One of the top 5 WORST games I have ever played on Xbox 360. I don't recommend this game to anyone.
I've never played the Final Fantasy series before so I was expecting this game to be good, but it was just the opposite. If you've never play this game, don't start now. You are not allowed to manually fight, you choose the actions and the computer does the rest. It isn't an open map it's very narrow and way too many video clips. There is about 3 hours of video clips that seems to consume the entire game.
I paid $60 for this game, and I would not have paid $20 for this. It's just not worth the time. Some people are going to disagree with me on this, but this game is nothing like the role playing games I'm ever use to.
It's more like Pokemon fighting style.
