Title: Yuck!
Product review: I have been a role-play fan for many years, and I have to ask "Where is the role-playing?". This is more movie than game, and I'm sad to see that Square decided to bring the series here. I will say that the graphics are stunning, the story is decent, and the sound is good...but the gameplay bites. The major flaw is that you don't feel as if you are in control of anything. The game forces you to go to the next event, witness it, and move to the next. This is how many RPG's start, but this one is entirely like that. Also, the character advancement system is retarded. If you ever want to have a character who is truly great, you will literally have to spend DAYS bringing him around the stupid grid. What was wrong with a level system? And where are the moogles??? A FF title without moogles is just wrong. In short, save your money. I wish I had.
