I think you should give it a chance, Vyk. You can pick XIII up dirt cheap now, so if you don't like it then it isn't like you've wasted a fortune.

I've played through XIII twice, and all this talk of it is actually making me want to play it again. There are so many other games coming out soon though, and unfortunately I don't have a copy of the game anymore so I'd have to buy it preowned. Plus I'm already playing FFX HD at the moment.

At the end of the day if you don't play it yourself then you're never going to be able to form a true opinion of the game as you'll be too busy listening to all the negativity from others.

Go on. Try it. You know you want to ;p
