I think most of us have watched the FFXIII International Trailer by now, and heard the new theme song for the game, "My Hands" by Leona Lewis. I just wanted to hear everyones opinion about it and the new trailer. I have Pre-ordered the game as of today now! Cant wait!!

I dont mind the voices casted for the characters, they did a good job with that, and lip syncing the english to the voices, not too bad, not too bad (Lip syncing troubles from FFX, anyone remember? :P) Graphics look amazing and so does the gameplay, game looks like it will be pretty epic story.

Whats your opinion on the Leona Lewis song, discuss. I..think its okay, its not good, but not bad either, could be worse.

Trailer is here for people who havent seen it.

Dont really like it, guess i just have to deal with it... I dont know why they can't just put a language option to keep the japanese speech/song, a lot of ppl actually like it better

I would prefer Japanese intro song but as it stands it's really not that bad. It could had been worse.

It won't impact my purchase of the game.

It's okay, but I really don't care in the end. I wish they could've come up with something better though. Something along the lines of "1000 Words" from FFX-2. Now, we can argue all day about the merits of that game, but there's no doubting how awesome that song was.

I think the song is pretty good. Nothing fantastic, but it added a nice mood to the trailer. Didn't really fit with some of the action stuff towards the end though.

That trailer has almost convinced me to cancel my Gran Turismo 5 pre-order and go for this game instead. The graphics just look stupendous. And it actually has a release date, which is a HUGE plus :D

I really liked the theme song and it really fits the mood of the trailer quite well. What really caught my attention was the great lip syncing of the characters when they spoke. Great job Square Enix!

I actually really like the song. I like Leona Lewis so I have no problems with the song being in the game. I'm not sure how well it actually fits the game but its a good song regardless. That being said, I would have preferred if the Japanese singer had been able to do an English version of her song, much like Utada Hikaru did with Simple and Clean and Sanctuary from Kingdom Hearts. I'm not sure if that would have been possible, but I do think the Japanese song fits the mood perfectly so if it could have been done I would have rather had that.

It definitely wasn't what I expected it to be, but I still received immense enjoyment from playing it. It was like dating Halle Berry, then marrying Mariah Carey. Definitely not the same, but just as good.

I liked the english trailer that they showed at TGS with that Japanese theme song better it made the cut scenes seem more dramatic

X-2 Optional bosses and dungeon were surprisingly hard. Hardest optional bosses in a final fantasy game i reckon.
