We have to wait till 2008 before we can play Final Fantasy XIII, but Square Enix released one brand new screenshot of the game. This screenshot is unbelievable sharp and you can really count the hairs of Lighting (the main character of Final Fantasy XIII)
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.
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."
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.
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
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!
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
Square Enix Blog: "How do you compose iconic songs that help define a legacy? We speak to legendary composer Masashi Hamauzu about his work on Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy XIII, and Final Fantasy VII Remake, and how to make unforgettable music."
Holly Sh*T!!! that's looking great/badass!!!!.
power of green took the words out my mouth
crikey mate! Im so hoping this game is incredible. That's a frickin awesome screenshot. That screenshot even on some levels beats Advent Children graphically
Bullshots, anyone?
I don't doubt that it'll look great, but that great? No way that's a screencap.
Edit:
No way that's a screencap of an in-game scene. My money is on a screencap of a pre-rendered scene, because lord knows that's what Squeenix likes to do.
In-game footage SHOULD look like that now - or will do in this generation. Nextgen systems have the ability to render hair like that on the fly - especially the ps3 with its spu's making alculations for the movement of little things like that - can see it with Heavenly Sword...but certainly not that good. We'll see.
Oh and as you can see in Advent Children screen - it's much easier to animate hair that's got some product in it cause theres less hairs to calculate, as they can move together. lol
Your probably right that's what the PS3 will be good at(I have always said that), but i also believe that PS3 will be able to pull off canned animation close to this pic. If Sony uses this graphical short cut it won't make any differnce to the average consumers if PS3 is able to peice in Movies and good graphics Blu-ray's going to give PS3 it's own personal flavor with Movie and gamplay mix and obivouslly be the bread winner for PS3.
It's the only hope for PS3 mixing Advent Children like story telling that PS fans like anyways(taste in this Japanese style) Cut scene or not the PS3 has the space to take advantage of this. It looks good non the less.
Heavenly Sword hair lol,
