I liked both of the systems.. it gave a element of luck in the game... and gaining 3-4 levels in boss fights was awesome... crisis core really sold my psp for me it was my first final fantasy game that i owned and I loved it

you could say that game was the reason I love final fantasy but nope.. i was playing my brothers copy of FFX 2 years before
reading this thread makes me wanna hunt down my copy of it again.. that game was sooo awesome and the characters were amazing zack was what a FF Main character should be... Angel was an awesome character and he really helped zack during the game.. Genesis the way he fights sephiroth in that CGI Secne was awesome. the gameplay was very good.. kingdom hearts like with that mteria system I loved.. you could customize the character to your liking.. also the DMW system gave that element of luck in the game... and half of his limit breaks were amazing
