Jan 31, 2012What's wrong with a game has a direct sequence (even if it is more a) if it is a wonderful game? What's wrong with the story complete trilogy format, or quatrolgogia or quintologia? A wonderful game can not escape the conclusion to his story ends it in an upcoming episode? Why require a "middle chapter" finish the story of the game?

Jan 31, 2012Everyone has the right not to like Final Fantasy CURRENT. But when you call it "garbage" and said the series "Died," the millions of fans today, feel the least offended. You hater need learn about respect.

Jan 31, 2012Where are the masters of these fans to be continue to criticize the decision of Square Enix? They criticize everything the company does, how DLCs. Every game company today make five hundred DLCs and nobody says anything, and when the Square do ...

Jan 31, 2012I must say I am enjoying this Final Fantasy much more than I did 13. I do wish that some more attention to characers were made, but over-all the story elements, combat, music and other additions have greatly improved since 13.

Jan 31, 2012While vain haters saying that the series died on 8, at 9, 10, 6 ... in the game celebrates 25 years with much success, having sold until the thirteenth time about 7 million copies, and XIII-2, they lost some public in Japan, making this much success in the U.S., and pre-sales with 150 000 units more than its predecessor.

Feb 1, 2012Excellent game. Fantastic story and great characters. Can't wait for the DLC to follow up, although I still currently await Final Fantasy XIII-3, if it comes out.

Feb 2, 2012The Final Fantasy series is back... The story was never the great strength of the sequels, but the gameplay has been improved very dramatically for the better, no doubt, if you're a fan of the series and the genre, you should play it.

Jan 31, 2012Funny that almost all animes use and abuse of the To Be Continued, FF seems already prohibited from using it. There are chapters and more chapters of Dragon Ball Z for example, that are pure **** surpassing even the novels of Globo and Televisa.

Jan 31, 2012Final Fantasy fans have their real needs and not those that have been, but today only know how to criticize. You are a leading zero to Square Enix! Sorry, but this is the truth. Recalling that the Square already registered the name Final Fantasy XIII-3.

Jan 31, 2012What can I say about this wonderfull game? better than the original in almost every single way...better than the original in almost every single way, I wanna XIII-3 now!!!!!!!!!!!

Jan 31, 2012The CEO Square Enix Yoichi Wada and the CEO of Bic Camera, Hiroyuki Miyajima continued with speeches short. Wada noted that XIII -2 has been enhanced to overcome the XIII in all aspects. Miyajima said the pre-sales for the game were strong in your store, and expressed hope that they sell more copies than anywhere in Japan.

Feb 5, 2012The new FF is simply great ! Ok,the story is stretched and functional satisfying but the game also improved in many ways.

Jan 31, 2012Joguei a versao japonesa e posso dizer que foi o melhor jogo da minha vida! Claro que a historia nao se conclui, mas nao vejo mal algum em termos FFXIII-3. Estou ancioso ja para saber o que ocorre em seguida.

Feb 14, 2012I never liked Final Fantasy before the XIII part and then become a fan and lover. The sequel covers the most amazing thing you can tell within a story- time travel. Its awesome how the strory tells certain things and the ending is the one of the best endings i have ever seen. The fighting system is much more improved and the graphics are still the best of this generation.

Feb 6, 2012Unlike the XIII and -0 Such that their releases were made Tsutaya shop in the mega Shibuya, the events of Final Fantasy XIII -2 will be held in Bic Camera in Yurakucho. T was beginning to 6:30 am, followed until the start of sales at 7:00 AM on 15th December (19h on the 14th, here in Brazil, Brasilia time).

Apr 4, 2012I enjoyed this game I feel like people are to harsh on final fantasy. there are really high expectations for these games and you start to feel bad for them at a certain point. I mean the hatred these games get seems unwarranted.
-
Jun 4, 2012Great game, but why is it once again necessary to beat the game and then play a load of levels again to unlock everything? I wonder if to make sure casual gamers can at least feel a sense of achievement but I find it slightly irksome. Nevertheless, the amount of content in the game, if you want to try and collect everything, is impressive.

Feb 11, 2012I'm amazed that people think the story makes no sense. My theory is that these people are either illiterate or only played the demo. The game isn't perfect, but it's so much better than XIII that it's shocking that it's not getting the attention it deserves. It feels like an honest to goodness Final Fantasy game. Something that can not truly be said of the last 3 games in the series.

Mar 13, 2012I really enjoyed this game it fixed all the problems XIII had it was very nonlinear and the story was certainly a step up.The writing at times was a bit silly but easy to get over had an ending with less cliches then I expected and I really enjoyed this game.

Sep 5, 2012Improves upon the original in every way. Characters are more likable and develop as people more, the story is more in depth and the world is very open. Not the best FF but a very good one in my opinion.

Sep 3, 2013Thought the story was better on the original (XIII) and there were hardly any cut-scenes in this. The fighting's still fairly rubbish and I was mashing A for auto-battle a lot again, but this one improved it slightly tho by using monsters as the 3rd character.
Part 2 was a lot less linear and u had more freedom to go where you wanted so extra points for that. -
Jul 31, 2014I really enjoyed Final Fantasy XIII-2. I loved the story, the battle system, and I love the world. I liked Serah as a protagonist and I enjoyed how she developed later on throughout the game. I recommend this to all. It is a fun and enjoyable game.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Mar 22, 2012Stand-alone expansion pack you will not want to play for of the story, but only for its battles. [March 2012]

Mar 18, 2012If you take XIII-2 and grade it on its own merits, it stands out as a fantastic game. But, if you walk in looking for some semblance of what made the series a household name in the RPG world, you'll be sorely disappointed.

Mar 2, 2012With numerous endings, extremely challenging bonus bosses, and a pokemon-like addictiveness of trying to catch them all, Final Fantasy XIII-2 definitely surpassed my expectations and I'm glad that many of the shortcomings of XIII have been addressed and fixed. If you were let down with XIII, give XIII-2 a shot, you might be impressed with all the improvements and changes.
