Having already been a huge FF fan by the time X released, my impressions of the game were pretty good. I remember being astounded by the amount of voice acting in the game. For me, at least, it was maybe the first full JRPG I played that was almost entirely voice-acted.

From a technical standpoint, the game/engine is quite a mess, but the story-telling is top-notch, especially for it's time.

Character progression is unique in that instead of gaining levels in the traditional sense, you'll gain "sphere levels", similar to the system in FF13. Most modern RPGs are a push-over, but this one is has a decent amount of difficulty, such that you can't faceroll through the game, and you'll need to pay attention to your gear and character builds.

It's fun and cheap; I recommend it.
