Fact: Xbox cannot be evil, for it will soon give birth to the Most Awesomely Excellent Game Psychonauts.

X-box may have the better system or claim to have..but I haven't seen a game on xbox that matches or surpasses the quality of FFX and FFXI...

Yeah. And real men don't bag on other peoples PCs (I know Dell sucks. I'm thinking of getting a something else). You know if any "real men" heared you say that, they'd kick your ass. By the way, can you actually say that my PC is, in fact, "crappy"? Let's see your goddamn specs.

FFX was the worst FF game ever.

The graphics in that game were amazing. Along with actual voices and real time mouth movement and such. The only thing I didn't like was the whole spere grid.

Ummm, and the gameplay and story? That story just pissed me off. Tidus was just a whiney little kid with really small overalls.

Yes, Final Fantasy 10 sucked, in my opinion. Then again, my favorite is FF8, which a lot of people seem to hate...

Really, the reason I don't have an XBOX is because, at the time I was looking to buy a system, XBOX didn't have many games I found interesting, so I went with the PS2 because of its excellent library of games and it's backward compatibility, which the PS3 is also planned to have for PS1 and 2. It's an excellent system, but it tends to have trouble reading discs and such after a few years. Good thing I got the extended warrenty

It's my favourite too. I thought FFX was the most boring entry yet. I hope FFXII fixes that.

But yes. Psychonauts.

Sorry to bring this thread back on topic for just a moment, but I wanted to mention that the Xbox does help to perpetuate the adventure game genre. I, for one, was pleased to see titles like Syberia 1 & 2 and Broken Sword 3 appearing on the console. I am not going to risk bringing up anything about game politics, but the Xbox legitimately tried to break new ground in console gaming (with online support, voice communication, hard drive support).

Granted, the Xbox isn't the only console releasing adventure games. Farenheit, for instance, is headed for PS2 and I couldn't possibly be happier about that. But I think it's worth giving a smile and nod to Microsoft for supporting a niche genre, regardless how you feel about them otherwise.

Ok! Back to talking about tomatoes!

Cheers.

Broken Sword was released for the PS, I think. And Gameboy Advance.
