Final Fantasy 13 a flop? (MUST USE SPOILER TAGS)
 

According to RFD it is. Extremely linear, no shops, no mini-games, no side-quests, no world map. The only thing going for it is kickass graphics/CGs

I sorta lost interest in the game. Hope Versus is better, somehow

noooooooooooo!!!

Sounds like the story sucks, therefore I am uninterested. It is painful to keep going through a game that is so long if the story is boring. I didn't even finish 12

the BIGGEST beef i have is the fact that they took out the "FF-ness" of the FF series. I mean c'mon, mini-games is the staple of FF. Think of all the mini-games FF7 has. And those games add to the story. World Map is also a big thing. I loved the fact that u can get a airship & go anywhere in the world. FF13 has none of that. And the entire game is merely one big ass dungeon really sucks.

i'm getting it
the fact that the game looks amazing and the game play seems challenging then the past series
a few past final fantasies have been some what linear and there was no problems with it
i say play it first before you start judging

famitsu still rated it high, consider the stuff that supposedly is left out. has to mean something.

famitsu gets paid off

famitsu stopped being a reliable review source for a very long time.

if it's only mediocre doesn't bother me...should still have god of war 2, bad company 2 dante's inferno, heavy rain, bioshock 2 to keep you busy.

i can see why for those that have waited for couple years would be pissed

im still getting it.

The FF series fell off after FF7 and FF8.

... no surprise there

i was just expecting/hoping for great cg and story

i was targetting Versus to be the real gem and i hope it proves to be

remake ff9!!!

you have to wait and see sales reports to call it a flop

Oh well, Versus it is.

They should remake ff7 or have a sequel to advent children. That would be awesome

yea, i waited for years for ff13 and I was expecting it to be the ultimate ff game since they have years for development. And now they dumb everything down just to please bill gates is really making my blood boil. I guess bottomline is that it's still business :(

^dude they develop the 360 version AFTER completing the PS3 version.

looks like im gonna be damned

even so, other game reviews say its above decent. even if famitsu is biased now, they still usually show the way most other reviews will feel towards the game.

anyways, just play the game and figure out for yourself how you like it. best person to review what you will like always comes down to you.

Play the game then come rant
Yes its linear and all but the battle system is so refined

im excited!! coming out tommroow at midnight! but im gonna pick mine up on tuesday after school, hopefully i can still study for midterms.

got like a 8.8 kinda slutty

so are they releasing both games at the same time?

does it matter which game you pick to play?

^side by side comparison resulted in PS3 version being better. and i think the audio is uncompressed too. (not a troll)

i checked both FS/BB and they both sold out already

I might just rent this one to see what the hype's about. I'll be playing it on Xbox if I do though, and I'm so used to playing on the PS since I've finished 7-12.

Also found out a little fun fact: the main character of FF13 is 5'10", making her taller than EVERY male main character from FF 7-12, Cloud by comparison is 5'7". Learned this when I was trying to find info on the game lol.
