Final Fantasy XIII Hits Stores


Published By: Morgan Bates   On: Tuesday 9 Mar 2010 7:00 PM

The thirteenth instalment in the core Final Fantasy is finally available in New Zealand on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.



Final Fantasy XIII launched in Japan late last year - after four years in development - and was met with critical acclaim in famed Japanese publication Famitsu, while a few fans panned it for being too linear.

During the build up to its international release, the western-exclusive Xbox 360 release and PlayStation 3 version met with some controversy over differences between them - most notably the lower resolution supposedly needed to fit the game on three Xbox 360 discs.

If you're still undecided on whether it's worth dishing out the cash, check out our review.

As it should, as it's easily the best game released so far this year.

I will still say FF XIII is better than God of War III. GoW III is only 10 hours long while FF XIII is 60 hours. Graphically I feel FF XIII is superior. Then again it all comes down to personal preference.

You can't say a completey different genre game is better than the other, it makes no sense. Better graphics don't make a better game. One game is an adventure hack n slash and the other is a turn based Game/RPG, you shouldn't be comparing them.
