Final Fantasy 13 OH HERE IT COMES ;D

[Chicky]

Easy now! I think that came across wrong   I've been looking over the Gamefaqs forums and there are a tonne of fanboys whining there, i wasn't specifically referring to anyone on these forums; just fanboys in general.

Haha. Seriously, if you enjoy a game it really doesn't matter what anyone else (Including reviewers) has to say about it. There are dozens of games that I have greatly enjoyed that received bad reviews and negative comments. It's all a matter of personal taste. I think every game, no matter if I like or dislike it, has at least one thing enjoyable about them. If I could afford it I would own every gaming system out there because they each have a game I would like to play. I bought the original XBOX just to play Shenmue. If I could afford it, after I get my 360 fixed, I would buy the PS3 just to play Heavy Rain. I'm still waiting for a universal gaming system that lets you play games from every system on one machine. Ah, wishful thinking. I probably couldn't afford such a system anyway.

No worries Chicky, I wasn't being serious 

One more criticism, though, and I'm done with the negativity: the story's being really draggy!

On the positive side, I'm getting quite a glow of satisfaction every time I beat a difficult boss in one go One thing I really like about FF battle systems is how it seems quite daunting at first, and then after a while you're throwing around jargon and flipping between combinations like you're born to do it. It feeds into the gamers' egos really well.

Right. I remember reading about this some time ago. Can't believe I forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me.

Here in Sweden there is no such thing as renting a game. (At least not in gothenburg) If you want a game, buy it or force a friend to buy it

Seeing that I'm the only one in the small group of friends close to my home with a console newer than a ps2 I have to listen to reviewers and opinions before buying a game.

Now, I did heavily enjoy ff12 and the ff's for ps1 (not 8 though... oh god what a bad game :o). Do you guys think I could find myself enjoying this based on this? Or is this an entirely different experience?

Well Its good, but its not good enough.
I'm not impressed with the monsters and how they are based on each other, (at least 7,8,9,10,10-2 didnt copy the same basic structure of an enemy and just recolour it. The cheeky gets )
The weapons upgrade system is poo
The story is so complex at the beginning, I was wondering if it would be one of those games that i would never understand.
I hate how the most annoying Character has to be the best at Magic

I kinda regret bringing this subject up now
FF14 is to be an MMORPG so I am probably gonna be getting off the FF train after i have 100% this one (which will probably be in about 200hrs of gameplay

Wasn't FF11 an MMORPG, too?

The Best were 7 and 9, IMO
