Final Fantasy VIII's main theme was love. There were alot more lovey-dovey moments in VIII than FFX. FFX should be up there, but there's no way it's more romantic than VIII.
As for Dante and Trish as a romantic couple? That's a big 'wtf!'
Dante and Trish have an...understanding.
Heck, a relationship like Naked Snake and EVA's from MGS3 had more romance in it than Dante and Trish, and even then, they hardly count as being in the top five love stories of all time.
Kotaku needs to play more games. XD
And agreed with Storm, wtf at Double Dragon.
I guess FF8 didn't cut the draw Gothic Girl, and i don't think Squall and Rinoa Beats Yuna and Tidus, i would them over FF8 any day.
But i guess its subject to your preference, i didn't think the Love story was even that great in FF8. And have i said why multiple times, so no need to explain my self.
Unlike FFX, where it all just seemed rushed. Tidus & Yuna got together only because there had to be a couple there, that's my impression at least.
All in all, maybe the ending was what gave FFX the edge.
Most people feel the same way as i do. I just didn't like she made him love her. I still think Rinoa and Seifer would have been a better fit.
Although I'm not a fan of some of Rinoa's ... uh ... "methods" in getting together with Squall, she hardly forced him into loving her. If he was being forced into doing something he didn't want, then surely he'd back out and say he's not interested in her?
And you're saying that Tidus and Yuna grew more than Squall and Rinoa? That's a laugh. Squall was an introverted emo jerk before he met Rinoa. Rinoa was a whiny spoilt brat before she met Squall. By the end of the game, they had grown into more open and caring people, and all because of their love for each other (and their team).
It's a joke to say that Tidus and Yuna grew more than that. I'm not downplaying Tidus and Yuna's relatiosnhip, but it was only a part of the whole Pilgrimage storyline, whereas FFVIII's main story revolved around Squall and Rinoa's romance and how they grew and changed as people because of it, (with the sorceress/Time Compression storyline coming in second).
Not to be derogative in any way, but Sora's reaction is the gayest I have ever witnessed a game character act, especially when a friend of equal importance was standing beside him.
FFX did have the sequel, a big part of which, was about possibly getting Tidus back somehow...And (spoiler warning)
She DOES, if you get 100% completion, or something....
In any case, meh, I'm sure there are much better lists out there >_>
Good list.
Reuniting them in FFX-2 was such a piss-poor way to continue the storyline. The FFX ending was emotional - Tidus and Yuna finally fell in love, only to have that taken away from them at the end. It's tragic.
