Cheat Code Central - 4.5/5.0 (90%)
http://cheatcc.com/ps3/rev/finalfantasyxiiireview.html

Rating out of 5
Rating Description

4.9

 Graphics
Cinema scenes are gorgeously rendered, and in-engine graphics are nearly on par with the cutscenes. Visuals are definitely a sight to behold.

4.8

 Control
The menu-based control is a breeze and active elements do not detract from the game's classic feel.

4.7

 Music / Sound FX / Voice Acting
The soundtrack is beautiful, and the majority of the voice work is well done.

3.7

 Play Value
The game is a little too linear at times, and the lack of meaningful side quests limits replay potential. Beginning Cocoon levels may turn off some players.

4.5

 Overall Rating - Great
Not an average. See Rating legend above for a final score breakdown.

One thing that's bugging me...why are the characters wearing the exact same clothes in all the flashbacks? You'd think they'd change their clothes sometimes lol

This is not Final Fantasy VIII.

Oh yeah sorry I haven;t done a VGCritic update since 2 pages

I'll do one as soon as I end my day of playing today...probably around 1AM UK time!

I am really happy that the response to this game is very positive on here!


GO FFXIII!

LOL

So I look in my friends list on my PS3 and I see darth saying "FF13 = BEST RPG EVER" and then I look just below him and it's lightning_24 saying "FF XIII is boring"!
