FFXIII and vXIII seem to me like this huge behemoths' battle between Kitase/Toriyama team and Hashimoto/Nomura team for the supremacy of making the best Final Fantasy game (or at least the best FNC game :p)

vXIII is the more stylish Chrysler Building to XIII's taller Empire State Building.

But... Hashimoto and Kitase are both producers on both games. :lol

I thought Kitase had just an Executive role for vs and that Hashimoto was the actual Producer.

If that's not the case, then make it Toriyama vs Nomura, and it will be more personal that way.

WTF? Yuna has two different eye colors?

I've finished FFX three times and I did't even notice.

Want to like me less?

I would encourage SE to create a Vana'diel single player game so every mmo-hater can actually experience how good the stories from FFXI and all the exapansions are.

Let Ivalice die with what dignity it has left after FFTA, FFTA2, and Revenant Wings, but as someone who hasn't played FFXI I'd be mildly interested in this.

Why do you think the top one is in-game? Why would we be controlling lightning in that shot?
They are both cutscenes.

EDIT: They are different character models though, yes. But still the top one is a cutscene as well. I guess it is proof of concept.
Click to expand...

An example: In the case of Kingdom Hearts II they had two types of cut-scenes: "Cinematic" ones with high-quality models, and "low-budget" ones with mid-quality models and text boxes instead of voice*. You could be seeing something similiar in FFXIII. :P In any case we don't really know if the top picture is a cut-scene.


*KHII actually had a third, even lower-detailed character model for gameplay stuff.

I'm really, really excited about Jun Akiyama working on Versus too. The cutscenes he directed in VS, KH1 and FFXII were fucking amazing. The way the scenes are composed, and the way characters interact, it's totally in a class of it's own. In comparison, KH2 felt like it was just trying too hard to be cool.

Eh I dunno, the cut-scenes in VS were really well done for its time, but I found the ones in FFXII quite pedestrian.

Oh thanks, that's what I was getting tripped up on. Makes sense.

I want a true FF that actually lets you play as more than 5 humans and one bunny girl

Bring on some fucking Bangaas and Nu Mous!

Square-Enix needs to surrender and bring Matsuno back or let Ivalice die in obscurity.

FFXI gives you 5 different races, including cat girls
which 95% of them are dudes
, but Ivalice and Vana'diel are just as awesome! ;o

I mean a traditional FF. Not that godforsaken grindfest. Nice environments though
 
Wait, CERO gave Dissidia a C? I never noticed.

I would understand (and even expected) a B, but what kind of stuff is in the game to deserve that?

So I saw a scan in Jump about XIII, and it says bandanna dude's name is Snow.

Is it real?

Lightning, sera (which means evening was it?), snow... the bolonde is probably called rainy day.

It's true.

Is he going to fight with a fucking fairy wing backpack too? god damn Square.

Thanks.

Not what I was expecting when they said it was weather-related...at least we're finally getting names.
 
Autumn Thread said:
Full names of the Versus characters:

Noctis Lucius Ceram
Stella Nox Fulure

or something..
not 100% on the names, my guess.
Click to expand...
Does Stella have some sort of Latin derivation?
It seems so out of place.
 
Autumn Thread said:
Star

English culture destroys all which is beautiful.


EDIT:

So Noctis is 'of the night/by night', but Nox is actually the word for night,
so her name is 'Star Night' and his is 'By Night Shinning'.
Crazy.
 
I have questions...

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children Complete... What is this? Are they adding more footage to the movie? What footage specifically?

Final Fantasy Chronicles: Echoes of Time: There is a WiFi logo in the picture, is this game going to have online 4 player co-op? Please say yes, I'll buy it if it does.
 
full scans out...'snow' looks hilarious

Stella's design is pretty nice

Also, agito is looking awesome. My hype for that is almost up there with the other two

1. Yes, too much to name but the fight with Sephiroth is extended greatly. And from the looks of the scans, they will reveal new scenes where it's more about the children and their disease. As you can see there is a new female there as well.

2. Yes, even wii players can play with ds players online.

Sweet hopefully it will have more of a story this time than just fan service after awesome fan service.

Excellent.
 
I don't know if these are from TGS (or even new), but Gamekyo has a trailer for Chocobo Tales 2 and Chocobo's Dungeon DS up, and they're awesome even if old :D

I love the art direction of CT2, it looks incredible. And I pray to God Chocobo Dungeon DS makes it into English (or the Wii one makes it to PAL :-\). Anyway, sorry if old.
 
The battle screenshot of Agito is interesting.
There are three people in the party in the shot, but we've been told there will be four, so I guess it's just early in the game or something. It has HP and MP and a bar of some sort. Interestingly there are four command options, each attached to a face button. I'm really interested to see how this plays now. Whether you select your options before battle, or it's fixed like Pokemon or something. Or they're sub-menu titles.

It's annoying that after a quite a long wait, we get a leaked trailer from TGS, a few days later a new screenshot showing UI has completely changed.

That was the TGS07 cellphone trailer.
 
hmmm,I can't seem to digest the fact that Mr 33 name is snow. I always associate snow for a female name.

And VsXIII full facial scan of Noctis and Stella is awesome. And the ballroom scene really gives a FFVIII vibe.
 
Yeah, not only Snow, but I got to say I'm not really feeling the weather/nature related names. It's ok for one character or something, but naming so many of them like that feels forced. It sounds like something you do in sixth grade when you get random foreign words and name the characters you create with them. :/
