Interesting. If there truly is to be a sequel to XIII, I'd of course be interested. My major concern though is where they'd take the story... I can see one or two possible routes, but I thought FFXIII ended quite well as it is.
We shall see though.
Thoughts?

Yeah... not sure about this, especially since they haven't released the other XIII games. O.o

I know, it'll probably be three years minimum before we even get an official announcement. :p

Oh, I see. So... 2013 at the earliest.
<_<
In all seriousness though, it probably won't take all that long. It's not that they have to develop a whole new engine/design new gameplay/etc. Just gotta write the story. Which could take a while in and of itself... but we'll see.

Haha, from what I hear, they're using discarded assets from FFXIII. Soooo.... it shouldn't take that long.
The real question is, when are we gonna see Versus XIII?

Heh, Versus... I pretty much have to keep reminding myself that it's in production, considering how little we hear of it. >_<

Yes. I'm quite aware.
That doesn't mean that I don't take every advantage to taunt him with reasons to find a way to see it.

So I know that you can't watch the trailer because of your connection, but for the rest of us (and maybe for you, should you find a way to do this), here it is, officially released and in English:

I still haven't played
I'm still not sure about changing the fighting style, I loved my turn based Final Fantasy.

At it's core FFXIII is still turn based. It's just a... faster... more intense turn based than in previous installments in the series.
I personally liked the system, probably my favorite out of all the FFs so far (as much as I love traditional JRPG turn based stuff, FFXIII is just so... smooth).
