FF7 - Finished PSX version. Quite recently, I might add. The game really shines once you get a variety of materia to experiment with. I understand why it's considered one of the best, if not the best FF, but we all know that praise can get overblown.

FF8 - Finished PSX version twice. Once when it came out, once recently. Better than it gets credit for, and I feel that the junction system has a good concept but really needs reworking. Most of the hate for the story and characters is warranted, but there are subtleties in it that are often confused as convoluted.

FF9 - Finished PSX version. A fine return to form, but on the whole forgettable. Slowly paced, but enjoyable. Contains some of the best characters in the series such as Vivi and Freya, unfortunately the latters arc is largely abandoned after the first disc.

FF10 - Have played up to meeting Wakka. Was unimpressed at the time. Recently picked up the game for a dollar with the intent to take it for what it is.

FF11 - Briefly played someone elses character for a group of friends and was confused more than entertained. I'm just not that into MMO's

FF12 - Never played, have heard good things about the story and mixed reviews about gameplay. Everyone I've talked to rationalizes that Basch is actually the main character.

FF13 - Have played maybe an hours worth. Wasn't pulled in by anything, enviornment was bland and every character was talking about things I had no point of reference for, though I realize I saw only a small fraction of the game. I suspect that Sazh is probably the most likable character.

FF13/2 - Probably never.

FF Tactics - Partway through the second act, but I haven't gone back to it in months. I liked the combat so much that I inadvertently grinded too much and now random encounters are like boss fights compared to the story. I've already got calculators, which I've been told break the game as badly as Orlandu

Attack % is hit accuracy. 255 is the max value in any stat, so Vincent will never miss with the Sniper CR, even when blinded
