Talking to the GS manager he said that the PS3 actually is selling 3-1 vs the 360 version. It's about time people get it right. Bare in mind that this town I'm in is a 360 town. Some might have actually done their research this time around.

Anyone know where the musings thread is? I had more to report on other platforms but searching fails me on google.

It's difficult, though. It is one thing if said manager is the GAFer, but who knows if that's the truth or just a fanboy with an axe to grind? Excited for NPD, though.

I think they were separated by month. Start a new one! I miss those things!

Just finished Chapter 5 which I didn't plan on but just couldn't put the controller down. I love the game but I really wish we had more control over our parties. Not looking forward to another couple of hours of Vanille's voice acting.

Chapter 9 boss was probably my hardest fight for the whole game until I got to the last third of the missions.

I'm not digging the music so far. About 10 hours in there are a couple of catchy tunes but nothing that awesome.

Anything that gets better?

Still only 3.5 hours in, but just got Paradigm and the game just got so much better. Love the fast pacing, cannot wait for full utilization.

And holy gif overload, Batman!

Just got to the part of Chapter 9 where
the old pope dude shoots Jihl. ;_; Having some trouble beating him after I initially getting him to stagger when I get him one on one.
Tips would be much appreciated.

I asked this before but I didn't get a response, does anyone know:

Does mixing up your abilities in a certain way (ie. Fire-Flamestrike-Fire as opposed to Fire x3) make the chain gauge fill quicker. I noticed that sometimes when I use auto it does a mix, even when the enemy has no particular weaknesses.
Click to expand...
They must just do it for style, to mix things up. I posted a link to this FAQ before. Look at the skill section, you can see all the properties. Fire and Firestrike each add 10% to the chain gauge. Firestrike does 1.2x the character's strength and Fire does 1.0x the character's magic. For my Sazh at the time, this made them pretty much identical attacks since his strength was lower than his magic.

GET! Look at it this way: This thread has almost 4700 posts by almost 800 gaffers. Good or bad (it's GOOD), it's got the discussion going. If nothing else, you can make lots of new friends talking about it. ;)

*Disclaimer: The person who has posted the most in this thread hated it. :D

I think enough people like the game. It clearly has some faults, but goddamn isn't it fun. Beautiful and the battle system is amazing.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Phew, heading to bed now.

Been playing this for 23 hours with only toilet breaks so I deserve it.

I like it btw.

Yeah I've been struggling to get 4 hours of sleep just so I can get sufficient time to play at night. So far it's been worth it though.

Is what I'm yelling right now. I just began chapter 6 and what the hell happened to the difficulty? I keep getting stomped over and over by these monsters. I die 3 times a fight and i have to keep switching constantly to stay alive only to have my main go down in 1 freaking hit.

Please tell me the rest of the game is not like this...

It must suck having a job, and I've never had any kids so I can't comment on that. If it wasn't for medical science I'd leave my apartment for more reasons than getting food or having my blood collected. :lol

Considering how Hope realized they were l'Cie at the first sign of magic, I'm sure Vanille wouldn't have dared to show that she could do it.

Well, I just finished chapter 6 and I didn't die once in that chapter. Does that encourage you?

(I have a sneaking suspicion that the people who spend the first 3 chapters "just mashing X" and complaining about that are the same ones that will complain about difficulty later)

Gamestop wouldn't let me exchange my PS3 copy so I had to trade it in. It was worth $45 and I got an extra $3 from my Edge card.

That's not too bad. Probably only got that much now due to the extra 50%.
