Yay! I got it! The CE edition too, its so sweet, the case is awesome. I'm 2 hours into the game and so far its great. I love the seamless combat, it makes battles more fun and not as annoying as the random battles. The graphics are great and the first city you go to looks amazing. The only bad thing so far is the camera. Its inverted I guess, and you cannot change it. So like pushing the stick to the left, actually turns the camera to the right. But I can get used to it. And another thing that is easy to overlook is the audio isn't synched perfectly, but I can manage.

My PS2 is broken, so it would be pointless for me to get it.

No it wouldn't, you can still drool over the cover.

it wouldnt be totally useless. like blaw said, it has a really nice cover. and a bonus disc. oooooh
Great game, i'm now 17 hours into it, tho a few of those were from when i passed out and left it on (oops). incredible graphics, intricate storyline. still not so sure about this lisence thing, but its new. and i really like the battle system, tho it is weird having a ff game w/o field battles.

I think I might be 5 hours into it. I'm taking it slow and doing a couple hunts before moving to the main story. The liscense board is ok, still need a little more time to get used to it, but its not bad. It isn't as good as the sphere-grid, but it doesn't hurt the game. The battle system is superb. I am perfectly fine without the random battles.

yeah, this lisence thing is really annoying. i want the sphere grid or materia back. Even FF X-2's system with classes was better than this. having to train so u can use weps/armor gets old fast

Definately Guitar Hero II FF games are always a hit with me, but Guitar Hero is so much fun and this sequel looks so much better than the original (and harder!) At least I can let you guys find the secrets and post them here ;D You guys think I can handle this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=vSKiKPXkM90(this is the computer playing...no way anyone could pass that solo perfectly)
