GamesMaster has settled on an 81% review score for Final Fantasy XIII, calling the game 'a classic example of style over substance'. Ouch.

But it's not all bad. GM praises the title's 'stunning vistas' - calling it the 'sumptuous eyeball feast you'd expect from Square Enix'.

'[It's] wondrous, yes, but a tad soulless,' GM reports. 'The vast majority of locales seem sadly impersonal and cdn.static.'

It concludes: 'There's not enough raw game packed into the 35-40 hours it takes to complete the narrative.

'And that leaves us with a distressing situation - a Final Fantasy game scoring less than 90%. Dear friends, we're as shocked as you.'

What do you reckon, readers - are you still interested?
