ff XII

graphic 10/10 - Is the best ever
playsystem - very nice - however i like turn-based rpg - but 10/10
storyline - worst ever 1/10

in FF XII, its no longer turn based with random battles popping out of the floor.

In 12, you can see all your enemies and they move around and stuff and you have to run up and attack. You do not select all your moves then press "go" to begin the turn any more, it's now like free roaming, you just click attack and you will hit him, then the attack takes a little while before you can hit again.

And your party members no longer stay in your pocket, they need to be out due to the new battling mode.

It's very different, I say RENT FIRST.

It's a very different game, and may not be for everyone, i myself liked it though.

This is true. I played ff8 then jumped to 12 without playing other games. And the fight is not like ff8 where you command your fight and stay in the same spot, making this either the enemy will hit you because you are motionless (standing in the same spot)
In 12 you get to run around trying to avoid the hits. For example, in the 122333 game on ff12, you shoot your fomalhaut (gun)from a distance. and then if they didn't die on the 1st hit, you can program attack again and run away. when the attack is up you can shoot your gun again getting 2 hits without them hitting you once. And this helps alot for 122333.

12 for me is a love hate relationship i cant realy explain it
neways deffinatly rent it first

I say buy it, its gd to experience the new battle system that goes wit it.
