I recently read that there is a mode in FF:IX that lets you assign different characters to different controllers. I think this would be pretty fucking fun to do with a friend. Has anybody tried this? Any opinions on FF:IX as a whole?
I think ima buy it depending on the advice from you guys
Also are there any other RPGs out there that you guys are aware of that offer similar modes of play (assigning different controllers to different characters that is)

i disagree, i think it'd be fun
EDIT:
Also, what about Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World? Do you guys know if it has that mode too? Is it good?
i haven't heard many good things about the sequel to tos, so tog would be best it seems confuseddood;
FFIX is great. wrench; I pirated it on my PSP a year or two ago and then bought a physical copy last year.
I looooooooooove me some FFIX.

symphonia 2 is pretty much ass
typically only two party members, helped along by two monsters, and the monster system pretty much sucks
i know you have a 360, go with tales of vesperia if you're going to play a tales game. and yes, they are entirely multiplayer if you want them to be.

HDified + bonus content
earthbound also has that feature if I'm not mistaken.
I think I've heard about that feature. Not sure if it's a legit thing though, never tried it.
Final Fantasy IX is my favorite Final Fantasy and it's the only one I really could stand playing for a long period of time.

lol, no
the "multiplayer" in earthbound amounts to the fact that the game accepts inputs from both controller ports, meaning second player can do everything the first player can
which basically means if you're going to play it with a friend, you'd better decide who does what beforehand, because otherwise you'll interfere with each other
man, waiting to select a button from a menu in repetitive battles while your friend does everything else in what is meant to be a single-player experience just sounds like so much fun

i can see it being somewhat enjoyable just to experience the story together, while maybe one person controls ness in battle, the other person controls paula...something like that.
and they could alternate who controls ness on the field, maybe. idk. it sounds like it could be enjoyable with someone who really enjoys the game.

except this way you get to experience it with another person

i was just being honest
okay, have fun being bored
unless you think ffix will suddenly turn into the competitive lighting-fast paced action of melee or something

he basically made a jab at you by insinuating that you don't like the idea of multiplayer in rpgs because you have no friends
i figured it was a weak attempt that was just plain uncalled for and betrayed a bitterness he harbors against you because of your differing opinions in this thread
bassir;
i was being slightly genuine
i enjoy experiencing videogames with my friends and i've read elsewhere that this kind of multiplayer in particular is enjoyable
so my comment seemed logical
It was a fairly obvious attempt at a light insult, there's no getting around that lol

yeah, it was meant to be insulting, but it also had a point behind it.
because friends are necessary for multiplayer
just sayin'
i actually had a lot of fun playing tales of vesperia with my friend john, but i mean we didn't play the whole game or anything, i was just helping him get through the ex dungeon, the hidden one that's post-main game

who says they're strictly meant to be played with just one person?
if someone can get enjoyment out of doing multiplayer why mock them?

If you think you would have fun playing FFIX with your friends then go ahead
[spoiler]why dont you just play Gauntlet instead[/spoiler]

my room mates are fuckers
we were all around the same level and then one night i went out without them and they stayed in and leveled their gauntlet characters to like 20 levels above my archer
so now i refuse to play with them

well, i'm sure an action rpg like that is better to play with a friend than say a menu-based one like ffix

yeah definitely
it's much easier to get awesomely huge combos when you have a second player, too
me and my friend did this. it is kind of a shit idea lol but 9 is great
i just ordered ff:ix
i've been reading about it and i think i'll just play it by myself since it seems like such a good game

IMO I second Kaz's reopinion.

lol i could play it on my computer but im not too big a fan of playing console games on pc.
im tempted to get a psp or whatever just to play the older games i love.
yeah, psps are rather cheap now and can be rather handy for playing older games
Notsid, if you don't mind ~piracy~ you could get a PSP 1000 or 2000 and put custom firmware on it and get all sorts of PS1 games not on the PSN.
is it rather difficult to install firmware onto the psp?
also is the 3000 model not able to play pirated games or whatever?
u could get a ps2 at goodwill for like 50 bucks and then ffix for like 30

No, it's really easy if your firmware is under 5.00. Even if it's higher it's relatively easy.
3000 has more protection, so it's rather limited to what you can do with it. 2000 and 1000 are the best for cfw.
