I thought it was impossible...

What the heck. I picked up XIII-2 for $15. Can't be that bad of an investment at that price. Also got Zero Escape for the 3DS for $25. Both used but like new. I'm satisfied.

Finding the time to play them is the issue. Still gotta start P4G. The Wii U is hogging all of my time. And the only RPG it has is Darksiders II. Haven't decided whether I want to try that one.

XIII-2 is $9.99 new with free shipping from the SE store right now, since they're doing 50% off all games 'cept the new Hitman through January 2nd.

Guess I got ripped off! Whoops. Does that price include shipping?

[isiolia]

Shipping is free to 48 states for the sale, so, yes.

Though, as you mentioned, regular retail for the game right now is $19.99, so in a general sense $15 was good. Just not compared to SE's promo pricing.

As long as I feel like I got my $15 worth I am happy. And I know I will from FF. even if it ends up being one of my least favorites ones.

If it makes you feel better, I bought the collector's edition for full price when it came out, and the collector's edition guide. I've played it for like 90 minutes.

Easily worth $15 I think. If you liked XIII even a little you should enjoy it.

I don't get how people are cool with Eiko (Little girl vagina with a moogle popping out of it?), Amarant, and Quina, but have an issue with X and XIII.

Edea looked completely silly, Cait Sith was ridiculous, Irvine and Zell looked fine but were barely tolerable, Cloud/Sephiroth, Squall/Ulimecia, Zidane/Kuja, Tidus/Jecht... all ridiculous... its Final Fantasy, how are people still surprised by this?

At least every character in XIII has a reason to be there. In every FF from VI up, there are characters that join your party for no good reason at all, an add nothing to the story.

I first played VII and X around the same time, and thought X's stuff looked waaaay more ridiculous than anything in VII. X's designs feel like a parody of the already crazy stuff from VII and VIII.

The character designs from VII on are horrendous.

Amano FTW.

Amano did the original designs for IX iirc.

Have you seen any of the various random art floating around that Amano did of various characters from VII, X, etc?

I like Lightning's new attire.
