blah blah blah. yet another thread complaining about FFXIII.

so fucking happy it's the best selling JRPG on both consoles and of the generation.

Have you never heard of a little game called Pokemon Diamond/Pearl?

On topic: FF has been going downhill since the 16bit days IMO, though the games remained among the best around until X.  Yes, I believe XIII gets a hard time and it is by no means a bad game, but it suffers from what I call 'Super Mario Sunshine syndrome'.  Meaning it is a good game in its own right, but is significantly worse when compared to some of it's predecessors; in FFXIII's case the likes of IV,VI and IX.  This generation as with last, Dragon Quest has IMO because S-E's best 'mega franchise'.

lets pretend like we don't know I'm talking about the home consoles.
