FFXIII Disappointment

When I first bought this game I was SO excited to finally have it in my grasp. I felt like "it" was finally here, "The Greatest Game To Ever Be Created!" That was the thought I had put in my head...boy, how wrong was I!

Not only was this game a disappointment for the Final Fantasy franchise but it was an even bigger disappointment to every Final Fantasy fan out there. With all the delays and push backs that it went through, I thought for sure this game was going to be incredible. The story never had the feel of a genuine Final Fantasy game and after just a few short hours I could see and feel that something was terribly wrong... it was like they took the Final Fantasy OUT of the Final Fantasy game. I didn't FEEL like I was playing a Final Fantasy.

I kept telling myself, "It's going to get better....it has to." After I beat the game, there were no more excuses. This was just a BAD GAME.

The only things that stood out were the amazing graphics and the innovative fighting could do without the latter of the two though) It didn't feel right and I hope that if they continue with this epic franchise, they put XIII up on the chalk board and do everything...EXACTLY OPPOSITE!

I completely agree with your review. I think Gamepro was on crack when they gave more than 3 stars to this piece of crap of a game for sissies.

I played FFVII for the first time ever this year and I had more fun doing the Gold Chocobo side-quest then what I had with the entire FFXIII games.
