Final Fantasy VII is a better RPG than Mass Effect 2

The materia system in FFVII allows for more meaningful character customization than 'powers' in ME2. At the level cap of 30, Shephard has 51 squad points available, enough to max out all but one of the default 5 powers for any class. Should Square Enix make ME3?

True. It's also true that Mass Effect 2 is a better game than FF VII. It's as if being TB and offering customization doesn't make a game good automatically.

Final Fantasy 7 may be the better RPG, but Mass Effect 2 is the better Game.

Indeed racofer. Mass Effect 2 is a great Game. Final Fantasy 7 is crap. 8 is way better. Just ask Volourn.

How's XIII, Jaesun? Got your copy yet?

Yes but my Copy of Myst III came in at the same time yesterday in the mail. So once I get really stuck in Myst III, I'll take a break from it and load up the epic liner train wreck that is FF XIII.

Final Fantasy VII definitely has stronger exploration elements than Mass Effect 2, which is why I consider it a better RPG.
