The suck of FFX-2

This gaiden game to FFX was released to supplement the hungers of nerds all around, who were super curious as to where Tidus fell to at the end of FFX (oh, right. Spoiler). Tidus disappeared and Yuna cried, yada yada.
Don't get me wrong, FFX is one of the best FF games in my own opinion, but the vomit that Square-Enix produced as a follow-up wasn't necessary. Yes, I did buy it, and yes, I did beat it, but that doesn't make it any less awful.
First of all, the game boasted its all female lead cast, with whiny Yuna and supersexed Rikku from the original, along with the new, darker balance, Paine, who looked like she really did bring the pain---in German, lesbian shizer-films. This female lead character cast was supposed to be SE's idea of feminism, and it failed miserably. What's the point of strong female leads if they're fairly useless? Come on, take a feather out of Eidos's book and make them hot and badass, like Lara Croft. Yuna with her guns (lol) named Tiny Bees is less intimidating and more fanboygasm.
Once you get past the characters, the game itself is a trainwreck. Your progress is based on percentages, which is fine, it's worked before, but the gameplay is horrifying. It's like the developers had an idea for a shit-storm one morning over a bowl of cereal and decided to waste lots of money on it.
You actually get graded on how well you can dance. Dance. Half of the game is the pseudo-Nazi Brother hitting on his half-cousin Yuna in broken English, and it's implied that he jizzes in his pants whenever she's around. Way to go, SE, you've turned FF into a back-alley blowjob.
As Yuna, you've set off with Team Titties to find spheres that may give you clues as to where Tidus went to, since she saw one that was apparently him struggling in a cage.
I did enjoy how you could play different jobs, but the spherechange idea was pretty weak. If you wanted to go from Samurai to White Mage, unless you had it coordinated perfectly (amongst one of about fifty pointless spheregrids), you had to wait about four turns, which usually ended up in your own annilation.
This game lacked substance and any sense of adventure, really. Even the FFVII spin-offs worked better than this, so, I ask you, SE, please, don't ever make another side-story as crappy as this.
