Final Fantasy 13 is set for release in the UK a week today. This is an exciting time for all RPG fans. Does anyone have any hot gossip on how good this game will be. eg story, gameplay, battlesystem........etc
I am planning to burn onto DVD for the 360 and complete it on there. Then, if I feel the game has enough re-playability, then I will buy it for the PS3 and play it through some more times, while aiming for max level and defeating all the side-bosses.
I am really looking forward to the game, as despite the series getting worse (in my opinion), I think the storyline for this one and the graphics will make it worthwhile.
Yeah i think final fantasy peaked at 7 then has got worse from there. Although i really enjoyed 10.The reviews for 13 from japan has been up and down but mostly up.
The early stages of the game (I've only just started) seem to be based around three separate stories with various characters who will presumably meet up at some point. The 'Save Point' in this game also acts as your local convenience store, which makes me think that there are no actual shops in this game, which is a shame.
In regards to the battle system, it seems you control only one character in your team and the other two support you during the fight based on the settings you have provided them. Again, not sure how I feel about this yet, but as the battles become more intense and the menu options more clustered, then perhaps I will grow to appreciate it.

After 8 hours, I'm onto Disc 2.
My friend is using the 360 for a few days now though so it'll probably be a while before I complete it.
I must say, the game is extremely linear throughout the entire first disc. The story seems alright I guess, and I like some of the characters. Overall though; the game hasn't really captivated me like the others in the series did.
Here's to hoping it opens up more and gets more interesting as you go further in.
