Well, for me mini-games in the any game are very important. Lets say if you're bored of lvluping chars, that's the funnest thing to do at that time.

Or what do you think?

Which mini-game do you think was best?

I think mini games in FF are a great idea because when you want to get away from the storyline you can play a card game or blitzball.

What do you think which wasa the best minigame made in FFs?

For me Bliztball rocks @ss!!!:)

You should qualify it 'coz I cannot see how the Blitzball in FFX-2 could rock. I do not know if I missed something, but I did not see an option allowing me to manually control the players in X-2 blitzball.

I enjoy mini-games a lot, as long as they serve a purpose. For example, I hated the card game Tetra Master in FFIX because it really didn't do anything. For being such a realized feature of the game, it wasn't even an asset. Triple Triad in FFVIII was fun and rewarding to play because you could convert cards into one-of-a-kind items. Blitzball in FFX was fun because you had to play it to progress the storyline and it gave you one-of-a-kind items. Tetra Master really didn't; the only thing you could get was that Hunter Rank S key item that had no canonical function.

So yes, I'm all for mini-games, if they reward you with something worth getting.

(No, you don't get anything special for scoring over 7000 in FFVII's Speed Square. I've tried!)

I never played a mini-game for the prize, for me it was like resting, having fun or something.

I loved the Gold Saucer in VII! So many fun things to do, from racing chocobos, to all the arcade games, to that shooting game/roller coaster. The card games in VIII and IX were kinda fun, they would require some strategy at times. Blitzball in X was pretty fun(until my team got too good and games became too easy...), I didn't like any minigames in X-2, nome that I can think of...

mini-games are a nice addition, but if there are none, it won't bother me at all.

I really liked that submarine game at the gold saucer in VII, but my favorite is the snowboarding game!

I liked Blitzball, but my team was getting better and better, and Blitzball was getting easier and more boring therefore. Once I got Wakka's celestial weapon taken care of, I never really went back to blitzball...

I dont think blitzball in x-2 was even a minigame, I would say it was like a serie that you watched on TV, theres more in to the cheering than playing: "You big stupid red arrow f...ing cover him!"

I like the majority of the minigames in the FF games. I remember the first time I played blitzball I hated it because I thought it was confusing and I didn't really know what I was doing, so I ignored it for the entire game. Then once I got the airship I decided to try it again because I found out it was the only way to get Wakka's other overdrives. Eventually once I started learning how to play and getting better characters for my team I started to like it and I eventually got obsessed with it lol.

I have to admit I didn't really pay much attention to the card game in FFVIII, and when I replay that I'm going to try and master it because I barely played it at all. Also when I play FFIX I'm going to play the card game during the adventure instead of ignoring it like I did with FFVIII.

Overally I like the minigames because they give you something to do other than the main game, and imo they are part of what makes the FF series so special.

Oh, and what you guys are talking about now... I thought they ruined Blitzball in FFX-2, I was incredibly mad when I found out that they changed it. Overall I think FFX-2 is a pretty big failure as a FF game.

I am actually in agreement here. I thought it was incredibly ridiculous that Square tried to pull us into the story by showing some movie hinting at Tidus possibly still being alive, and then they don't really focus on Tidus at ALL for the rest of the game until the VERY end, and that is only if you do a bunch of random boring crap to get one of the better endings.
