You'll probably like Blitzball more.

They...blocked it.

Did you have 3 guys following you, or was it the goalie? And what team were you playing?

Goalie. Goers.

Took me five rounds of overtime to beat them and after that, I never played another Blitzball game.

The characters are emos?

Also I heard that the tutorial level takes hours to complete. And everything else, too. So what I heard was basically that everything that should take you a few minutes is drawn out to last longer which makes the game tedious. But I haven't played it so I can't confirm that.

Technically, you could say that the tutorial lasts the first half of the game... And in some senses that's true.

My stepdad got FF13 for his birthday!
Of course he goes back to Chicago soon, so I can play it soon

I AM EXITE. I've been listening to the soundtrack a lot, and judging by watching his gameplay, I bet I'm going to develop a great fondness for Lightning.

Terra will always be the best FF female.

I've also read good reviews of Heavy Rain, y'know.

The game is, in my opinion, terribly slow, uninteresting, cliche (lolnoaccent), banal, easy as hell, and doesn't have good characters. The game design is horrible, and the parts in which you have fun... Uhm, I finished the game and I'm honestly wondering if I skipped them inadvertantly. The summons are also pretty bad (Shiva turning into a bike and Odin turning into his own horse, wat).
Only good things I can say is that the game is pretty to look at and the OST, while inferior to most other FF games, isn't bad at all. Gameplay is decent but ruined by the lack of difficulty.

Worse FF game so far. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. XII is leagues better.

That did seem a tad ridiculous.

Oh and, remember, it's my opinion. If you end up liking the game, I won't hold it against you.
