Famitsu has released upgraded versions of the images that have been shown on the internet regarding Alexander, Hope, and Chocobos.
Additionally, one could unlock a special item for FFXIII on XBox Live by retweeting a message. This was an announcement yesterday, but some of us were busy playing Modern Warfare 2.
In case you missed the big giant announcement yesterday, there is now a YouTube video with the FFXIII announcement. I for one, am not looking forward to the music. Not only is Uematsu not involved, but Leona Lewis is. Someone, please tell me why I didn't watch The Graduate play at Ottobar this past Tuesday. This is musical catastrophe. This is like fighting that FFX boss in the arena. Problem is, I am not an overpowered FFX character.
