I still see value in FF13, but in a way I see value in ODST even though it's not like regular Halo. A lot of people got sideswiped s'all. All the stuff I hear about the writing and lack of gameplay is overblown (and I like Destructoid's Jim Stirling). I've also read glowing reviews on the same game, so all I got is my own thoughts on it when the reactions seem so polarized.
I will say this, I wouldn't go into FF13 expecting traditional JRPG conventions - having gathered so much intel before the fact. I'd still play it for the general experience, and there's some concepts I'm personally interested in creatively speaking. Also:
>>> Resonance of Fate
Guns and shit.
