Final Fantasy 13

O HAI THAR.
Yeah, the front cover basically tells you the ending. Like all the other FF logos do. (:
Why am I reviewing this game I hear the man in the back shout!
Well!
Let me tell you good sir.
Because my last review/talk to myself about a game was too nice!
And I feel like a good fucking rant.

Characters 4/10 :-

"4/10! Oh Hannah, you bitch, however could you be so main to the wonderful characters in this game!?"
SHUT IT PEASANT. The characters are annoying.
(Man I love these arguments with myself.)
Anyway, there were characters I liked. Snow was okay, if not a tiny bit obnoxious at times. Him talking about the group called Nora to that kid, who's dead mum is named Nora...Isn't that just a moment where everyone else in the room cringes and stares at the ground and each other while gasping.

The characters of FF13 -
Snow. Looking determined.

Lightning. Looking angry. Typical.

Fang. Looking Australian. Is she Australian? (No one say a thing about Fosters being brewed in the EU.)

Vanille. Looking annoying.

Sazh. Too far? Aha, no one reads this crap anyway, plus it's merely a comment on the stereotyping of the FF games. Take Barret fir example. (:

Hope. No. I don't get it either.

And this people is why no one really likes me on DeviantArt! (:

Story - 8/10
Fair play, the story of the game is pretty interesting. I haven't played it in a while, but it's a good story, basically your characters are attempting to go against the power to bring someone back out of crystal status - while doing this though, they have a another objective, because they have been turned into l'cie, or whatever they're called, they must complete their mission to stop them from turning into Ceith...Or whatever they're called, aha. Ceith are basically souless monsters, who used to be l'cie. What a sad fate.

Graphics - 10/10
Wow. I was blinded by the beauty of these graphics, the menu screen made me giggle like a school girl, which is geeky, and lame, but well, the graphics of this game are great, along with the cutscenes and the music.

Battle System - 7/10
The battle system is much better than 12, but lacking in comparison to the older games. Personally, I'm an old school girl, the old original, simple RPG style of battle has always been my favourite. Simple, and yet, fun, and you could make up your own tactics etc. On this one your tactics are a major function in most boss battles, you can select the two characters you don't control to be healers/defenders/attackers etc. It is quite cool on one hand, and kind of good fun. But on the other hand. There's a major flaw. Your main guy dies. You die. Fuck~!
This happened to me on the final boss, and I was not a happy bunny, as he has a ridiculous amount of health.

Overall - 7/10

This was meant to be a rant! Bugger!
I'll be fair, Final Fantasy 13 is good for beginners to the series, and to those who have played through the whole series. No major flaws, although the characters are debatable. The ending is predictable which is sad, as I feel endings have gotten rubbish over the years (minus Eternal Sonata.) I hope 14 is better than 13. But I somehow doubt it will be. I guess I should just stick to my dusty old playstation 1.
