It's in Japanese and not really gushing with information, but it is open and you can hear some music, presumably from the game. There's character bios, but again it's all Japanese. I like the music, though. Hopefully they'll start putting more stuff on it soon.

The Layout is nice, and the music track that is playing is gorgeous. First musical piece I've heard from the game I like actually. :)

Hopefully it will be filled with more info once the demo is released.

I had Jilkon translate them for me; there's now a Characters (http://www.eyesonff.com/ff13/characters.php) page up on the front site, though it doesn't offer much detail.

Oh, cool!

I'm glad that Lightning is just a code name for her. Trying to fathom why they would give her honest birth name as Lightning just bothered me a lot.

Pretty interesting stuff.

Whoa...these are some awesome game tracks right hurr.


EDIT:

No, seriously! Every single thing that I've seen of this game so far is SUPER PRETTY! The locations, the characters, the music! The battle system looks mega fun, so even if the story is crap I think I'll like this game if it works the way I'm picturing it xD

Then Nomura's plan has succeeded. :monster:

Though I'm a bit disappointed at the lack of any characters revealed. It's just the same 3 they have been showing us forever. Well at least we get some better pics of them this time. Snow and Vanille I actually like their designs (leading me to believe they weren't done by Nomura because they don't look like a plagiarized version of his previous works) Lightning I still think looks ugly.

The one song I heard on the site was really well done too. Something I honestly enjoyed listening too, something on a level comparable to Uematsu's work I think, which I didn't think any one at SE had in them these days to be honest.

I'm starting to have high hopes for the OST of this game!

Snow is so awesome. I like their designs, except for Lightning. She just looks like a mix of Ashe and Cloud. Although the Cloud part is intentional, I still think it looks bad.

I am actually in love with this game already. Just because of the music. Jesus final fantasy, why do you gotta do this to me?

Figured out how to do the scrolly thing: ah, nomura, you've completely underwhelmed me again! http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifty costumes go! The only one I'm vaguely impressed with is this ginger girl's costume. Why does the guy have a tartan blanket hanging out from under his coat? Why?

The more I see the photos, the more I think of FFX. Which I do like. :jess:

Really? It reminds me more of LOST PLANET than FFX, but I can see where you're coming from!

I simply adore the music. I find myself opening the site and hust having it play while I do other things :D

Ya, that's for Europe.

The NA version is --> FINAL FANTASY XIII | SQUARE ENIX (http://na.square-enix.com/ff13/)

I'm guessing that after the timer reached triple zeros, we get to see more information about the game.

Amusingly, the EU one is a few seconds ahead of the NA one.
