[QUOTE="queen_valentine"]

[QUOTE="CraigyM83"] Not so much the music itself but one of the reasons I've always enjoyed FF games is the music that comes with it and I think it's shame they've sold out the original theme to replace it with a tacky pop song.frostybanana

I agree wholeheartedly.

I don't think nobuo did this one's soundtrack, which I think is the real disappointment. But I hear he's helping with FF14 hah.

Nope, he's doing FFXIII Versus, which mostly all the FF vets are working on. I bet everyone here that Versus will be the best jprg this generation.

[QUOTE="CraigyM83"][QUOTE="Khadaj32"]

I think you have Final Fantasy XIII confused with Bad Company 2. Understandable...they're so...similar...?

Khadaj32

I think you have the post confused with the nature of being 'serious'.

Oh...that was humor? Do you go into Bad Company 2 threads and state Vanille is annoying in all caps?

:/

No, his joke was rooted in the fact that mostly all games these days are multiplayer with a short single player. Its a joke because FFXIII digresses from this trend, and he is trying to apply the game toward these current trends. Basically, he is mocking current trends. He can't just go into BC2 threads and talk about FFXIII because that doesn't make sense (he wouldn't be mocking anything). I don't know, i found it funny ;)

yeah, all the videos are in-game/realtime. Therefore, they should look the same. I don't know man, keep on messing with the video outputs i guess

yeah, i agree. health does seem lower or something. Also, i feel like the select detection is much harder to use (did they decrease the detection radius?)

It's not because of lightning's personality that it's linear, it's because of the story. It's a chase for the first 15 hours of the game or so. Unlike in other FFs where you might have 7 different events going on for the first 15 hours, this game basically has 1. It has this weird quality where it feels shorter and longer at the same time because of it.

i'm like 14 hrs into the game right now and its still going from point A to point B, havent made it to the grasslands yet where you can actually pick and choose missions

how do you like it so far?

hmm, i agree that reviews must be looked at in order to make sure you are wisely spending $64. That's why i take reviews a concensus. If the game is generally review bad, its probablly a bad game, and vice verca. But there comes a point where "good" and "amazing" is ultimately up to the player. I say, once after 8.5, the game's greatness is up to the player. For example; MGS3 got a 8.6. I consider it one of the greatest games of all time. Shadow of the Colossus got an 8.6, and its one the greatest games of all time, imo Same with Silent Hill 2, and MGS1, etc... So, an 8.5? To me, that's destined for greatness.

hey guys, do you think this will be a plausable Platinum (i.e. Uncharted, RE5, etc), or do you think it'll have a couple trophies that are simply impossible? Because, if it seems to be a maintainable/fun platinum, i may pick up the guide for the second playthrough. Also, the art in it is gorgeous ;).

Hey quick question guys: Do you think i should buy the strategy guide? I'm confused because i love getting all the ultimate weapons and knowing all the secrets, but i always feel guides detract from the experience (it feels less like an adventure, you know what i mean?). Also, this game is linear, so im wondering if the guide is even needed. What do you guys think?

Yeah, i agree, a Scanner Darkly was pretty much "wtf" the whole time. Same with Mulholland Drive. wtf?
