To put things in perspective, the original XIII got an 8.9/10. And both games were reviewed by the same person-- who is a big fan of the FF series.

 

+Bigger Worlds

+Improved Battles

-No Closure

-Too Automated

 

Thoughts?

 

I don't understand how Ryan Clements can constantly say that the game is an improvement, yet give it a lower score than XIII.

That was about what I was expecting. The ending(s) turned me off from getting the game, especially since I'm kind of a fence-sitter on the original.

 

EDIT: my apologies, I wasn't reading particularly closely.

I think it is a good score and kinda agree with him.

I wish they kept the orginal FF gameplay or make it KH styled

lol. i never saw a game review by IGN that got a 9.5 or 10

Look at 90% of the games that came out last November.

A different guy might have reviewed XIII. That was about what I was expecting. The ending(s) turned me off from getting the game, especially since I'm kind of a fence-sitter on the original.

 

Are you blind?

My second sentence clearly states that both games were reviewed by Ryan Clements.

Opinions change. His opinion of FF XIII probably significantly declined after he did his review for it (which happens a lot).

 

This is why I find reviews sometimes sketchy (yes, coming from an unprofessional reviewer). It's hard to put together your thoughts on a movie or game review only a few hours after you've beaten it, and the guys who get early review copies are given only a specific amount of time to play through and write a review for a game.

I don't care what the reviews say. I never use them for anything other than to find out if a game's completely broken.

I saw a review for it on playstation lifestyle (I think that's what the website was called) and they gave it a 5/10. Ouch.

In this topic: People slowly start to realize that reviews are glorified opinions

I like the 8. It's storyline is too whacked out to be the 40/40 Famitsu gave it, but it's gameplay seems good enought to salvage its score.

I think you took a wrong turn, this is a Kingdom Hearts forum.
