I'm gonna get one, but which one should I get? Give me good reasons in either favor, and on Boktai's side, I need a tan.

I don't really know much about either of them, but I heard FFTA was funner.

There's some channel here called Tech TV, and it has this show called X-Play. They talk about all kinds of games, they review, preview, etc.
They said that Botkai comes with a chip, which senses the sun. You're fighting vampires most of the game, so let's say you're fighting a vampire boss, you can run outside, and then your sun gauge goes up, and you gain powers, and it looked SO cool. Stupid me bought Pokemon Sapphire instead of Boktai. ^^'
I downloaded FFTA yesterday. Didn't like it very much. Go with Boktai.

Instinctively I would have gone for FF:TA, as I've never heard of Boktai. However, Zeephos points out that Boktai has vampires, which means it must be cooler. I'll need to check out what it is first, though. FF:TA I'd imagine to be quite heavy-duty and slow-paced, so it depends what kind of games you like to play.
EDIT: Just checked out Boktai on Gamespot. It's now on my list of cool GBA games to look out for. Along with Soccer Kid.

I don't know if I'm going to end up liking FF:TA...from what I've read the story is just so...childish, in comparison to the first. Never heard of Boktai, but I guess I should check it out...

I've always been a fan of vampire slaying, and my strategy skills are subpar, even though I own at Ogre Battle 64. The sun system sounds cool. Get Boktai.

even though I own at Ogre Battle 64. If you own that game, I will rip your feet off through your mouth. I have been looking for it FOREVER. It was more fun than FFT. -_-

I've already bought FF:TA, and it is SUPER AWESOME. One of my favorite games, for sure. I also plan to get Boktai, as soon as I save up enough money. Anyway, it depends on what mood you're in. If you're in the mood for something more platformish, then go for Boktai. If you want a challenging, time-consuming RPG, go for FF:TA.

I tried FFTA and I liked it,I was glad to see they made it easier then some parts in the original FFT(well,as far as I played in FFTA it's easier),but was disappointed with the story and the fact that sometime you don't get the same spells as in another battle(for me anyway,my white mage had Cure and in the next battle he had Protect instead). I might get myself Boktai,but not before sometimes(I'm saving money). Can't really say which you should go with,but I think playing with the sun and all seem interesting,so maybe go with Boktai.

I hate it when the votes come to a stalemate. I like long RPGs, but 3 of my friends have FFTA, one is getting Boktai, but does anyone know if you can link up on Boktai? But on the other hand I also like 'new age' games.(My personal term for unorthodox video games like DDR and Boktai, meaning it's not a traditional videogame, such as Pong.)

Why not call them "Unique" or "Unorthodox" games? And no, I don't think you can link up with Boktai. There is lots and lots of link up fun with FFTA though.
