I just got it for 25 bucks.. spent all day yesterday playing it. I must be strange, because I loved FF8, and I love FFX-2. Honestly, I was tired of leveling up 9 different characters, so I'm happy with 3 (yes yes I know about the dressphere thing, but it feels better).
Honestly, each FF offers something new and exciting to match a variety of tastes, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
