Well, after seeing several teasers of FF13, I'm pretty much sold on it but pretty mad that the ONLY Final Fantasy game I've played was FFVII. How much of the story line am I missing? How many character's died/betrayed who. Is there a summary of this some where leading to Final Fantasy 13? Do the stories even co-exist within one another?

Each story is different with few exceptions. You don't have to have played any previous FF for any other FF to make sense.

Every time I think every gamer knows that each main Final Fantasy has a different story, along comes a new thread! D:

No main installment in the FF series is connected. All the games stories and worlds are selfcontained.

This pretty much sums it up. You'll be just fine playing FFXIII ;)

Exceptions being games are are clearly prequels or sequels to the main series game: Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII and Dirge of Cerberus: Final Fantasy VII take place in the same universe as FFVII, same with FFX-2 being the direct sequel to FFX. They make it pretty clear when the games are related.

Me neither!! Just read the GI hands on, and I think Im gonna freaking love this game. It said some classic FF components have been reworked, but it sounds like the parts of FF that always frustrated me anyway (like backtracking and the need to explore towns which can be freaking boring). Also, the combat sounds great and the game looks fantastic. Whoot!!

you should be fine, each game has self contained story.
