Anoop explains the Crystal Points system in detail.

Actually sounds really really good. Hype for the battle system and growth system regained!

Re: New Final Fantasy XIII Information and Screens -Mark ALL Spoilers!-

I actually scanned over that article but didn't read it because I thought it was all stuff I knew about.

Man, the system actually sounds really good. Lots better than the sphere grid system I was comparing it to. I like how your experience is essentially currency for skills, which is something that hasn't been done before. It also sounds fun to use, and it's nice that you're not restricted to one path once you start it.

Sounds amazing!

Mmmmm . . . So essentially, they just dropped traditional exp and just streamlined AP (now called CP) onto a freeflowing sphere grid-esque job system? Sounds like some awesome.

Re: New Final Fantasy XIII Information and Screens -Mark ALL Spoilers!-

That actually sounds pretty cool. Being able to freely choose what role each characters gets sounds like an ingenious system to work with.

And from what I can infer, it seems like you can switch between their roles at will. Well, I don't know that for sure yet, but that's actually damn cool.

Re: New Final Fantasy XIII Information and Screens -Mark ALL Spoilers!-

So, has anyone else noticed that the ESRB rating has appeared on the official site? I'm pretty sure that it was "Rating Pending" when I checked it earlier (and last time I checked was earlier today); this could mean that the release date is fairly close!

Re: New Final Fantasy XIII Information and Screens -Mark ALL Spoilers!-

I'm really surprised nothing has leaked.

Edit: So according to the US Playstation Blog, the trailer is

TEN MINUTES LONG.

Oh my god. To watch it or not to watch it. Five page discussion on the pros and cons of each side starting now!

Pro: THE ENGLISH VOICES.

Re: New Final Fantasy XIII Information and Screens -Mark ALL Spoilers!-

I'm guessing they'll give the release date in the trailer.

Re: New Final Fantasy XIII Information and Screens -Mark ALL Spoilers!-

They were really talking BS saying how this was a bigger than big announcement, since it's a trailer and set of release dates. It's still great news, but not as big as they're making it out to be.

- Maybe they'll show more of the summons in action.
- Leviathan/Vanille's summon reveal?
- Emotional JPop sadface.
- Could see more on how these natural summons are integrated - IFRIT!
- Other Chocobo reveal.
- Wakka cameo.

That's about all I can think of that would show up. Most of those are pretty amazing if they get shown.

- There will be over 100 different materials throughout the game.



All I have to say is OMG, this gives me junction system nostalgia. Snow better get a Cactaur design for his jacket.

Japan uses CERO, not ESRB.

I've been looking at the updates to the Japanese Website this entire time, since they've got more stuff, even if it's in a language I can barely understand. So yeah, that's why I was mildly surprised by the rating already being up there.

Re: New Final Fantasy XIII Information and Screens -Mark ALL Spoilers!-

Less than 12 hours for the announcement!

HYPE HYPE HYPE!

A march release date would be fantastic. Plus all of the stuff I listed a few posts above, for the trailer. I honestly don't think NA/EU will get a demo at all.

I never used to like FF, but after playing XII, (which I thought was awesome,) my opinion has changed! XIII sounds good, might have to look into it!

I guess hoping for a January/February release date would be too much.

Re: New Final Fantasy XIII Information and Screens -Mark ALL Spoilers!-

You know, since it's Friday the XIII, Square-Enix could just pull a dick move and announce that the game was delayed by three months or something.
