    I'm getting a hard-on just thinking about it.
    Leave some shards under the belly
    Lay some grease inside my hand
    It's a sentimental jury
    And the makings of a good plan

    When Grand Theft Auto San Andreas came out, everyone made a big deal when they found out the main character was going to be black. Then, when the game actually got released, nobody cared anymore, they just wanted to know how to do the missions. It will be the same with FFXIII, I think society is advanced enough to embrace a strong female lead without too much upset.

    I hope so anyway.

    We need a female main. Enough spoken.

    Dragon Mage needs to lighten up. If I had 1 penny for every time I've seen someone complain about a comment like that, I'd have one penny. And I just got one.

    This is a summary of the games (so far revealed) plot.

    I WILL NOT let someone make a sexist remark and get away with it unscathed. They insult women, they insult me. So excuse me if I actually stand up for myself.

    I was talking about this with a certain someone a few days ago, and seriously, I've hated a lot of female Final Fantasy characters. I mean like. They made me cringe. I don't really know why that is. I don't get so easily annoyed with male characters as I do with female ones.

    Anyway, I'm really wary of a female lead.

    All this fighting over a female lead? My only comments...

    For those against: Get over it! It's going to happen eventually in the series so be prepared and stop whining...

    To those who are for it: Don't get your hopes up. Don't be playing this game in hopes that "Lightning" or whoever is the actual lead is going to be this definitive archtype of feminine empowerment. She'll probably end up breaking down and crying several times or whine about some worthless guy that the the developers go out of their way to make him a bigger bad ass than her. So don't get your hopes up.

    You just defined what it takes to be a FF male as well.

    That formula has helped Tetsuya Nomura and Yoshinare(sp?) Kitase make "successful" FF's for years
