With SquareEnix making so many games that are spinoffs of the Final Fantasy series (and not all good...I'm looking at you, X-2!), I feel they missed a huge opportunity to make both a spin-off and the start of a new genre for the company.
A Stand-alone Blitzball game.
Think about it. Enhance the controls, add teams, have season mode, career mode, bigger draft pool (pardon the pun!), this could have been epic! I mean, I know I played at LEAST 4 games of Blitzball every time I loaded my save file, and I always started my time with FFX playing a game and ended my time playing a game.
You know what? I can't even say they've entirely "missed" the chance yet...if they decided to do it now, I'd STILL be first in line to pick this game up.
Sigh...all this talk has made me look over at my PS2 game stack...I gotta play some Blitzball now. Anyone agree with me that this game could have been amazing?
