Choose your words carefully Persian :P

hey, don't shoot the messenger!

Well as long as it's not as blasphemous as the self proclaimed "bearded gamer" FFXIII review.

I'm seriously still not over that score ... a 9.

I Actually think that's the only reason they let me review this one, they knew I wouldn't be giving it no 9 unless it EARNED it dammit.

Normally I have come to like VGChartz reviews because they offer a decent perspective, but there was a recent 9.7 score for a certain console that caused a considerable dent in my faith of this websites reviewing process.

When I was a reviewer, I think I only gave one game a 9 something, Super Street fighter 4.

I lost my faith a long time ago :P

honestly? That's one rare occasion where I totally agree with the guy. I know the game has its issues, but there's just SO much content, and such a great plot, and so much to do, and so much variety, all played through a greatly functional game that the occasional glitches almost seem insignificant.

I have played the game for almost 200 hours now, and I've only ever had my game glitch on me twice. I had Uncharted 3 glitch more than that.

I'm just saying that the persistence of the issues in that game is hilariously exagerrated. While I admit they'd be better off not being glitches at all, they're not really detrimental to the experience.

So is this a terrible game or what?

I'll be writing a review after I finish the Platinum, but based on the main game @ 35 hours. I would award it a 9/10.

They got creative, good music besides Nobuos shitty Chocobo music, decent time travel storyline, and one of the best villains i've seen ever.

35 hours? 23 for me, and I complained about it dragging balls, another few hours later to do some postgame content and I was just sorely disappointed. The Vaillain was barely better than the Devil Pope from the previous game, competing for "least interesting villain ever"

I would say our tastes are quite a bit opposite on the spectrum. Did you even do any of the fragment quests which offer sub story? Visit any of the optional areas? It seems to me like you did a speed playthrough. I didn't even do everything I could and I hit 35 hrs easy. Also Caius was bad assss.

*not to break this topic*

My guess of his score is 7.5. But could be lower >_<. Hell'd freeze over if he gave it over an 8.

Yes, I actually did. It took a few tries for them to find my preorder....

I'm loving the game so far. The demo never does a game justice.

Everyone needs to play Lost Odyssey! Any opposition to this and I will have to just say, "If it's a fight you want, you got it!"
