NEVER,
maybe IX
but not X-2
thats blasphemy

X-2 ... didnt have tidus in it.


Clearly you never got the good or best ending. :yes:

I liked X-2, it had a decent story and battle system. I initially hated it, but that's because I wasn't playing it properly -- I was just going to the target destinations instead of filling out the story by visiting everywhere.

Anyway, what's wrong with Tidus?

Blitzball was a beast of a game. 9001 times better than any of the card games from the earlier 3D FFs.

i was wondering if someone would bring up the ending of X-2 and IX has the best mini games i spent more time playing the card game and hot and cold than i did the actual game. The card games on VIII would have been more fun if it wasnt for the random rule

Ah couldn't have put it better, the card game in 9 was awesome, I hated 8 simply because of the random rule!

I haven't played on a Dreamcast in forever. :(

I now have a burning desire to Chu Chu Rocket, Quake III Arena Online and PSO. :cry:
