Okay, here's how it's going to go: KEEP IT CIVIL AND CLEAN
Rules:
1) Do not go out of your way to antagonist people. I don't want to see people playing the fanboy card or insulting people, or trying bait/troll using "ammo" provided by differences in versions.
2) Keep it factual. "Lol what did you expect S-E ported this in 3 months" is not factual, "It was probably scaled down to protect Japanese PRIDE" is not factual. Making exaggerated claims to fan the fires of dramatica is also not factual. If you want to compare the games, let's look at direct feed screenshots, direct feed video, and make factual comparisons to determine which is the best purchase for people who have a choice.
3) NO SPOILERS. Do not discuss how FFXIII sucks because Aerith dies. Or how the game is obviously a linear piece of shit because 20 hours into the game you enter a tunnel which is a straight 20 hour path to the final boss. Do not use this thread to discuss any story spoilers or gameplay elements not revealed before hand. I don't want to see people using this thread as a springboard to troll the game, or to talk about import impressions. I don't want people asking questions about the game from importers either. There are other FFXIII threads for that.
4) If you are playing the Japanese game, or want to talk about Japanese voices, or you want to discuss beautiful it is to see the game as a PS3 exclusive in Japan - go post on the FFXIII Import thread, or the Impressions thread. Not here. This thread is exclusively for pre-release discussion on the English version of the game for NA/Europe due out for the PS3 and 360.
