It'll never work.

Atleast, it might work, but I really hope it doesn't.

Heh. NEVER get a console at launch. Even the early 'Cubes developed problems.
ALWAYS wait for the liberary to grow, the price to drop, and the kinks to be worked out. You'll be much happier in the end.

Nintendo products generally don't, and if it does I'll have a warranty.

I've bought plently of consoles to know this and truth is, the Wii won't drop soon enough for it to matter.

I just wasted a full day on FF12. I honestly mean that it's a fun game, very well put together, though some of you are just predisposed to hating it without really playing the game itself. And no, the demo doesn't count. The demo was meh. The game is great.

...my only problems, really are shop based. First of all, whenever better items come out, you're always hurting for cash. It takes between getting from the central city to wherever you're going to get enough loot to actually buy some stuff. And considering you generally need that stuff at the beginning of the journey...
Which of course segs into my other problem... there are merchants everywhere. Just got thrown into prison? There's a merchant there, fully stocked! Just found the hidden city of the secretive people? Traveling merchant there, too! In the middle of jackshit nowhere in the deserts? BAM! Merchant ready to buy your stuff and then gouge your wallet on the newest and shiniest sword or spear or axe or gun.

The character designs, aside from Vaan and Fran arn't exactly skimpy, though Vaan has no shirt (he lives in a desert town!), and Fran well... I got nothin'. She dresses pretty fanservicey. And only one person has a battlethong, and he has pants on underneath, unlike the main character of Vagrant Story, also designed by the same guy. (Also of note are FFT's Ramza's Buttpants, and the geomancers lack of either shirt or pants depending on gender)

Hey neat. One of the Wii sports games is basically Super Punch out.
edit: ooh. Bomberman. A closer return to Bomberman 2 I hope? That game has infinite replayability, I swear.

What's been irking me about FFXII thus far is the fact that you have to buy EVERYTHING.  Spells, techniks, armor, weapons, and supplies.  Hell, you even have to buy commands for auto-battling (Gambits, though it isn't a bad thing).  This is very overwhelming if you ask me.  On that same note, it also seems harder to get gil as well.

Dude. Sell all of your loot. Except for Teleport Stones, they might turn out to be useful. That's how you get gil.

[EDIT: Loot is a specific sub-list in your inventory.]

As for the character designs, I like Balthier. And maybe Basch. Fran and Vaan suck.

And for the battle system: yeah, you can probably not press a button during battle. The system comes in the form of what commands you give your troops before battle. ave a pretty solid plan, which can be adapted turn-by-turn if something unforeseen comes up. It's easy, and deals with the random encounters quite easily. I actually am beginning to prefer it.

... I'm on the floating continent right now. I'm ignoring Vaan and pretending that Balthier is the leader.

Oh, I have been. It's just the fact that I have so much to buy and so little gil. I also don't like grinding for stuff that much. Gil, items, exp, whatever, I hate grinding.

Also, I would like to give a big FUCK YOU to the Demon Wall. I just beat that things ass, took me 4 tries it did.

I like how each character in XII has a vague class.

Vaan- Thief.
Penelo- White Mage.
Balthier- Thief.
Fran- Hunter.
Almida- Paladin.
Basch- Dark Knight.
Ashe. Haven't met her yet (unless she's secretly that paladin chick from the Garamsythe). Probably a summoner.

EDIT: Well, well, "Lamont." We shall see what class you might be soon enough.

Well, I've only been playing FFXII for about an hour or so, and *my* only real complaint is...

The Bangaa don't hiss their S's anymore! S-E, you *bastards*!

Well, he's not an exact clone.

The punch move is different.

Still, I don't want Wario to end up being a "joke" character.
