I'm a hardcore Final Fantasy junkie, except XI, didn't want to go online with FF. Didn't appeal to me.
But one of the greatest, and hardest to find, that I ever played was Lunar:Silver Star Story Complete. If you've played it you understand. If you haven't, find someone who has it, you will not be disappointed. I promise!

A warning to anyone who tries to pick this up: if you don't use a guide, then save a backup file after the last boss (don't overwrite your best save though).
Anyone who has played this knows why, but I don't want to spoil it. I'm just saving everyone else some frustration. |

i've seen lunar before and it looked like a very cheesy game...and the story didn't seem to appeal to me either... |

I'll have to look into a few of these. I need something to fill the empty void that losing Guitar Hero has carved into me.
You know, now that I think about it, I still have FFX, FFX-2, and Xenosaga Ep. 1 I need to finish. Or start, in the case of X-2.

I can honestly say you need to stop playing if you haven't finished Symphonia yet. I loved that game so much...
FFTA's not bad either. I think I got to level 57 or so before it was stolen from me.

So did I... until my brother made me lose my place.
I was trying for 100% completion in that game last year. For those who don't know, 100% completion requires 3 perfectly coordinated playthroughs. I was in the middle of my 2nd run, and my brother asks me if I want to trade my GameCube for his XBOX for a while, and I agreed. I got the GameCube back half a year later, and I realized that I forgot everything that I had organized for the game.
To this day, I have eight freakin' guides on my computer for different parts of Tales of Symphonia that list everything that I still need to get. I just don't remember what I planned for my 2nd and 3rd runs, and I don't want to put in the effort to try to continue.
Don't let that stop you from playing it at least once, though. That game kicks ass, even if you only have the experience of finishing it once. |

I don't think I 100% completed it...
But I did manage to have about 3,500,000 Gald on my second runthrough...

That was helpful for the beginning of my low-level playthough. Without the stupid-high levels of Gald that I had, I wouldn't have survived all of the boss fights without powerlevelling. |

Yeah, it was extremely nice.
Keyword being "was", because I lost my memory card about a week after getting it.

Heh... I had a pretty sweet game of the PSX FFT going a few years back when someone stole my memory card (along with my PS2, GC, LCD screen, and assorted accessories and games). Um, yeah, it sucked.
I know I need to finish ToS (among other things)... ADD + lack of general motivation to do anything work pretty effectively at inhibiting such things.

Yeah, ADD blows. I think I may have a mild case of it, since it's rather hard for me to continue typing this...
...
Hey! A raccoon!
...But in all seriousness, I do think I have some form of ADD.
