[QUOTE="valereth-1"]By 'evolved' I hope it means they are putting depth and strategy back into the battle system. cjimrun

I found this game to have the deepest and most strategic combat out of the main series entries. This is the first time that you actually had to learn how to fight well. Paradigm building and shifting are skills that come with practice and experience. When people claim they just auto-battle their way through, to me that says that they didn't make it very far into the game cuz they never reached a point where these skills would be relevant. They are particularly key when attempting to 5-star tough enemies. At this point the fight becomes something that you feel your way through because you don't have time to think, you need to react or die. That is why they let you restart fights at anytime, cuz an experienced player knows when they've lost before it happens. Now THAT is deep.

FFXII. Where's Balthier, there's the awesome

[QUOTE="magitekk"]I find it entertaining how you people can never stay on topic. :|Balmane

...and did you guys hear that Nomura is considering William Shatner to do the English voice for Noctis's father in Versus XIII???

That would be surprisingly awesome even if he isn't a good voice actor. I dunno if he is or not. 

I was under the impression that Kuja killed the characters. Necron popped up to take their souls to whatever afterlife that game has, and they fought him for the right to live.

Kuja was the main villian of that game, and a damned good one. He did a lot of very despicable things and was hatable because of it, like a good villian should be

[QUOTE="lazyathew"][QUOTE="Lightning__Evil"]Thats for sure. Sazh is like doing leg kicks and all this unneeded movement when every he is shooting. He really should fall over some times the way he uses his guns.cjimrun

Final Fantasy XIII is a pretty cool guy. eh knows gun-fu, and doesn't afraid of anything.

There's actually a Christian Bale movie called Equilibrium where they practice "Gun-Kata's", a form of Kung-Fu with fire-arms. Despite how ridiculous that sounds, it's actually a pretty awesome film.
