RPGFan News - New FFXIII Character Info Released

Quote:

Square Enix has revealed three new characters set to appear in its highly anticipated PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 title Final Fantasy XIII . Gadot, Maqui and Lebreau are members of Nora, the Snow-led resistance movement fighting the Cocoon's theocratic government. Gadot and Lebreau are childhood friends of Snow. Maqui is a young man who joined Nora because he admires Snow. He is anything but good at fighting.

In other Final Fantasy XIII -related news, producer Yoshinori Kitase has confirmed Bahamut's appearance in the game in a message on the official website.

While the timing of the game's release could be impacted by the recently announced delay of Dragon Quest IX 's release, a 2009 release of Final Fantasy XIII in Japan is still a possibility.

And here reveals some pics of them

It describes one on the characters as 'He is anything but good at fighting.' Is he going to be another useless in cut-sceens but in battle fights like everyone else? God, I hate him already and by rights I don't even have enough information to.

This game is looking better by the minute. I can tell Maqui is going to be an annoying character already though. :D

Gadot looks like Wakka after seven years of coke addiction and a freshly flowering steroid abuse. :)

Lebreau is the only one that looks promising of the bunch, I hope to god they are like AVALANCHE's or Timer Owls in that we only have to deal with them for a bit of the story. I'd hate for that to be the rest of the party.

Gadot looks like he might be alot like a mix between Zell and Wakka. Maqui is probably going to be out machinist and maybe our strategist.

Haha, I was looking for the right way to describe him, but you pretty much nailed it. :D

Chick does NOT look like she should be holding a gun.

By the look of them, their guns seem the same, so they can't honestly be members of the main party. Lebreau cannot count as the 3rd female character important to the story if we are, in fact, limited to 3 and not 2.///... Wait... Who was the second? I've only heard of Lightning? I'm confused.

Names Romanized

Let's pray they pronounce 'Marquis' correctly this time.

Not to be contrary but it seemed that the earlier scans had provided the official English names, unless they were photoshop-ed addition.

Also, the Japanese would pronounce the name "Maah-keeee", potentially it could be transliterated into "Marquis" but if they were to keep close to the original Japanese pronouciation, it'd be "Mar-kee/key". To be pronounced "Mar-kist", if that was the intent, the name would have had been spelt different in katakana. :/ Then again, wasn't Tidus in the original transliteration "Tida"? lol

Tidus gives it more of a Roman edge. Tida sounds like a girl's name. Tidus is just slightly better.
