  • I hate Fable but that was a cool advert, great song choice.

  • as long as it doesnt have 16 hour fights

  • Wired 6/10? they must be retarded.

    aarage 8.4 not bad

    but its more like a 9.0

  • Pie.

  • this could have been an amazing game if they gave us a bit more freedom,example actual citys!!! and people to talk to!!!!!! other then that it was an amazing game, ohh yeah and not enough after content

  • Woah, this song should be put in a music video of Fanal Fantasy XIII

  • for a final fantasy getting nothing below a 9.5 is a failure. way to drop the ball squarenix. i miss the quality of the squaresoft days

  • Wired, lets see you make a RPG.

  • im a huge ff fan ever since ff game came to the NES.... but i haveta agree wit wired... 6/10 for me as well....

  • 8.5 is my max most def

  • im tempted to buy this game, but the whole no main character thing really puts me off , specially in this kind of game where its all about the story, is practically a really long movie you take part in, but i want more than that, i want a main character that i can get attached to, feel a connection to, basically i wanna feel like im part of the story, not just someone moving the pieces around so the story can continue.

  • 6.5 for me its not a JRPG It has no exploring just walking forward and pressing X I did beat the game though Rpg fans... buy yakuza

  • i have followed ff from the begining, and i love this game people can say that 13 is terrible because before all this it was a ps2 era....and i think with people dissing the game this much enix should be pissed. i mean think about it....5 years.. all that casting, and people are saying its a fail....the graphics are amazing and the story is good too, the combat as well, plus the summons are new and revolutionized for our newer times..ff fans should just be happy the new ff is here

  • @chobitsgnarlslover Graphics sucks

    after watching Transformers

    most summons looks like they came from cybertron

    btw i say graphics sucks cuz ive seen such ugly low res areas and jaggy knees for an rpg game that had way more time to develope this was crappy and easy to play through and no Towns?? WTH man

  • @WookhieManJoe i dont know how you can say that man, they did all they could with 5 years, or however, any more loaded with graphics and story lines they would have had to have 4-5 discs, plus there are towns, have you even played the game? most people should in my opinion, it has realistics, and sure the sum mons look weird but they were trying something new and it really paid off cuz it fits the technologic age of the game.

  • @chobitsgnarlslover dude

    ??? really?

    you dont kno do ya?

    in an interview they SAID whole fucking areas that could make another game altogether was cut out to port to the 360 the said areas was already running in ps3 hardware omfg i woudnt mind so many disc as long as it was good not short shitty ones with 2-3 disc

  • @WookhieManJoe dude, i know everything about this game, only a fuckin dumbass douche wouldnt know the story, the ideals, the work that all of those things took, think you can make up a story as good as this, and make equally good graphics, be my fuckin guest. you people gotta understand enix tried something new, and they did a good job. yet you complain because it isnt original. and you call yourself ff fans.

  • @chobitsgnarlslover when the Fuck!? did i say i was an hardcore FF fan

    ye sure i played FF games before but FF never really impressed me until 9 and 10 then X2 came out which made 10's dark charm into a charlies angel theme , thank you eniX!

    now we get FF13 i dont like that wat i said so wat!? its my opinion man you dont have to reply if you dont want to

  • @WookhieManJoe there are people that love this game man, sometimes opinion oughta be kept to yourself cuz there are die hard ff fans out there whod string people up for saying this game sucks. id know cuz im at a school surrounded by beta testers and theyve all played and adore the game. they are some mean mother fuckers. there are always games out there man.

  • @chobitsgnarlslover your school classmates has beta testers !?

    ha!? dude die hard fans would see the pros and cons of the game and call it as it is

    Fanboys is wat your saying to me not Die Hard fans

    like me im a die hard MGS fan but i can tell you MGS4 was a waste of my money

    fuckin game had 3-4 hours of gameplay and 5-8 hours of Cutscenes

  • @WookhieManJoe

    MGS4 was brilliant!!!

    MGS1 was like one of the first games i ever played...still one of my favourites EVER...

  • @brendude95 it was brilliant but MGS Peacec Walker Shits on it big time in the fun factor and replay value category , so did MGS3 Subsistence

    its great , mgs4 is good and a must for mgs fans but not the best game you could recommend to a new comer

  • @WookhieManJoe

    Peace Walker was pretty damn fine, pre ordered that game and i love it. I can't beleive such a customizable and long game could be put onto the PSP like that. Still it had it floors, it nailed being a handheld game, but the whole missions thing and the lack of a long and powerful story prevented it from being as good as a console game.

  • @brendude95 you can read your own comment dude

    You Loved it , Customizable and long game, Fun game!!!!! and handheld,

    sure MGS was good in story and gameplay

    but MGS4 had story and MGSPW had Gameplay, AND COOP

  • @WookhieManJoe

    Im so angry that the Peace Walker Co-op didn't have infrastructure!!! I couldn't play with ANYBODY =(

    Anyway i meant "it had its flaws"...terrible spelling there xD

  • @brendude95 i got to school and by break time, or free time i scan with MGSPW Room Scanner watheverer and i could scan like 20-100 games, that lowest i got was 17 games , and thats becuz it was Finals

  • @WookhieManJoe

    People are my school aren't cool xD. They don't play MGSPW.

  • Does Any1 else think that Square Enix is not like it used to be?

  • @Mrpnut08 square enix was trying something different with this, and i think they did alright, i mean the graphics are amazing and if you pay attention the story is good. the summons was a new thing and they branched off into a new zone on those, people like cars...and most of the time you were in a city and it works... plus the combat system was new and unigue...how can you hate?

  • Comment removed

  • @Mrpnut08 It's because they are not, lol. Ever since the merger of Enix and SquareSoft I think around 2001 or 2002 (FFX was the last sole SquareSoft), the Final Fantasy series has taken a different path, not necessarily bad, but different.

  • Cool Opinion, but if you said that to a fanboy.

    You'd be in that trash can on the city limits of Manhattan

  • @sonic06isawesome im a fan boy and even im dissapointed with this game....most fan boys cant defend this game , theres to much flaws ,the graphics are good but the rest of te games a joke.

  • @MrLiam55555

    Well, my dear liam, I am sorry to say that I am not a fanboy and I like this game.

  • is just a good anime, thats it

  • Final Fantasy for me is, story, leveling, managing equipment and characters, turn based fighting system, world map, some sort of mini-game for distraction, epic boss battles and not to forget, memorable music. Each characters needs to tell their story and somehow be a part of the greater whole of the main plot.

    I know they keep on trying to reinvent the wheel here, but since VII, I lost a lot of hope in the FF franchise.

    Did they include summons or turn-based? Is there a world map?

  • @TheSolitudinarian I ment XII, not VII.. Silly me.

    While I'm at it. I like VII, IX and X. I haven't played the oldschool ones, so I couldn't add those to my list. I hope they go back to their roots someday.

  • no world map, not turn based but theres summons plus some pretty good music plus i really dig the new fighting system

  • The graphics, gameplay, story, characters- this game has it all. This is the type of game that you'll play just to see what will happen next, which becomes and addictive factor (it was for me anyway).

    The only downfall is the linear quality. Until the 3rd disc when you're able to actually explore, you're following a straight path, with a couple dead ends, in different terrains you can't return to. Additionally, your battle roster is picked for you until the 3rd disc.

    Overall, I give it an 8/10

  • Wired can kiss my ass. "A failed experiment."? Really? This game is epic!

  • Everyone gave it good and i think ill get it. I thought it was funny how one website said it was a failed experiment. He is definitely the outliar.

  • Xbox 360 fanboys are the ones 1 starring this video because it's a type of game that only mature PS3 users and some Xbox 360 users understand.

  • 360 users can be mature, we just love our overrated shooters too much :P

  • @Pandalovesdough so true, i mean cmon halo is the xbox360 game....you gotta love that if your a shooter person

  • @Pandalovesdough

    Well put my friend, i couldn't agree more...still...buy a PS3 please =D

  • Very true lol.

  • fantastic Game! Its going to become a classic. i test the games be 4 theyre release date by being a free member of "BetaTestGamers" - check their site out all u do is write a short 10 minute review of the game u got from them

  • personaly i give it a 10 ;)

    i think the only downfall is that you crnt change the camera sensitivity which can get annoying (N)

  • the only thing thats good about this game is the graphics thats all im saying.

  • You have nothing else to say because you probably haven't even played it.

  • @Lochsabre i have played the first disk and half way through the second.....and there has been nothing exciting about this game so far.

  • Ya know, I haven't seen a single commercial for this game...

  • @SmokyOwl

    lol, they dont need it

  • OMG I WANT THIS FOR THE 360 NOW.

  • ffXIII 10 score ftw

  • what's the song?

  • Wow. i used to like wired. they couldn't be more wrong here.

  • sick game. its so addictive i manage 2 test games months b4 anybody else by signing up to "Beta TestGamers" - google them, its free to signup all they ask u 2 do is right a short review of the game

  • i've always luved the FF series but more often then not i find my self ignoring it when i come across a tough boss. the system of taking turn attacking doesnt appeal to me as i am more used to real time fights in games such as CoD. i adore the new real time fight sequences in FFXIII and i cant wait to complete the game, its looks to hav sum gr8 fights ahead, and an even greater story 10.5/10 :D

  • FFXIII sure is a good game !

    its not the best FF

    but graphic talking , it's the most amazing I've seen

    gameplay is a bit easy to master ( well at least for me )

    if it was the failed FF, then why am I playing it right now?

    plus there is the versus FFXIII that is still TBA where they may changes a few things

  • the english theme song seem to fit into this trailer

    other than that, it does'nt mix well for the game

  • wow, ive never heard of wired... the game is absolutely phenomenal, and he says the game is a failed experiment, without giving an explanation at all. that guy is fucking retarded.

  • when does lightning get her gun.... im not that fair in the game yet?

  • don't give a shit about the reviews i love this game second favorite in the seires only next to 10 i agree it kinda of starts off a little slow but im on chapter 9 and damn is all i can say so much good shit happens. if your on the fence about getting pick it up this is someone who has been playing ff for over 13 years now

  • Despite its reviews, Im loving the game. So what your stuck to focusing on the story, the battles seem to keep me on my toes especially when you make it to Pulse and realize everything before that was childsplay compared to the enemies there. Overall the game isn't perfect, but its still pretty damn good.

  • You must be STUPID not to buy this if your going off what people have said on reviews. Reviews more or less control the buget through public manipulation whether to or not buy the game is your choice. What im saying is you really cant judge this game untill you get past the first 20 hours, yes its a bit of a grind, but isnt that wat us die hard FF fans have been after? every FF game to date (apart this) is more or less the same time lenght in gameplay hours. this changes it all by a long shot.

  • I really dont understand how people are complaining about the god damn game, story is epic, characters fit well with it also, battle system is evolutionary, nice little upgrade system for your weapons and accesories, crazy summons and Gestalt mode to go crazy on. + after 20-25 hours through you will be able to free roam the world of cacoon.

    Clue up people. alot of people would quit after 20 hours becuase they just cba to wait for the good part.

  • WTF 6/10 men those guys shoul'd play the right game, maybe they are playng another RPG

  • this game is awful you guys. if you haven't played it, then don't say shit. I waited four years for this game, just to find out that you'll be running through a tunnel with a pretty wallpaper for the whole game. The story could've been more elaborated, and some of the situations that made the characters be where and what they were are just plain stupid and/or funny in a bad way. Terrible game.

  • looks like the best ff since X2

  • It said that it lacked depth, speed, and moment-to-moment something. But the thing is, those are the things I like and am looking for in an RPG. So, i don't know. I like like the visuals and presentation (and from the looks of it, the battle system) but I'm not sure whether I should get it because it lacks the things im looking for...hmm. I COULD buy it for the novelty i suppose

  • you'll be extremely disappointed. The only rpg thing about this is probably the weapons and skills or paradigms. I've been playing the game for 15+ now, maybe even 20, and just NOW i've gotten the ability to choose the party leader i want and switch the team around. Also, no exploration. The game just puts you wherever the story goes. it feels like a movie in which you have to do all the fighting. fun at the beginning but imma sell it as soon as im finished

  • fuck wired!

  • I understand the criticisms labeled against this game, but I don't accept them!

    I'm an old-school gamer and I love my old-fashioned J-RPG'S!

    Things like turn-based battles, random battles and grinding levels is what I love the most.

    And when the critics complain that XIII is completely linear for the first 20 hours, I rejoice!

    Who wants a free open world anyway?

    It's hard enough figuring out what to do in the real world. That's why I hated Oblivion for example. I want to focus on the story!

  • rpg is all about choice, this game gives you no choice but to run through a tunnel for 20 hours, open gameplay, but soon becomes a tunnel again. not fun man. I was over hyping this game so much, and i am completely disappointed

  • But you could say the same about the classic titles in the series.

    The choice is in how you build your party.

  • RPGs are in fact not about choice, that's something that changed recently. RPGs are about the story and building skills, they're just a video game version of something like Dungeons & Dragons. People have gotten spoiled.

  • FF7 is and always will be the best final fantasy there is/was

  • most revolutionary sure, but the best final fantasy? thats only to opinions of others. i personally think that 7, although had a decent story, it was a very boring game.

  • Is this going to be released for pc and if so does anyone know when?

  • scott bromley from wired gave 6/10

  • this game is corny....

  • he called it a failed expirement but still gave it 6/10 ???? swear to god people today but anyways good review looks like a fun game :)

  • To me it doesn't feel like a Final Fantasy game either, but maybe that's because it was so.. good. Not to say the other Final Fantasy's aren't good, I love FF, but still.

    I still think this game is amazing regardless. One of the few games I haven't gotten sick of after constant playing.

  • lol somehow whatever "wired" is

    they have now Idea what a great success Final Fantasy had, because it's so damn epic. Every. Single. Part. Of. It.

    Though some may be not as good as other, I suppose XIII is being another great one after all I heard and saw.

    If just someone doesn't like roleplay why the heck would they comment after all? It's up to everybody's own taste! Damn people stop acting before thinking!

  • wrong. Play it and you'll see. This is NOT a good game. I was defending the game so much after I read the Japanese reviews, and now I feel like an idiot. Piece of shit game

  • actually I played it on game convention last year and it felt great!

  • @agpethekiller ok save your money lol yes save for your live annual fee instead cuz that's money better spent

  • Failed experiment ?...FFXII is a failed experiment lol this game Is 1 of the better final fantasy games that they actually got right since FFX tht is

  • go play call of duty

  • Amazing Game-play! its so smooth, you cant fault it i test the games be 4 theyre release date by using BetaTestGamers - have a look at their website all they ask u 2 do is right a short review of the game

  • the ratings about 10/10 are a joke serious

    And i dont think that the reviewer of Wired is an idiot, i bet my ass he was the only one who played previous parts.

  • What, the, fuck? Wired gave it 6/10? Failed experiment? The guy who rated the game was a failed experiment.

  • This game was terrible..wasn't worth the $60..didn't fucking FEEL like final fantasy game :/

  • yea i agree i got it yesterday and it dose not feel like a ff game to me ..sux i was hopeing it would b a good game

  • 6 is too much

  • This game looks like star wars , doesnt even look like a normal final fantasy game , mine as well be called star ocean or some shit. I think ima save my money for Just Cause 2

  • wow, which idiot would give this game a 6 out of 10? are they blind or retarded? i don't know. Amazing graphics, battle system i mean common.

  • @muslimgiga they prolly were both with a side of mentel illness. what a shame =[

  • i dont have this yet, but in my opinion ffXii was the greatest ff. i believe they can make a great game by taking elements from this games predecesor, and simply revamping it.

  • Wired always has the best reviews

  • Who ever says this game deserves a 6 out of ten either lives under a rock or hates final fantasy

  • i dont hate ff, but i do hate ff13

  • This game is retarded

  • Your trolling is retarded.

  • does anyone else think lightning remind u of squall? she looks kinda like cloud but her personality is like squalls. i like this game but in my opinion, the old turnbased/leveling/with a bit of romance was the best (7,8,9,10) i want ff to return to wat it was

  • i want versus! when will we get a release date!

  • amazing game. its so smooth, you cant fault it i can pre test the games b4 they come out to the public because im a member of BetaTestGamers - check them out on google all they ask u 2 do is right a short review of the game

  • Well im about 10 Hours in it and So far Its great, seriously love the new battle system even though Snow and Lightning are the only ones with Gestalt Mode but hey still on Disc 2 :D

  • final fantasy 13 = plane crash

    i think 6/10 is the most reasonable score, because if you take out the outstanding visuals youre left with a dull playing jrpg wjrp wannabe

    nothing special bout it unless your one whose easily fooled or just some who would think something is good because it looks good they literally took out the elements that made final fantasy a unque game & experience that cannot compare to other games out there now people are even able to compare ff13 to games like bayonetta

  • @Yutikay nerd.

  • THANK YOU. jesus christ you're the first one. 4 years for a tunnel vision game.... awesome.................

  • Ok, i think Wired has commented to this game wrong, quoting "a failed experiment" giving 6/10

    they didnt even talk about the amazing graphics, new battle system, great story telling and the beautiful theme musics

    it has its flaw; to linear over all great game i go with game informer 9.3/10

  • wired is totally undermining themselves, what are they doing? a failed experiment? i will never take anything they say seriously now, they should think about comments like these before they make them public. its either a hate rating or the guy who tested it doesnt like rpgs in both cases wired sucks. what are they thinking about?

  • FF7 was enough Final Fantasy for my lifetime

  • @tftmc Agreed.

  • never play a FF game not planing onto it either

  • wow fuck you wired 6/10 really

  • i playd it disapointed so far but i havent finshed it yet but 3 houers in it dosint look good

  • @Unspollidquill it starts off slow but builds up mate

  • @Unspollidquill if you don't want it you can give it to me.

  • Well i bought the game yesterday and its a little confusing at first, but overall it is a great game. I'd give it a 9/10.

  • wow mixed reviews much?

  • 0:50 WIN!

  • "real important" people shouldn't review this. Only what the fans think should go, business is all about making you Cletis happy.

  • Leona Lewis alone brings it down to 8 and add the linearity on top of that, sure jrpgs are always linear to some point but no rpg should be as linear as FFXIII is

  • Wired is retarded. A "failed experiment"? Square-Enix has been in this market for too long they know what they're doing. They simply made this game to appeal to a western audience. They're stated that so many times...

  • Comment removed

  • agreed

  • whats the name of this song by leona lewis

  • 'My hands"

  • @GypsyAm1llzRg617 , My Hands

  • My Hands is the name of the song

  • @BlueBeetle43 actually your wrong the name of the song is echo by leona lewis...

  • the name of the song is my hands, echo is the album :/

  • im playing it right know i love this game

    they shouldnt lets retards review games

    wired suks ballz

  • wtf 8.4/10

    it should be 9.4/10

  • @EzioAuditoreDiFirenz  no it shouldn't thanks to the xbox release they removed 40% of the actual gameplay because the hd-dvd simply doesn't have enough space for all the awesomeness this game actually would have.

  • well i sure as hell am never reading wired again.

    don't know there asses from holes in the ground apparently.

  • damn 6/10? i'm liking it so far <3

  • there always seems to be one score with these reviews that always brings the score way down

  • This video itself is actually convincing me to go and buy Final Fantasy 13.........

  • The game plays in 1080p, so this video should play in 1080p or something...

  • I agree,Wired mustve been high that day. I picked the game up today and already played 3 hours,you guys should ignore the bad rep it's gotten,if you like Final Fantasy then pick this up,there are a few flaws but no reason to not buy it. I personally love it and think it's totally worth $60.(including tax)

  • i agree idk what is wrong with wired

  • 0:35 lol afro-bob: "YA, LADY BAAAAD LUCK, YOU JIVE ASS TURKEYS!"

  • @0FredEx hahahahhahahahahahahahaa lololololololool YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAHAHA stereotypes are funny hahahahaha especially 70 refs hahah

  • I'm never playing FF again. I played number 10 and it was pokemon all over again. Run, fight, run, fight. I could even hear the battle theme song every time I got into a battle. It was a truly horrible experience.

  • Don't know what wired was playing, but this is one of my favourite final fantasys ever! This (FF13) FF X and FF 7!!!!

  • Game looks great to me. I'm getting it ASAP.

  • Lol, they don't like the game play.. system. Isn't that how RPG games suppose to be. :\

  • yea some people just dont understand that it has plenty of action for a RPG

  • Comment removed

  • I have the game and so far its really good, if the game wasn't linear at the beggining then you wouldn't know what to do .....

    so it's kinda essential u can skip tutorials.

  • i preordered this game, and so far im a fair bit into it, its basically stopped giving me tutorials n stuff, which is like chapter 4, and so far i love it, id say to people dont listen to reviews, its a well executed game in my opinion, graphics are amazing as you would expect

  • I've been playing this game, so far it a solid game, the two point's that are off is it's battle system, and story. The battle system seems to be half automatic and simplified, Not saying I don't like it but it feels like most fights can be put on an Atto-fight and you would be ok. as for the story, it seems to just throw the characters at you, and 3 chapters into it your still like "Who the hell are some of these people!!!?"

    still a solid game.

  • wtf they gave it a fucking 6? this game is awsome.

  • The "eating some cookies" part made me laugh.

  • wtf! wired dam this looks so epic and i dont even play rpgs! imma go buy this

    fuck wired!

  • ff13 does look epic and is epic just got it today preordered and i want to play it so bad but i know these sites are supposed to be good at reviews but how does it give wired the right to say failed experiment it seems that there stuck in the past of ff and cant acknowledge a new gaming milestone but im not complaining i just think its a bit harsh to say from wired maybe they are the failed experiment lol :)

  • wired can go and suck a dick

  • the graphics look sick as hell

  • How much is it?
