I'm 48 hours into Final Fantasy XII. Vaan is on level 44 and the rest of the team is on 33. This game is absolutely amazing and addicting.

I'm leveling up still.. Vaan is at 11... I wanna get to 15 before moving forward... I'm basically gauging my level by attacking the Werewolves in Giza... I still can't beat them... until I do... I'm gonna keep leveling up h:

man, with all these crazy consels comming out I need to save up for a large screen TV with a surround system before I can even think of upgrading to a PS3 or a Wii. can you honestly go out, spend that cash and only play the games on a tube style TV?
what is the consensus for the best type of TV for gaming? plasma? DLP? LCD? I tend to think LCD would be the way to go. I've been seeing commericals for Visio LCD TVs that they sell at costco, and walmart for pretty reasonable money for a decent size tv.

get libra asap. When you finally get a chance, start leveling up at "Phon Coast." Relatively easy enemies (depending on your strengths/defense/level) they drop lots of rare loots and high EXP (400 - 1000EXP) per monster. I've been whoring this area for a good 3 hours now leveling up and buying new armor, weapons, and magicks.

learn how to use the gambit system as well. Your first priority should be Ally -> Cure

the game also gets better after a couple of hours. The game has a great plot...kinda just sucks you in.

I have the license for it but I don't have the abilities or the weapons that can do it :wtc: I'm in too early into the game to even know where "Phon Coast" is

EDIT: My Gambits are set to Ally <40% ->Cure h:
