Just "Eh" in my opinion. If you've never played 6-10 I'd suggest getting any of those first, you'd save yourself some money and get a better game. Can always buy this game like a few years from now for a lot less money.

I agree. It's not bad, but it's nothing spectacular (other than the amazing cutscenes and CG).

Just replay FFXII, it's ten times as good, and the most similar to XIII. You aren't missing anything, sadly.
XIII had a lot of potential, but the amount of control you have over your characters is laughable compared to XII and X (only speaking of modern FFs).

Rent it, beat the main game, and move on. There are only a handful of the 64 missions worth mentioning.

was the only final fantasy that i ever refused to play after 10 hours of game play

if i wanted to watch an anime movie i would have watched death note again or something

spamming auto attack got really boring about 5 hours in and the fact that all you do is change paradigms once in a while and spend crystals was horrible

no cool mini games or side quests either (wish i could play ff7 and 8 again for awesome mini games)
