What our customer's say!
"4 1/2 Stars? Yeah Right!", Oh come on! Every game on Amazon is so highly over rated I feel like a meandering child being told how great Toss-The-Ball is at the local carnival. Final Fantasy X is worthy of some praise however, it's entertaining, and that's all any game really has to be. Visually it is beautiful as well, and the gameplay is not great, but it's not a pain either. However, this game gets a hard kick in the teeth from the horrible J-Pop and Teeny Drama of a storyline it has. The Visually beautiful movies and cutscenes can never recieve their worth because they're always being hampered by the absolutely horrid character interaction. Blegh. If you're an 8 year old girl who likes N'Sync or some deranged lunatic with a craving for J-Pop you'll probably enjoy it. For everyone else, bite your tongue and do what I'm going to do now, pawn this trash off at your local trade-in game store.
"If you like RPG's, worth your time.", Not the best of the Final Fantasy series, but definitely a fun play. The voice acting is irritating at first, but it gets better. The sphere grid system can be a bit slow, but is the most fun addition to the game. Also enjoyable is being able to swap your party members mid-battle, this leads to more strategic battles.
"Where's the game? this is just a boring japanese cartoon.", How can they call this a "game"? it's basically just a long cartoon which never lets you play! I can't believe there are so many good reviews for a game which has no challenge or fun value. You might as well just watch a japanese cartoon on TV because that's all this is.
"Surprised at how many extreme "great" and "horrible" reviews there are...", This game wasn't a horrific, disgusting waste of money, but compared with others in the series, I am a little put off by how many people think it is unquestionably the best.
As someone who plays RPGs primarily for their fantastic, better-than-Hollywood stories, I was left feeling devoid and empty after conquering FF9, hands-down the most loose-end-resolving game I have EVER played, in any series, period. Not wanting to replay any others at the time, I decided, against someone close's advice, to pop in FF10 and give it a shot. And, after I passed the point where certain characters boarded a ship and left the first village, I was glad I did.
For one thing, the voice acting alone was particularly exciting--I had always dreamed of the day when someone would convert treasures like FF6 and FF4 into full-blown movies, and this was the closest thing so far. I was a little concerned about the cheesiness in certain places (mostly the beginning or involving Rikku, who I did find very useful in battle), and the fact that Yuna sounded completely bored about everything you talked to her about; but for the most part the verbage and dialect of each character was consistent, and the cheesiness was allocated to the more light-hearted characters, who either became endearing, too powerful in battle to dislike, or both. Even Tidus's jocky character, which still gave impressions of cool shallowness rigbt through to the end, was anchored substantially by his intermittent pensive, almost nostalgic narrations. Complete with many musical tracks that blurred emotional lines at exactly the appropriate moments, and overlooking the fact that some of the music was mastered too loudly for the dialogue, I would give this game 5 stars if it were based only on the graphics and cinematic quality, which are just short of fantastic.
The fighting system, as well, is actually one of the most entertaining I've ever experienced in a FF. I'll admit it--I'm the person who just attacks everything with physical weapons as fast as possible just to get through the random battles as fast as possible (I almost never "Escape" because I end up leveling up a little ahead of where I should be when I just stick it out), but this game has probably broken me of that lazy, anti-strategist habit forever. The ability to switch out and use every character in battle not only (for me, anyway) kept the lead characters adequately leveled up (they're never my favorites, for some reason), but also was a great exercise in strategy, even though some characters ended up with odd attributes in the Sphere Grid later on in the game (Lulu was the last to learn "Ultima", and Kimahri became a skilled white wizard). Even though the sphere grid was a little frustrating at times (spending hours trying to get Lv. 4 spheres, for instance), it was exciting to see character's attributes going up when they were already kicking [...]. Customizing your own weapons, too, was probably one of the most satisfying features ever to be included in a linear RPG, and it was great, for example, to just buy up a bunch of Shimmering Blades and then make Auron one of everything (I could just see him perusing his supplies and casually selecting how he wanted to kill something--poison? stone? zombification?). The possibilities are numerous, if not endless, though the process of obtaining the ingredients took about as many hours as all the other parts of the game put together (I finally just gave up on getting 32 Hypello Potions for everyone, and Farplane Winds, forget it.). So the fighting system, in sum, also gets a 5.
The reason I absolutely had to give this game a 4, and actually the reason why I had to say something after reading several negative comments by halfway-throughers, is the ending. Maybe it's because I had just come out of playing FF9, where everyone and his dog has a complete, satisfying happy (or not-so-happy) ever after, but even compared with Young Merlin, where you have little characters jumping up and down and mumbling at each other and which is not even an RPG, this ending SUCKS. Not because of the main thing that happens, which everyone who has played through to the very end knows what I'm talking about and which probably inspired a lot of the FF10 AMVs on YouTube, but because they, to put it appropriately, completely dropped the blitzball on everything else. Not that the main thing was done very well either--the male character involved was much too complacent with the truth when he found it out, and unfortunately this carried over to everything else--but I'm sure I'm not alone in my absolute hatred of game endings where you've become completely attached to the characters and then after the big buildup and the final boss they say a maximum of two words and then the credits come. What the living **** is the point of creating interest in the characters (and this can be applied to any medium--books, movies, etc.--it even happened with a certain series about a British boy wizard) and then not taking two extra seconds to make up a satisfying, complete-feeling ending for them? More pointedly, what is the point of creating non-lead characters at all when they're just going to be ignored later and given no future? Barrett in FF7, Setzer in FF6, Rydia in FF4--I even liked Steiner as one of the best in FF9--what if they had all been blown by the wayside at the end of those games? I would have thrown something, along with millions of other people, I'm sure. Fortunately my favorite guy in FF10 had a decent resolution, but even that was blown off by the other characters themselves, and there were four characters--four, out of seven, who I don't think even got to speak after the final battle. The final battle itself wasn't too pretty either--that handy limit-break on the Masamune led me to kill the final boss with one 99999 hit, after Seymour (aka Sephiroth) killed me at least 5 times on Mt. Gagazet, resulting in 5 of the 7 game overs I got during the whole game. Sorry, but when I got beat the [...] out of in the Omega Dungeon and barely escaped with my life, I expected the final battle to be a little more challenging. I must say, though, that the one salvation of the end (something that happened before the final battle) was absolutely beautiful, and I actually teared up at that point, where I didn't even have time to be sad about anything else later on because it was over so quickly. The whole father-son relationship, and the part of the story concerning everyone involved with the Jecht spheres, was the true heart of this story in my book, and its playing-out was a triumph.
All in all, my best advice would be to stick with this game. Even if it seems a bit cheesy from the offset, it gets better; and even if the ending doesn't satisfy you either, the story itself before that is worth playing though, and you can always make up your own ending in your head if it bothers you enough.
" Incredible game, need international version though.", This game is worth ever penny. It has everything an rpg lover likes, great story, charcters with thier own personalities, and fun attacks and enemies. With that said, does anyone know where I can purchase an international version of this game?

"Absolutely brilliant, moving, and unforgettable", This game was literally the first time I actually started to become emotional in playing a video game. The storytelling is absolutely brilliant - the conclusion so well done and wondrous, it clearly outshines anything a live action movie could ever hope to do.
The game's pacing and character development allow you to empathize with all of the characters, particularly Yuna and Tidus. All the characters are brilliantly woven and serve their purpose.
However, the endless battles can get annoying, along with the constant item hunting/searching.
You will not forget this game. It will stick in your mind and you will remember the ending for quite some time.
"A COMPLETE LETDOWN, I WASTED MY MONEY", Final Fantasy 10 is lets face it a bad 50 hour long movie. since I am still mad I WASTED 20 DOLLARS ON THIS GAME!!!!! Im not even going to give it a decent review. I mean the voice acting of this game is just sooooo terrible. Tidus voice sounds like hes eleven years old. The story is long and dull if you liked FF 1-9 AVOID FF 10
"A true Final Fantasy game", Ha! i laugh at gamers who have played this game or those who have played this game but never had the chance to finish it, and still give it a bad review. I have played many Final Fantasy games, basically thats my personal franchise i have been into ever since. We'll yet it is more of a movie, let me say this really clear "IT"S THE BEST MOVIE YOU"LL NEVER SEE" this game has perfect voice acting, more like every voice actor fits that character from young Tidus, to creepy Seymour, you'll fall into the story as it goes, and makes you wanting more of each character and how they all react to thier main goal, the animation is great pushing the PS2 to its great boundaries of rending true graphics on the ps2 like God or war, if not better! i liked Final Fantasy 7, and yet even this game made me think twice after that, and im still in a debate towards which one i personally like more, but again for all who say this game is more cinamatic, let me say, what game isn't now these days?, kinds like this game started it, but not really. Nough said.. go rent it, buy it, whatever, but this game is good in anyway, and i never wanted to play it until my cousin forced me to think twice. Thanks Rigo =)
"Buen juego, si te gusta juntar un poco de romance con el juego", esta bien el juego, tiene mucha variedad de opciones, el juego en si solo para sacarle el final es corto, pero si quieres saber todo sus trucos y cosas ocultas se tardaran mucho.
"listen to my story ", Ok first off let me get one thing cleared up for all of you "playas". i've read alot of reviews about people crying over how the game is to much like a movie "ohhhhhhhhh the cutscenes are to long ooooooooooooowaaaa". These people have oviesly never played any of the xenasaga games. that those games are like movies man let met tell ya "but they are still aswome" ok not that that is taken care of lets jump into the review
This was my first Final Fantasy game to tell the trught. later that year i was about to get 7 8 and 9 so i had no ideal what to expect. that was the first time iv'e ever really played an RPg game. I've never before seen a game with some much storyline it blew my away man. first i'm gonna tell ya what i just loooooove about this game
1. The graphics totatly rock my sockas. all the envierments are nice and luch. when they show a FMV it totaly blows you away everything is so clear.
2 Like i said before the storyline rocks. it reminds me a lot of "Shogun". like it's about this guy who gets stranded in the futre but it dosent look like the futre it lookes like the past. and he is trying to find his way home. then like he gets involced with these people as they try and save the world. That is just the meat and potatos of the game.
now i've got to tell yw what i didn't like about the game
1. the music waswnt taht good i thank. there where a few really good songs but over all i've heard alot better game music
2. this is the one that really bugs me. i don't like the leving up system cause there is no levling up. when you win a battle you get sphere points and you can upgrade your character on this like huge chpere grid. i just don't like htat man but it doese work.
ok i'm done
