As a recent FF hater...

Final Fantasy XIII is looking somewhat intresting. Now some of you might know that pretty much FFVII, I have abhored the FF series (with the exclusion of FFTA, I don't know why, but the game was highly amusing, and the sequal looks awesome as well).

Along with SE churing out the garbage that was KH series (remeber these are my opinions, so hold back on the rabid fanboysim ya KH pansies) my opinion of SE wasn't the highest lately, especially because companies were churing out better RPG's (both Westen and Eastern) I had pretty much given up on SE along with it's rehashes.

But this game is bringing back the little spark of intrest I had when playing the old school FF's, it's intresting, innovative and looks gorgeus (I know, I know FFXII tried to be innovative, but in my mind, it failed. HARD)

Any other disollusioned FF fans starting to intrested in this latest series?

It's hard for any game to live up to the expectations of every fan of the series.zeus_gb

It's true, but dammit, it looks like FFXIII will come damn close...

Looking at how things have been going with them recently, I seriously doubt anything Square makes now will ever come close to FF VI, VII, VIII, X.

I really hope I am wrong though.

Lost Odyssey > FFXIIIc_smithii

You might be the next person I quote in my sig then. 8)

Lost Odyssey > FFXIIIc_smithii

someone please make a sticky thread with all the people who says things like this so that When Lost Odessy get 7.5 and final fantasy XIII gets 9.5 these people wont come up and say "so? whats the big deal!? we all knew FF was gonna be better! no one ever hyped LO as the FF killer!"

How does FF THIRTEEN look interesting ? Nothing has been said about the game, only a few months ago they said they were 30% complete, all visuals have been pre-rendered - and even those look like the usual affair.

If anything you've been roped into the FFXIII fanboy hype, and they don't even know what theyre hyping,which is funny for a game that doesnt even have a storyline yet.

reminds me of how people were hyping Halo3 the day X360 was announced. Why did they hype it? because bungie has a good track record. same goes here for every other game, including Final Fantasy games.

Halo 3 was the continuation and conclusion of an obviously popular franchise.

All Final Fantasy games lack any general cohesion (even though there are thirteen of them) and are stand-alone games with nothing in common with one another apart from the ladyboy link.

Woo, you reminded me of FFTA2 again. :D

I'm so pumped for that game. As for FFXIII, can't wait, but I'm gonna have to wait a while. Doesn't look to release anytime soon but I bet it's gonna be epic when it does.
