Following in the heels of Final Fantasy X-2, Final Fantasy XIII-2 is the second direct sequel to a numbered Final Fantasy game, not counting all the expanded universe spinoffs for Final Fantasy VII. I enjoyed FFXIII in spite of its numerous, rampant flaws, so when I heard that it was getting a sequel that expanded on its gameplay while refining the problems players had with the previous game, I was pretty excited. A demo was released that tempered my expectations, as it didn't seem to have much new and its characters didn't capture my attention, so I held off on buying the new game until it was around $10. I'm glad I waited. Not only do I consider this game a bad sequel to FFXIII, I think it's probably for the worst game in the series.
