these are too good to be burried in mega threads, new thread for new news
enjoy!

[djplaeskool]

I think I was estimating in the other thread, but if my playtime on FFXIII was any indication, I'm probably going to put at least 100 hours into this.
I have little doubt, and I will have no regrets.

[Shadow780]

I can't race Chocobos manually?

PRE-ORDER CANCELLED.

[ivysaur12]

But really, it looks amazing.

[badcrumble]

Those Time Labyrinth things are going to be more annoying than FFX's Cloister of Trials bits ever were.

[Stefan™]

"What are you looking at me like that for?"

[Suzzopher]

If the purpose of your post miladesn, was to get me to pre-order this, you have succeeded. Well played.

[Dark Schala]

That Temporal Rift clock reminds me of that clock in the Temple of the Ancients for some reason.

I'm still quite cautious about this game regarding the gameplay, narrative and flow, but the cityscape designs look damn impressive.

I am currently thinking of how much time I might put in for the trophies. :O

[The Last One]

So, Coruscant is in the game?

[Grisby]

I do like that FF take on Blade Runner shot.

[faridmon]

The menu Presentation is still looking bloody amazing, but I hate the Sci-fi look and the colour palette of the game.

[Jimmy Stav]

I suppose I should finally play XIII.

[weeaboo]

Please someone remind me that Square Enix sucks because I'm feeling excited >.<

[Kandrick]

I have been out of the XIII-2 news for a while, but... is that Hope... ?

Dear god.

[TheChillyAcademic]

Yeah I don't know that I'd call that AMAZING...colorful I suppose.

Oh and Chocobos etc etc

I have been out of the XIII-2 news for a while, but... is that Hope... ? Dear god.

Better than Old Man Snow.

[Boogalogist]

Does the city look like Blade Runner or what?

[RPGCrazied]

I think I must have missed some info or a trailer, but time travel now? I like the city. It's like having Versus but not really. :P

[MetatronM]

Dissidia?

[Castor Krieg]

Does the city look like Blade Runner or what?

I was going to ask the same thing.

[ilMikhail]

chocobo races ¡¡¡¡¡ day one

btw hope looks worse than ever lol

[TheChillyAcademic]

I think I must have missed some info or a trailer, but time travel now? I like the city. It's like having Versus but not really. :P

[ULTROS!]

Well, I was already gonna buy this day one. I'm just glad the HD towns are real now (and if you can enter the houses this time).

[Angelus Errare]

Dither Dither, pumpkin dinner.

[gatti-man]

At first I was meh but as I scrolled down the game really looks like FF. I hope square can finally pull it together and make a great FF game again. 13 was just sad.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 Wipeout minigame DLC PS3 exclusive confirmed?

[TheChillyAcademic]

http://www.abload.de/img/6510academia_05_rgbquep.jpg Final Fantasy XIII-2 Wipeout minigame DLC PS3 exclusive confirmed?

HEY HEY

STOP IT.

[PSFan]

Are those... CITIES I see!?

[Famassu]

Dissidia?

Some kind of minigame where you have to collect all those crystals and where you can touch each of those panels only once, after that they disappear

[Edvardelis]

So, Coruscant is in the game?

I would assume that's at some other point in time, there's no way they could create a city like that in the untamed wilderness that is Gran Pulse after a few years.

[Dark Schala]

Well, I was already gonna buy this day one. I'm just glad the HD towns are real now (and if you can enter the houses this time).

Yeah, I'm all for this if I can explore nearly every nook and cranny (I probably won't be able to do this). Pretty settings are nice, but being able to explore them is even better.

[Dunan]

these are too good to be buried in megat threads, new thread for new news enjoy!

This is an interesting shot. Those giant figures on the floor are numbers in the Etro alphabet, which was barely seen in the game; given that most of the Etro words were in Latin you'd think that they would use Roman numerals, but in fact SE prepared a set of ten digits, described in the Ultimania Omega, which never saw any action in the game.

But they're here, and if you look closely, you can see that the 4s are blue, the 3s green, the 2s orange, and the 1s red. So it looks like they're counting down in some way, and that something bad happens when you get to zero.

The letters in the circle surrounding those big colored figures don't seem to say anything and some of them look reversed. Maybe that circle is moving or rotating when the game is in action.

[H_Prestige]

As if you'll be able to explore any of that giant city.

[creid]

Dissidia?

From the demo, I think these are puzzle levels.

[zomgbbqftw]

What kind of no AA real screenshots are these?

I want bullshots with 16xSSAA applied!

[demosthenes]

Looks good, hopefully SE learned a lot and put it towards this game.

Unfortunately whenever I say that I think of FFXI -> FFXIV

[flyinpiranha]

Looks amazing. I'm hoping they really give me the feel of exploration. That is something I just have to have in an RPG now. Straight lines don't do it for me unless it's an action game.

[Dunan]

As if you'll be able to explore any of that giant city.

Don't you start! ^^;

I'm confident that the FFXII-loving crowd gave them enough rancor that the sense of exploration is coming back.

Besides, with Versus never actually coming out, they had to put those explorable-city assets somewhere.

[iKeepPlaying]

See Square!? You just needed 2 more years to make FFXIII a decent game. Although, the story is not my cup of tea, the rest looks great.

[Respawn]

Oh shit Its one jig Tomberry. That little blade puts excalibur to shame.

[Kagari]

What kind of no AA real screenshots are these? I want bullshots with 16xSSAA applied!

They're still touched up some, going by the real file names.

[Quadrangulum]

If it's as fantastic as it looks, I'll be glad to reverse my opinion on Final Fantasy XIII just because it led to this.

[Dark Schala]

As if you'll be able to explore any of that giant city.

I didn't want to come right out and say it, but this is exactly what I think as well. Shades of Nautilus and Palumpolum once again if this theory proves to be correct. Eden and its NPCs, at least, were handled fine I think.

This is an interesting shot. Those giant figures on the floor are numbers in the Etro alphabet, which was barely seen in the game; given that most of the Etro words were in Latin you'd think that they would use Roman numerals, but in fact SE prepared a set of ten digits, described in the Ultimania Omega, which never saw any action in the game.

Given that both the Cocoon and Pulse alphabets use Arabic numerals, I assumed that it would be natural that Etro numbers would use Arabic numerals as well. But yeah... it's interesting that Etro numerals do not use Roman numerals at all for consistency since it pulls lexical items from the Latin language quite a bit. Oh well.

I guess it's a minigame where you have to get across to the door before the numbers hit 1 or 0.

[Yoshichan]

Please tell me you're a XIII hater.

Then do me a favor and look at this:



Now tell me you're going to hate XIII-2. Please do.

A bunch of beautiful screens, I still can not fathom how good this game will be.

[chri5t]

I said wow.

I won't get myself hyped though. I've learned my lesson after FF13. I'm going in with no expectations!

[BrettWeir]

FFXIII-2 : Fifth Element Edition. I could dig that.

[Brazil]

I said wow. I won't get myself hyped though. I've learned my lesson after FF13. I'm going in with no expectations!

Same here. Day one, though.

[Meier]

Looks wonderful. Have they said if there would be any sort of carry-over or affect from your FF13 save? I played it on 360 but am considering getting the PS3 version of 13-2.

[Kagari]

Not really, no.

[Ashkeloth]

Looks pretty, but unless they found themselves a new script writer, or at least someone who knows how to transition a script from east to west without it sounding awkward as hell, I still can't be interested, even if it seems there's something to do other than run down a corridor for most of the game this time.
