I don't think its a full year, more like a school year.
I've only played the ps2 version, and I clocked in about 90 hours at the finish. Easily the longest game I've played that didn't involve a ton of sidequests. Even at the 90 hour mark, story was still happening.
I'm still on FFXIII, as I've been spending my nights grinding away at Dodonpachi, but I'm getting there. I'm in some tower on my way to Oerba. The game is really getting mean.
Also, this game makes me feel like there is a ton of content as far as upgrading weapons is concerned, but it isn't giving me enough materials to work on more than one weapon at a time, and only for three characters. I have very little gil, and it costs so much to get a weapon some good levels. Probably my only complaint at this point, but it does get a bit irritating, especially when I have no idea if I am using all my materials on a total shit weapon or not.
For example, I am leveling a weapon with "Stagger Lock" on it, which seems to be a terrible ability. I thought maybe it was FFX style, and that after leveling it up to the next stage it might lose that and gain new abilites. But, when I finally got it to the next stage, it still has Stagger Lock!
