Final Fantasy XII Presumably the last "main" game to be released on the PS2, FF12 broke the tradition of Battle Screens. It was also the sixth game ever to receive a perfect 40/40 score from the Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu.

I made the mistake of googling the guy who did the va for auron and i was rather dissapointed, but perving over a computer game character is soooo wrong. Im assuming it's the same guy who does Balthier? who incidentally also sounds sexy...........

I need shooting haha- im supposed to be all growed up.......

Yes, I thought it was a definite improvement over X. In fact, it’s one the elements I loved the most about XII. Each actor seemed to be perfectly cast for the roles they were intended to portray, especially Fran. I thought her voice and accent was the most interesting out of them all...

It was great, except for the breathing scenes, it was like they were breathing in your ear, over dramatic. I really like the voice acting, except for Vaan.

I absolutely loved Fran's accent, Hot or what, her character as a whole is excellent

I agree that it was better, but I'm not sure if it's the VOICE ACTING. More the animation. I loved the voices in X, they just didn't sync with the mouth movements. I thought each part was well acted, and the voices suited the characters perfectly. I especially loved the actors used for Auron, Yuna, Wakka Rikku and Lulu. Seymour had a perfectly suited voice, too. Tidus' suited him, and I don't think I hated his voice... But hearing many negative (and true) comments on it has slightly altered my view.

The voice acting in XII was also very good. I thought Larsa's voice was perfect. Penelo's was a lot like Rikku's, which meant I felt she was unoriginal. Fran's voice I loved. The accent was just perfect for her character. Balthier's was awesome too. I do think the voice acting was a little more expressive, given the lack of expression between the characters.

I 100% think that some of FFX's dialogue was utterly lametastic, and Yuna's voice actress was particularly poor in some areas.
FFXII's is better, but it didn't blow me away. The way Ashe gasps at things is far too loud, and slightly disturbing. Balthier is the best, naturally for his english accent. *waves flag*

Really? For me (I've got a Californian accent), Icelandic accents are much easier to penetrate than, for example, Welsh accents.

I agree, the voice overs in FFXII have improve greatly. As said above, the lip sync fit the voice in FFXII.

Fran voice suit her very well. Balthier voice was sexy. XD
