For those of you playing FFX....
How many hours do you have in the game? gadzooks, i just broke over 71 hours! I'm having fun leveling up and doing all the side quests, haven't beaten the game yet, but i'm in no hurry. Tidus only has a few more spheres left to crack open, though those are mostly level 4 spheres blocking techniques and such. Now i just need to obtain break hp level and break max damage and i'll be all set.

I was at around 16, but I started a new game w/ my roomate. We decided to decipher the Al Behd language early on. I didn't know this but:
Also, we are trying to change up the love points. I got rehooked on GTA3 this week and finally got to play MGS2, but FFX is waiting, and I will be back for it!

i finished FFX about 70 hours in. i started to complete all the side quests, but since i couldn't get anima (couldn't go back into the first temple), i decided i'd just go through it again and get everything.
i mean, i don't want to do the thunder plains mini game again. or the chocobo races again.

doh! well, is there anything that you can't do? i'd love to just start from where i am since my players are doing really well now. i'd hate to start over from scratch and watch tidus only do a couple hundred points of damage.

Anyway I've got 38 hours in so far because I've been distracted by a lot of side quests right now. I'm at the part

I was also busy getting Wakka's second overdrive (Attack Reel's) so I was busy playing blitz ball. I'm pretty good at it now, Tidus scored 5 goals in one game it was pretty cool. Another cool thing is the Al Bhed compilation sphere. My little sister is also playing on the same memory card I am on a different save file. So we use the compilation sphere and share the Al Bhed Primers from our save files in case we missed one . Its a nice touch!

little tip for yunalesca, she kills people who are NOT zomified. If they are zombies when she casts mega death they will not die... i found out the hard way as well :-\

I just finished the game, and the items you get from Lin / Rin after getting all 26 Al Bhed primers is 99x Underdog (Trick?) items. You can use 30, IIRC, to get a Double Overdrive addition to equipment. Not really worth the trouble to get a 100% complete collection, just get the ones you can as you work your way through so you can solve the Al Bhed word puzzles for items later on.

Theres a faq on gamefaqs.com with all the love points listed on it.
I'm like 60 hours in, right now doing the AP trick with Tidus. Ahhh, 99 S-levels in ten minutes is nice.

Yes the AP trick works. I have a Durandal with Triple AP and Overdrive-AP and my overdrive set on Ally, as well as 2 characters with auto-life. I fight Don Tonberry for about 10 minutes, reviving and blocking, and come out with full S-levels.

One of the AP tricks was capped. If you have overdrive to Ap, and kill off both of your other party, set the overdrive to Alone, and block constantly on a weak enemy, it limits your ap to about 30k or 1.5 S-levels.
