OPM UK: New Final Fantasy XIII Preview Scan

[Kitmitsu]

Official Playstation Magazine UK has a new feature on Final Fantasy XIII summarising the news we've recieved over the past couple of months. This is a surprise considering that there is usually several months between the Japanese press and Western magazines printing new information. Like usual there isn't anything new in the article that we haven't already read. They're actually wrong about a few facts such as the April 2010 release date for the UK which was never fully confirmed and was actually stated as "After April 2010" rather than the actual month. In any case, enjoy a scan in English for a change.

I wonder if they received the pictures from SE or took it from the official website?
The SE rule that they would gradually release new <good> news each month is broken for the moment.

i also have been dying for new GOOD news especially after the end of last month when the trailer was released my excitement for the game was at a high and it dropped pretty quickly which made me sad :(

I wonder if that thing about Lightning being an Amnesiac is a rumor-turned-fact by the magazine, or if it actually was a fact and I missed it. ;)

But yes, English is nice.

So that's a traitorous, genocidal ex-soldier, a rebel, some borderline jailbait and a cry baby with a bird in his hair - it's got to be the weirdest Final Fantasy cast yet. Aahahahaha.

Finally, something in English. :awesome:

Thx, but I prefer japanese one when I read stuff like this...

"Lightning is the first lead heroine of FF" (wtf---VI,X-2?)
"Enemies are decidedly darker then before"
"Lightning is called " enemy of mankind " (omg)
"Snow is the leader of a resistance group"

They sure know a lot!

Yeah, seems to be pretty much fact these days. I think it was confirmed in a (very small) pargraph by SE, but I can't find it. >_< Great.

Non-Japanese mags always have recycled infor. How is that surprising? :| Naturally, if the game's being released in Japan first the Japanese mags will get the latest/most, and others filter it through.

FF VI didn't have a single main character.
And FF X-2 isn't considered a "main" entry in the series.

There, everything fits.

"Enemies are decidedly darker then before"

NOE. Kefka <3

Yes, of course, I know.
Im not complaining about them being so late with this stuff, for me it just sounds made up.

Ok, ok... Lightning is the first real female main character... the rest is still bs though!

...

They see one "dark" enemy and immediately go like:

"Wooow, this time FF Enemies are going to be very dark, woohoo" :wtf:

and what about this BS, Snow being the leader of the resistance group?
Where did they get that from ?
