Well, i'm stuck between 3 pretty good games.

How did i come to this decision?[Pros]

-FF10 is one of the best ps2 games and i coincidentally have the guide at home. . .for extra stuff. . .

-FF12 has amazing graphics and i didnt get really far in it until i lost it.[maybe 8 hours]

-Shadow of the Colussus because IGN ranked it as the best ps2 game EVER.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By the way, I don't own any of them. I'll probably get through two of them. unlikely all three since 10/12 are SO long.

Bad things i think about the three choice[Cons]

-FF10 its pretty old so graphcs arent that good

-FF12 one major flaw is the lack of character developement.

-Colossus pales in comparison to the other two, story-wise.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, Which one should i get first? Please state WHY

This belongs in the legacy console, forum.... I found SOC fairly boring.... There is really nothing to do in that game, but search and fight bosses. It's Game world is fairly empty. And when you fight 3 or 4 bosses (don't remember which) you get something like a 5 second cut scene as a reward. Then repeat until you beat all of them (forgotten how many 14? maybe. Some battles are less epic than others.).... then you get a long final cut scene with no multiple endings. Takes about 8 hours to finish, maybe 12 if you try to find and figure out all the Bosses, yourself.... and maybe 5 hours if you cheat and look everything up online. FFX can take anywhere between 30-110 hours, depending on how much of a completionist (mainly because of the Blitzball minigame) you are, and again depending on the use of guides. FFXII takes about 30-400 hours; ditto on guides and doing the side stuff. FF12 has a lot more to do as far as completing stuff, but it's very repetitive and lacks dialog scenes that FFX had nor the story progression. Personally, I preferred Persona 3 and 4 over all 3 of these games..... And maybe Ar Tonelico 2, for it's Story.
