Is it too much to ask that a game have both a good storyline and have interesting game play? Is it?
Final Fantasy X had damn gorgeous graphics and a very interesting storyline, but actually playing the game was completely boring. I'd only go through a little bit of game play, with only the few options given to me, and then there'd be a cut scene that was longer than my game play. It's not like I even had choices of where to go. Everything had to be done in the exact order and method the game pre-described. I basically felt like I was watching a movie that took an extra amount of effort to get through. Very disappointing first experience into this lauded series of games.
Soul Reaver 2 also felt like it would be a great movie, but I not only got bored waiting to play, but playing.
I really wanted to like both of these games. I played for longer than I was interested because I hoped for improvement. They both failed me miserably. <sigh>
