Yes those thighs are incredible. It's obviously one of her selling points, because she never wears pants.

We have more information. PAL release will be Winter 2011, along with an evolved battle system. The team plan to top FFXIII in every possible way.

& the Official English site has opened. High quality version of Lightning in her new attire can be found in the screenshots section.

Nightengale · 2011-01-18, 08:02

Higher quality trailer than the one shown before.

Spoiler:

Mr. 'Lightning's Rival' dresses like he's partly tribal or something. Perhaps a Gran Pulse native like Fang/Vanille?

I'm just a little farming away from that, but meh. The designs still tempt me to do it nevertheless. And my honor as one of the freaking idiots that have to 100% every FF game

I think the main problem is that X-2 is so different from the original. It's lighthearted and fluffy and by far not as dramatic. My main reason for not liking it was the jpop. The magical moments were kinda ruined because of that.
I did like the jobsystem a lot, though.

I'm not entirely sure how I should react to the sequel now. I was totally hyped for XIII and while I enjoyed it didn't come close to meet my expectations. I don't want to go through that yet again xD
Because the setup the end of XIII gave is full of potential:

Spoiler for the END of XIII - no lookie if not finished yet :p:

There are so many interesting story fragments and follow ups that would be so fun to explore. Nevermind that they'd be able to improve and fix their mistakes.
But I also kind of doubt it because of that non-sense of "HD graphics are too demanding for modeling towns". You're seriously doing it wrong if you say the new technology is a restriction and not an opportunity

I like when an RPG revolves around characters and plot, but I didn't like the way they built that in XIII. Awful pacing and the structure was just confusing. It's great to start things with a bang and explain later, but it wasn't done very well this time around imo.

But who am I kidding? Whether I look forward to it or only mutter curses, I'm going to buy XIII-2 on day one like always anyway.
I even dare say: Most people here will buy it no matter what comes out of it

For now I will give SE the benefit of the doubt and look forward to it. No hyper joy, though.
.. but damn you 2011, stop it with the big games I all want on release!

Nightengale · 2011-01-18, 08:06

Versus's trailer is up too.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1A0AU1eNSXk

Between Type-0, XIII-2 and Versus, 2011/12 is 2 good years to be a Final Fantasy fan.

Too bad Versus is almost definitely a 2012 release and not 2011...

They could had at least gotten some placeholder voices imo...

That trailer is awesome. Looking at it, I hope it gets released in 2012. Nomura no doubt is doing excellent job. Battle system looks excellent as well. Can't wait to see HD quality trailer and play it in HD in 2012. If someone still doesn't have a PS3, better buy one for this.

I'd like to say I did... but I simply just forgot.

I've just gotten my PSP like 4 days ago anyway, so I've got an uphill mountain of games to buy and play in it.

First Metal Gear Portable Ops, then the world!

damn. just damn. that is definitely a game i'm buying day 1. and i'm the type of guy who never buys any game on launch day. last time i bought a game on launch day was FF8.

zebra · 2011-01-18, 08:35

Is it weird Versus' battles remind me of Crisis Core's?

Sassarai · 2011-01-18, 09:26

Yeah Zeb that's the first thing that came to my mind. CRISIS CORE!

Hmm I wonder if the people that complained/hated ff13 will still buy ff13-2? Isn't it pretty much all the left over content from ff13 that they were going to release as dlc but decided there's enough for a sequel instead?

Von Himmel · 2011-01-18, 10:54

Really ? The first thing that came out in my mind is KH when I look at the trailer

I guess because it's more interactive with its surrounding like KH did; I instantly thought of that. Though for me, somehow it's still retain that Final Fantasy feelings in it for some reasons ;(

Kanon · 2011-01-18, 11:14

Oh lawdy, they're really making a sequel. Lightning looks pretty damn hot in that armor. I enjoyed FFXIII so I'm game but... no more hallways please.

FlareKnight · 2011-01-18, 11:37

Thank you for a FF13 sequel. While I thought X-2 wasn't great or necessary at all, the opposite here. Think there's plenty that was left hanging in the air after the end of the last game and a sequel will be good for tackling all that. Trailer looked pretty good and did manage to make Lightning even more badass

.

The trailer for Versus looks great and an interesting choice on the battle system. A game that's been long in the waiting but still really looking forward to it.

LadyKikyo91 · 2011-01-18, 11:59

The game itself looks pretty awesome. I've heard a lot of complaints about the game particularly about the battle system though.

Vallen Chaos Valiant · 2011-01-18, 12:15

As far as I am concerned, they better put back in what they took out of XIII; towns, free roaming, and sidequests.

Oh, well. At least XIII is going to be dirt cheap when XIII-2 comes out, so I might buy them together.

**Klashikari** · 2011-01-18, 12:19

Dunno if I'm the minority here, but I was by far more intrigued and interested by Versus XIII trailer.
But is it me or... Noctis is voiced by Ono? That range of his voice is particularly unusual

Yeah sounded like Ono to me too... I was actually expecting Miyano or maybe even Fukuyama.

RRW · 2011-01-18, 14:30

on interesting note

new character?

You're not alone. We don't know anything about FFXIII-2 yet, so I can't really get excited about it.

Noctis is voiced by Tatsuhisa Suzuki (Yuji in Bakatest), the singer of the band OLDCODEX. I definitely heard Miyano in the trailer too, but I'm not sure who he's playing.

-Sho- · 2011-01-18, 15:12

Yeah , i'm more interested for Versus too.
Finally a gameplay , looks like Kingdom Hearts. I don't mind that , i like this gameplay

Storyline is interesting too. I kinda feel that we're back to FF8 modern age.

rrw -> Yeah seems like it.
