Collectors Edition not worth it, Game is
PostedFebruary 1, 2012
While this game is great, stay away from the collectors edition. The "Book of concept art" is like 10 pages(I was expecting 20 front and back at least, but its 10 or so front and back) stuck in the middle of the unfoldable book like case that holds the game and sound track. While the artwork on the case is nice, the pages inside make it awkward to open and close. Seems easy to damage for those who arent careful. Havent tried the sound track yet, but Im currently wondering why the game fits on 1 disc, but the sound track must be split among 4 discs. Other than that, its great. Different than FFXIII, but the same. No more of those amazing pre rendered cg cutscenes, its all real time rendering(which is why it fits onto 1 disc for those pesky xbox readers, duno why they would be reading a review on a PS page). The new cutscene actions makes it so you cant just sit down and watch cutscenes, but actually participate in them. While the impact of whether you succeed or fail doesnt really matter, I like seeing the actions for when you succeed. So far, its not bad, just different, and I dont have to worry about hope and vanille refusing to heal me.

Sound Track
onFebruary 3, 2012
Going to get the game right now, but wanted to say that the game fits on one disk because the sound track is compressed and when in True Digital , the sound is not compressed and takes up alot of space. True Digital is so much better than compressed. Hpoe that helped. David

Really Amazing
PostedFebruary 1, 2012
Everything about the game is absolutely perfect, except for one thing.
I don't know why, but the graphics in this one look worst than in the first one. Final Fantasy XIII had perfect graphics, in my mind, but in XIII-2, some parts look like they are out of a PSP game. I do not really care much, but I think they should've came out a lot better. The battle system is really cool and I love that. The music is kind of funky, but I don't mind. The CGI videos look really good though. I say that they make up for the game play graphics. In my eyes, I still see this as an amazing game to get. I would recommend it to anyone.
Although not a lot of people like Final Fantasy XIII, I still say it is the best.

The Final Fantasy 7/8/12 Mash Up
PostedJanuary 31, 2012
Ok -.- So For the Final Fantasy Review! Release Date: January 31rst.
We all know I'll Die before I don't get a final Fantasy game that comes out. Especially If a colelctors edition is Aviliable. I preordered Final Fantasy 13-2 The Collectors Edition Expecting it to suck... After 13 and the Rumors I've heard I had little hope. To My surprise I rather enjoy it. Much more then the Original Final Fantasy 13. They have brought back mini games and the Chocobo riding ♥ and the best part... You dont have to play 30 hours into the game to unlock it all ♥ Its all relativly available from the start. If you like Final Fantasy 12 You will like 13-2 I promise. I love Final Fantasy 12 It was one of my favorites. The only Serious Problem I have is the story line. If you've played Final Fantasy 8 It's basicly a huge rip off from that. Non-the-less I can forgive that. We need an updated Final Fantasy 8 That was my favorite. For Those of you who have played 7, When you see the opening scene with Kaisis (I believe thats how it's spelled) DO NOT THROW YOUR REMOTE! Yes It will make you mad just a little... But all games have their flaws. The game is good. I enjoy it. So Get it ^-^ Even if you don't have the 80$ wait 3 months and it'll be like 30$ ha. You'll Enjoy it.
