Probably one of my favorite games to this day. Really enjoyed the pod racing in Episode I and this game was more than little me could have ever asked for. The sense of speed is unmatched to this day for me. Although, when I was a kid this game was very difficult toward the end and I was never able to beat it.
I picked the up steam version recently and I am still impressed by everything. I was able to finish all of it this time and I really enjoyed the levels I was never able to unlock as well as the complexity of the boost and regen mechanics. It still holds up to what I remembered as a kid and that made me really happy.

When I used to visit my family for weeks every summer there was not a whole lot to do. The saving grace was my Aunt who used to drop off a dreamcast with a bunch of games for me to play during that time. This was one of the games that she had.
I played this game a whole lot during that time and I specifically remember the first couple levels very fondly. I never did end up beating it however since I never had a memory card. I got pretty close one time but had to turn the console off. I ended up watching a streamer named brutalmoose play through it on one of his streams to the finish.

Got this for free because PSN got hacked as a "sorry" gift. I played this all the way through twice to do both the good and bad endings. Game was alright but got old by the second time around.
I also am still bitter about not getting the final achievement on the second play through. Pro tip: if you need to get an achievement that needs you to kill people to level up or beat so many of them, you should then NOT remove all the spawn points for the bad guys before you get the achievement. Learned that the hard way. Still putting 100% anyways. Fight me.

I saw a two page article about this game in Playstation Magazine back before the PS3 came out. I had never played a Final Fantasy game before and I was hype for sure. This game as well as Kingdom Hearts 3 were the reasons for getting a PS3 in the first place. At least this one came out on the PS3.
This game needed a lot of patience to sit through. It was kind of all over the place with the story and the tutorials were still showing up even after 6 hours into the game. Looking back the combat system was not that hard to understand but I would definitely be lying if I didn't fully figure it out until the second game.
After about 12 hours you finally get to a point where the game opens up and you are able to explore and do side quests and it was a good time if you were patient enough to get that far.
I had a lot of good memories with this and like others have said it really isn't as bad as people made it out to be.
Pro tip: once you get to the open world you should go straight to one of the side quests (mission 55) and get a 2x experience bangle or whatever by just casting death on the boss with Vanille until you get lucky and it dies. Otherwise, this game is very difficult and you are extremely under-leveled the in the open world.
