Oh. The later quotes had you as GRUN-3 so I must have missed that. You're still an unrecognizable old coot. I bet if you posted nudies in your journal everyone would know you.

It opens with a young grey haired, red eyed man in black sitting on a throne looking like his dog just died. It lingers on his depressed state for some quite time before he stands up and walks outside. At the entrance are some fallen guards and at the base of the stairs there is a large group of men wearing knight style armour but holding guns. The young man slowly descends the stairs in no rush and all the men open fire on him. The bullets that miss hit the stairs but the bullets that hit seem to be hitting some sort of barrier or forcefield in front of the man. As more bullets hit this forcefield you notice its actually the outlines of swords that the bullets seem to be striking.
Gamespot preview also points out this:

He emerged onto a staircase that was riddled with the corpses of what seemed to be uniformed guards. The camera then shifted to behind the mysterious man, showing the square in front of the building, and it was filled entirely with black-clad troops--who interestingly enough seemed to be dressed the same as the corpses. Perhaps some kind of power struggle is being hinted at.

Dante clone or not, that description sounded awesome.

What I don't like is the possible name of the character for FFXIII, "Lightning".

lol: Falgua? It sounds like the name of a town, not a person.

For name suggestions: How about something like "Tesla" as in Telsa Coils? XD
or (since I mentioned French up above), how about éclair? French for Lightning, and a name that HAS been used as a girl's name before (in an anime series called Kiddy Grade).
Hmm, as a frenchman, hehe, sorry but Éclair sounds like really dumb as a name, but I certainly understand that it might sounds “kinda cool” to Americans though… like Italian and Romanian stuff sound to us...

IMO, if you have to call her in French, call her Claire (tout court), Sabrina, Nicole, Isabelle or even Julie, or if you have really no choice… call her France. ;)

About that FF V XIII trailer, it seems very teasing and interesting, we got to get our hands on the trailer guys, now I’m intrigued…

Is this why you're so well-known around the gay population?

I never considered that part. Claire would be alright, but there's already a Claire (Resident Evil), and Julia was Laguna's uh... Crush (I forgot if they actually got together or not) from FFVIII.

Isabelle or Sabrina would be fine with me. I wish they would reveal a name soon sop that we can stop discussing this :p

NYRSkate May 13, 2006 10:44 PM
You'd better hope that if they name her Sabrina, she's at least 20 years old.

Looks like Kotobukiya is making FF13 figures as well, their Play Arts line must be doing really well or something. Here's a prototype of FF13's heroine, lookin' pretty good.

Already eh? FFXIII merchandise moving at light speed. And I've yet to see a completed version of the Kotobukiya merch for FFXII. What's interesting is the VIII figures were released a short while ago.

Hantei May 14, 2006 02:45 AM
Haha, yea the merchandise is moving right along. Also saw the FF8 figs at some Japanese sites. Here are some pics of Squall and Selphie (whose dress is removable, heh). Still waiting for Diamond Comics to distribute that line.

Spatula May 14, 2006 02:47 AM
That's hilarious with the Selphie one. I'm honestly quite surprised the clothing is "removable"? Barbie wannabe, I guess. God, I still have YET to get the Fenrir and Cloud. That's # 1 on my collection list. It would go nicely with my AKIRA - Kaneda's bike.

The sockets on Cloud don't look too too bad, compared to others:

Wow, I really like the head for the FFXIII heroine figure. Surprised a figure is being made already... I still haven't even bought the FFVII:AC figures yet :(

Well, if you were desperate, you could say it stays true to the PS1 battle screen models that way.

Jagged May 14, 2006 04:54 AM
Here is a bigger scan of the female character, not best quality sadly:

Her legs look awfully sexy, doesn't it? I really wonder what her name will be...

With the grotesquely bulging tri/biceps and all. Hey, look at how heavy that blade must be.

Well, I think "Lightning" besides the ATB bar, pretty much gives out the hint. That her name could be Lightning.

That's actually a hint that her name is not "Lightning". Since when do character names come in representative font (some edgy like a lightning bolt)and colors (yellow for Lightning °.°). It even has white shading, lol. Of course I'd be the dumb if this is actually her name, but I consider it light speculation.

A highly advanced system in FF XIII analyzes the name you give to the character and assign to it the appropriate font and colors.

Personally I doubt that's even the actual UI for the game. It may have just been created as a mockup of what is possible on the PS3, especially considering the non-gameplay nature of the battle shown. Also a mockup of possibilities. Additionally, that UI would be impossible to use in a non-HD format unless the game went letterbox.

Oh god we just had a two page discussion on this.

Her name HIGHLY likely to not be lightning.

Yeah, as it was for early screen shots of FFX, the menu was kinda similar in layout but not in looks:

So same principle for the UI on this game ;)

Well why not? Imagine that, you could actually watch a cinematic battle scene, and at the same time you would be building the very next scene by queuing commands of your character as in the teaser, you know like when she does "Firaga" and then "Shoot", those are actually queued actions in the command bar.

Those queued commands would be use to build the next sequence depending on many variables like the number, the position and the size of enemies, how they move, balance, char level, char mood, room size and room elements, environment, timing, random, etc, and with all that the white-engine-AI could generated cinematic-feel-battle-sequences similar to the one we saw in the teaser.

Now THAT would certainly add much more to the RPG/FF gender then just "better graphics", and would definitely be next-gen and a...“kinda-cool” I might add :cool:

Hey guys, re-watch the HD trailer with that in mind and tell me what you think? Personally, that’s what I expect. :)

Inhert May 15, 2006 07:37 PM
well the first time i saw the trailer I thought it would be something like that^^ and I think it's a very good idea, like you havea limitied of time to enter your actions or like every action take a number of AP and you can enter a combo that is in limit of your current AP somehting like that XD

Spatula May 15, 2006 07:56 PM
If you notice the AP meter seems to be fluctuating quite a bit, but it seems our heroine doesn't take any damage, as reflected by her HP indicator.
Perhaps it's a "preset" amount of command you can input as your AP gets eaten up by your actions, and then after that it's the enemies turn. Although that's a hell of a lot of enemies to take their turns though. Just looking at the radar at the top left hand corner indicates it's a 10 to 1 fight, although she seems to be cutting and blowing them away easily enough.
