Lulu uses dolls as weapons throughout the game. The dolls are based on characters from other games in the Final Fantasy series; Lulu's starting weapon is the only appearance of the regularly featured 'moogle' characters, and her most advanced weapon is a rendition of the interchangeable Onion Knights from Final Fantasy III, which was unreleased in America until 2006.

Final Fantasy's first ps2 game a winner in nearly every regard.

What to say about Square's first of four ff's for the PS2...well for one it is easily the best out of the one's I have played. Never played the online one, I thought 10-2 was really good too, but not quite up to this one and part twelve seemed a step backward in terms of story and character graphics. This is the first ff to feature voice dialog and it works rather well considering it is the first time it has been used in a ff. The characters are all good from Tidus, to Wakka, Yuna, the cute Rikku, the rather hot goth Lulu, the beastly Kimariah, to one of the most cool characters ever in a Final Fantasy Auron. The story is top notch a young man transported to a world where there is a beast named Sin terrorizing the world and a young woman must make a pilgrimage to the city the young man may have come from to find the means to defeat the monster for another ten years of peace. The fighting is turn based and another first as you have the ability to switch in and out characters in the middle of battle, thus allowing you to level everyone up during every battle...also everyone gets to contribute to the victory. You level via a grid based system that is easy to pick up too. The game is rather linear in nature as you pretty much stay on course and you can't really do any of the extra stuff until you get the airship at near the end of the game. Which this does not bother me as I prefer this to the more open ended role playing games. You can though play a game called blitz ball for a little extra fun...I am rather good at this game and it is a really fun mini game. So for a well rounded Final Fantasy with good graphics good story and very few weaknesses try X.
