Square sometimes basks in a self propagated fanboy ooze, however we must give them (some) credit for breaking the 'barriers' in modern game design. Yes some of their notoriety is achieved through publicized hand shakes and money grabbing ass pats, but for the most part they put out an immersive and memorable product. Having said that I have to agree with most of the other individuals that posted their replies: there is absolutely no replay value! Unfortunately this realization smacked me in the face harder than a flanitor on smack, tainting any notion of balanced objectivity to my future fantasy escapades. Even so I faithfully wielded my controller, giving it all I got while the gettin' was good. Next time around I can only hope my battle hardened trigger fingers aren't gravely misshapen from incessant gil grinding.
