I couldn't get into X. Played it for a while and got tired of the TERRIBLE voice acting, the bland characters, the bland love story. Nothing was all that memorable.

IX was at least engaging. And yes, the story was full of cliches, but even the retro video for it said clearly that it was intentionaly. The whole game was intended as a throwback. And fuck it, it had so much sweet and silly charm while managing some memorable characters with their own interesting story arcs (for the most part). Maybe it's not as explosive a release as VII or XII, but it was one that held me for the duration I was playing it.
