You have, 'cause it is out on PS2 in the US. It came bundled with the PS2's HDD for $99 total, and turned out to be pretty much the only game to get online support for the PS2 before the service was abandoned. Don't listen to Tyler. He's on crack

I might also point out that FFXI isn't out on PS2.
Rofl. Mhm...Yes, it is.
It's also on PC too.
Anywho, I'd say that XII wasn't really a low point in the game. The battle system I actually liked. It's the only thing that really kept me going, honestly. As for the story? It was one of the worst ever.

I didn’t mind the new battle system. In fact, I found it extremely flexible in terms of how easy or difficult you’d like the setup as a whole to be. You could essentially have the character set on autopilot through Gambits and for the most part, push them around as they pretty much auto everything, or you could go Gambit free and manually control everything as done in the traditional sense. Overall, I found to be a nice and welcome change.

can't say i really liked the battle system all that much - if it aint broke, don't fix it. It has it's advantages, but i just completed the game about 10 mins ago (woohoo) but i just WATCHED my chars do all the hard work, i only intervened on the last battle with the undying when i threw in afew quickenings and a couple of megalixers. It does take the annoyance out of the constant random battles, but i really think they could of found a happy medium somewhere......
Can't say i will be trading in my copy tho, i like to complete the collection where possible

It took me a moment to get into it as well. It is something you need to get used too. After awhile I could not get enough batteling. =).
Only low point was how the story really lacked.

This battle was something desperately needed - long gone were random battles and in came hilarious running away from monster chases, which is what should really happen when you're in battles. Of course, random battles are fun, but I needed something different ya know?

There is nothing wrong in FFXII battle system, it is very good. I liked random battles but it is nice that you can run through areas withouth screen breaking. Only thing that lacks is story but only in some points. The beginning and some places at the middle and towards the end story is really good and captivating.
I liked random battles, but sometimes they reallllyyyy annoyed me to no end.
As to this game, there are none and it's really great not having to load battle screens and stuff. It saves much more time.
