Some additions:
- they borrow the classic transforming sound from Transformers
- Ifrit = truck
- Ramuh = sports car
- Leviathan = speed boat
- Phoenix = airplane
- in their vehicle modes, along with Shiva-cycle, all merge into Bahamutron
Wouldn't that be badass? I think that would be badass.

*sigh* I actually enjoyed that cartoon as a kid. Sometimes my love for cars really runs out of control.karasu said:

Maybe it's not the Shiva we'd think of. Perhaps Alexander has been spreading his seed, so there's a new generation of half-golem hybrid... ice motorcycles.

The motorcycle scene in MGS3 was indeed awesome, but this is SE we're talking about.Dali said:

Because it makes you look cooler!
Seriously though, sounds pretty silly but we'll see how it works out...
I like the idea, but it depends on execution. I thought the motorcycle scenes were some of the better scenes in Advent Children, but they obviously need a little...uh, work. I believe it could be really cool.
It's entireeeeely how they pull it off though. If they make it fit with the world and stuff...maybe the belief system or whatever. It could be very cool or really, really cheesy. I really like the stuff S-E has been doing as of late, so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until we know more about the game.
I just love the Lightning design.

FFVII: AC was just as ridiculous from start to end, with a million different things that are just as silly as this. And the comment I made about the motorbike and Cloud's seven sword transforming bullshit, is one such example. I have more, if you're so inclined. I'm sorry you enjoyed that (my condolences), but that's what this sounds like to me. More "Advent Children-ing" of Final Fantasy, which is basically the worst thing that could happen to the series since that was one of the worst action movies I've ever seen.
Of course, as some has said it's early. Maybe there's something cool deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep down.

Shivacycle....
Gives riding a whole new meaning. If they did that to Shiva, what the hell will they do with chocobos, moogles and cactaurs this time.
(Edit) Odin as a mecha?

That's what I think as well. I originally felt sick when I read it but yeah, depending on the execution it could be okay. Maybe even cool. Who knows.

You might be right - we both agree that Shiva, who can turn in to a motorcycle....

..sorry, I lost it there for a bit - yeah, so we both agree that this sounds like a ****ing ridiculous idea.
No, I don't want to see it, really. I'm super-excited about any info on a new numbered FF, but this... just no, sorry. :lolY2Kevbug11 said:
I'm trying to imagine what it could do with ATB.
It probably isn't the case, but for whatever reason I'm kind of imagining they might do what PDSaga did with positioning. Maybe you could use it to race around your enemies and attack from different positions.
...or maybe it'll just look cool and make the game stupid.
Again, depends on what they do. I really think PDS' system is great, so it'd be cool if they merge some of the positional ideas with ATB. I'm not totally sure how I'd want it to work yet.

I laughed when I read "Shiva becomes a motorbike." before and I lol'd again.
Its hilarious :lol :lol :lol

I think everyone fails to see the potential awesomeness of this. Picture Ixion transforming into an 80's style ax (with surging pulses of electricity going through his holder) and the player being able to rock-out his moves guitar-hero style. If done right this could be a really cool gimi...err... mechanic. If it isn't done right, years after release we will all have fond memories of XIII's cheesiness and love it for its departure from the FF formula. Its win/win.

My best hope for the game is that it just tries to emulate FFX-2 battle system, except more dynamic and fluid (since apparently there is no delay between the attack and the selection of said attack). So, even though it'll probably look retarded, it might still be sorta fun to play despite that. Sure it'll probably be bogged down by random battles or some garbage, but that's another subject.
Of course in true FF fashion (the majority of them anyway), the game will probably try to be really melodramatic about some evil force and the power of the crystal or some shit and I'll be too busy laughing to take anything they say remotely seriously.

I'd love to see this force them to incorporate multiple ways to approach events in the story. For example, a boss in a battle is defeated and starts to run away but you're given the option of dealing with him now or dealing with him later. If you decide to chase after him, you can use these summon vehicles or whatever to chase after him and initiate the battle. A bike battle would ensue and several minor events later into the story would change or something.
Something like that would be neat because it would give the transformations a purpose and allow the player to affect the story a bit.

Why not a helicopter? That would be so sweet.
