Amazon.com Review
Each installment of the Final Fantasy series has featured strong storytelling, characterization, and strategic combat, fun minigames, and hours upon hours of captivating gameplay. The 10th title in the series is no exception. This is the first time a Final Fantasy game has appeared on the PlayStation2, and it takes full advantage of the increased technical capabilities. The story this time concerns Tidus, a blond-haired star of a sport called Blitzball. While he is playing in a match, Tidus's city is attacked by an evil force called Sin, and everything is destroyed save Tidus and his guardian Auran. The adventure begins as the pair are somehow transported to another world. From here on, it's standard Final Fantasy gameplay: fight battles, manage experience points, learn new powers, and recruit a motley crew of nonplayer characters to join your quest. The graphics, however, take things to a new level. They are amazing not only for their realism, but also for their imaginative art design. The world these heroes inhabit is breathtakingly beautiful, flowing, and full of inventive surprises. You haven't lived until you've surfed cables high in the air, or ridden a graceful airship through the clouds. The stunning effects are on display when you use magic in combat, summon gigantic monsters, and use fire columns to devastate your foes. One new element is voice acting. The innovation yields predictably mixed results: it's wonderful to hear spoken dialogue rather than read subtitles, but as with most games translated from Japanese, the acting is mediocre and sometimes unintentionally hilarious. Still, the game's new graphics engine and solid gameplay are sure to please fans of the series waiting to see what Square has in store for them. While Final Fantasy X doesn't offer much innovation, it also doesn't disappoint. And fortunately, with Final Fantasy XI already in development, the title is still a misnomer. --Andrew S. Bub Pros: - Gorgeous graphics
- Epic story line
- Voice acting
Cons: - Little innovation
- The voice acting is sometimes laughable
Amazon.com Product Description
Final Fantasy X is the first title in this landmark RPG series to be released for the PlayStation2. The main characters are Tidus, a star of blitzball (a hugely popular sport in the Final Fantasy universe), and Yuna, who has learned the art of summoning and controlling aeons, powerful spirits of yore. These two people of different backgrounds must work together as they journey through the world of Spira. This installment of Final Fantasy has a distinctly Asian influence, bringing a fresh feel to the characters, music, settings, and story.Features include voice-overs for the first time in the series (utilizing the Facial Motion System), high-polygon, motion-captured player characters designed by Tetsuya Nomura, and a camera that automatically adjusts its perspective to correspond with the movements of the characters--a feature now possible because the game is largely polygonal.

 Best game of this decade July 23, 2010
Schadstoffsöldner
I've played the top games of every mainstream console this decade. The only one that was able to penetrate through my all time favorites was this one. I could go on and on about how every single technical detail of this game is outstanding - but the main reason I love Final Fantasy X is the atmosphere: The feelings all the different levels and the wonderful music arouse are ineffable.
Best Video Game of This Genre Ever July 5, 2010
Carol Campbell (Sunnyvale, Ca.)
This is my favorite role playing game ever, and I've played most of them from way back in the beginning with Dragon Warriors and the First Final Fantasy, Dragon Heart, and many, many others. I've played this game several times, and in a way it's spoiled me for other games. I haven't really been happy with any game I've purchased since this one, including Final Fantasy XII. If anybody out there loves role playing games and hasn't played this, you have missed the greatest game of all. The graphics are terrific and the game has a plot and a love story and a surprise ending. Everything missing in regular games.
 Eh.. July 3, 2010

I got this game back in '01. I never finished it because for some reason, the final boss was impossible to beat (and I was way ahead in levels). I did love the storyline, and the characters were great! Really, had they waited to finish the actual game instead of putting it out early... it would have been perfect. The graphics are... not so great, but the CG cutscenes and the ability to replay them later on is just... awesomeness.
Did I mention Seymour Guado? GAH. Will Final Fantasy ever stop making me fall in love? And will Square Enix ever decide to focus a game on the "bad guy?"
best game ever June 29, 2010
Roberto George
I know it's my opinion and I say this is the best game on the ps2 console. If you love RPG's, this is a must have!
My Favorite Game June 28, 2010
Michael B. Krause
This is my favorite game! I had to write a review for it.
Positives:
-This game has incredible graphics and unique characters. It is a HUGE step up in graphics/audio from previous final fantasies and better story and characters than the newer final fantasies.
-The aeons that you summon are awesome and very useful in the game. Although be sure to change the options to short animation after you are done seeing the aeon summoning scene enough, this will save you lots of time.
-The soundtrack is awesome and the characters are interesting.
-Lots of side games, hidden areas, extras. Highly re-playable
-Challenging bosses at times that you will have to prepare for before fighting.
Downsides:
-There are a LOT of cut scenes that you can't skip and some people complain that is like watching a movie rather than playing a game. I found that these scenes added to the game and the story a lot.
-There are somewhat challenging/annoying puzzles in each temple, but there are great FAQ's at [...] that can walk you through if you get stuck.
-Some of the characters voices are annoying such as Tidus, Yuna, Rikku etc. but the other characters make up for it and are funny/cool such as Auron, Wakka, Lulu.
-I found the blitzball to be the worst part of the game, it is boring and difficult to win, yet you only HAVE to play one or two times, playing it again is optional.
- The leveling up system is different and some people do not like it, but I found it okay and easy to use.
Verdict:
This game is a treasure with a great soundtrack and memorable story/characters. I ended up learning a few of the songs on guitar and piano. It is a must have for any ps2 owner.
