Well I decided to actually play the game since I don't want the ps3 just sitting here doing nothing. Only played about half an hour or so though (since I was playing a lot of DQIX just prior, just cleared the 120 hours played mark!).
First impressions: The cut scenes look pretty. The in-game stuff isn't as nice, but still looks good. HP filled up after each battle? That makes the game a lot easier as I can save all my potions for "during battles", haha.
Some of the characters are alright like Lightning, but I don't like the character designs on some of the others. Also does Snow always wear that damn bini? The black guy seems like he was put in there for comic relief/playing the fool, as he acts pretty dumb from what I've seen so far. Hopefully his character develops better as you get more into the game.
