    they have made this game for noobs. i mean the game is just one path so u can never get lost….fight….cutscene….fight reapeat 20000x…pretty boring if u ask me. and people who say “yeah but it gets better after 25 hours” well im sorry but i aint waiting that long. FF7 still beats the shit out of this game. they spent more time of the cutscenes and story rather than gameplay! i mean its made for fucking noobs. i likes 7 where it would take u years to beat

    @benc911 now that is just a noobish coment. I mean cmon, FF7!! You’ve got to be kidding me. Its a great game and all, and it is better then FF13 but thats not a reason to trash it. It’s true the games linear, but try to do as many towns as the previous title in HD. Plus the fact that the desision to port to X360 tok time out out the devs calendar… Anyway, this is a great game, you just cant see it.

    @WolfUrameshi

    That ONE MAN was the only one linking the previous FF games from the originals.

    Amano is still there but mostly a figure head for us nostalgic FF gamers, imo amano should leave S-E and should have done that the moment Sakagushi left the building.

    So yeah, music, is a big deal in a FF game.

    Not saying XIII is bad, just it doesnt feel right, thats all.

    I blame the 360 for this game’s crapyness.

    @Nikolai2099 yup, i think your right. Microsoft arent always the best are they. -__-

    Oh so suddenly his absence automatically renders this game as pathetic and insignificant? It makes this game the worst entry ever and is automatically separate from the rest of the games? Seriously. I’m a nostalgic FF gamer and I applaud the change in author for music. Uematsu was getting seriously stale (I’m sorry, but after X, he isn’t the same) and this game’s music, though inappropriate at times is pretty good. Comments like yours make me nauseous, no offense.

    garbage game,,

    Fair review I guess. The music is not too bad. I’m more worried about how linear the game is, and how little space for exploration there is. I agree with the lack of stores as something detrimental to the game. Other than the interaction between the main characters and a few others, there is very little interaction.

    Not a bad game, but not the best in the FF franchise. I enjoyed it, but it can definitely be much better. I would have probably given it a 7.5 or so. Lacks depth.

    @lilrizq square/enix didnt make lost odessy hence why it is better than anything after FF10 when the creator of the brand distance himself from this money grubing shit they been putting out since X2

  13. newf360 said on

    In my opinion this is the worst JRPG I’ve played in a long time. I don’t believe it should even be considered a JRPG, as it leaves out most all elements which make a JRPG. As a game it also fails. The battle system(which is the main part of the game) takes way way way to long to open up.Square Enix has taken one of my favorite franchises and completly ruined it(WTF were they thinking when they desighned this game).

    i only have 12 and 13 but i really enjoyed the open scenery from 12. Plus if you get the game guide you get a whole lot more out of the game (i only used it for side quests) Good vid

    Fair review, Only 1 problem with it….. When this guy talked about the camera controls I understood what he was talking about, but I guess he didn’t know about the R3 (PS3) button. The camera didn’t move as fast as I wanted it to (like the review said) but then I just started using the R3 button, no problem.

    oh boy…I like the review. You conplian about the music, well since the composer has changed, that’s sometimes needed brings fresh air into a series; adds little tweaks here and there. RPGS were originally Linear I like it. Shops suit the game due to there ‘on the run’ and granted everything is maintained by the fal’ce. Everything is great.

  17. skyline25160 said on

    @Nikolai2099 true even when the game is 3 discs on the 360 it still wasnt as good as i expected, little too linear. Luckily i got it for ps3.

  18. mackol24 said on

    @trignite I agree with you… it’s totally amazing.

  19. Maiku2010 said on

    wow i can so tell this guy is reading right off a script

  20. Maiku2010 said on

    @Sigmanclune lmfao you spammers are so rediculous. at least get the holiday right

  21. Maiku2010 said on

    this games battle system looks like star ocean + kingdom hearts

  22. QuethLevi said on

    for me: 4-5/10

  23. uglylikesin said on

    I think the reviewer played it on the 360, because the detail and resolution on the ps3 is greater then the 360’s, also the 360’s version cant hold a steady frame rate (i,e laggy). I think this game deserves a 9.

  24. 4Zook44 said on

    10. Out of over 9000.

    @Maiku2010 without the fun.
