9. The thing about FFX's plot that I like best is that it doesn't tell you everything straight up, and even then, it's okay. It takes some brain work to find out that no, Tidus does not time travel, what the hell happened between Bevelle and Zanarkand, why Sin was born, why Tidus disappears, etc.

On the other hand, what I like about FFXII's plot is that it's more like the older FF's - about kingdoms, warriors, betrayal, and war. It returns to the roots, just like FFIX did. It feels like a playable fantasy novel.

My biggest complaint about FFXII, however, is the soundtrack is the biggest letdown on the face of the Earth. Almost all of the FFs has at least one non-vocal track that really sticks it to you, the the one you want to listen to over and over again because it's just so damn cool. FFX has To Zanarkand and Someday the Dream Will End (although it's just an instrumental version of Sutki Da Ne, but damn pretty enough to be its own song) for example. FFVI has the Opera scene and FFVII's Still More Fighting is instantly recognizable and generally well loved. FFXII has no such track, at least, to me.

...damn, I should have made that a secret. *has been out of secrets to submit lately*
