....*sigh*

All right, now it sounds like at least a rental.

Wow thats was a amazing review, it almost seemed like the reviewer went crazy but liked it. I'll get this eventually

I really want this game. Good thing I'm getting myself a Wii next week :D I just need to beat FFXIII by then.

Sounds like it lack polishing.

Sounds like it lacks polishing like Helen Keller lacked Olympic gold medals.  

Who is Olympic gold medals and what is Helen Keller?

Not polishing but rather more thought in level and mechanics game design.

Having just finished this game not more than 45 minutes ago, I can say my only complaint it that it was kinda short. A little over 15 hours of game play on my save file. But other than that, I really see nothing overly wrong with it. Battle system is basic, but works. I didn't feel any need for lock on. Besides a little learning curve with the controls, I never got frustrated or confused with them. There is a TINY amount of back tracking. Nothing more than any other game though. The mood of the game was eerily amazing. Graphics and sound were top notch. Story was phenomenal. I'd easily give it an 8.5/10. Maybe even a 9 is it takes me out for dinner and talks nice to me.

Aww and it seemed so promising... Well I might buy this someday, when it's super cheap because it really looks unique.

Edit: After reading the comment above, it might not be so bad then... But I'm still going to wait till the price goes down... (Also will it be released in UK?)

For me its a must buy and the combat is not that bad , its just simple ...
