    This looks to be a phenomenal entry from Square-Enix and is very well looking to be one of the PS3's highlights. I've linked to the most recent trailer below, the game looks to have a great battle system. It looks like with FF XII's daring attempt to add new gameplay changes (and it ultimately proved to be very successful), this system looks to be leaps and bounds above.

    Watch it on YouTube

    Very excited about this game!

      The music and gamplay is/looks really badass! Unfortunately, not planning on buying a PS3 until next year <<

        Well that's fine, because the game isn't coming out for at least a year (a December 2008 release in Japan has been suggested, but that alone is nothing more than a rumor), so FFXIII title would likely come out in 2009, possibly later.

        And yes, the production values, just from that trailer alone, are absolutely sick.

          From 0:48 the music is really great! Is that a violin?

            You do realise there are three XIII titles right?

            that in itself shows what the series has been reduced to.

            it may look very pretty and 'awesome' but i for one dont see a final fantasy, it looks more like a devil may cry clone from the trailer :/

            before you start i should let you know XII is only good thing SQEX have done since the Spirits Within disaster, oh and the port of the original tactics

              I'm well aware laharl, I was just going to focus on the "main" title in the XIII universe that's planned. Should we expand this to include all the games?

              And that is true, we've certainly seen nothing of the plot or any "substance", but this is a highly anticipated game, and perhaps SQEX will pull through and take the series in a new direction.

                My question still stands ^^.

                Man, I think this game is going to be great =)
                The gameplay looks awesome Laharl, but I'm not going to judge it based on one trailer.

                  awesome or not, it looks like a third person action game

                  i fear we may be dealing with Advent Children Syndrome again :/

                  and no it isnt a violin, sounds like some kind of synthesizer

                    I haven't even finished XII yet! How fast do these guys make games? It's like they work on it 14/7 without coffeebrakes. Seriously though, they should stop making games for Final Fantasy. I loved every single part, but to be honest... 13 is WAY too much for a game.

                        The trailer looks all nice and shiny but I reserve judgement until I see the gameplay. I'm kinda hoping that if it does use XII's battle system then it will change a few things, like being able to do a few attacks, then wait, rather than attack-wait-attack. It bugged me with XII and was probably a reason I never finished it.

                            I saw the trailer quite a while ago. The series seems to be getting more futuristic with each instalment.

                              Well given that the first one would be in roughly our middle ages (minus the airship) and this one gets all the future looking stuff, I'd have to agree. IX goes back to the more traditional setting so that one's out of the loop a bit. The closest to ours would probably be VIII since they're driving cars and stuff.
                              Then again it's tough to compare a fantasy world with ours.

                                I like the whole FFXIII/Versus idea. One is a turn-based game, and the other is an action-rpg game. Having both will make it liked by a wider audience.

                                  SQEX should really concentrate on pleasng their core audience, instead of trying to satisfy everyone and failing miserably for it

                                      Well to be honest, it seems like a pretty retarded question. 'Is that a violin?' Why would you find that relevant in the very least?

                                        So, I heard this game's main character is an actually girl, instead of just looking like one.

                                          Oh wait, this is a different trailer from the last one. Better watch it then.

                                          [EDIT] Eh. They just recycled the old video and put in some new footage.

                                            I saw pieces of a trailer in Gametrailers 'Most anticipated games of 2008' (which for some reason didn't include the new Star Wars game) and it does look more like an action-RPG than a traditional one. Still it's pretty flash.
                                            Just so I know, is the girl named Lightning? I'm sure I heard it on the video.

                                              i believe she is, yes

                                              i doubt this will see Western release in 2008, so putting it on your most anticipated seems kinda pointless

                                                Well that's the way I felt. It's not coming out in Japan until December, and that's only if everything goes according to schedule, which it almost certainly won't.

                                                  Lightning sounds like a really bad name for a character. Seriously.

                                                    Maybe it's one of those games where you can change the name of the character. I think I'd give her a name like Sheila.

                                                      I'd rather they stuck with a preset name like they have in recent instalments. FFX felt kind of detached when the characters were unable to say Tidus's name in cutscenes.

                                                        I noticed that. It always felt strange that they could go through such a big adventure, but not ask for the guy's name.

                                                          I always thought of it like it's somebody else's story. The main character may be my avatar, but he's still his own person, on his own adventure.

                                                            ANd isn't there two games, one Turnbased-RPG, one Action-RPG? It's going to appeal to lovers of both genre's.

                                                                                Of course it could all be a way to create a gaming experience the likes of which has never been seen before.
                                                                                Or it could be about TEH MONEY!

                                                                                                        ANd the Pokemon games don't force us to pay for the same game three times?

                                                                                                        For all you know, FF13 could be as good as 7 or 10, you really don't know. So don't say a game will be **** untill you play it. Besides, I think FF13, and Versus, come together. I could be wrong though.

I beleive they had been worknig on FF13 even before 12 was done, which means it has been worked on for quiet a while. It could be an amazing game, you just don't know.

                                                                                                            ANd are you saynig that no company i nthe history of video games has ever worked on three games at the same time, and the games be good? Now I don't expect the phone one to be a masterpeice, but still, I guarantee other companies are working on MORe than 3 games at this moment.

                                                                                                                  It mgiht not coem together, I jsut don't know. And even if it did come as 2 seperate games, so what. If they are both really good, then it is worth buying both. If it was FF13, and FF14, insted of FF13Versus, you wouldn't be complaining.

                                                                                                                  Stop saying these games will be bad, because you plain don't know.

Final Fantasy isn't immune to the fact that a series usually loses its momentum once it's gone on for too long. Everything about it is so, well...unappealing. I mean, I think it's incredibly stupid that Shiva turns into a motorbike.

The latest Crash games and Spyro games SUCK. And besides, FF isn't really going on too long. Each game is like a different RPG, just with the FF name attached.

                                                                                                                                                regarding Final Fantasy XIII

                                                                                                                                                "Okay, so, first off, I'll touch on some new plot elements from FFXIII. There aren't many, really. Coccoon was created by an entity known as "Farushi", which is said to exceed the intellect of men, and it has appointed humans to defend Coccoon from the 'infection' of Pulse, known as "Rushi". Mr. 33cm and Pigtails are both Rushi, and are able to call summoned creatures using discs, and creatures are said to exist "digitally", whatever that means (technology of the Crystal, no doubt). So, you can assume that the two will probably start out as enemies before eventually joining Lightning as party members. I'm not really sure what they're getting at with Rushi and Farushi, you're guess is as good as mine." - Famitsu

                                                                                                                                                "Guns are forbidden in the world of Versus (the guy with the shotgun is said to be a fugitive of some sort).

                                                                                                                                                The location featuring the new female character is inspired by Tokyo's Shinjuku district, with the twin skyscrapers undoubtedly being based on the famed Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building. The other location is based on the Plaza San Marco of Venice, Italy.

                                                                                                                                                There's further confirmation that the game will have a world map, and it'll probably be to a more realistic scale, sorta like FFVIII's.

                                                                                                                                                The guys in the business suits having the meeting in the cathedral-like building are presumably in charge of the kingdom, and I believe were described in the trailer as the "organization which will lead the world to ruin", or something like that. They, along with the rest of the royal family, are supposed to be more like a crime family, and the story itself will have some emphasis on mob drama.

                                                                                                                                                It's implied that the mafioso in the pinstripe suit is probably related to the hero. I'm betting there will probably have some dispute over the throne, if it's as Shakespearean as we're being lead to believe.

                                                                                                                                                Anyway, there's not really much new information, unfortunately. Just generalizations made about the screenshots; the girl looks unhappy when she faces off with the hero, the guy in the white robe appears to be the antagonist, yadda yadda.

                                                                                                                                                          XII is the only worthwhile original Final Fantasy related thing to be released since the release of X.

                                                                                                                                                          chances are atleast 2 of these games are going to suck hard, i wonder how many gaping plot holes they'll leave between the games.

                                                                                                                                                          If you take your fanboy goggles for a moment you'll see SQEX dont makes games with anywhere near the passion or enthuaism they did 10 years ago

                                                                                                                                                            I don't like the idea of the game being split in three, as it would seem to make the story confusing by doing so, but I don't think it's fair to say the series is in decline. Wait until the game comes out, see how it plays, then make a judgement on that.

Now, if they completly butcher these games,(well I don't expect Agito to be any good), then I will jump on the FF bandwagon.

                                                                                                                                                                      I don't like the idea of the game being split in three, as it would seem to make the story confusing by doing so, but I don't think it's fair to say the series is in decline. Wait until the game comes out, see how it plays, then make a judgement on that.


                                                                                                                                                                      I think I saw part of it on Sci Fi a LONG time ago. This chick went into this wasteland place or whatever (like a metropolis that had been nuked some time ago), and there ws no sun. She went into a building and founs a plant, which she bagged, and then bolted out of there because something spotted her.

                                                                                                                                                                      Or something like that. But the CG was incredible. For that time at least.

                                                                                                                                                                      But I just watched the FFXIII trailer, and it was AMAZING. The CG is WAY better than anything I've seen before.

                                                                                                                                                                      But, good graphics does not make good gameplay. I'll wait for the (unbiased) reviews.

                                                                                                                                                                          I just watched Advent Children, so here's my thoughts on it:

                                                                                                                                                                          Advent Children was very cliche, I must say. The part that annoyed me the most was when Cloud was fighting that giant flying monster thing, and EVERY ONE of his friends grabs his arm to throw him up one at a time, all giving him their two words of encouragement. It looked really retarded.

                                                                                                                                                                          However, the fight scenes were awesome, and the CG was amazing as always.

                                                                                                                                                                          But, just because it looks pretty doesn't mean it's a great movie. I was dissapointed.

But regardless, it definately could've been done better. For one, an extra half hour of movie would've made it seem more epic. The length just made it seem like a budget movie. Heck, they could've at LEAST redone the lip movement instead of just dubbing it. It wouldn't be an issue if it was done anime/cartoon style, but the lips not moving according to the words being said, well, it looked bad.

                                                                                                                                                                              Basically, it was okay. The fights were well made, the CG was amazing (no surprise there), but it definately could've been done better.

Although it was interesting in the Sepheroth battle, from themoment Barret, or whatever his name is, says he gives Cloud ten minutes, its exactly ten minutes to the end of the fight. Yes, I did time it. And I like the movie, and have watched it way too many times to count.

But a worldwide release would be convenient, yet I doubt they'll stick to it. That's just Square's style now.

                                                                                                                                                                                          I'm not too sure on the game itself. I know they want to develop the Final Fantasy series, graphics and gameplay-wise, but I'm a bit unsure about the new battle system. After watching the trailers it just seems a bit too manic.

                                                                                                                                                                                          If, however, the battle system was somewhat similar to what you'd find in Eternal Sonata or Lost Odessey, then they may be able to make it work.

I remember an interview with one of the producers of FFXIII, he said that one of the inspirations of the game was FFVII: Advent Children (yes, the CG movie). They wanted players to be able to recreate the battle sequences in AC, so that's the basis of the combat system in FFXIII.

                                                                                                                                                                                                Which, if you remember AC, those battle scenes were pretty ****ing amazing.

                                                                                                                                                                                                    Well, no doubt, AC was very "meh", I'm just referring to the battle scenes which were fairly decent (I enjoyed the one with Tifa early in the movie, and the motorcycle chase scene especially). And having a combat system that plays just like AC would be epic and at least very ambitious of Square Enix.

                                                                                                                                                                                                    Also of mention is that the lead character of FFXIII was created to be a "feminine version" of Cloud.

Does mean they occur in two different times or locations or what?

I mean, I'm glad I'll still be able to pick up FFXIII for the 360, because I've always been a fan of the series, but they've seemed to be lacking after IX. Actually, that's around the time the original creator left, who'd been overseeing all of the games.

I prefer the the two Kingdom Hearts games over the whole Final Fantasy series. Really looking forward to the PSP spin-off.

I'll just have to hope and wait.

I prefer the the two Kingdom Hearts games over the whole Final Fantasy series. Really looking forward to the PSP spin-off.

I'll just have to hope and wait.

As far as I know, hardly any of them are direct sequels to the others, so why have the numbers?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                But generally speaking, it shouldn't be confusing. The real sequels/spinoffs identify themselves very easily, like X-2 or FF 13 Versus.

Sony and SqEnix might have been close at one point, but they don't look close anymore.

I have my doubts that Versus XIII will be released for the 360, but XIII found it's way onto the 360. XIII still won't be coming out until March-ish next year at the least, leaving Square-Enix to make plenty of changes for Versus XIII.

I wish someone like SEGA did that.

They say it will fit on a single Blu-ray, but I'm predicting a lot of hard drive installs for 360 owners.

Maximize FFXIII for the strongest console, should be near brilliant, and responding to fan feedback is a pleasant thing to hear.

They say it will fit on a single Blu-ray, but I'm predicting a lot of hard drive installs for 360 owners.

Though if you want to be technical about it, you'd need about six DVDs to hold the same data as a full BD-DL, maybe four or five if you take into account lower-res textures/cutscenes.

The only reason I'm getting it is because it's now a multi-console game and I can buy it for the 360. IMO, ever since Squaresoft merged with Enix, Final Fantasy has been sucking, so I'm praying this won't be terrible.

Started on FFX, and nothing seems to compare to it in my eyes. VII was bloody awesome, but still, since i'd seen better, it was lacking. Same as IX.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                Here's hoping XIII is as good as it seems.

Enix is the dominant company in the partnership, id imagine the only reason they're called Square Enix is becuase the 'Square' is so familiar with gamers.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Advent Children isnt particularly good either mind.

Yes it was a better 'game' in a lot of aspects, but the world felt too unremarkable, it didn't have the same atmosphere which drew me into Spira.

Started on FFX, and nothing seems to compare to it in my eyes. VII was bloody awesome, but still, since i'd seen better, it was lacking. Same as IX.

Probably my favourite game ever, or at least favourite RPG of both WRPG and JRPG.

On the surface at least.
