Final Fantasy XIII is my favorite out of the final fantasy games that I have played. The graphics blow me away and the gameplay is so much fun. Although the battle system is hard to get used to at first, it easily grows on you and creates a new kind of gaming experience that requires you to think and use your mind other than just your fingers. I bought the game the day it came out and i am still playing. Storylines of the FF games have always been very unique and this one doesn't fail the reputation. Overall, this is an amazing game but if they could change one thing about it, it should be the linear game play. There is really only one path to take but they manage to create a lot around that to make it more interesting. I suggest this game to anyone looking for a great RPG to play in your downtime.
What's great about it: storyline, graphics (never seen better on PS3), hours of play, new battle system
