I just have to commend Sony. I've been struggling this entire gen trying to find where the real games are at. One watered down game after the other. One shooter after another. One streamlined game after the other. One buggy unfinished mess after the other. Video games have become productions and mainstream and a lot of other companies aren't willing to put money behind a game unless it's going to sell a ton. Sony has gone a different route. Not to make this sound like an insult but I wish the meatballs that are killing gaming would stop. Anyways i got sick of paying for things i shouldn't have to, playing games that strip away elements, and dumb things down. I picked up a PS3 Slim and MLB The Show 10, Heavy Rain and Demon Souls. A top shelf sports game that caters to realism and the sim gamer. An adventure game that they don't even make any more because apparently it's not a game because it doesn't have enough "shooting and action" and won't sell.. And last but not least demon souls. The most challenging kick you in the face game I've ever played. No holding your hand here. This is diablo 1, but better crafted with various monsters, gorgeous graphics and atmosphere and a challenge. You die. You pay for it. You screw up it's your fault. You get better and challenge the AI you get better. No cheese. Just an amazing rpg that got GOTY and is still overlooked. No other console offers exclusives like this.

Yeah most modern games became sucking with the first Doom clones, they don't make games at all like they used to.

I'm on chapter 8... Why do I get the feeling that some people aren't enjoying/ playing the game one day at a time, but rather play it just to rant on about its flaws and come here and post how horrible it is? (SPOILER ALERT SORT OF) === === === (SPOILER ALERT SORT OF...) At any rate by the time I've reached chapter 8 I'm seeing that these characters are round characters and not flat.

Start off as MED/SYN and have Hope cast protect on both your members, then switch to RAV/MED combo keep that up until it uses it's shield ability then switch to RAV/RAV. Then rince and repeat RAV/MED then RAV/RAV combo. You'll beat it in no time. Thats pretty much what I did. Beat him first try.

I used this tactic on a few bosses, it's a good one.

[QUOTE="SteveTabernacle"]

[QUOTE="jeremiah06"]I'm about 12 hours in and the battles aren't easy to the point of boredom anymore(If you relax to much you'll die, alas just hit retry and no harm is done(-_-)). However, what I liked most about final fantasy(game play wise) was the ability to grind my self into God. I'm always just strong enough in this game and I don't like it. The pace of the beginning is horrid I don't think I can see myself replaying this one. Overall this game is fun, the music is good, the characters are likable, Vanille is fine if you're into anime(love hina anyone?), the battles are fun, its not too hard. However, this game has one huge flaw... It's just not Final Fantasy. Had this rpg been called anything else (fal'cie chronicles) no one would have a problem with it. But(and a big but) having the name final fantasy, it creates large expectations and this just lacks the soul of the ff game. As I'm wondering down the winding paths fighting seemingly useless fight after fight I feel no real motive to be doing what I'm dong... No real connection and if it wasn't for Sazh's pet chocobo popping up I'd have forgotten its a FF game.jeremiah06

"Soul" is a very subjective intangible thing. As a long time FF fan myself, I view this game as a return to form after FF12, which to me lacked that "soul".

How can it be a "return" when everything is cut out? Like I said it's a good game its just not Final Fantasy. I've played and beaten all of them(expect the mmo's). Also I loved FFXII... So, I guess there is the difference. We go from expansive open world to closed tunnels. It feels like the entire game is on "easy mode" They could have at least included a hard mode or a new game plus. I'm enjoying the game for what it is but It just lacks the enthusiasm to move forward(what I mean by soul). In all the other FF's I felt like I had a reason to progress but XIII just feels like I'm just going through the motions like a loveless marriage.

Woe is you, lol... I'm enjoying the game, I think the type of conflicts Final Fantasy characters go through make the games interesting. There's plenty of characters in this one with all sorts of interesting stories and problems. The game does start off easy, that's not even a confession from 90 percent of the people who play it. I'm sorry that you hate it and are trying to mislabel it as some other franchise. When Final Fantasy is responsible for 90 percent of what you see in RPGS today, and at least 70-80 percent of what you see in Final Fantasy XIII, that's a sad way to see things.

If you're uppity get a silm. HAHA, nah, there both a descent price now so get whatever one appeals to you. My older system is a back wards compatible, it can play Psone and two games, you won't find that with silms. I can also install another OS on my PS3 and feel that I have FAR MORE modification and computer abilities with it, I have DOS BOX on my machine and can play old PC games on my system, and I can run scripts and write programs on my PS3 ,and play old Lucas Arts Adventure games on my PS3, and install different movie players and ... all this on my PS3, I could never do any of this on a Slim...
