LOL

1000 yen is not even 10 US dollars

RyuStrife5683d ago

Actually 1000 yen is more than 10 dollar at the moment. That's how less the dollar really is at the moment. $1 = 101 yen. do your math.

"Actually 1000 yen is more than 10 dollar at the moment. That's how less the dollar really is at the moment. $1 = 101 yen. do your math."

1000 YEN * ( 1 USD / 101 YEN ) = 9.90 USD

It seems pretty clear to me that 1000 YEN < 10 USD.

MS owns all5683d ago

Final Fantasy XIII should've been 360 exclusive! FF versus xiii is for homo emos! enjoy your gay game droids! I'll be playing a game for us straight people, Gears 2 and fable 2!

strotee5683d ago

I know this is an obvious troll but I couldn't resist. There's more grunting in Gears than the entire world tour of the Village People.

AuToFiRE5683d ago

aww poor you, not enough exclusive titles for you? maybe oyou should have gotten a real mans weapon, a Sony product, not something with a bunch of 10 year olds yelling at you to suck their peen0r

It someone wants it, it will happen. If you make it, they will come. It is inevitable.

The 7 Best Final Fantasy Characters: Unveiling the Legends

While FFVII ranks highly, there's more to the series than one game. Here's Chit Hot's picks for the seven best Final Fantasy characters.

The older it gets, the more I respect Final Fantasy XIII

Alex Donaldson: "Hindsight is a hell of a thing, however, and in the years since Final Fantasy XIII, my respect for the decisions its developers made has skyrocketed. In the two Final Fantasy titles since we see both the brilliance and the folly in alternative approaches - and in Final Fantasy VII Remake, we get a more nuanced understanding of what FF13 was trying to accomplish from many of the same development leads."

Einhander1972141d ago

FFXIII is actually one of the best Final Fantasy games.

I also sort of was disappointed at the time, never as much as the bandwagon. But really all the fantastic 3D rendered cutscenes and I actually liked the characters and the story though convoluted was actually fantastic and the ending was extremely emotional. So much budget and time were put into that game Square had such big plans, I actually have always felt kind of bad for how things played out.

I have been thinking for years how great it would be to get all three games on one disk for PS4 or 5.

Nyxus141d ago

I always liked this game, and I agree, a rerelease for current gen would be nice.

Shane Kim139d ago (Edited 139d ago )

Gotta take off the nostalgia glasses. It's the worst FF. Shiva as a bike, I mean come on.

Elda139d ago

Shiva as a bike is strange but saying FFXIII is the worst FF is not at all a fact, that's simply your opinion.

Terry_B139d ago

*One of the 3 equally bad FF's

DivineHand125139d ago (Edited 139d ago )

When I got my series X a year ago, I bought FF13 for nostalgia reasons but ended up being disappointed. When I first played it around the time it launched, I didn't have a lot of experience with final fantasy games, so I enjoyed it. Fast forward to when I played it again, I found that the game had many unnecessary filler moments instead of just giving us meaningful content.

The game is also very linear and a quote on the article said it best. "It is like a sewage pipe that leads to the ocean until it opens up on Grand Pulse."

The story didn't make much sense either and I believe it is my mistake as I played the FF7 remake on PS5 prior which is a night and day difference in terms of pacing, storytelling and likeable characters even though cloud is aloof.

FinalFantasyFanatic139d ago (Edited 139d ago )

Probably was a mistake to play any of the golden era FFs first (e.g. FF6 through FF10), it makes it harder to enjoy some of the FFs that aren't as good. I think FF12 was where major issues with the series started becoming apparent, and it just got worse from there.

FinalFantasyFanatic139d ago (Edited 139d ago )

I didn't really care for it that much, the only saving grace was that it had a better story than 15 (overall it was better than 15) and possibly 12, and even then, you had to read some of it through primers, like reading a book. Plus the battle system was reasonably fun for what it was, even if it was more the spectacle that was exciting for me (e.g. summoning). And to be fair, the 13 trilogy got better with every games, I still don't like Snow though.

Gamingsince1981139d ago

Ff13 is only good if you haven't played a ff before, or any other games that are decent for that matter.

-Foxtrot139d ago

It is in fact no way the best Final Fantasy game, it's one of the worst

Linear corridors, Cutscene, Fight, Cutscene...rinse and repeat

Dialogue and characters are pretty bad, especially Lightning as the main FF hero, they literally said they tried to make a "Female Cloud" and they failed.

Story was pretty awful

I could go on

I think the only alright thing that came from the game was the music.

Elda138d ago

That's not a fact that's your personal opinion. The game sold 11 million copies between its 2009 release up until 2014 including critically reviewed as an 8 out of 10 or an 80 out of 100. The game does have some issues but it's not at all a fact as one of the worst FF games.

-Foxtrot138d ago

Elda

Not just mine mate

A large majority

So….

Traecy138d ago

N4G commenters such as yourself aren't the majority. The game was well received.

i liked the game alot but i didnt like how they handled the terminology.

i dont mind reading data logs but it had soo many.

but i always loved the music and how it looked. the battle system wasnt too bad either.

but i like 13-2 more :)

i still dont understand why we never got a remaster of the trilogy

Eonjay139d ago

Xbox kinda did. Besides the video files of course which are still best on PS3 due to bluray.

Snookies12141d ago

XIII is a pretty solid game, but XIII-2 is WAY better. XIII-2 was one of the few games I decided to go for a Platinum trophy in, early on. Had so much fun the entire way through getting it too!

Eonjay139d ago

Totally agree. FF 13 was okay but 13-2 is my favorite FF game ever.

shinoff2183141d ago (Edited 141d ago )

I hated this to when it released. I haven't much liked a ff game since ff10 as much , aside from ff7remake. I decided to give it another shot on my series x since it's not on a current ps and was liking it quite a bit(just takes me some time to get over things ) until star ocean 2 remake came out I was all over that.

Square should definitely remaster it or something for ps4 ps5

KillerB139d ago

my favorite jrpg trilogy ever
