3) Final Fantasy VIII, X-2, and arguably IX. That's something of a diss against Square-Enix as well, but it remains a fact that for the most part, they're still entrenched with Sony. This trend will only be reversed when the next-gen FF game appears on all three consoles.
Is that supposed to mean that FFVIII, X-2 and IX are considered failures? I agree with X-2 because they were probably just trying to milk money out of X's success, but I just don't see how VIII and IX are considered sony's third greatest failure. VIII definitely had some flaws, like all levels requiring the same amount of exp., the [SPOILER]

[SPOILER], and Squall's being 17 as Laguna is 27 (I won't provide any more spoiler stuff cuz this is rather big, but to those who've played it they should see why I'm disgusted)... But I just don't see what's wrong with FFIX. A lot of people seem to hate it, and I haven't gotten an answer from anyone as to why it's so bad. I, personally, dislike Halo, mainly because I feel that it's so overated, but I don't just say "HALO SUCKS", and then reply "IT JUST DOES" when asked why it does; however, this seems to be the situation for FFIX.. maybe you have your reasons, but it still bothers me that other people hate it for the sake of hating it, say it suck, and then force others to hate it just so that they'll have the same opinion as someone else
Anyway, on topic...
Hasn't Microsoft not made a profit from XBOX yet? I heard that whatever money they got has gone right back into it, or something like that...
Why are people complaining about disk sizes? Is it really that big of a deal if a game is on multiple discs? FFVII was on 3 discs, FFVIII and FFIX on 4, Baten Kaitos and Tales of Symphonia on 2, and as far as I know, it didn't make the games cost any more.
