Square Enix have finally given us a world packed with quests, slick combat and significant depth in how we equip Lightning for battle. So why have they put all this in such a bland world and under a time limit? This could have been a rich game for us to ...

Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII is a good ending to the trilogy. Sure, there may be some rough edges and frustrating parts, but fans of other XIII titles will still enjoy seeing the end of Lightning and co. The game is honestly worth a look for th...

Abstract: While Lightning Returns doesn't exactly convince me that the Final Fantasy XIII storyline and trilogy was a fantastic idea, or that Final Fantasy isn't “doomed,” it at least provided an entertaining experience that assured me the Valkyrie Profile series h...
A much more open world to explore, Interesting new combat systems, Impressive cut-scenes
Too opaque and weirdly unengaging, Confusing story and distant heroine, Needs in-depth knowledge of previous two games
Lightning Returns earns high marks for fan service, and if you had the patience for the two preceding chapters then the final Final Fantasy XIII may go down well. Yet for many of us this is a disappointing conclusion to a disappointing saga, still too op...
