Yeah, it's a rather unpopulated location so it's strange it slows down.
Haha, I was tempted to pick that option. I was curious what she would say, but I just chose the ever exciting "Okay." option.

His official art has the same face as Tidus. In game model looks NOTHING like him.

Man, getting the 200 lightning bolt in a row thing is pretty tough when you'll get shocked instantly coming out of battles sometimes. Would've liked to have gotten it out of the way, but there's just no way I'm gonna waste time on it right now if I'll just get cheaped out of it.
By the way (completely unrelated), one of the more obvious benefits I've noticed early on from the international version additions is all the extract abilities, most notable ability extract. I had no idea US versions (of the original) were missing these. I can remember running out of ability spheres early on in the game countless times in the past, especially if you're not grinding too much in the right areas. Then you'd have to stay where you were at on the grid for a looooong time if you didn't want to waste levels later on to go back and grab that ability. Extract makes early grid building much, much smoother.

You get 3(!) Strength Spheres for dodging 50 bolts, which is quite a nice bonus for not a lot of work. It's not needed of course, but it's worth doing IMO.
The Standard Grid is very linear. There's some slight customization that can be done before the endgame, but it's nothing major and it can be skipped. The Expert Grid is similar, with a little more freedom.
If you're looking for advice, mine would be that Cheer is worth using and that you shouldn't neglect the Steal skill.
The joy of this has been ruined. Because Squenix is a bag of dicks.

Spoiler tagged just in case:
What's interesting about Tidus is how he realizes all the shit he says to Yuna during that conversation is actually really fucked up when he finds out later on what really happens after a Summoner defeats Sin.

It was there, I remember 10 year old me going 0_0.
It was also really really pixelated, though, so it was probably not noticeable on most ancient SD tvs.

Sound Shapes a CROSS-BUY title had 3 different lists. Dat triple platinum.
MGS HD had different lists for both the Vita and PS3 version. That's only cross-save or transferring or w/e it was called
I just beat him too. It's my second time managing to beat him. Have no idea how I beat him the first time. I prepared both of my Aeons overdrives and Yunas in anticipation of the battle. Used Valefors 2nd overdrive twice and Ifrits. Each overdrive did about 3000 damage
I did notice this thread had been moving awfully fast but holy crap. :lol
Really? Was under the assumption that you had some leeway post-Calm Land. Sorry for the bad advice guys.
Because its a really well constructed game...Linear sure..But pacing is brilliant.
Areas are short and sweet and usually through smart usage of camera angles, the layout seem completely different and most of the time it actually is(compare Luca to any previous location for example)
In 4 hours you can reach luca in FFX...You'd be plodding through the hanging edge in that time in FFXIII.
FFX is linearity done well.

During the PS2 days, I tried to backtrack to Besaid post-Bevelle/Calm Land storyline and ran into the same problem as you. It makes sense too.
At that point of the storyline, the Guado is after your party due to the storyline events - doubt they'd let you into their city
So you only have a very narrow window to backtrack unfortunately.
It's the pacing. The game is just paced extremely well.
I passed on getting Extract Ability for Wakka. Bad move.
Maybe I can get it for Kimahri!

Do the PS3 and Vita versions share a trophy list?
I've been thinking the same thing all afternoon. They must be an addition/balance change. Not surprising, either. I remember never having an issue getting ability spheres in the original. When I needed one, I had one and that was it. It was weird.
Now not having one can be the difference between moving on the grid and not.
Yes
I remember being short on them in the original this early on in the game. Did you have the PAL or US version?
Ability Spheres were really odd in the original game. Random encounters that drop them don't become available until Mi'ihen, so you either need to get a lucky drop off of the Piranhas from the start of the game or Overkill certain bosses to get extra drops.
If you don't, even with minimal leveling, you'll still run out of them before reaching Mi'ihen.

Damn. I'll have to try and get them before my wife does then.
US version.
Man, I don't remember ever having an issue with them before. But I also do this weird self-imposed grinding there where I level everyone up 4 S.levels before proceeding to the boss of the area I'm in.
I'm only now realizing how weird that is.
Any advice on getting the crest for Tidus? I've beaten all of the chocobo racer's stuff but I just can't get it down to zero. Every guide I've read says that the first five balloons are the easiest and most essential ones to get but she is always outpacing me. I rarely can get them but the ones at the end are easy. Am I missing something?

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
is it just me, or are the load times on PS3 a tad long ? I don't remember them being this long on the PS2 ..
then again it's been almost 8 years since I last replayed the PS2 version.

Why did you need to grind? You should have enough through naturally playing.
You need to give him 10,000 before Mushroom Rock Road. I had 2,000
What did you lose all your money on? I easily gave him 10,001 before Mushroom Rock Road. 1000 first time, 1000 second time, 8001 third time with a decent chunk left over.
I bought some equipment from shops...
