Haven't tried 12 (or 11/Online).

Only thing I know about 13 is Aerial Combat isn't it?...

Definately looking forward to this one. I thought FF12 was brilliant so this one has got a lot to live up to.

Unfortunately it comes out 4 days after Battlefield BC 2!

Trailer looks pretty good - thanks for the heads up.

I see it's out next month. Will definately keep an eye on it once released.

From the trailers I've seen - expect plenty of drama

Definatly looking forward to this, glad they seen sense and realised the huge market available by not limiting it to the PS3.

I always think that Final Fantasy games aren't that good until I actually buy them.

The first 2-3 hours are normally awful. But after that I can never put them down. Lost countless hours/days of my life to 7/8/9/10 and 12. Always wanting at least 3 of the best weapons and summons etc. Have complete saves for 7/9 and 12 nerd

Yep,

I bought a PS2 just to play FFXII, and then sold it again straight afterwards, it's going to be amazing, 4 DVDs apparently.

It is upsetting it comes out the same time as BFBC2, but I suppose one is multiplayer and one is singleplayer, just to cover all aspects of your time.

It's been 3 years since the last one (almost to the day, February 23, 2007), amazing times ahead.

God that zodiac spear thing in 12. I got one the proper way.

Then 1 the fluke way.

In which you had to go find a chest in those bat caves things.

There was a 1/40 chance it was there.

Then a 1/100 chance it wouldn't be empty.

then a 1/100 chance of that something not being a potion or whatever - but to actually be a Zodiac Spear.

God I spent weeks, every sunday with a hangover when I couldn't be bothered to do anything else, just going to that chest. AAAAAAAARRRRRRGHHHHH

Shall be getting this

Anyone else got a 360 and PS3?

One thing I noticed was the 360 vid the battle scenes seemed really jagged like there was no antialiasing, however the PS3 version was really smooth.

this is the problem with the FF games. i played 7, and fiddled with 8 a bit, and sure, i've spent days playing COD and other such, but i know if i get FF13, it will consume my life...



maybe...

From Wikipedia (as pointed out by my PS3 owning mate)....

"In an interview in Famitsu, Square Enix says the audio and video in Final Fantasy XIII will be compressed in multiple DVDs in the 360 version while the PS3 version will be uncompressed and be on one Blu-ray Disc"

It doesn't have to. The only one I have really got into is 7. I think I played 12 for about 40 hours (and finished it)

Intriguing, I have both, I was surprised to find out FF13 was coming out on both platforms.

Based on your comment and the one re: bluray below I'm definitely going to be getting it on the PS3 - it seems proper as well, considering the PS was the platform that FFVII (the one that took it to the next level) was on.

ive never played a FF game before but ive got this preordered. the coming few months is going to be costly due to the releases coming soon. heavy rain, bf-bc2, FFXIII, avp and a few others i think.
