Final Fantasy XIII-2 for PlayStation 3 Reviews by Gamers

Even though everyone knows FF reached its zenith at 7, I enjoyed 8 a lot and even 13 was decent, but I'm afraid it's time to face reality.

The paradigm battle system is brainless. I can set up a paradigm, give the controller to a 4 year old with the instructions to just keep hitting X and he could clear 90% of the game. How can anyone over the age of 11 find any accomplishment from getting anywhere in this? Every fight I got into was just wasted time, and the story mode is as bad as the battle system.

There is only one good part of this game, without ruining anything, get a mutant chocobo and turn your sound system up.

Keep your auto-battle paradigm system, give me materia.

If you are into anime you will love this game, because that is all this game is a long anime video that tells you to hit a button or 2 every few minutes. IF you like games where you actually control the Battles in the game and not just spam the X button over an over dont get this game, the fight scenes in this game are so bad all you have to do is select 1 thing and it does all your attacks for you. There is no Strategy other then useing a healing spell when ur health starts to get low, well that and praying your preset attacks do more dammage then whatever your fighting. I had more fun playing FF7 for PS1 then i ever will with this stupid game. Dont waste your time with it
