A very good JRPG
I bought this game on black Friday, and I finished it yesterday.
The game is no Final Fantasy, but the story is good, the action is satisfying, and the presentation is really good.
Many professional reviewers beat on this game, but as a self-proclaimed "hard-core" gamer, I thoroughly enjoyed my time with the game.
If you're into JRPGs, this is one of the best ones on the market for the current generation of consoles.

If they only stopped talking
The game play was fun it was pretty the music was nice and the characters did not look bad at all. the maps were pretty the fighting was cool... however....
However the story was so bad! I did not think any story line could get wrose then FFX-2... (and I was a huge FFX fan). The story was weak and everything they said was so stupid! It was like listening to a bunch of five year olds talking about the issue that was at hand. Then Capell was pissed off because his two friends were murdered right in front of him, he was going insane then all of a suddent Aya hugs him and hes back to being immature again I could not handle the lameness of what they said.
I do say the whole idea with Capell and Sigmond was really neat, but I figured that whole plot point out way before they said it in the game. so watching the characters figure "omg" was dumb.
The end of the game was not worth it I felt cheated.
The endings for all of them was sooooo stupid! I mean how did they get to that point?!?
If you want to play this game SKIP all the movies, because everything else is nice. but I had to mute the TV half the time to save my brain.
but it really is fun to play.

almost... but not yet there
Even with all the gripes added up, the game is still fun. If you loved other tri-Ace games like Star Ocean, Valkyrie Profile, or Radiata Stories, you owe it to yourself to at least try this one. It was too easy for me to say just another hour and end up playing for another three.
Pros-----------------
Battle system - it's awesome... except for using items (more in cons). This action-adventure-ish battle system never really gets boring, and if it ever does, you have the option to just run by the enemies. Unless you grind to raise your levels, you have to use your skills and equipment well to get through the dungeons and beat the boss.
Short loading times - Pretty self-explanatory. I haven't experienced another game on the 360 with shorter loading times.
Main story/characters - The main story is well told and the main characters are well developed by the end.
Cons-------------------------------
Items in battle - Opening the menu to use items doesn't stop time, and there's no way to assign items to a button. Also, getting knocked down while having the menu open closes the menu... meaning if you (or anyone in your party) are in the process of getting clobbered up, you (or that person in your party) can't use any items. Which is bad because when you want to revive someone, you're usually being clobbered up.
Unfinished towns - When you visit a town, you'll find doors that don't open, stairs that are crudely blocked by crates, and invisible barriers that block you from going down an alley. It makes me believe the developers didn't have enough time to execute their initial plans.
Not many save points - Mainly because of the problem with using items during battle, you will die at some point in this game. You're then sent back a half an hour or two to the beginning of the dungeon. And you don't get to keep your experience points you accumilated since the last save point.
Non-main characters - aside from the main party members, the characters don't have much of a backstory. This is a tri-Ace game, and I expected something like from the Star Ocean series where there'll be some optional events around a character to flesh him out. This game doesn't have much of them, and when it does have them, it's a chore to get through.
