Ok the list was constructed by whoever won the game of the year for each of the years this century on gamefaqs. And i am happy that SMG is not winning it is overrated and mediocre at best.

@Auron: what you said makes sense, but it doesn't really work. For instance, there have been AT LEAST 10 games this year that were better than FFX, that didn't get GotY. So, if you're right, it's a fundamentally flawed basis. What they should have done was offer up a few obvious choices, and allow people to add their own.

Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

lol, Gamefaqs poll are always WAY geared towards RPG's... since RPG are the genre where you need a faq the most. I remember that Cloud Strife won the first charater battle that had... nuff said... Cloud was cool, but at the time he was in ONE game... and besides his cool appearance he was pretty lame.

psn- tokila

add me, the more the merrier.

I dunno, as I actually see FFX as game of the Century as compared to the others they listed, some people might dissagree with it's characters, but I consider the game to be flawless in it's execution.

I saw no glitches... like... none... creepy...

The environments were GORGEOUSLY detailed, the worlds were colorfull and vibrant with most of the mosters full of character (beasts fealt like beasts, aeons were breathtaking (best ifrit I've ever seen in a FF) )

The love interest wasn't bad :P a bit cheesy, but it needed to be. The characters had a decent ammount of feel to them (should you choose to give it) and the ending was emotional and great (IMO).

Best Mini-game Evar!!! I friggin loved blitzball XD

And the whole game fealt empowering. Every overdrive used (great system btw), every spell casted, every Aeon summoned... simply brilliant!

Turn based combat seemed to flow, the game was just perfect for a JRPG, and the only thing that could get in the way was a person's personal taste, but from a designer/development standpoint, I don't see anything that rivals it's quality in presentation. It took what I thought the PS2 at the time was capable of and shattered it :P Hell the game STILL looks good by today's standards. Definately worthy of "Best FF in the Series", although I prefered 6 :P I can see why it gets the praise it honestly deserves.
