Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Final Fantasy XII
I purchased this as a gift for my boyfriend, and he says it's hours of entertainment and fun. I enjoyed watching him play, and video games usually bore me to death! I even decided to play it myself and enjoyed it very much.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Execellent game!!!
First let me tell you that im not a stupid kid who just played his first RPG, no im a season player who goes back to the days of zelda:a link to the past(my first RPG by the way),I have playad them all,xenosaga,star ocean,breath of fire,kingdom hearts,final fantasy...you name it.

Im not fond of online RPGs and for some reason this game feels like one, dont get me wrong this is a good game but just not that good
THE Graphis are great, the caracters are well desing each with distintive personas, the backgounds are amazing and each place feels completely different, the dungeons are a little tediuos and very easy to get stranded wile playing
THE Music is probably the biggest letdown in this game,the are times in the game where music doesnt feel in pace with the game,there are scenes that i think are watered down by the poor performance of the music, I really regret Nobuo Uematsu departure SE
The Gameplay feels fresh, the battle system has been completely revamped to a more MMORPG kind of game, love or hate it the old turn based final fantasy we used to like is gone ,replace by a fast paced battle system that leaves little room for error, given that everything happens in real time it becomes impossible to control the up to 4 party members you may had assing,heres where the gambit system kicks in a system that lets you preselect the actions you want your party members to perform so they can automatically attack,heal, or whatever you want them to do in the middle of a battle. This gambit thing is pretty fun but it doesnt feel like youre in control, because youll be only playing with 1 character at a time wile the others are control by the AI

Overall is a awesome game, great story, probably the most complex story ever told in a FF game, but to my taste this game is just not up to par when compare with games like FFX,Xenosaga 3 or Shadow Hearts Covenant...



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - This was awful.
I hated this game. I grew up watching my older brother playing final fantasy games and I loved watching it. I finally got a ps2 and started playing them for myself and loved them. This one I got for christmas last year and .... well... it's a year later and I still can't stand to play it. I hate the fighting style. I didn't CARE about any of the characters and didn't really get intrigued by the story line. I gave it 5 hours before switching to Mortal Kombat just so that I could have a character I could REALLY control. This game sent me looking for my old sega! My roomate tried made it about 16 hours into the game before giving up. I couldn't even watch him play it I was so bored.

The graphics were great. That's the only good thing this game has to offer.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - completely different from all other final fantasy games
This isn't your average final fantasy game. Completely different, there is no random battles, you really don't need to use magic at all other then to heal, and with its own "class" system where anyone can be and do anything, meaning nobody has there own strengths. This game has had some very mixed reviews, some think its actually pretty good, while others think its utterly horrid...

Well, I'm leaning more towards the horrid. I absolutely hate games with out defined characters, job systems just are a bad idea. Magic is pretty useless, other then for healing. And to make money, you have to sell junk you attain from battles, like stones and pelts. The battle system isn't that great either, to start a battle you need to get close to the enemy. Battles are very sparse, so it takes forever to level, but if your just running somewhere there are enough monsters to annoy you. While the graphics are absolutely beautiful, graphics just don't make a good game. I stopped playing it after level 25.

When I first read the description, I had though that this game would be the dynasty warriors version of final fantasy, but it isn't even close! Do not buy this expecting a lot of button mashing action. Buy it if you enjoy good graphics with bad British actors, and if you never liked casting spells during your final fantasy adventures.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not great
This is a good game not a great game. The side quest are really a waste of time! You go running all over Ivalice to complete some quests only to have them give you 2 remedies! I got one side quest that had me talking t oa chicken I got a bow but the weapon was only what?...36 attack points. the weapon I had at the time was 75..all that running around for what. Then you have to fight for the Espers..(thats what they call them now)for what never use them! For them to build their hit points you have to power up yourself by that time you complete the game. To obtain them first you have to fight them okay that makes sense but dont you think I would like to at least control them once I beat them!! Arent they suppose to be under the casters control? I would only recommend this game if your collecting the Final Fantasy series and your a die hard fan. Final Fantasy 10 is way better in my opinion.
