Now if your a fan this game will not disappoint you. For those who have never tried, I have to ask the question..... Where have you been?

If your new to it and wonder if this is your kind of thing let me break down the story for you.

journey takes you through the floating city of Cocoon and Pulse. You battle a variety of foes in an amazing cinematic backdrop and for the first time take the Final Fantasy franchise is in HD (Amazing graphics).

Mechanical Gods force you (the fugitive) to through the city. You never really meet the badman behind all this which is like chicken and sweet corn soup with no corn!

You need strategy and speed when playing this game and while you control one character the AI is more than capable of backing you up with your partners. You can switch roles from Commando and Medic which helps trust me!

Players can respond instantly to the needs of an ever-changing battlefield, adapting their strategy. You have to remember this is a Action RPG and you have to use potions, magic and weapons wisely.

Now you might think this isn't for you, but bare in mind they've shifted 85 million copies over 20 years and considering this is the third in 10 years its been worth the wait.

Where the gameplay can seem a bit repetative and retreat seems to be the first port of call at the best of times, you'd think frustration would set in but the technical features of this game is spectacular.

I recommend this for its graphics and gameplay but needs depth. Not the best Final Fantasy, but still a cracker!
