I Like This game able to make your own attacks without switching to other characters thanks to the gambit system also thanks to the licenses you can obtain more special abilities and attacks just like that its fun earning license pionts when I was kept on playing killing everything that was bad I went to the menu and noticed all these license pionts also all the mist are cool still learning how to do the chains for it though but ya I give this game from a 1-10 a 10. :D

After all the months and weeks and hours (for me it was actually minutes and seconds too) of waiting the game has finally come. In this new action/adventure game I saw the future of gaming by looking at the beautiful crisp graphics I know that from Final Fantasy XII we will see life. The new generation of Final Fantasy is soon to come after this. Tidus's Cloud The character in this new game is seemingly a mix of two you know familiar games. The best-selling Final Fantasy games had a mix of characters in this game. Final Fantasy VII's Cloud is in the new character and Final Fantasy X's Tidus is in the mix. The two of them create this character. The developers apparently did this so they could show their best games over again. A preview for Final Fantasy VII Remake for Playstation 3. A License To Kill A new addition to Final Fantasy XII is that you get License Points from killing your enemies instead of Ability Points that you got in Final Fantasy X. License Points allow you to upgrade your Weapons, Armor, Characters, and Magic. With this addition it allows cooler capabilities and more possibilities of your characters than the chosen path of Final Fantasy X. No sphere grid no panic of where the next move will take you. You choose completely.
This is my pick of destiny

I couldnt put down this game down, you have to get use to the combat sytem but once you do it's badass.The lincense and buy system felt a little old and stale but is still usefull. The charecters are diverse, from your metro sexual here to you gun toting sky pirate and your tough veria. The bosses are very hard in the sense that one will be level 13 and the next area will be 27 so you will need to train.The aspers are fun but the gambit systems a little dissapointing. I cried like a bitch when I had to take it back.
THE Final Fantasy?

With graphics oh so pretty and story deep, at points maybe too deep, and a length that puts you through hours upon hours to just scratch the surface, can there be another Final Fantasy? Hopefully not as long or as deep. The plot is well written but there seems to be a whole lot more to everything at all times, which is trademark of FF(Final Fantasy) games but at times it seems too deep. The new battle system is a blast, allowing you to eventually let your characters fight almost on their own, allowing you to do as you please wether it be ensure they dont die or read a magazine. The new license system is more open ended but may seem daunting at first. Skeptical still? X-2 or X ween you off FF? With Vaan being similar to Tidus you may be weary but the paralells arent much past that. Overall if the game were any different it wouldn't be FFXII. It's worth the buy.
Finally a good FF

Being it has been awhile since FFX came out I have been craving a new FF worth playing. And my wait has not been in vain with the release of FFXII. While I have not yet beaten the game I do have around 36hrs put into it. I must say I like what I have seen so far. The new ADB battle system works very well and I must say even though I loved the old ways, this is defintly a plus. Along with the gambits that you can asign to your party members makes the battles fast paced and fun. Aside from the new way to fight the story and her characters is one of the best in recent FF's history. With Balthier's sliver tongue and Vaan's asking the wrong questions at times "if you know a women is old never ask for her age". All in all this game is a most for all FF fans.

This game rocks! The new gambit system really adds a level of strategy to the game. So you have to plan out your characters moves instead of just mashing x. With a huge world to explore and endless possibilities this game is definitely worth the cost.

Final Fantasy has been around a long time and this has to be the second best, well at least in story next to 7. The game is simply beautiful with stuuning graphics. The game play has evolved into something amazing with its real time fighting. This is why I love this game to death!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm SO confused!!!

Has any one else played this game? If so please tell me that Im on the right track& This game is lacking all aspects of what I look for in video games. The three rats in the beginning jump out of nowhere and and disappear just as quickly& I spent an hour on each rat, only to find there were even harder enemies such as the dreaded Cacti& First of all how in gods name are you able to kill the cactuses, anyways? How can one level be filled with so many bosses? I just started, arent bosses at the end of games? Ive been trying for hours upon hours and they overpower me. I finally made it to level 2 after two days of hard work. I must say, that Im tired and game developers should calm down. I dont know if Ill ever play another Final Fantasy again, all I will think about are the three rats that killed me almost twenty times, stole my shield!! CAN YOU EVER GET IT BACK?! Jeez, Sorry but I rate this game a one.
Finally!!!!!

5.0 So far anything less would be unfair. The opening cinematic draws your attention fully to the plight of a tortured people devestated by war. A breif tutorial teaches you the quick basics of the game and the new battle system. Which for anyone who wanted a new spin on turn based action fighting then you are in for a pleasant surprise. The new battle system is fun and engaging. It gives you the freedom to move around and try to dodge and avoid oncoming attacks. While it make take a few battles to learn the new system it certainly does not take long to realize how much better it will be for the overall gameplay of FFXII. The plot and story thicken as you finish the basic tutorial and then you are introduced to Vaan. As you work with Vaan doing some menial tasks and exploring in Dalmasca you learn the basics of the premise of the story and what you can sort of expect. The graphics are spectacular. I cannot express that enough, and I certainly won't go into major detail as that would defeat the purpose. So far that is all I can say at this point. In my opinion I must say that everything I have seen leads me to believe this game will surpass any of the previous FF in the series.
