Actually, Penelo is the ONLY option

Over Ashe? Really? I mean, not counting the superiority that is Balthier... Penelo over Ashe? Well... to each their own I guess.

Uh... IV Compilation. Awesome, don't gotta waste Wiipoints now. Thanks Square.

Thanks.

Penelo is really the only character I remember/played as.  I... didn't really like any of the characters or the story, but the game was fun regardless ^^;

Also, 3rd Birthday has shipped and I will get it as early as tomorrow!

[Setsuna F. Seiei]

Revealed at the Square Enix 1st Production Department Premiere event today.



Quote from a friend who quoted someone else.

18:57 -- The FFXIII-2 trailer showed Lightning in armor. She was engaged in a sword fight with a purple haired man.

18:55 -- Toriyama leaves the stage and Kitase takes over.

18:55 -- They were only able to show a short trailer at the event, but development is progressing well, says Toriyama. They are working so that the game serves as the answer to the opinions they received about FFXIII.

18:54 -- It will be released in 2011.

18:53 -- The game is being developed simultaneously on PS3 and Xbox 3560.

18:53 -- Toriyama says that fans have been asking for a sequel. The FFXIII development staff also wanted to show players another dramatic story and game with Lightning.

18:52 -- Here's a pic of the logo, courtesy of 4gamer: clickly click!

18:51 -- Toriyama takes the stage.

18:50 -- Motomu Toriyama is directing again.

18:50 -- The game is coming to PS3 and Xbox 360.

18:50 -- It's Final Fantasy XIII-2!

Yeah this news jus came out actually, and adriasang is dead because of it x3

[The Drunken Dishwasher]

More Lightning is ALWAYS a good thing~

I'll leave this thread open while the conference is on, then merge it with the SE thread.

Though I didn't play XIII myself and only ever heard people [sonic slicer] about it, I do worry that listening to the fans will have the usual consequences.

[The Drunken Dishwasher]

OK, just saw the VersusXIII trailer from the stream ok...

TONS of show on the battle system, it's definitely an Action/RPG more so close to KH (the HUD looks practically the same) BUT.



You can ride Tanks and Bipedal machinery.

There's also this new hot armored chick later in the trailer.  There's also a glimpse of what seems to be an overworld section in a lush country view.  We'll find out more in time.

Oh and they'll reshow these trailers in better quality at the 27th (except the XIII-2 teaser, which will be shown again at the 20th) of this month.

Nonetheless, aside from KH: Dream Drop Distance (lmao), Versus XIII still holds the highest interest in me.

Actually the trailer for KH DDD (or KH 3Ds LMAO) is also pretty interesting.  There is one good set of news for that title, you can swap between Riku and Sora (or so it has been claimed).

What else...

Prishe from FFXI is confirmed for Duodecim.
And apparently having a file for the demo of Duodecim (Prologue it's called) will let the person have Aerith as an assist for the final ver. of Duodecim.

Yep, XIII-2 will now take place entirely inside towns.

Remember when FFX-2 came out? Yeeah. Only I felt that was a diffrent story entirely, since I never played the "first" FFX game (but seen rants about it). Yeeeahhh.. Here we go again.

>Square claims to be listening to the fans
>Make a sequel no one wants instead of FF6 or FF7 remakes or even something with the Chrono series.

Yeah, I call bullshit.

Versus 13 looks very interesting. However, I have no hopes at all for 13-2 and question why the hell it even exists. They're wasting resources.

And for you Dissidia 2 people, here's an early present for everyone. Found within the playable character area of Prologus' data:



For the slow: Gilgamesh (FF5) and Prishe (FF11) join the fray.

So, with that we now have eight new (playable) characters confirmed:

Cain, Gilgamesh, (???), Tifa, Laguna, (???), Yuna, Prishe, Vaan, and Lightning.

Assuming Nomura's statement that only SNES and beyond games are getting new reps is true, that leaves four new characters to put in. FF6 and FF9 have yet to get new reps announced, leaving two left to be decided between FF11, 12, and 13. Expect 13 to at least get one of those.

[OKeijiDragon]

FFXII-2? I didn't see this coming.

They're wasting resources.

Actually, I wonder if they'll use any of the cut content from the original FFXII. IIRC, they removed enough content to make a whole game out of it.

[CephiYumi]

Lightning and Kain are pretty fun I guess, you're kinda stuck with pre-set moves so they don't have a lot yet.  Kains jump hp attack is pretty fun to slam into people with though ^^;

I wasn't there actually, what did happen?

I originally played to focus on Lightning.

But now that Gilgamesh is in... why should I even bother with other characters?

[nobody]

Oh come on! Gilgamesh is just an overrated [Top Spin].

Posted on: January 19, 2011, 09:23:51 AMSo I played it more and they had more moves in hard mode.  Older characters have lots of crazy new moves too, and add in the assist characters it can get pretty chaotic o.o

[Acid]

Is there a mode where you can get new equipment and components and such? Like in Dissidia1?
