That's how I turn on my electronics too. Couple smacks here and there, a few fists to the controls, and they work like a charm

First thing I thought of during that scene was Fry from Futurama. If Tidus wasn't under water, I'm positive he would have said "Ayyy!"

I ended up doing this, and I also had had Tidus cast Hastega so he didn't even get a turn in before he was dead. There's got to be a good way to beat him without just overdriving through it. I guess I'll check yt.
X end game is way harder than XIII's. The battles in XIII are approachable and don't require too much granding or experience imo...Plus the celestial weapons are ridiculously hard to get.
XII is ridiculous too..but I still find X harder.

Brotherhood is the best sword in the game until you can either get Celestial Weapons, or make equivalent weapons. No one ditches the Brotherhood for very long until then. +10 and +5 Strength make it amazing. Waterstrike kinda hurts, but that's a small price to pay.
Damn, I think you know you've played too much Blitzball in the past when you own the Goers in the story match. The AI was as bad as ever.
I never ditched it until pretty damn late...?

I did it like so:
0. Make sure everyone has something with Zombie Ward equipped (not ABSOLUTELY necessary, but it helps).
1. Start with Tidus, Lulu, and Wakka up front.
2. Have Lulu cast Bio (he's actually vulnerable to poison, helps a lot).
3. Have Tidus cast Hastega on team.
4. Spam Silence Buster every time Wakka's turn comes up (to keep him from casting Flare, Reflect, and Dispel on your Hasted team).
5. Start beating the shit out of him.
If you want, switch out Lulu for Auron after she casts Bio, and Haste him up too.
With this strategy, I got the job done in a couple minutes. Not a single summon was used.

X's endgame is 'hard' because it requires annoying minigames and really tedious stat grinding to achieve. (Unless you Zanmato everything I suppose) The actual fights are probably some of the most disappointing extra content I've ever experienced.

You're a bad man!
Weird. I tried using Bio fury and every one missed him, so I just went ahead with the summon overdrives. It must be different than just normal Bio I guess :/
imagine having to figure out what armors to use, how to approach each fight on your own without any guides.
That's extremely challenging and time consuming to do.The fights aren't easy even with the right stats when you don't know what to do.Tons of enemies to fight in the coliseum as well.
IIRC Bio has a 100% chance of poisoning anything that isn't immune. There's no reason to ever use Bio fury. (Actually, there's almost never a reason to use Fury period)
Using Quick Hit with Auto-Phoenix isn't much strategy to figure out. =/

About a third, maybe halfway.
lol, I remember thinking the exact same thing. Really?! Your just going to pound on it till it works? smh
Man, I still think
was a missed opportunity. There's something about
Anyway I just reached the Thunder Plains, can I start the 200 dodge now or does it need to be done later?
Rikku/Wakka
Wakka/Lulu that feels extremely forced whereas Rikku/Wakka had the whole him overcoming his racism.

Tidus eventually becomes a decent character, but everything about him in the first 3 or 4 hours makes him seem like the biggest, dumbest piece of shit.
oh yes, I know. It's why I can never fully play ff10. I always end up putting it down. Back when in came out and now. I just can't play that game. I hate most of the characters and think they are bar-none the overall worst designed cast of characters in any FF. I essentially got this disc to play through ffx-2 again. I really don't like Tidus, or his voice, or the things he says. Some of his battle audio is down right embarrassing and sounds like a Saturday morning cartoon. Riku is ok though.
X-2 never tried to take itself (too) seriously and ends up becoming a fun romp through a pretty cool and well designed world. Also, I have a weakness for any FF with a Job System.
You can but it's recommended to wait until you get a No Encounters armour. Since the battles can throw you off the rhythm (if using the crater trick) or a flash could appear immediately as the battle ends (which will screw you over if you're not ready).
Alright cool, thanks!

I wonder if FFX was inspired by Miyazaki films at all. The overarching story and environmentalist themes, even some of the art (just got to the Djose highroad and it seems like it would be right at home in a Ghibli film) seem very Miyazaki-esque, like stuff out of Nausicaa or Princess Mononoke.

I would say the cast of FFXIII are by far much, much worse. Also FFX-2 world is the same world as FFX by the way.

When you get the ball, press triangle and switch to manual A. I am now winning games easily,
Well, because she is lol. It has been 11-12 years.
I'll agree that 13 is up there as well.
On the world, lol, yes, I know it's the same world, but it's the difference in perspective of that characters and what they are trying to do. Also, my problem was never with the world itself. I think that aspect of x/x2 is great. Spira is a nice looking, colorful, and fun place to explore.

So you lose the Jecht shot when you reset in Blitzball. Is there anyway to get it back?
You shouldn't lose it. You should just need to get to level 3 again.
Level up to level 3
Just did a reset myself. Couldn't get Status Reel and it was annoying. After resetting it suddenly appeared !

You don't lose it, you just need to get back up to level 3. Fortunately Tidus starts at level 2 on a reset, and is on the verge of leveling up, so basically a pass or two should be more then enough to bump him back up to three where you can just re-equip the Jecht Shot again.

You know I don't think I'll ever need more then 999 MP.
I mean when you factor the One MP Cost ability, I don't think I'll ever run into a situation in that I'll need to cast that many spells in battle, and the worst case scenario I'll just use Osmose which with a Break Damage Limit weapon seems to absorb 5000 mp depending on enemy, so yeah.
You think it be a good idea to just use Clear Spheres on the redundant and excessive MP nodes and replace them with HP or other important stats?

Chocobo Catcher has to be the worst minigame I have ever played. The controls are HORRRIBLE

I did that earlier today. So. Many. Tries. And then when I was ready to give up and wasn't trying too hard I got that 0 time. 11 balloons, 0 birds.
Seymour Flux on my first try. This is the farthest I've ever been in this game.
