I called J&L about one hour ago, they told me to call back this afternoon, Initial D (right beside J&L) usually doesn't get games early, not sure with VGNY.

Just completed Chapter 1.
To start, I have no idea what happened, but I came within an inch of dying on the first encounter.
:lol
But apart from that disaster, I'm really enjoying it. I have to agree that the start of the game does seem a little slow though - I'm hoping the battle system opens up some more soon.

I have a schedule full of meetings and conference calls to get me through work. Then its just getting from work until midnight that will be the problem. I'm going to play the hell out of Mass Effect 2 to pass the time.
AND, my wife just told me on my day off tomorrow that I took just for FF13 that the plumber will be by at 9am....how the hell if I'm supposed to stay up late if Mr. Plumber is coming by so early...
crap

My collectors edition guide was just dispatched by Amazon UK.
Will probably be here on Wednesday.

Ok, after all the hate the game got in before I must say, I played for an hour and I am enjoying it quite a bit. I love the new ATB and I was always a sucker for streamlined jrpgs. The combat is quite a lot faster than I expected it to be which is goooood. Datalog is great, I read every new entry as soon as they pop up.
<3 Lighting, but again I just love my tsundere :lol.
I am playing the 360 version and seriously I can understand people saying the PS3 version is the better one, nontheless even the 360 version looks and plays great.

It's also apparently set out differently, so as to avoid needless spoilers.

Amazon lied to me. The collectors edition is only like £1 more, so I thought why not.
It has exclusive artwork too.
Nerdy request for - in Gaf though so it's ok!
I'm looking for real pictures of either/both of the official guides in the UK. I want one of them but I'm also one of those OCD freaks that wants the spines to match the previous ones. The paperback guide looks like it is the same format as the previous ones but it's black rather than white according to the stock pictures on Amazon etc.
The hardcover guide has a different format but it's in white judging by pics of the American one.
HELP UK GAF!

Right, I'm pretty sure that the characters in FFX and FFXII had proper hands, so why does this game have square hands in 2010 FFS?? The translation sucks, at times it's totally nonsensical... Sqenix really need to get their shit sorted out for the next FF

It's not the translation, its the original Japanese writing.

Can anyone who finished the game tell me if there is a lot of gameplay
. I think I'm close to there, currently in
and I would love it to be as detailed location-wise as

on Pulse?

A lot of the time you're progression doesn't allow you to backtrack to previous enemies (the environment changes, such as something falling down so your characters can't go back) but in the areas where enemies do respawn generally you just need to go to the next screen or far enough away from that spot before they return. Some places you can go up and down a lift and enemies from both screens have fully respawned, some good spots for raking in the CP early on. So it's proximity basedFuu said:

For those who have finished: I have just entered
@ 31 hours into the game. How long before the end?
I was thinking of starting a second playthrough on the X360 once I'm done with the PS3 version, but it's starting to take it's toll. 31 hours over 5 days, including a weekend, is still....long.

While cheesy, the Japanese dialog uses conventions that are normal to Japanese stories. From the sounds of it, the localization is at fault.

If you try to follow the natural flow of missions till the end of the game (only doing about a third of them), expect to spend at least another 20 hours. I can't speak as to how difficult it would be to not do more missions though.
