The same guy reviewed Type-0 and gave it an 8, so no, I don't think that's quite it.

I'm not complaining about it I'm not even going to get this game. I'm just saying what they wrote in the review describes a game that deserves more than an 8.

Just watched that GT review.
Wow. This game looks terrible .__.

When the reviewer was like "LOL THIS GAME IS BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL IN EVERY WAY!!" I was just like... seriously? I'm not seeing it. And is your whole party Serah Noel and monsters? Seriously? That's just terrible. Oh man. So glad I didn't pre-order this. Definitely getting this used.

I'm not watching any reviews or anything, but I saw videos a while ago about the battle system and it looks great.

That's really all that matters.

I'm pretty much the same, and it doesn't take all that much to keep me interested in terms of gameplay, just needs to be fun. The story could be the craziest, stupidest, worst, convoluted mess ever. I wouldn't care.

Battle system is definitely important, but I like to play RPGs for the characters. Serah and Noel look super lame. Especially Noel. And if there are no other party members. Yeesh.

I always hoped Serah would be playable at some point in FFXIII so I'm fine with her being here, but I agree with Noel looking lame.

being able to use monsters in your party seemed pretty cool in the demo and I don't mind sacrificing other party members for it if the NPCs don't end up being terrible like they were in FFXIII.

In other words, Final Fantasy XIII-2 does not allow you the option of traveling back in time and accidentally becoming your own mother or father. This is important. It should be the metric of a true time-travel story—that anything can change anything.

I have no words for how dumb this is

The answer is they don't. Kill Screen is an autonomous entity that Pitchfork partnered up with last summer.
