Quote from IGN's podcast Beyond! on Heavy Rain:

"we aren't allowed to talk about it yet but...pre-order it."

I gotta go with FFXIII. While im totally looking forward to Heavy Rain, as im a fan other their previous game, Indigo Prophecy, its not enough to stop my JRPG addiction.

Not really even a choice for me. Definitely FF XIII - been waiting for it for over 4 years. I'm gonna be getting Heavy Rain when it gets cheap.

Heavy Rain, easily. FFXIII will be good... but after playing Persona 4 JRPG nirvana has already been reached.

Probably FF13, its been so long since I've actually played a final fantasy game so it will be good to get into another one. Heavy rain does look pretty cool though, and i might pick it up at a later date.

What exactly about the game makes it look like "absolute trash"? If you're not interested in the game that's fine, but I'm just curious as to what makes it "absolute trash". And do yourself a favor and play FFX. Then if you REALLY don't like that game, then give up on FF.

Quite true. P4 is my second favorite game of all time behind only FFX. I'm not sure if FFXIII will be able top either of those, but I know I'm going to enjoy the hell out of the game.

Persona 4....*Wipes tear of epicness* But yeah, Final Fantasy hate is something that almost always sounds silly. It's like people are hating on the newer games of the franchise because it does things....dare I say....BETTER than their precious JRPGs. That being said, Persona 4 is my favorite JRPG. :P

Easily, easily Heavy Rain.

Nothing against FFXIII, I want it too, but Heavy Rain is way above FF for me right now.

I think this is tough for me because both story seem AMAZING with great GRAPHICS and both have decent gameplay (more unique on heavy rain though)

Not either, probably. I don't really care about the gameplay in heavy rain, it sounds kind of limited, and Final Fantasy has been disappointing lately, since FF12.

Heavy Rain. I've been getting more and more hyped for this game as time has gone on. FFXIII has been getting some bad buzz lately with people saying it's more linear than previous FF games and there's hardly any exploration at all. I'm reversing judgment until more reviews come out and I get some player feed back.

Heavy Rain. Ive sort of gone off FF since I learned there are no towns.Big_Bad_Sad
Thats pretty much what killed it for me, too. I was thinking the whole time 'Man, how awesome is the exploration going to be on this game since its on the PS3 and they've spent SOOO much time on it!? I bet there's going to be all kinds of side quests, an enormous cast of characters each with their own special abilities to really make for vastly diverse gameplay abilities, a huge world map with tons of beautiful towns and cities to wander through, and all this awesome stuff!!!!!" Come to find out.... It has none of that. Its just as story driven as Heavy Rain will be. From the reviews I've read FF13 is so linear you can't even turn in some places... Wow. I'll just wait til I get to hear more about it before I decide to buy it. I'm sure it'll be a good game, but a big reason I've been such a huge fan of FF all these years are completely absent from FF13. Sometimes the tried and true are better left alone. Innovation isn't always the way.

I will be getting Heavy Rain unless it's a flop. I just don't have the time or energy to invest in FF these days.

What I meant was, FF12 and the long release time is kind of killing it for me. Plus, the trailors aren't looking especially appealling. (good, but not Final Fantasy good)

Of course, I'll rent it and try it out, that would be foolish not to, I just don't feel as excited for this as some people are.
