MGR Gaming’s Conclusions:
Lightning Returns Final Fantasy XIII is the EPIC conclusion to the Trilogy we started all those years back. For a more detailed Review of the game itself, have a look at the Review for the game here:
The PC version Review will cover what this version brings to the table and some basic content, the review I linked above gives you a detailed look into all the aspects and features of Lightning Returns.
Lightning Returns pretty much got an upgrade to truly test out your machine’s capability. A lot of the visuals lacking that the console version came out with were improved along with the new rendering and resolution options. With these add ons came all but one DLC. You get to dress Lightning in a wide arsenal of lethal Garbs.
This worlds enemies have no idea of what is in-store for them! When it comes down to the numbers this version sells for a great price, it received several improvements and comes with a variety of extra settings. Best of all it comes with so many DLC’s that you do not need to buy separately.
The list of that content alone is worth more than this games price.
