Final Fantasy XIII (150 views)

Okay, so I just got done watching the Japanese trailer, and THEN watched the English trailer, and I think, for once, the English voices are better than the Japanese ones, but that's just my opinion.

English version of the trailer:

I actually wasn't planning on buying this game, but this trailer might've changed my mind a bit. Still, the story seems a little melodramatic, but hopefully the characters will make up for it. And ain't it pretty? SE poured in the money on the graphics, didn't they?

Edit: Just realized this!
The American release will come out ON MY BIRTHDAY. That's the best part. <3

Yeah, the storytelling seems really melodramatic, but you never know

I just wanna try it when I get a chance, just to see if it's good or not

And AWESOME! Definate birthday present.

I'm more curious about the other two games in the series, Verses XIII and XIII Agito

[pichubro]

I'm gonna probably still not have a PS3 by my birthday (though it'd make a handsome birthday gift), so if I DO get this game, it'll be for the 360, and I won't be able to play the other two games. :/

[Mario the black knight]

Here's a good idea

Trade in the Xbox for a PS3, I've already convinced 2 other people to turn to the light, I'm sure you can too

Zafo can suck it, he probably plays awful games that are crossplatform anyway. PS3 is cheaper, better, and far more important. You should get the PS3 for christmas, then the game for your birthday

[pichubro]

The 360 is technically his; I can't throw away someone else property. I just rent it out when I need to play a RPG now and then. :x I mostly still play the N64, PS2, and my Nintendo handhelds.

If I want to play a 360 game, I really should just buy it for the PC, but my computer makes weird sounds when I play games, like an extra fan turns on or something so I don't even know... It's supposed to be a gaming computer too. All I have is The Sims on it.

[Mario the black knight]

Like I said, Zafo can suck it, your PS3 needs are far greater than his bad game needs, and he can just buy all of his bad games for PS3 most likely anyway, except for Gaylo and left 4 dead, which he can just cry about, just get him a Kane poster for christmas and he'll forget all about it

Or alternatively, ask for a PS3 for christmas, You can get them used for less than it probably costs your parents to own Zafo's Xbox. I can give you an entire list of custom arguements if they need convincing. Also, if you are willing to make the sacrifice, you can trade in your Wii as well, you can get a decent enough amount of money to probably get the PS3 for less than $100, depending on what you have for trade in.

[pichubro]

No trade-in Wii; I've grown to love it. Not as much as my other systems, but it's been a good friend to me when I needed it.

I don't see the problem with my brother keeping the Xbox since that'll mean he'll stay off the PS3.

I don't want to feel selfish though; I'd rather buy the PS3 with my own money, and, if all goes well, I might start up a new job in a couple of weeks. I'd just feel better about myself if I bought my own gift. Not to mention the fact that my parents have to find the money to send me to community college, then university. I can't just go 'buy me this, kthxbye.' whenever I want to. So yeah, I'd rather work for it.

(Though I technically might have enough to buy a PS3 with my Christmas money, as my crazy, don't-know-what-else-to-use-money-for grandparents give me close to $150 a year, not to mention birthday money, and whatever money I have left over from other years.)

[Mario the black knight]

Ahh, I guess, I just figured You liked PS3 more than that and all

Well when you put it that way it makes sense, I just figured it would be the easiest way, but it probably would be better to keep the PS3 to yourself. And that makes sense too, You wanting to buy it yourself. I just thought that if they can afford to give your brother a needlessly expensive system, they would be able to get you a senseably priced but still expensive one. And if you can afford it, go for it. You won't regret it. Everyone I know who has one loves it. They owned both Xbox and Wii's, and they by far loved their PS3 the most. So definatly go for it when you can afford it.

You can tell me what you think of FFXIII when you do

[Mario the black knight]

HA HA HA, well it looks like you'll have a PS3 for it now

So your birthday is in March?

[pichubro]

Yeah, March 9th like the game. We will be sharing birthdays.

[Mario the black knight]

Hah ah ah a, niiiiceeee

Sweeeeet

[pichubro]

You know what game I would rather have on my birthday though? Red Dead Redemption. RDR and The Last Guardian are the top two games I must have on their first day of release. And Zelda Wii, but who knows when that'll come out.


But how does this NOT look awesome?

[Mario the black knight]

Because it has cowboys, thats why it doesn't look awesome. I hate rockstar games.

[pichubro]

Aww, I think it looks good. I guess it's because I'm a Western fan. Though I think it'll be the first Rockstar game I might actually like.

Besides it's made by Rockstar San Diego, who are not part of the GTA series production as they were bought by Rockstar in 2002. They actually helped with Resident Evil 2 back in the day.

[Mario the black knight]

It justs looks like a GTA plot with a western mosaic to me, even if it doesn't have involvement with the real series. It looks boring to me. There was another Rockstar game called Red Dead Revolver a couple of years ago for PS2, it looked awful, I thought the name was really stupid.

I don't think this will ever hold a candle to Resident Evil 2
