    Once the price goes to 20 dollars. Same opinion I had with XIII-2.

    I dunno. I feel like the FFXIII games, while okay in their own right, lack most of what I look for in an RPG. I heard about the time limit element in this game, and while that sounds interesting, I hardly want to force myself to play a game where the universe doesn't grab me and I don't like the main character (from what I played of the first game)

    FFXIII didn't capture me as much I wanted it to, and I didn't even play FFXIII-2.

    Maybe if i find them both in a used game outlet thingie in a couple years. At this point I'm more hopeful towards FFXV not being smurfed up.

    While I did enjoy the original game. Sheet got old fast. The sequel wasn't all that good and ended up creating more plot holes and not really fixing anything or changing anything for the better. The whole DLC thing was stupid and the ending was one of the most retarded things I've ever seen within a video game.

    So " I don't think so Tim ". Is my answer. Plus SquareEnix has said that this was the last "Lightning " game they didn't say that it was the last " Final Fantasy XIII " game. So I'm kind of seeing a another crappy ending and more FF XIII games flooding in the gates. Oh and more costume based DLC.

    I just want a new beginning and a new fresh plate.

    I can't form any opinion yet but for now "yes" this has nothing to do with XIII or FF elements in general sadly, I just like the illustrations especially oasis, gameplay direction such as transformation like X-2 and Cutey Honey and i kinda don't want to play any JRPG with strong MMO influence or with low-input at the moment so yeah.

    I definitely will!

    I really liked FFXIII and loved FFXIII-2 for the changes it implemented + the new characters and villains. So if they can improve on the storyline and mythology for the last one in the saga, this will be a day-1 buy for me (heck, I'll probably buy it regardless!)

    Final Fantasy games I have beaten: FF9, FF4, FF7, FF13, Dissidia 012, FF10, FF13-2
    Final Fantasy games I'm playing: FF5, FF13-2, Okami HD, Gravity Rush

    I'm buying it, eventually. I don't think a day 1 buy would be a good thing for me to do, but I enjoyed XIII and I loved XIII-2. Plus, I NEED to finish the story. I hate not being able to see how a story really ends. Closure is an important thing for me.

    I am with Levian on this. Played the first, was not thrilled, skipped the second entirely for that reason, and unless there is something new, fun, and crazy with the third installment, I will continue to abstain.

    I loved the first two so I will definitely be purchasing this close to launch.

    Yes. Probably on launch day. I didn't really enjoy XIII that much but XIII-2 fixed a lot of my gripes with XIII and I feel it's overall a superior game. So if they continue that trend then I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and get "XIII-3"

    (of course I'd much rather they get around to releasing Versus XIII)
