Thanks, too bad the preview is just based on the trailer :s.

[Moklin]

LOl. So much information unconfirmed.

[Sabin]

Good to see something from Western media.

^ Not popular? What fucking poll/survey did they get this from? :cookie:

I love the direction they're taking with the battle system!

[Käthe]

It's pretty stupid on the fact they said the original FFX-2 ATB system was terrible.
Fuck that shit it was probably the best SE have pulled out of their arse, i know X-2 was terrible story line wise, but the battle system was amazing.

Agreed, I loved the battle system for X-2.

What he fails to mention is that although FFX-2 is one of the least popular game in the series (like he says), its battle system is what the game was praised for, and is considered by a majority as the best ATB system in the series.

That previewer seem to think that because FF X-2 wasn't as popular as the others, then everything in it was poor... Anyways, this is a misinformed preview like someone pointed out earlier, and shows that professionalism isn't as prevalent in this kind of media as it was years ago.

This is the truth.

About the demo:
It will launch in Japan in March


That's so insane ...

[Espada_Assassin]

I was gonna buy this Issue when i saw it the other day, thank god I didnt.

Was the theme any good?

[Zeta_Stryker]

Heh, who ever wrote this likes to hear him talk.

"May not be as popular"?

Well, fans will beg to differ when the demo hits the gamestores in Japan on the 16th.

[Adam Blade]

Bullshit? o:

[Nex]

He also says FF12's system wasn't tactical compared to other FF titles, which is ridiculous. Every single change they made to the battle system made it more tactical.

Still, that article was a lot better than most of the Western articles for FFXIII I've seen.

[Zeta_Stryker]

True, most magazines don't even pay attention to these FFXIII Updates. But at least that Hong Kong's Famitsu, Japanese' Famitsu and European Mags seem to like this game.

[kingmickey]

usa japan news always on the very first few things that came out leaked

[Zeta_Stryker]

Yeah, like with N.Power mostly. But on this side it's usually; EGM or GameStop's mag; G.I. Still, any news update is greatly appreciated. Even with this one.

Brings us one step closer to hopefully seeing the demo trailer.

I wonder why they even bother putting anything on FFXIII by now when they know that all the juicy info has allready been revealed in Japan (and translated of the fans), I think that everybody thats even the slightest interested in rpg's allready knows about this game... they could have saved their two pages for something else..

[Shanana]

Maybe not everyone wants to read translations of Japanese scans on the internet?

I mean, I thought it was simple, but apparently not. :wtf:

[mercy0001]

Wasn't Dengeki out this week with a lot of FFXIII, or are those interviews everything we get??
Is there a better quality scan with that hot girl holding a PS3 controller with the intro screen of XIII??

The Latest Dengeki wasn't the special. The next isn't out until the 10th.

[Final Ultima]

Does that say November release?:blink:

True said, but then again those two pages didnt contain much information considering what the last trailer showed... or did you read something i missed?
