FFX-2 isn't a bad game, but you'll definitely have to be OK with the Japanese influence on videogames to enjoy it. Your abilities and combat styles are based on what clothes the three main girl characters are wearing. The only characters in your party are Yuna, Rikku, and Paine. I'm not far in the game at all, but the game seems like a quality piece of software despite the lightheartedness. I still wish FFX-2 would have had all of the FFX characters in your party Spoiler: sans Tidus of course. I also miss the INCREDIBLE battle system that FFX had...the only one that rivalled it was Chrono Cross (which the FFX battle system was obviously crafted after). I'd rent it first...if you can play without minding the cutesy themes, then you'll love it. If you want a hardcore gritty Final Fantasy game, I'd wait for FFXII.
