    Description

    Introducing unique worlds, memorable characters and extraordinary stories with every new instalment, the Final Fantasy series has continuously reinvented itself over the last two decades, shipping over 85 million copies worldwide in the process. The series is defined by constant evolution, with each release delivering nothing less than the finest creative vision, graphical quality and gameplay system of its generation. Needless to say, Final Fantasy XIII is no exception.

    In Final Fantasy XIII, players will embark on an awe-inspiring journey through the floating cityworld of Cocoon and the savage lowerworld of Pulse, encountering a diverse band of would-be allies along the way. With seamless transitions between real-time gameplay and in-game cinematics, and an evolved Active Time Battle system offering a perfect harmony of spectacular action and strategy, this is an adventure unlike any other. Do you have the courage to face your destiny?

     

    • A New Fantasy Begins: Embark on an adventure beyond your wildest dreams - packed with breathtaking environments to explore, unique allies to befriend, and awe-inspiring enemies to conquer.
    • An Audio-Visual Benchmark: Harnessing the power of The Crystal Tools graphics engine, Final Fantasy XIII pushes the boundaries of high-definition cinematic presentation, sound and gameplay.
    • A Unity of Speed and Strategy: The familiar Active Time Battle system has evolved, granting players the freedom to execute numerous commands in a single turn in real-time. Now players can enjoy all the strategy and flexibility of a turn-based system, along with the visceral thrill of an action game.
    • Turn the Tide of Battle with Paradigms: A brand-new game mechanic known as the Paradigm System enables players to assign roles to their party members at any time during battle. By switching between a variety of roles - including Commando and Medic - players can respond instantly to the needs of an ever-changing battlefield, adapting their strategy to ensure victory.
    • Unleash Devastation with Enhanced Summoning: Introducing Gestalt Mode: an exhilarating take on Final Fantasy's trademark summon system that elevates the action to a whole new level. In Gestalt Mode, the player uses simple button commands to unleash the combined might of the characters and their transformed Eidolons, inflicting massive damage to any who stand in their way.
    • Lose Yourself in the Drama: An immersive storyline draws the player ever closer to a cast of intriguing characters. Will they have the strength to face their fate, or are they doomed to destroy everything they love?

    Eye candy for a low price

    Not only for Final Fantasy fans is this game a real good one. I like the graphical style, the story, everything is great. There are no bugs, or issues with the PS3 version, as far as I know. The battlesystem is easy to learn and the way to skill things is not only easy to learn it is also a real eye candy. Something else then pushing + or - for skilling. 5 stars from me.

    Amazing

    Final Fantasy XIII is a very good game in graphics and gameplay, is the kind of game that is worth buying. Most impressive are the graphics of characters, for those who like RPG will not regret it, especially those who follow the series from the beginning.

    One of the best battle systems in Final Fantasy history.

    It's already been said that Final Fantasy XIII suffers from linear design, and a slightly far-fetched story, but it's hard not to recommend this game if only for the quality of the battle system. Never in a main Final Fantasy title have I ever felt so in control of a character while in battle.

    So when is Final Fantasy XIII-2 coming out again?

    Considering this was my first ever Final Fantasy game to have been played by me - I would have to say that I was certainly not dissappointed. With over 50 hours of quality game-play and a deep and touching story. A must have for RPG fans.

    Excellent for the actual price

    Now that it belongs to the Platinum line this game is a must have for J-RPG fans. The story is fantastic, and the visuals are astonishing. On the other hand, there's very little room for exploration and most of the game is extremely linear. In conclusion, not good enough to pay 60 bucks, but totally worth now under 20.

    disappointing for fans of FF

    FF13 is a beautiful looking game, with a new and fresh battle system and great storyline! Its problem is the gameplay! It feels like you are going through a pipe, the whole game long! All FF were a bit like that, but on this one it's def. too much! It's simply not really making fun! A few highpoints could make you go on playing the game! It's sooooooo sad! The game could've been way better!

    A good game but not a great one

    I was a very young gamer when I bought my first Final Fantasy and it was final fantasy 6 on snes. Many years have passed and during these years I haven't missed any FF episode. FFXIII is not a usual jrpg. In this new episode Square Enix took away most of those elements classic rpg gamers love like filling your heatlth with potions after a battle or buy potions from random NPCs in towns. FFXIII is now more than ever closer to an action game. The story as usual is intense and keeps the player into the game.You will always want to know what is happening next. This game isn't a masterpiece but it's a very nice experience for any gamer. I recommend it even at full price ! ! !

    A great story that will keep you in the edge of your seat from beggining to end

    Final Fantasy sure has changed over the years. Some claim its not the same game we all grew up loving anymore, but still, the 13º episode has a grand story, and a fantastic brand new battle system, combining fast paced battles with strategy, thanks to the new paradigm system. If you are fan of the genre this is one you cant miss, and even if you are not, but love a game with plenty to do and a great story, make sure to pick this one up.

    It's the best thing you could ever see but with minor flaws

    This game was excellent with minor flaws that I'm sure you could live with. Maybe they focused a little too much on the graphics but who could blame them? You have to top all Final fantasy graphics to make it all worthwhile. So there are minor flaws such as terms and maybe a lack of mini-games. I expected a little (that's a very small little) more out of this game considering that it took 4-5 years to make. Overall, it was all the best words you could think of, AWESOME, EXCELLENT, GREAT, MAGNIFICENT etc. So this game is all those words combined, it's a game that is just below the perfect mark.

    Masterpiece? Hmm...

    "Final Fantasy XII", for some a masterpiece and for others... Not so much. I am a bit sad to say that I belong to the "Not so much" side but don't get me wrong! I love the "Final Fantasy" series. Now here's why I give a 4 out of 5 to this game. The first "Final Fantasy" I played was IX and let me say, that game really afected the way I saw the world at the time, because the idea of living on that super amazing fantasy world filled with magic and wonder just blew my mind. When I got my hands on "Final Fantasy XII" it was kind of disappointing to play this game because it basically plays itself in an awkard way. Half the time I didn't even known what I was doing and just praying to get the battle over so I could catch on. But that's ok because the magnificent production values and the great original world, fleshed out by a compelling story, really kept me going. At the end you realise that is not quite what you were expecting, but still fun to play.

    Something for the not-so-diehards

    If you're looking for the authentic FF experience, then you will probably be slightly disappointed. Although lacking in a thrilling storyline, the story is narrative and takes you into the new world of Final Fantasy XIII, the same universe as upcoming Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Final Fantaasy Agito XIII. Despite the shortcomings of the story development, this FF offers a totally different experience onto the table. The battle system is revolutionary and it feels like everything is happening at real time. The battle system alone will make this game an unmissable for people who own a PS3 or 360.

    Yet another masterpiece by SquareEnix

    If you expect yet another Final Fantasy you are on the wrong road. This game is completely different from the old Final Fantasy, but still it's a great game. The combat system changed a lot, now the player can just use one character, while the other two are supportive and played by the CPU. The characters can change job by switching paradigms, in this way the game creates a new dimension in RPGs. The history is very well structured and has a lot of dramatic turn of events, which won't let the player bored. The only thing that I didn't liked about this game is that it's very linear until the very end, when it becomes just like any other Final Fantasy, with a lot of side quests and rare objects to gather. In the end, I must admit I really enjoyed this game, even though it's so linear the story is very nice. The Final Fantasy aficionado can be disappointed but in the end they will love this new masterpiece signed SquareEnix.

    Loved it !

    If im being honest I found this game a little diffiuclt to follow at first, but by sticking with It It didnt take me to long discover more about the characters, where they came from, and how they fit into the bigger picture. The story itself is fantastic and the battle system works briilliantly, much better than I was expecting. The graphics are slick and quite beautiful, the only down side I can see is that they are a little bit linear, and tend to repaet themselves in the scenery. I could spend hours typing about this game telling you all about it, but to be brutally honest Im going back playing it now as its excellent. Id recommend this game to everybody, so get out there and get it bought, you wont be dissapointed.
