Final Fantasy XIII

Having spent approximately 8 hours on the game so far…it has me hooked.  The visuals are more stunning than Scarlettt Johansson…sorry Scarlett, I still love you though!

As for the gameplay, having played all of the previous Final Fantasy games bar Final Fantasy XI, it does take a little bit of getting used to but the tutorials cover the new features well without seeming monotonous and can be skipped (which I’m thankful for as I tend to replay them 3 or 4 times and that’s usually a deterrent if you can’t skip the cutscenes and tutorials etc.) and makes the game approachable for hardened FF fans as well as newcomers.

I’m looking forward to getting another Platinum Trophy on this but unlike the other games I’ve been scouring for trophies, I’m taking my time with this as I don’t want to spoil the story and disrespect this crystal (wink) of a game!

Anyways, best get back to it!
