Final Fantasy XIII Discussion

So who's getting this? It comes out in March.

I've been a fan of the series since I played FFX. I tried getting into FFXII today but I just couldn't get into it, the battle system sucks ****.

The only reason I'd want to get a PS3 is for Final Fantasy Versus XIII

If you have Vanilles Death spell, theres a trick that can be used to exploit them.



Orly cool can u post it on here. Its amazing how the diffucilty goes up from pretty much not dieing the first 30 hours to dieing often i suppose its my fault for trying to kill the really big things all the time. Have you killed any cactur yet god dam there quick.
EDIT* I found out how to beat the Shiva sisters it's all a matter of timing your steel guard.

when I look on the cover it says it's and Xbox live title so I'm guessing it has online features, but I never seem to find them Am I missing out on something here ?

Oh and I just got my 360 on Sunday so I'm sort of new.

I just went to EB, flashed my pre order receipt and got a calender (they didn't have theirs at release). Funny thing is that they didn't take the receipt..might go there later and get another one

Look on the back cover. Offline features are in the green boxes and online features are in the orange boxes. It might be as simple as it has DLC... which is why it has the Xbox Live logo on the front. It is retarded, but thats how they do it.
Ah thanks Milky, Well I'm up to Chapter 4 Lightning is still being a bitch and the gameplay got a hell of a lot harder.

U kidden me mate u shouldn't be dieing at all in chapter 4 you should really die till at least chapter 9
Thought I'd post a picture of my sweet cactuar doll lol
his arms arent right what jerks
The trick with the adamantoise is to use Vanilles summon, which instantly kills its legs making it unable to attack for a fair while.
During this time, Spam Vanilles Death spell until it either dies via insta kill or stand back up. If it stands back up, just retry.
Also, anyone else the last boss? Im up to him and im not really having trouble with it, but i just cant find the time to beat it lol.
A bit of afvice for it, bring Death preventing gear. He has a insta kill abillity.
Ha aw what death ability thats rude im near the end jsut stuffing around now ill kill the last boss and tell ya how i did it.

Oh believe me, hes not entirely difficult. Just that i havent had time to play it in awhile, and when you attack him enough he uses an abillity that has a chance of instakill.

EDIT

Finished this game today. Ending was beautiful.
Yeah looking forward to seeing ending clip
Almost at 1000/1000, then did some lurking on Gfaqs. Turns out that elemental rings are limited in number and i sold them all without upgrading them...
Now i need to do another whole playthrough just so i can get this last achievement. Ah well....

Also, Long Gui are very, VERY hard. Maxed Crystarium is a must, and even then you'll be wanting pretty much perfect equipment...
i was supposed to get FFXIII today, instead i ended up buying myself clothes hehe
I ended up taking ff13 back. What a fail. I'm a old school final fantasy fan and these games are just getting worse. 7 and 8 will always be hard for them to top if all they think of is how great it looks. Boo! Bring back open world style!

Apparently it opens up about 15(or so?) hours in.

I didn't stick with it long enough though.
Opened up 4-5 hours in for me. I haven't touched it in a week cause some douche spoiled it for me

He speaks the truth!

I'm not so keen on getting it now, don't have time to waste waiting for a game to get good.

Was kind of evident that this was a trend anyway after #9
Haha same I gave up on disc 2 when I spent nearly 2 hours running down some path with fight after fight. It just was not fun.
Mira, PM what the guy said the ending is. Id like to see if he was telling the truth or not.
And guys, as soon as this game hits Gran Pulse, it becomes brilliant, and not as much of a chore.
i got up to chapter 10 by forcing myself to play it... i reaaaallllyyyy hate this game. its just not fun.

i love the graphics and the story, but the gameplay is just horrible. the whole linearity thing was just too much. it was like holding up on the control stick until the next fight, and then watching cutscenes, and repeat.

i really wana play it through to the end just for the story, but the gameplay is so excruciating i cant take it. especially with games like mass effect 2, resident evil 5, and mw2
Resident Evil is just as linear as this lol....
But yeah, my advice is to stick to it until chapter 11. Thats when it hits full stride.
PM'd . Thanks Kiss.
Mira just told me what that guy said earlier in the thread, and i can confirm that that is NOT the real ending. That guy was just a massive troll.
up to chapter 10 and really enjoying the story and gameplay, prefer the old school final fantasy games but this ones not too bad....it keeps me entertained for hours atleast

definitely think hope and lightning are my favourite to use, cant wait to see how it ends....

catch yas later!
