I don't believe it, but who knows. I'm of the opinion that if your console breaks while playing Final Fantasy XIII, the console was prone to failure to begin with. There are just too many people playing the game without issue for me to believe it's the game's doing.

[kevin ball]

I've heard it's the videos that cause stress on the laser, the game itself should be good.

[Theodore Walling]

Is it true that PS3s break down after playing FF13 too long?

My last Final Fantasy XIII save file has something along the lines of ninety-six hours on it and my PS3 is absolutely fine. In fact, I never once even had the game freeze up on me or crash. Many of those hours were completed in several hour long sittings, too. I agree with Wingus. If you're PS3 breaks while playing FFXIII, then I'm pretty sure it would have broken on some other game, too, because something was wrong with it.

[Isabella X]

Well,
I appreciate the input about FF13 breaking the PS3.

New Question:

Does anyone think Square Enix will ever put for sale Final Fantasy Origins, Chronicles and Anthology up for sale on PSN anytime soon?

I still got my hard copies but I would like to buy them and put them on my PS3 sooner or later.

I hope they release FF Anthology too (Assuming we're talking about the UK edition, which is FF4 + FF5) because then all of my favourite FF games will be on PSN. As for Origins, bleh. Not too keen on those two, personally.

Oh, I see. Chronicles is FF4 + Chrono Trigger, while Anthology is FF 5 + 6.

Well, I've never played Chrono Trigger, but I do know that FF4 + FF5 are absolutely fantastic games, despite the dated graphics.

[George PUluse]

got really pissed off at my FF2 soul of Rebirth. i should have trained up my characters a bit more, got slughtered at first, but when i got all four characters, i was kickin' the enemies into the dirt. its gonna take me a long time to prepare for the final boss though.

[Cathrin Hummel]

Just finished Final Fantasy 13, overall I enjoyed it but it's definitely not the best one. The story was a little unclear at times and although they get better later on I found some of the characters to be annoying to start off with. The battle system was different...I'm still undecided on it, there are good points and bad points, but as I said, overall I thought it was a pretty good game and definitely worth the 50 hours I spent on it (haven't done many of the side missions yet though).

Speaking of FFXIII characters, who was your favourite? Snow was mine, by far, but from what I've read on various sites, a lot of people didn't like him at all. :shrug:

[no_excuse]

His constant hero stuff gets a bit annoying at times, but overall he's not that bad. I liked how Lightning grows during the storyline, she's definetly more than just "female Cloud" :hehe:

[Breanna Van Dijk]

I love Final Fantasy, but I agree that they keep going downhill. I'm at the end of FFXIII and I just quit playing it. I found most of it to be tedious. I do like the battle system, sort of, more of the speed of battle and cinematics of battle than the class changing. Changing classes every 10 seconds just to keep up with battle/heal your guys just doesn't cut it for me, I found it very frustrating having to do this constantly.

I do like the challenge of the game though. Compared to its predecessors, excluding FFXI (haven't played it, this is by far the most challenging yet. But I think the forced class changing is what makes it challenging rather than tough enemies. Enemies that also recharge full health every few minutes equals BULL [censored]!
I'm looking at you

. I spent over an hour fighting that thing (second fight), in one try. Took me three tries to do it. Every other boss went down pretty easy, although still put up a fight.

As for the story, meh. Could have been better. I don't find Vanile's voice as annoying as most do. Hope was more annoying, I hate crybabies in my party. Just shut the [censored] up and deal with it, Snow didn't kill your mommy. Grow some balls and fight those that did kill her. This is why I liked Lightning, she doesn't give a [censored] about your feelings, just shut up and fight. Snow was annoying as hell. He belongs in your average everyday run of the mill Anime. The other characters were pretty cool.

The blatantly linear progression was a bad move too. Not too much to say here as most FF games are pretty linear, being JRPG's and all.

Favorite Characters:

FF4: Cecil in Dark Knight form. He should have stayed like this. Mr. Rainbow hair belongs somewhere else.

FF5: Didn't really like any of the characters. They all seemed to generic for me.

FF6: Terra. I dunno I just do.

FF7: Yuffie. Who needs a big sword when you can throw [censored] at people?

FF8: Quistis. She's smart. Also, she looks just like the girl I had a huge crush on at the time... who I rarely get to talk to anymore Get back from Vegas already!

FF9: Steiner. He's an idiot knight. He belongs in a movie with John Cleese...

FF10: Auron. SHUT UP AND FIGHT!

FF11: Didn't play it, not going to, I shouldn't have to pay to play a game I've already bought.

FF12: Fran. sixy bunny rabbit. If I were to become furry, she would be the reason. If I ever do, kill me with fire please. Balthier is also pretty cool.

[Eileen Collinson]

Play Star Ocean 4 and you'll have an even better reason (and she's one kick-ass ass kicker too) And if you were disappointed by FFXIII give it a try. It actually has optional content, including difficult post endboss dungeons, and locations that require you to use the map AND brains oo:

Balthier and Fran were my favorites too, only because they used long-range weapons, the same reason i mainly play with Reimi or the mages in SO4. I leave the frontline swordfighting to AI's hands.

I have Star Ocean 4.

Feels like I'm controlling a very bad Anime.

Combat is spot on though. Reimi is the [censored].

The voiceovers/acting make my ears bleed.

Also, this game makes no sense.

I'm on disc 3, at the beginning.

EDIT: Meracle is cute. So cute I want to kick her and tell her to knock it off.

[casey macmillan]

I've no clue where that is as the PS3 version is on 1 disc (with japanese voice acting as a bonus :woot:), but overall the story did it's job, i've yet to play a game thats story would win Oscars And it gets bonus points for an actually difficult final dungeon, and the final boss was quite a bit more impressive and challenging than the one in SO3 :goodjob:

That's not funny, 'kay?

If I were Captain of the Calnus and Lymle wouldn't stop saying 'kay' after every sentence I would seriously drop her off at the nearest uninhabited planet.

I don't need an Oscar worthy performance, but SO4 is sooooo bad... not quite RE1 bad, but still.

Spoiler

About to fight the Grigori that just landed on En II

I wish I had Japanese voices, I wouldn't be able to understand them and I bet the sound nicer.

I like the difficulty.

The combat is awesome.

Don't like the skill system.

I like the story, it just doesn't make sense. Not as in the plot but parts of the atmosphere. Like kittens.... kittens on En II. Kittens on a highly advanced 3 billion year old starship THAT HAS NEVER BEEN TO EARTH! Stuff like that. I also don't like how all of the races are different breeds of human, unless all of the planets in this sector of the galaxy were seeded by the Muah, otherwise it doesn't make sense.

The enemies as well. All of the enemies are recycled with different color schemes. There is no thought at all put into enemy variations. I am disappoint.

A good by for $20 though.

It's not Final Fantasy and its no Lunar, but it'll do.

I'm not sure which was worse "I'm okay, 'kay." or "Meowreka!" :lmao:

And now you're mocking RE1 :stare: (It's B-Movieness was a part of it's charm )

Personally i prefer the english voices, the japanese sound so overdone :shrug:

The recycled enemies is pretty much unavoidable, witth current standards in graphics there can't be as many variations on enemies as in the olden 2D times. Though old Final Fantasies recycled enemis quite a lot too. There was plenty of recycling in FFXIII too.

Personally i like SO4 much more than FFXIII, much of it has to do with the battle system and open environments. Sure they are just as corridors as the ones in FFXIII, but they are disguised a whole lot better

[Jason King]

I just got Odin

I got him on my second try but man he was tough and Hope almost died a couple of times but I was able to keep him up. If he had died that would have been it because he was really going after Hope and it would have been difficult for Lightning to get her attacks in.

I hated Hope with a passion.

How does that even work? How does someone take a RTS and mod it into a turn-based JRPG type battle system? That's a pretty modable game, I'd say.

[Paula Rose]

Is there any evidence for any new final fantasy film?

[Kevin S]

Ok, I'm looking for a new FF game to play, I played FFX a few years back and im on the final boss in FFXIII, I heard FFVII was pretty good. So other than saying all of them, what FF game do you guys suggest I get?

[Rich O'Brien]

My favorite FF games are FF6, FF9 and FF12, in that order. So those are the ones I recommend

And I'm no fan of FF10 or FF13, at all. So if you like those games, my recommendations might be poor for you.

[asako]

My favorite is FF12, it's one of my favorite games of all time. Then again, I've only beat 7, 10, and 12...
