Ok. I am going to go ahead and do my second review. This time I am doing a review on Final Fantasy XIII. Be careful or look away if you do not want to see any spoilers. Ok let us get started. The rating may be higher than your opinion, but that is all that matters. It is just my opinion. 



Graphics-10: When this game came out I took a look at it and saw how beautiful it was. I thought by seeing the gameplay, "Man, I can not wait to play this." I got the game and loved every single second of it. The game engine is actually something I have never heard of until just recently. Crystal Tools. With that said, this is one of the best looking games I have ever played on the PC and Xbox 360.



Sound-10: The sound in this game is amazing and I love the soundtrack. It has the best battle music and sounds I have ever heard in a game. Every single time I hear the battle music I get goose bumps. 



 Addictiveness-9: This game is very addicting. It slows down at chapter 13 where the game becomes a grind fest. Now if you like grinding, this game is for you. I like grinding to a certain extent but when it takes hours to get a few upgrades it becomes more time consuming than addicting. Now I will tell you how to put in less hours. Kill Neochu. He or she contains the growth egg which lets you level up faster. Only problem, he or she is way too hard. Try spamming death. But anyway, I digress. All in all, this game is pretty addicting.



Story-8: Now do not get me wrong. The story is phenomenal! I mean it is probably the biggest story I have witnessed in a video game. Only problem though is that it makes no sense half to most of the time. Unless you pay attention and play the game over and over again watching every cutscene and gathering every tiny detail to put it all together. 



Depth-10: This game has a lot and I mean a lot to do. There are a whole bunch of side quests/hunts in chapter 13, item collecting, weapon collecting, killing every monster, and a very long story. 



Gameplay-9: Even though this category is not up there, I would like to add this. The gameplay is much different than any other final fantasy. For example, your characters move around while they fight, there is no mana system, and the leveling system consists of CP. This stands for crystogen points, which let you upgrade your characters stats a little at a time. Lets say you get 200 CP from a battle. Go to your upgrades, select what upgrade you want, in your selected role, and hold down the button. There will be times where the upgrade will cost 600 CP so that 200 turns it into 400 CP left. And about the roles, they pretty much replace jobs from the older Final Fantasy games. And you can change your roles by selecting a different paradigm in battle. You can also select what roles you want in your paradigms, or auto suggest them.



Difficulty-10: This game is actually really difficult. You can make this game easier by grinding and or using a strategy guide. Other than that, it is a pretty difficult game even for pros.


Overall, I rated this game a 10/10 because it is hands down one of my favorite rpg's.

You don't have to make another post if you forget to add something in, just edit it into where it would have been.

Other that that, the review is good and it looks a bit better so I think if you give it in some time and work on your reviews more, eventually you can have some really good ones, must make sure that you follow everything perfectly.

DestinyHeroDC : You might want to still add in the difficulty section now to the review, it isn't too late and without having it in the actual review and as a reply could make it appear a bit messy so its best to still add it in.

This is an okay attempt for your second review but to be honest this review is missing a few details.

Let me help you out there.

For instance, you could have at least tried to explain the story. Even if you wasn't too clear on what it was about a little research on the web wouldn't hurt. But make sure not copy anyone's work, that's not allowed on vizzed. Mentioning the protagonist and a few characters that are related to the plot is a plus. 

While reading this you can't really grasp/understand what the gameplay is like, besides from the fact that it's an RPG. While being an RPG this game in particular has a very different playstyle from it's previous entries. Final Fantasy X being a great example. Also, before mentioning a random monster or boss you face in the game, explaining the basics of the battle system will give the reader a better understanding on what you are talking about. Always remember that the plot and gameplay are both important aspects in any review.

This review is much better-structured than the other reviews you've written so far. However I still believe it could use more details.

You often talk about chapter 13; what about the other ones? Are they so short it's not worth talking about them? Are there more chapters after that? Could you tell us a little more about the storyline?

janus : I would love to talk more about the game, but I currently do not know if spoilers are allowed. It says that do not put spoilers in your review which makes me kind of hesitant about it.

DestinyHeroDC : Of course they are. You can either write at the start spoilers ahead (as I did for Final Fantasy X) or you can you the spoiler tags
