Yeah I'm going to enjoy it, Just because I don't like Leona Lewis, doesn't mean I'm biased to the game itself. I'm just disappointed with her having made the song, but that's my opinion, just because I love my old FF's the new ones have things to live up to.

3 more days....Ahhh, it's going to go slow.

I'd love to buy it on the first day...darn driving lessons have to come first *shakes fist in anger*

i must be in the minority, but i really don't think the song is that bad, and i could care less who sings it, as long as it sounds good

by Erel Sat Mar 06, 2010 10:01 pm

Well let's put it this way, it's not bad...

but FF music hasn't had it's flavor since FFX. Which.... of course only leave FFXII to be judge with Nobou's choice to leave Square {and FFX-2 if you count that}.

As long as the music and the soundtrack kind of captures the emotions and such; well... at any rate.... My anticipation...

The day has come. Has anyone played this yet, if so, what are your opinions on it so far?

by Claire Tue Mar 09, 2010 6:30 am

Not actually, I messed up on the date for the Announcement, it actually comes out tonight. .__.

by Tainted Dreamz Tue Mar 09, 2010 6:40 am

O.o Huh? Where do you live? it's already out over here. Came out midnight last night. That sucks for you, I've got my copy here. Waiting to play on it when I get home.

by Erel Tue Mar 09, 2010 9:12 am

heh. Heh. Heh. HAHAHAAHHA.

Vanille. She outdid Rikku's famous smile scene.

WOOOOO!!!!!!

Fun. It has some things I have qualms with BUT.... heh. Fun. I'm going to enjoy this game a lot. Defintely for me it has been worth the wait. Only ahve about two and half hours into but... nonetheless it's still fun.

by RYCloud92 Tue Mar 09, 2010 4:40 pm

I have a feeling its going to be ages untill I get this (damm money)

Anyway ign have done a review, they gave it a 8.9 which is a bit odd I was expecting at least a 9 but it is a review so its all about opinions.

I live in Texas, America and it releases at Midnight tonight, went and saw the poster myself.

I heard a review saying the gameplay is awesome whilst the story is stupid. Never happened with Square behind the wheel, so I need to play this.

by Erel Tue Mar 09, 2010 6:10 pm

My opinion on the game from the few hours I managed to squeezed out of it is that the nostalgic feeling of FF is few and far between in this game.

Music is cool, the feel is not FF. I mean come on, they took out the Victory Fanfare.

The characters {Especially Lightning and Vanille} are loveable. Story, I'm a little lost right now. It has flaws but it's a great game so far.

Look past the missing FF feel, I think right now this is the best JRPG that has come out for Ps3 {Not including Demons' Souls, that's different}. It's my favorite game right now.

by Leonknight Tue Mar 09, 2010 6:38 pm

The feel of FF is there in my opinion, they changed the battle system in this game for the better...it is such a awesome game honestly and now my top PS3 game and will be staying at the top.

Square in my opinion did good, changing some of the same old, same old stuff

by Claire Tue Mar 09, 2010 7:01 pm

What's the battle system like?

by Erel Tue Mar 09, 2010 7:55 pm

Your right though, Leon. It is on my top game right now. Until God OF War III comes out next week, It's not coming out of my Ps3!!!

As for the battle system, Therath, they did a good job hiding turn based. It's pretty much turn based with a different time system.... there's mroe to ti and I'll explain better when I have more experience with it.

I can't wait til I touch the summon battle system.

by Leonknight Tue Mar 09, 2010 9:54 pm

ooh helll yea i want to use the damn summons.

and the battle system is just fast paced compared to other's. If you fuck the hell up u can have a game over so quick.

by Erel Wed Mar 10, 2010 1:41 am

yeah game over. Experienced it twice. Dumbass me not wanting ot switch paradigms!!! lol.

Damn... Vanille..... and Lightning. My favorite new FF characters...

by Tainted Dreamz Wed Mar 10, 2010 1:48 am

I love the whole system on paradigms, I'm not that far in to it at least an hour or so. Liking the storyline so far. The chocobo chick <3

There was only one part of the music I liked so far...never know it all might grow on me.

As for the new battle system, I'm loving it. I hated having to wait ages to attack and with it being faster now it's so much better. Just don't let your leader die Razz

by Erel Wed Mar 10, 2010 1:55 am

I think this is one of the best guise of turn base battle system. Faced paced and very smooth to me. Camera Angles can be off at times but there's just so much stuff going on. I cna't imagine when we get more skills how crazy things will get.

Yeah. Chocobo living in a fro... lol. Didn't see that one coming!!!

by Archangel Wed Mar 10, 2010 12:33 pm

lol ya i love that lil chocobo chick lol

by Leonknight Wed Mar 10, 2010 1:27 pm

chocobo chick <3

by Claire Wed Mar 10, 2010 3:38 pm

by Leonknight Wed Mar 10, 2010 8:37 pm

by Erel Thu Mar 11, 2010 12:35 am

Please don't. I just got out of work and it's almost midnight here so I lost A lot of FFXIII gaming time. Hoping to at least get to Odin.

by Tainted Dreamz Thu Mar 11, 2010 1:52 am

Yeah. No spoilers are allowed to be posted in this thread. If a anyone wants to discuss the game with people who have played it, please make a spoiler thread Smile

by Claire Thu Mar 11, 2010 6:51 am

And do not inform me of it's location, temptation is a dark mistress, indeed...

I'm actually joking, I went nuts the other day because only two of my friends didn't get it either out of no interest or no money. And the ones that owned proceeded to spill everything about the game...
