I felt the need to ask, am I the only one that said "F the game, I'M PLAYING BLITZBALL"?
I mean, when my brother got the game, I played a bit, found out about blitzball and played the hell out of it, basically not progressing through the story (I think i was in the thunder plains)
Of course about a year ago i started actually playing the game on a new save (as i forgot all the story from before, and had 0 gil left from Blitzballing in the other save)
