ok.....where could you have found the second puma piece that the hades guy said to bring him one more so that he can make something very special for you, i searched for A LONG TIME, and I still couldn't find one, I even went on a whole bunch of strategy guides to see whether they stated the location, but in a way i guess FFIX was better because some of the good items in the game were easier to get, although some were downright impossible (steiner's best sword could only be gotten if you got to the dream world in 30 hours or less!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), but what was good about FFIX, was that you could use 4 characters instead of the usual 3, and there were more characters that you could control other than the main team, (e.g. beatrix, zidanes friends-forgot their names-, and some other people), and some parts in FFIX were halarious, such as when eiko wrote zidane the love letter and a whole bunch of people got it, and thats how beatrix and steiner fell in love

, in a way i guess both games were good.
