FFIX - N/A
I have yet to play this game, and just like with V, I'm not sure how I've never played it. From what I hear, it doesn't sound like a game I'd like too much, unlike V, which I just have some weird interest in, although after amazing titles like FFVII and VIII, I can't imagine they could have screwed up too much on this game. I'll definately give it a shot when it comes on PSN.
FFX: 9.5
This game is better than VIII, so I felt I had to round up to 9.5... but where do I begin? I loved the battle system in X, it was very unique and allowed a lot of planning. FFX has the best non-traditional leveling system and it also gave the player a feeling of accomplishment as well as understanding as they watched the sphere grid fill up. Blitzball still steals hours of my life away, as well as the monster arena. While not all of the characters are some of my favorites (Kimahri.. or however you spell his name), it still has some very awesome characters like Rikku, Tidus, and Yuna, as well as some of the most memorable scenes in gaming.
It's a good thing that FFX is really good, because otherwise the series footprint on the PS2 era would be pretty poor.
