Hope or Despair?

That trailer looks like crap. Maybe Versus XIII will be cool but square is shooting 0 for ten trizabizillion when it comes to action oriented games.

Hmmm...A very controversial comment with no backup or evidence on why the trailer appears to be in your eyes, 'crap'.

I, also am looking forward to XIII more than I was XII. I think that the trailer looks great considering that I have only seen one of them, I can't wait for it to come out.!.!!

I am kind of sad that it is on a different platform, and I'm not sure about there being a sequal. To me sequals never live up to the one before it game-play wise, but story wise sequals have been great. Talking about X and X-2.

Either way I'm still looking forward to it, I don't think it will be spoil the FF series. I just hope the sequals live up to its prequal.

i decided to rejoin this forum and don't worry i won't be invloved in any arguments.

Well, I am optimistic with the new Final fantasy (13) since, although I disliked 12 alot, goes back to the main development team.

For those who don't know, 12 was written mainly by a different cast (who did vagrant story) to the ones that gave us the originals (especially psx).

So, all in all it should have a solid story and a solid gameplay factor. I haven't looked at many trailers but I did see 1 that looked pretty impressive.

The Ps3 is hugely superior to the ps2 and the FF team will more than likely push the system to the limit meaning as usual 10/10 graphics.

time will tell.

Graphically, it looks nice, but when I watched it myself, I didn't get a Final Fantasy feel off it.

At least I did with early trailers of XII.

By the way, i think this has been said like a thousand times: There are no sequels to FF13 and they are all individual games which are situated in the same universe as FF13.
So don't get it twisted :rolleyes2

Sorry, people just NEED to get this right

hopefully all these other "games" won't detract from the main Final fantasy. And thatnks for that correction Croyles. Was worried that it might be all in same universe etc etc

Alright, I finally got a chance to read through the whole document you sent Yuriev. It does comfirm alot that I have heard as well but the article I quoted does state the correction to the "phone call" incedent.

Though I must say, it really does make you want to read the original script.

Yeah but I have issues with this team. I've never really cared for any of their efforts in the series so XIII doesn't exactly bode well for me I guess. The fact Nomura has been said to say that XIII will have alot in common with FFX especially worries me cause I find FFX to be the weakest entry in the series.

But I'll try to keep an open mind, who knows... Maybe I'll find it to be really good since I'm going in with pretty low expectations.

The trailer just doesn't seem to have any real substance. It was basically a Hollywood violence and explosions galore. As a teaser trailer it's pretty good but it's not the action that brings me to the series. To be honest, XIII seems to be like the FFIX of the Kitase/Nojima/Nomura generation. The game already seems to have some sort of reference to VII, VIII, X, and KH. I don't believe this to be intentional though.

I still feel that Matsuno's team (FFT, Vagrant Story, FFTA, and FFXII) really knew how to embody the series better. The new team is trying to reinvent it; which isn't bad that they are trying I just don't care for the direction it's taking.

Luckily I don't I find FF7 and X to be the 2 best of the series, so for me it is a big giant plus
