Dunno if anyone knows this or not yet, but the second horse Light appears to be riding is Sleipnir. Nobody knows why she can interact with more than one, besides being an Etro protector and all.

Serah’s story will have downloadable content. Producer Yoshinori Kitase said at Tokyo Game Show they are making downloadable costumes, monsters, and weapons for Final Fantasy XIII-2. Seems like some DLC will be pre-order bonuses, Lawson, a chain of convenience stores will give players a downloadable content code as a bonus.

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
I think I saw a cityscape in the 1080p trailer during a fight scene. I hope there's a "town" portion.

Is it Liam O'Brien? My speaker quality is a bit off but it sounds like him.

Lips aren't synced by the way! Don't rag on that of all things!

You saw that girl on the floor? How her lips didn't move, yet words came out of them.

She must have been a Mage.

The lip sync feels really off, but I really like the English track. The song's pretty good too. I might wait a month and just play this in English instead. It'll be nice not to have to hear Maaya as Lightning!

Yeah it's him.

On that note, I just beat Valkyrie Profile 2 and he was absolutely great as Lezard. Totally different voice though so I didn't catch it right away.

That song is ... I don't like it very much at all. Then again, that isn't my style of music to listen to. Also, audio mixing in this one seems off. I can hear the song more than the VA at times (iirc, this happened with the English FFXIII trailer for that Leona Lewis song as well).

The dialogue is laughable, but it doesn't help that some of the VA is just as laughable. Hope's more "mature" voice made me chuckle.

Er. Is that Liam O'Brien as Kaias?! English Version Day 1.

English voices >>>>>> Japanese voices.

Also, both of those trailers are the same, and neither is the Xbox360 trailer! :lol

I think this is just the Japanese video (see the battle menus) with English audio mixed without lip syncing. some of the FF13 trailer were like this, lip syncing in the game was great.

Oh, cool. Good to know. I didn't play FFXIII in English. I'm even more pumped now! :D

Yeah, I'm convinced this used to be Chrono Break. They probably want "Chrono Break" to sell well so they had to slap the name Final Fantasy to it.

Thought both trailers were the same, didn't realise they have an english version for the ps3 trailer. The va in the 'promise' trailer was much better. The less of Kaias' voice I hear the better.

What? This is clearly the sequel to FFXIII. Why would it have anything to do with Chrono?

After watching the 360 trailer I feel like I can almost guess the entire story. Goddamn Toriyama. Don't you have better tricks up your sleeve? Seriously. :(

What I really hate about Toriyama's stories for his sequels is that they ALWAYS pull the same gimmick. FFX-2 and FFXIIRW both had the "tragic doomed love story between two people across time and space" story, and it looks like he's pulling that out for FFXIII-2 as well. It's really.... bad. :/

Yeah, after watching those trailers, they seem to cement his status as a one-trick pony, I guess.

I hope that keeping my bar set really low with regards to this game's narrative will deliver some surprises, but I'm not holding my breath (especially after watching that X360 trailer)...
