Jon Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Can't believe how divided people seem to be on this game. Some are saying it's a breath of fresh air for the series, whilst others are saying it's shit. Who to believe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shino Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 http://www.destructoid.com/new-final-fantasy-xiii-trailer-superb-voice-acting-160375.phtml I just watched this trailer and ugh... UGH... Its not that the voices are bad or that the characters are effeminate, but how can anyone be interested in this! Over the top melodramatic fmvs that are so completely disparate from the gameplay its like they were developed separately. I don't think any other trailer could make the game look more boring.

Caris Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Because it's Final Fantasy, and Final Fantasy has a amazing reputation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart what I guess is Christina Aquilera singing in the background I thought that was really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Fucking hell, the people reviewing Final Fantasy XIII must have been expecting the next coming of Jesus if they're getting that worked up about it. I could get thirty hours of entertainment out of just watching videos of this bad boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero-of-Time Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I watched the trailer last night on Xbox Live and loved it. I haven't been that hyped up about the game but the flashy FMVs and action shots did the trick. I didn't mind the song either. A few of my mates watched it last night and loved it aswell, made for some good crack at work today. Now I just need to decide which console to get it on...

drahkon Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 A few of my mates watched it last night and loved it aswell, made for some good crack at work today. Now I just need to decide which console to get it on... For me it's PS3. I don't know. Pretty much every FF game I played I played on a PS system. So I guess it's tradition.

Sheikah Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I always justify purchasing the PS3 version (own both) by the fact it's usually always on one disc, I won't need to maintain a subscription to play online (should it have the option) and I may have a console to come back to should I wish to play it again in a few years time. That, and I prefer the PS3 controller, too. And it isn't really loud to have my PS3 on. Unless of course the PS3 version is massively worse, for whatever reason, but given this was initially intended for the PS3 I can't see that happening.

Roostophe Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 This is the Internet, you don't need social skills and mine was a joke, too. You didn't mind calling me up on that one, did you? Fahking hypocrite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 You're both shit at this :p It baffles me that they chose an X Factor winner for this. Hearing several versions of a Leona Lewis song through a Final Fantasy will be boring in comparison to the usual unknown breakthrough singers. I tend to like to research them like I did for Utada Hikaru after Kingdom Hearts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fahking hypocrite. No wonder most people on here think you're a socially inept weirdo. Really... I'm still somewhat looking forward to this game, but there's a lot of decent stuff coming out early this year. I definitely like the sound of White Knight Chronicles, and Heavy Rain sounds interesting. Choices, choices.

Roostophe Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 We're all socially inept weirdos, that's why we're on a fucking forum talking about videogames, genius. Talk about takes one to know one. Really… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheikah Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) I'll happily state that I'm outside of that niche, contrary to what you believe everyone on this forum is. We're not all social life-lacking people, you know. All I'm saying is that you often seem to misread people and stumble in these sorts of social situations. Your replies often seem really strange.

Hero-of-Time Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 I can't stop watching the trailer, even the song has grown on me. I think i've watched it around 10 times now on Live. I got a text message off a mate yesterday you had just watched it, he thought it was fantastic and cant wait to get his hands on it. Well done S-E, you have scored a few more sales just by using a flashy trailer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised you haven't been posting the most in this thread, I thought you knew it was made by the same team behind Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy X and X-2.

Some are saying it's a breath of fresh air for the series, whilst others are saying it's shit. Who to believe... Im expecting a shallow, candy-filled spectacle of a game and nothing more. If it turns out to be more than that ill be pleasantly surprised. A linear 30-50 hour RPG could actually be a good thing depending on how well its paced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
