Lead, Follow , or get the F*** out of my way !
I guess that explains why I never see ANY video game commercials almost. The only cable channels I watch are ESPN and TNT, with a little Spike TV and Court TV thrown in on the side. The networks sure don't show them anymore, unless I have'nt been watching at the right times.

The song is very annoying, but I don't think that is the game is that bad so far.
Oh yeah, and that reference is from one of Lewis Blacks stand up specials.
Woo Hoo! Bonus point for me! Here I come victory lane!

Spike TV is the one that prompted me to vent. EVERY COMMERCIAL BREAK I got an ad Monday Night during RAW. Worse yet, FFX-2 was the sponsor for one of their PPV's a month or two ago. That's what started to set me off.
An overload of advertisements also turned me off to MTV2. Well, that, and the lack of good music. Waiting to listen to BS... that's not right.

Spike TV is the worst culprit of ad saturation ever. I know that "whatever happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." unless CSI is on the case. I also know that I should poor beer into a foam finger before a sporting event so I don't have to pay $7.50 at the beer tents (as it's "good finger").Originally Posted by Gamereviewgod
Well, the only thing I watch on Spike TV's are TNG's, and then only once in a while (shrug). And I have'nt seen a video game comercial in months. Go figure.
Now I WANT to see this ad to see what everyone is complaing about.....
Bottom line: FF X-2 was a effort by Square to bring a RPG to women and also draw in die hard FF fans (like myself). And hope they enjoy it anyway (again, like myself).

It's the song sung by the girl impersonating Yuna at the beginning... some CG, some gameplay footage...Originally Posted by SoulBlazer
I don't like the song myself, so if I watched anything other than NFL Football, Survivor, and ESPN every once in a while I'd get pretty sick of it too.
Anyways, as for the game... I find that most of the people hacking on it never played it (or it's predecessor). No surprise there. It's not nearly as good as X (what is?), but it's "fun". Probably doesn't hurt that it's been such a slow year for RPGs...
Little off topic, sense I didn't care for the game after 20 hours.
The Japanese intro for FF X-2 is completely different then the US version.
When I got a image of the JAP version I couldn't play for more then 5 minutes without loosing what menu did what so I don't know if anything else was different..
Who knows.. Maybe the JAP version was better and Square-Enix US just blew it off for quick money.
This also makes me wonder why they are even called the same game? I mean, if the intro FMV is completely different then the US then it IS NOT the same game and that is blindingly obvious right off the bat.

The last FF commercial I saw was for Crystal Chronicles, which managed to make it in before Lord of the Rings. That sort of thing might have looked impressive once, but now footage blown up on a giant screen like that just looks kind of ugly.
Prior to that, I remember the commercials for FF7, which were subdued and seemed to suggest that the product was a movie instead of a game.
I guess I just don't watch much TV.
hmm...I've never seen any of those commercials. I watch Spike TV from time to time, but only for the A-Team...and that's the only TV I ever watch - an hour every 3 weeks, maybe. TV does rather suck.

I'm halfway through X. I'll grant you I hadn't played it before, I hadn't had time. That does NOT make the gameplay or atmosphere in FFX-2 any less crappy.Originally Posted by Nick Goracke
As for SoulBlazer's comment about die hard Final Fantasy fans....I own every Final Fantasy game released state-side, and I'm only missing one or two of every SQUARE game released state side. I've also played through a few of their import offerings through the magic of emulation. I've been a fan of the Final Fantasy series since the NES days. If square could pull ANYONE in based on fanboyism alone, it should have been me, but they failed.
