Yes, XIII has it's flaws but I still enjoyed it. Actually, I enjoyed the music more than the game itself. Anyways, here's my positives and negatives:
Pros: Music, Graphics, Environments, Lightning, Fang, Sazh, story for the most part.
Cons: Snow, Hope, Vanille, too easy of a game, Final Boss (envelope opener?), linearity isn't exactly a big thing for me but this game had way too much of it.
Having no villages in the game (in RPG terms) didn't bother me.
Overall, I gives this game a 7 out of 10. Isn't the best FF game but certainly isn't the worst because I found it entertaining...so sue me.
Reason the Vita isn't a resounding success is because the Japanese people don't care for the games that launched with the handheld. Same with the 3DS. Once Mario Kart, Mario 3D and Monster Hunter launched...take a look at the sales.
