People are drooling too much about FF XIII already. Just like People where drooling over PS2 already when IX came out. ^^".Quote:

Ive been looking foward to it since I seen this in a computer game mag 2 years ago:

And under that was "Final Fantasy 12 perhaps?" I was like SQUEE!!!!!! So Im very much looking forward to it, even though its taking a good while to get to UK shores.
I'm not really looking forward to FFXII as much either. I do want to play it, and it looks like it'll be fun, but ... I still feel rather 'meh' about it. I think the problem is that Square took so long developing it, and didn't do such a great job promoting it.
Anyway, I do look forward to playing it. Just ... not extremely excited.
i thought i was alone
i feel like it's nothing special someone plz show me something thats wow soo i know my ffsense isnt broken
I wasn't really looking that much forward to play FFXII, but now I think it's getting a bit more interesting to me, especially when the English trailer seemed pretty good. However, I'm still more excited about FFVII AC, FFIII DS and KH2, which still haven't been released here.
Have you seem the trailers? Theyre pretty awesome.Quote:

Well, when I watched the video, I thought the characters are quite crappy. Having played the game, I'm just sure I was right.
Final Fantasy is hardly a series considering all the team mixes they have working on each title...and this one is almost entirely separate from the last four. Don't buy a game just for it's title, if it does not appeal to you then don't get it... If you think the battle system , story, and characters won't rub your special places in the right way then rent it and make sure first...nothing wrong with that.
This kind of expectation will probably only lead to a letdown no matter what game it is though...
i wont buy it if i dont like it but u wanted to see the great points
after the seeing the trailer i think itll be as good and possibly even better than some other FFs. i think that some people are just doubting it too much before its even come out.
I don't want to judge a game before it's even out (like alot of people are prone to doing) though I doubt I'll be majorly dissapointed. (I'm not a harshe critic. I can hardly understand some of the things people complain about.) I've seen videos of it, and the battle system looks interesting. It'll be worth it to play it once.
How can you not want this game? It has classic Final Fantasy written all over it with a new battle system, a great change of pace after FFX.
How can it be a classic Final Fantasy if it has a new battle system?
It still has ATB and a wait mode, where the game freezes. Its still an FF.
I didnt say it wasnt an FF.
And since when was a classic FF only classic because of it's battle system? FFXII, just like FFIX, feels very classic because of the type of setting and type of fantasy, also because of some plot and world elements.Quote:

And since when wasnt it? IMO it was a classic because of its turn based battle system.Quote:

If they are classic just because they are turn-based, then I guess the only classic FFs for you are FFI, FFII, FFIII and FFX?Quote:

It was with FFVII that they drastically changed the setting-style of the FF series, making them more JP-anime like, with mode modern and sci-fi elements, and less European medieval elements. FFVIII and FFX followed that setting, while FFIX and FFXII went back to the classics, by using a very similar setting of the classic FFs and throwing countless references and many gameplay elements that stopped being used after the classics.
FFXII is both a classic FF (setting) and a FF that tries to be different (huge improvements in gameplay) in spirit. It is much more, and feels much more like a classic FF than FFVII, FFVIII and FFX, yet it tries to innovate the series as well.
FFXII's enormous Star Wars airships flying everywhere scream classic at me.
What is exactly your point?Quote:

Plus moogles have bunny ears and women have bunny ears and bunny ears can only help a game.
Oops I broke my no point rule. I'm never going to be banned at this rate.
Ok...i know im a noob and ive been coming to the site for a while, but this forum thread lead me to register. I personally am pumped for it, but im still very tennative. It seems a little like Crystal Chronicles, but better graffics and way better story line...i will buy w/o renting but ill still be uneasy about spending the $50-60
What? All the FFs on the PS1 and PS2 are turn based. I dont see FFI, FFII, FFIII and FFX as classics personally cause Ive barely played them. I see 7, 8 and 9 as classics compared to X.Quote:

Those were great games. But it's probably pointless for me to argue whether or not the new games are going 'back to classics' because someone's gonna disagree with me on what a classic is.Quote:

Because the new battle system is awesome and very fun and innovative, imo. :DQuote:

Ok, no need for an attitude. I misunderstood him. Chill.Quote:

Hey no problem. I just place the FFs into a turn based RPG category, didnt even think about time based ones.
I was really really looking forward to XII, but as soon as I saw the trailer for XIII I totally forgot about XII. For sure, XII is going to be an awesome buy in October, but Square killed XII suspense with XIII.
