Hope you payed attention in Math
PostedFebruary 5, 2012
I say that because, if you really want to polish your character, your gonna have to do the math in their crystariums. The crystarium has gone under significant changes since FFXIII and is now far more interesting. What was once a set and caped path for each role is now a single, infinite path for all roles. Puzzling? I'm sure, but once you spend a little time on it you begin to understand how it really functions. There are now small and LARGE spheres and it is crucial when and on what sphere you level a role (If you want a characters with stats that make sense). I suggest getting the guide book, because there are many aspects of this game that may be confusing due to the "time paradox" theme. Personally, the story just got a whole lot worse and an abysmal soundtrack is thrown in. The improved gameplay makes up for this, the improved crystarium, the monster system, open areas and the "historia crux" (play the game to find that out). Sadly, as an RPG it has failed me. As something for a hardcore gamer though, it's pretty addicting. Serah's new outfit is horrible, what needed to change was the hair not the clothes, get it right next time SE. Happy gaming!

if you are like me and want to platium be sure to be very patient. there are some puzzles especially one in particular that takes hours to complete but if your just doing it for the story then this will be a fun game to play.

It's Great.

The game it self is amazing, the exploration, the scenery, and battle system. You take the role of Serah and Noel, which are trying find Lightning, Serah's sister, the story progresses by jump through time gate to a different time to try find Lightning. The previous title was considerable linear and Square Enix got reprimanded for it by their dedicated fans, but this time around it is open, exploration is key. But some areas lag due to the fact of an expansive area, but still has the glamours, to make you say "wow." The characters are great and the story is compelling, but one thing that tops it off is time travel, yes you can time travel, which makes everything better. The battle system has some new features, monsters fight at your aid which makes for fighting and capturing, like they say "Gotta catch then all.", but is a great edition. There is also anomlies, puzzles you have to solve in order to fix time and as you travel through time you must fix paradoxes,"distortions in time", but if you like time travel " who wouldn't", exploration, and cool haircuts, get Final Fantasy XIII-2, it is worth your time.

Perfection.......
PostedFebruary 4, 2012
All I can say is perfection. I love the game play, graphics rawk, and story is amazing. I am so glad they made a two part game. Oh before I forget, the four disk soundtrack...RAWKS! One of the best games, soundtracks, collectors editions ever to own. Totally worth every dime spent.
