OMG
cant believe
i think that we will live a true story this time + epic battle system

[icygate777]

WOW! THIS TRAILER IS ABSOLUTLEY BEAUTIFUL!

*cough* Caps Lock

Excelent find Garland.

I still find Snow X Serah kindof odd considering the fact that he's huge and she's tiny.
The Battle system is epic, not as slow as in some of the last videos.
Is that supposed to be Iffrit with the black guy who's name escapes me?
And there's no mistaking it Lightning and Ixion AND with Odin, means that summons aren't set to specific Chars.
Shirtless wounded Snow who talks about being Human or something, looks like something close to the end of the game to me.
And a mysterious new black haired girl joining the cast?
This game gets more epic by the minute.

Can't wait for he English trailer!

[Garland]

As you can see IcyGate, "Drive Mode" is the new Limit Break system for summoning. Ifrit turns into a car, Shiva turns into a motor cycle and Odin turns into a horse. So unfortunately that is not Ixion, merely Odin in Drive mode.

[Bub]

Nooooo! I thought it was Ixion.... Damn.

That shouldn't be a problem. She's 16/17, so I guess its a little better than 14/15.

Ahhh, the return of Ixion would've been pretty epic. I didn't know that Odin turns into a horse.

I expect that kid to have Bahamut(if he's in the game), it'd be pretty cool considering that Bahamut was a kid in FFX.

lol true, she still looks 15/16 to me though. Snow = The most badass pedophile EVAR.

Ixion was one of those "Ramuh" substitutes that never caught on. However, real fans can spot him In XII as random enemies.
I think Odin turns into a horse (Being Sleipnnir, Odin's actual mount) where lightning assumes the role as the "new Odin".
Alot of people comment that Odin does not have his gungnir in drive mode, but Lightning is shown to combine those two glaves into a pole arm of sorts.

I don't know what people are crying about, I know girls years ahead of my age that look younger than Serah.
This game surprisingly has less of that Anime style convention everyone is claiming Final Fantasy to inherit.
The Main character, and might I add the only one with "The Sword" (Final Fantasy's Phallic symbol of main characterness) is a woman, and she's built in a way to appear non helpless or over endowed, while also appearing non Dyke like( I'm looking at you Paine) I mean, this isn't a new concept for Square, but Terra seemed much more... "Vulnerable", then Lightning does.
Also, the only boy that looks like A girl is the kid, go figure. The rest of the male cast all have facial hair, and one guy is black!
I seriously am hoping to have Sazh Katzroy on my main party, partly because besides Lightning, there isn't many cool looking Playable characters in this game.

Afro ftw

and lmao at the Paine comment


Now all we need is new Versus and possibly Agito footage. I think we can be expecting it soon.

[Chaotic Lionheart]

*raises hand* Sorry but thats not Ifrit it is a new summon Surt who is a knight of burning and firey goodness i saw Sazh son he sports an afro of epicness like his papa on a side note its a bout damn time black ppl make a break through in rpgs other than barret who look like he just got out of the nba in AC with his cornrows and see through shirt and......wait that the only black guy i can think of in ff wait reddas but he had white side burns (SERIOUSLY WTF SE what black dude has effin white side burn unless he's old my advice SE get black friends) and then died

[icygate777]

lol good luck finding black people in Japan.

and I didn't think it looked much like Iffrit, Surt is cool too though. Can't wait for this game either way.

[Garland]

Barrett was so anatomically incorrect, and everyone knows he's a Mr. T. ripoff from the A-team. Sazh seems pretty cool though, I mean look at him, he DANCES to the battle music! No one else breaks the fourth barrier like he does in the game!

Also, Subtitled trailer has arrived.

[icygate777]

Yeah I've gotta admit that Sazh is a pretty cool char.

Thanks for the trailer! It's good to see what they're talking about, even though it only confused me. But I guess that's what they're aiming for, to get us to be confused and buy the game to try to figure it out.

[Garland]

Hey guys, this time the third version is up, with the official English dub!

Final Fantasy XIII Video Game, TGS 09: Official US Trailer | Game Trailers & Videos | GameTrailers.com

We can learn alot about the game now. Scrolling through the dialogue menu play, it seems there are quite a few: first, alot of the terms have been changed. Optima change has been replaced by Paradigm shift (which is a word that i'm studying in college lol), "Drive Mode" in the Japanese version has been replaced by "Gestahlt" mode (another word I learned last week in college, it's german for Perfect design, makes no sense lol.) We now get to read more of the attacks and monster names,
Also, apparently people can live chat while playing XIII, on the lower left screen it shows what seems to be an obvious online chat talking about convoluted things like how Carbuncle is very cute.
The dialogue in the script has been shifted around some, and the voice acting is very different from the Japanese version. Snow sounds pretty bad. Also there's an Aussie in there. Example of Odd dialogue change.
Sazh: "You think you DIE, and that's that? you think you DIE and everything will be sugar and RAINBOWS!!!"

Ahem, yes, comments?

[Bub]

The English trailer is so much better. I'm regretting having a 360 instead of a PS3 now.

[MagitekElite]

Snow is a child rapist! Kissing a 16 year old girl when he's 22/23! What a freak-o!
What does he expect her to do on their honeymoon? He's a pervert! PERVERT!

[Chaotic Lionheart]

Ah wow nice trailer looking like a excellent purchase on my part i wonder what shall Versus be like
