I just completed Final Fantasy XIII! And I sobbed quite a lot at the ending, I have to say.
I think Final Fantasy XIII has actually managed to beat Final Fantasy VIII for my personal 'Favourite Central Cast in a Final Fantasy Game' title. I absolutely love four of the characters - Lightning, Sazh, Snow, Fang - and even the characters I'm less

Honestly, my main criticism of Final Fantasy XIII is that I'd rather the post-game save allowed you to start a new game without the Crystarium caps, because sometimes I like to overlevel myself ridiculously. Ah, well. But that's an extremely minor gripe! And the Crystarium cap does at least ensure that battles always have to be strategic.
(EDIT: Oh, all right, and I'd have liked it if some of the missions on Pulse weren't just 'kill this thing'. That did start to feel a bit unvaried after a while.
Incidentally, I ran across a Cie'th Stone that said 'There's a monster roaming around? And I have to kill it? No! I forsake my Focus! It's probably looking for its parents! I won't cause them the same pain I suffered when my child was killed!'
And I couldn't bring myself to take on the mission, because if I killed the creature this poor person would have become a Cie'th for nothing.)
I love this game. I really do. And I've been having great fun going back and reading your entries on it!

Aw, they don't allow a super-powered New Game+? Bummer. Still, yeah, not like any of the other main series titles do, either. And I did really like that I never had to worry about whether or not I was leveled up enough to adequately handle boss battles.
(That mission description was so sad! I passed over it, too. But, yeah, those fal'Cie sure are repetitive in their task-handing-out...)
