FFVIII, I am convinced has the buggiest FMVs of all time. I am pretty sure it is straight up a design flaw. I lost three copies of the game to that freezing action you're talking about.
It's not live-action fighting I mind, though. I'm a former WoW player among other things (although I don't like FPSs). It's the horrible mutant combination of menu-style and live-action that's causing me to become mutinous. Pick one, dang it! I've pretty officially defected to Dragon Age, but then again, the first game in that series was better than the second, so . . .
Finishing X first would make a difference, I think. The story and characters are really the strong point in X, for sure. I actually finished IX first, although I already owned VII and VIII at the time. Go figure!
