Sephiroth is still the one and only. Tetsuya Nomura is a genius.

If you forced yourself throufh the first two episodes, you should play the last. It's the best and really entertaining. It's like a reward for playing them.

I didnt "force" myself. I liked the story and the gameplay was pretty good. I just didnt find the characters visually appealing which usually turns me away, but the story is well-written.

Did you see the third game? The art style is perfect! I wish it was like that in all the episodes. The game is maybe the best looking PS2 ever, God of War 2 included. So art+engine are making this a damn beautiful game. And the story is going from peak to peak in the third game. I didn't think they could make such a good game after the second one, but it definitely is.

Sephiroth was fail. He wasn't even the real villian! God damn, Jenova is so ignored.

He's my favourite villain though, and my favourite boss (And final boss in the game). Jenova doesn't even begin to reach the level of awesome that Sephiroth is. And I'd say Sephiroth IS the main villain of the game.

I think FFXII looks better, but I havent seen the third game in person so I could be wrong.

How did sephiroth fail? He is the majority's favorite villain, ever since him people have started having bosses with silver hair, he's become an icon, and I'm pretty sure that the last thing you fight in FFVII is Sephiroth.

You can see Xenosaga III's potential in the cutscene, most of them are real time. Two or three times you have a fps drop in such a cutscene, but it's really rare. The rest looks amazing though, they pushed the engine so far...
X3 even has some sort oft bloom/hdr effect in real time, never seen this on any other PS2 game
