I read your review and thought it was really good, peeked my interest again in this game, but the price tag keeps me at bay XD

" @Catolf: I've found some used copies hovering around the internets at about $30, if that helps. But before you commit money to it, ask yourself one question: do you love grinding, punk? Well, do ya? Because when you start to see palette-swapped enemies and you're barely past 1/4 of the game's storyline, that thing is gonna start wearing thin unless you have decent patience or really like JRPGs.  I began writing a guide for this game, but am currently on hiatus due to the game starting to feel a bit repetitive (see above comment) and my console suffering the dreaded Red Ring of Death. "

Well, when you put out a JRPG the same week as FFXIII...

Have thought about getting this. May get it if i can get it at a decent price.
When it comes to grinding, i have been doing it a great deal in FF XII lately, so that will probably not be a big problem.

I totally forgot about this game!
 
I've been busy playing nier but I knew there was another JRPG I still needed to play this year.

Got my gold guns on my second playthrough. 
 
Pretty awesome guns I might add. 
  
Each gun has approximately 8 barrel extensions and like 12 scopes. 
  
What is there not to like?
