Final Fantasy Versus XIII trailer

Yes, this is the clip where they got the screenshots from, but just in case you haven't seen this trailer yet, let the video embed below buffer a bit, and then click play. Now, we understand that the trailer isn't entirely new, but unless you were part of a select group of journalists at E3, it's highly likely that you haven't seen this trailer yet.

It says at the start that the games is from the team that gave us Kingdom Hearts and Advent Children, and it obviously shows. What is it with that group and obscure quotes that make no sense until you've played through the game?

Anyway, not to spoil people, but the floating swords bit in the video reminds us a lot of the final boss in Final Fantasy XII, and just so you guys don't get spoiled, we're not telling you who the final boss in FFXII is. If you can put two and two together to make four, then you can probably figure that one out on your own.




If you can read Japanese, be sure to check out the read link we've got below, it's the official page and you might be blessed with a few more details.

Only 100 hours to go in FF12 to fight the boss/main character in FF vs 13. Game Trailer looks sick.

» Sexiness!!

.... I just wish game developers would stop BS-ing us with CGI cutscenes. I'd rather see in-game than be promised lobster and getting Pez.



But since I'm a FF-fan(atic) I'll likely be picking this up; the FF-franchise has yet to let me down (FFX-2 and FFXI aside).

Even better: The dude actually LOOKS LIKE A DUDE! Maybe S-E will quit the androgynous crap... this isn't the 80's!!



"For PLAYSTATION 3"

Sooo... what's this I keep hearing about Xbox getting ALL of the exclusives? Is there some ultra-dark text after it that I didn't see?

» The True Benchmark of Games...

FF13 graphics will be a benchmark of every next-gen game[for ps3 and xbox360]...the fact that FF13 is a ps3 exclusive means sony has already secured ALL the rpg fans in the world..[not just japan and america].



i,m lookin forward to jump fiesta...which should come in about a week or so from now...then i,d love to see what our fellow xbox fans would say.

» Not really and Awesomeness

They're not bull*****ting you, the reason they haven't shown this since was because it is CGI and they have always said this is CGI. It's like that Halo commercial.



Anyway, that is an awesome trailer, I loved the way the bullets were stopped by invisible swords. ^^

It looks like PS2 game with CGI cutscene

by EndtheSorrow - 2006-12-08 02:13
» wow...what can I say its FF

Id like to say..that CG or not it looks amazing...we can all agree. I did read of one of my friends Jap gaming mags..that S-E promised to release a FF in this Generation that plays in game almost if not like Advent Children....that would be *****ing insane....hell even if they get 60%-100% of advent childrens detail...no game would touch it... Im not a fanboy...

I got a wii , a 360 , ps3 and a DS and currently playing FFXII ,FFIII , Gears and zelda...sooo not trying to be bias..I just think FFXIII is going to be like FFX in the ps2...the benchmark to compare all other rpgs by. I dont think currently there is a better RPG than FFXII id go as far to say...its right up there with X and VII..haha...I love S-E and I love thea stories....



hell yall know why u played FFX-2..not cuz the girls...just cuz u wanted to find out what happend in the story line ..even if the mechanics sucked...yall know....it...it was good..to find out about goood ol tidus.haha





FF is great...no matter what system its on...its always fun

» People are funny

LOL these posts of people saying that its only CG and it looks like PS2 (are you retarded?) make me laugh.... These are the same people that are going to run home and start to spank it to the Halo 3 Trailer...

» simply marvelous...

I love square-enix, lol. This game is looking too great to be true, I'd say I'm even more interrested into versus that FFXIII :|, wow!!



ps: I love the kingdom hearts team! and I love the style of advent children :D, what a combination!



PS3 is for me... my precious...

I'll buy mine around january to next summer max!

( maybe with bladestorm, maybe with MGS4 )

» Where

Is there a web site to download that clip from? I want it on my comp so I can marvel at it any time I like :)

by OMFG! - 2006-12-08 08:20
» FFXIII + FFvXIII

Thats an awesome combination. As long as Sony has Square-Enix's teams working on the main stream of FF for PS3, the PS3 has a chance in this "war"



LONG LIVE FF!

» Dont see why it cant happen

I expect games too look as they do this this trailer.



If they can get AFRIKA to look as good as it does now, imagine what they can do in a year or two.

» i will be getting this

i cant wait to play it , from the artistic stanpoint this game is going to be insane , characters , backgrounds and back drops. i cant wait to see the HUGE maps and summons FF is known for.

» ARe you for real?

FFX the benchmark to compare all other RPGs by? FFX wasn't even that great, it was good, but it was nothing earthshattering like FFVII or FFVIII. And half of us didn't even play FFX-2 because FFX wasn't that compelling. I haven't played FFXII yet ( I used to be on SEs nuts, that should tell you something), but its seeming like Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey are gonna be heavy hitters, hell you even have JP people camping out for blue dragon. Not to mention thee are alot better RPGs than FFXII I believe (though I haven't played it). Oblivion, Dragon Quest VIII, Blue Dragon, and more, take your pick.

by Matt - 2006-12-08 17:17
» Are YOU BOTH for real??

FFX is garbage. Grow up and play FF4,6,9, or Xenogears!! Enough with this 7,8,10,12 crap! I've played and beaten EVERY final fantasy game ever made, so please, stop. Oblivion is NOT a true RPG. Morrowind was 10x the game oblivion was anyway. Blue Dragon and Dragon Quest VIII

aren't out yet!! Shut up! They could be total garbage! Like FF12! Which wasn't even a final fantasy! (For more on "Not really a Final Fantasy'

see: FF8, FF10,FF10-2,FF11,FF12. Though FF10 and FF12 were very enjoyable games, they were not really Final Fantasy games. Much like 'the Wind Waker', and/or 'Majora's Mask'.) Thanks.

» Oops they did it again

I love S-E and I love Sony, everytime a FF game comes out its pure gold, 13 will be no different.



No disrespect to the xbox but If I wanted to play a FPS (as nice as GoW looks) id rather play it on my PC. Console shooters just feel too weird to me. Sports games are a dime a dozen and are never platform specific. But then you get a few selection of games that set themselves apart, while they may not even make up 5% of the library of the console they set the standards, the devil may crys, the metal gear solids, ratchet and clanks, final fantasy, god of war, tekken, guitar hero, shadow of the collosus, kingdom hearts etc, its these games that made the ps2 the champion it is.



I have no idea if PS3 will reign champion again, but lets look at this rationally. MGS and DMC are going to remain PS3 exclusives, as will FF, the tekkens, I didnt mind killzone for ps2 still woudl have preferred it on PC but I cant deny KZ2 looks utterly amazing. Its these franchise series that will drive ps3 sales not the ps3 itself.



So bring on the killer games and long live the ps3.
