That said, it isn't necessarily for everyone. Vagrant Story is perhaps my favite console game ever. Great story, though a bit confusing, with excellent dialog. VS is an very unqique game, a great mix of strategy (creating and training weapons and equipment) and skill (combat is real-time and you can pull off masive combo attacks). It's a PS2 game and not PSX, but it's worth buying a PS2 to play. The game has a multiplayer mode, as well as an easy-to-learn-difficult-to-master combo system that rewards envelopement, flanking, baiting, and archer barrages over frontall assaults. But both pale in comparison to a game where your tactical abilities rather than your ability to resist boredom across hundreds of random battles are the determining factor in your success or failure. It's only slightly better if the game requires you to battle to get extra money. I'm not a big fan of games that *force* you to level up. Up until the beginning of chapter 2 it kind of overwhelms you and leaves you going "uh.why?" In fact, I basically played it for an hour a *month* for over a year before I got to the point where I started to pick it up a couple times a week. While I like turn-based combat and the story, it took me a LOOONG time to like FFT. If you just run around and, even counting a few random battles as you move back and forth between places, keep going for the storyline battles, you'll become seriously outclassed VERY fast. The game definitely lacks the ability to cruise thru it.
