Final Fantasy XIII Targets Advent Children Style Action |
Ó
Regardless of what you thought of Square Enix's sophomore outing in the full length motion picture business, Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, it's more than likely that you'll agree that (a) it looked gorgeous and (b) the action was absolutely out of this world. Id that's the case it'll come as good news to hear that the people behind the PS3's upcoming uber-RPG Final Fantasy XIII, are looking to Advent Children for inspiration.
Final Fantasy XIII game director Motomu Toriyama has stated that he wishes to see just how far his team will be able to push in-game battles, aiming for the sort of frenetic pace and action seen in the movie. He also went on to say that he expects to have a playable build of the game ready in time for E3 2007...yeah, I guess that means we have a looooong wait ahead of us before we're able to bring this sucker home.
Certainly exciting news, but one has to wonder how exactly Toriyama and his team are planning on reaching the frantic pace of the action in the movie with traditionally slow paced RPG combat, major changes in store perhaps? Only time will tell.

*droools* both movie and game look beautiful. I soo wish to play this soon. FFXIII alone is a Good reason to buy a PS3
They are experts in making CG. Btw: I the game teaser you can see the clock in the corner is speed up. It was some cutting in the movie to makethe fight look like it was more hectic then it really is. But i cant deny that this looks like to be a mix between the battles in FFxii and kindom hearts.
too crazy cant wait to buy ps3 . If the ps3 graphics ar gonna look like that im soo gonna buy it. Its kinda scary how realistic people can make ***** look now with computer graphics
Square has perfected the art of confusing people on the gender of their protagonists
This things going to be another 18 months atleast probably. I want to play it now. Looks really good too. I remember booting up FFX for the first time. Hopefully i'll get the same feeling from this game.
That'll be interesting to play a FF game based on the "combat" system of AC. ------Spoilers The fight between the Bahamut was very nice. All the team members participating, joining moves and stuff.
probably have a devil may cry system... yay, no more waitin around with the damn attack thing
Interesting, I've never seens the pics compared side by side before and... wow the ps3 stuff looks really good! Also, good article, Chris.C you have my respect, your one of the better posters here on QJ.
"probably have a devil may cry system... yay, no more waitin around with the damn attack thing" ... if it has a Devil May Cry system, I would have to kill the creators of the game. Devily May Cry is by far one of the worst pieces of trash I've ever played, complete with bad gameplay, poor effects, and ridiculously bad dialogue. I can't believe you even said that.
I appreciate the compliment. Personally I think some sort of modified system using Vagrant Story's combat system could work, hopefully we'll hear more soon!
you are sadly mistaken if you think any of that are actual game graphics.
CSFFlame.....LOL they actually stated that few parts of it were CG. but most were actual game graphics.
The PS3 is extremely powerful, so much, that I have read that it rivals the most powerful gaming PC's out there, right now. Check out the specs on this bad boy! Cutscenes have always been really nice. If this is a cutscene movie, then I can say "great", but it's not showing anything different. If this is in-game footage, it truly is amazing, and I don't see why they can't do something like this, now. Technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, and it's only a matter of time. The PS3 just has to run games, it doesn't have all of the bloat that personal computer OS's have. The PS3 is a screamer compared to PC's for this reason. Game's don't have to compete for resources. I wish mac/windows would come out with a gamer OS and keep it a completely separate project. Because PC's are by far easier to upgrade than a console, it would make perfect sense to have a PC as your main gaming platform. We just need an OS that trims the fat and is optimized, specifically, for gaming. I'll retract this statement when gaming consoles make upgrading easily, a reality.
I really wish they hadn't decided to go with style of advent childrens combat, it was bloody attrocious. The matrix series pretty much did all that style to death a couple of years ago. I wish they'd look at their intro to final fantasy 8, the fact that there is actual swordplay and magic use in there rather than just jumping towards each other and clanging a single blow with their swords and pout in each others faces before flying... I mean 'jumping' away up buildings and what not.
OMG, thaaank you #14. final fantasy 8 was my favorite. i dont know why it was. i just liked its atmosphere. and the cutscenes owned!
