I've been considering getting this, but am kind of on the fence about it. I have only played and loved FFIV and FFX. I have heard that XIII is boring, but am willing to give it a shot if someone can convince me otherwise.

I haven't played it, but I own the strategy guide and you should buy the game.

It's one of my favorite games ever, if that is worth anything.

Its a great game. Unfortunately, it receives a lot of undeserved flak from the internet masses. 
I enjoyed all of my 66 hours with the game, and it was the first Final Fantasy game I have ever beaten. 
I also have a thing for linear games, so the first several hours did not bother me one bit.

I would say go for it. I spent like 60 hours with it and it was time well spent.

Yes, play it. Just the visuals and sound alone are worth it. Plus, it's so goddamn cheap now anyway.

buy it, one of my favourite games EVER, so amazing and beautiful.

Can I say yes again?

It's worth a once through, but I don't know how much more you'd get out of it. You might be able to get into the post-game if you really love the battle system.

Its a great game. And at its current price its pretty much well worth it.

It's worth a playthrough. The game has one of the best battle systems in a FF game, the graphics are stunning, and the game us fun. If you can get it for cheap, do it.

You can get it for under 20$ now. Sort of makes me regret the 60 I paid launch day. But it was worth every penny then, and it certainly is now.

" The game is kind of confusing though. I have no idea what is going on in the game so I'm going to read up on it on it's page here. Also, from what I played, it's very linear but the people here say it stops being linear after a couple hours. "

 One of my major complaints against the game was that it never bothers to give you necessary chunks of information in the story itself. It doesn't even attempt to maybe integrate them into the environment. Instead, you have to thumb through some menus and just read pages and pages of texts. Not doing so can hinder your enjoyment of the first six or seven hours of the game. The reason why I consider this a fault is because the game is so largely story focused. It is designed to constantly funnel your forward to progress the narrative but it fails to make it understandable. If I can't understand a character's plight then I have a hard time relating to them or caring about them. Granted, the information is there for you, but it is delivered in the most half-assed way possible.  The game doesn't stay linear for only a couple hours. It stays that way for somewhere between 20-30 hours. "

I think it's worth the 30 bucks it goes for now. Get it on PS3 for sure though. It's good for what it is. I was a huge fan of FFX, and I was pretty disappointed. That said, it's probably worth playing for the price it's at now.
