   This was pretty cool, but the gorgeous visuals were pretty much the only selling point of the original games, so I can’t help but feel a video like this isn’t going to do them as many favours as they hope 😛

      Actually, as pretty as the originals were, I totally would enjoy playing this version more

         But the non-senesical plot and terrible characters (imo) would still remain…

   Eh, I prefer Spoony’s retrospective.

   I like how they perfectly condense FFXIII into 7 minutes. I learned as much here as I did playing the original.

   As well made as that was, I felt like I just watched one of those CollegeHumor parody videos. The plot of XIII-2 seemed like it was a bad ripoff of Chrono Trigger, glad I jumped off that train…

   I understood more in those 7 minutes than I ever did playing the two games and I can’t help but feel Squeenix was a little self aware when they put it together. Is it wrong I laughed at the time lapse of Caius and Yeul? Does anybody else expect Lightning to say “I’m Spiderman” after she says “You should know who I am.”?
