most popular song from that album is usually the worst and most boring song from it.
To the people that say Mario games: Hello, have you seen the M&L RPGs?
