Trivia
Many fans criticized Georgia Van Cuylenburg's performance as Vanille, singling out her supposed unauthentic Australian accent, while simultaneously praising Rachel Robinson's accented performance as Fang. Ironically, Robinson is from Los Angeles and Van Cuylenburg is from Melbourne.

Goofs
During battle sequences, Snow's trench coat has artwork on the back; however, in the field, there's nothing there. These designs serve as Snow's equipable "weapon" as the design changes as the player equips new weapons. Equipped weapons appear in battle and do not appear in the field for any of the characters.

Quotes
Oerba Dia Vanille: When it comes to home and family, we never keep either as close as we should. Who ever thinks that this time could be the last?

Crazy credits
The background image used in the The End title screen is the crystalized Cocoon.

Alternate versions
The Xbox 360 version of Final Fantasy XIII required 3 discs to play and when the player got to the end of Disc 1. A message would appear Please Insert Final Fantasy XIII Disc 2 and when they got to the end of Disc 2 another message would appear Please Insert Final Fantasy XIII Disc 3.

Greatest Final Fantasy Ever

I finally got my version for the Xbox 360 of this amazing game, after all those words about being too lineal or too boring, here's my review of 6 hours of game (if it gets different, I will update this review) I won't talk about the story, don't want to spoil anything, except saying something about the people who says this is the worst "Final"...well I have played all Final fantasies and the first one was the VI, all I wanna say is that this is by far the greatest in characters, story, graphics, fights, everything.

Story: 10/10...the best story I've ever heard from a game, it captures you, it makes you feel their pain, their feelings.

Graphics: 9.8/10...The best graphics I've seen, even from the Xbox 360 version, they both look amazing (put a 10/10 for the PS3 version)

Sound: 9.8/10...The only game I ever liked the music was Final Fantasy VII, but this game is too much, I love the battle theme! The voices are great (Vanille is maybe too loud, but you get used to it)

Duration: 9.7/10...50 to 60 hours the principal story...more than 100 hours to get all done, is it enough for you?

Gameplay: 9/10...yes, it is lineal and straight at the start, just fighting and hearing the amazing story from these great characters (specially Lightning OMG I love her!) but it doesn't look boring for me.

RATING: 9.8/10 : It is the highest note I haver ever putted on a game

I know all the bad reviews but I just LOVED the game, story, characters (I repeat, Lightning is too much!!)...everything! It's lineal at the start, yes...but a lot of games are too (counting Final Fantasy X, Devil May Cry, Call of Duty, etc)
