Well, on the other hand, there are giant mechanical airships But yes, it's definately more medieval than FFX's modernity.

And yet, in the world of Ivalice (from FFT anyways), airships are ancient history, so it's almost like pre-medieval.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

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.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Er? I assumed that it was just confirming that it's not a game where you only control one character. That there will be, in fact, multiple characters in your party as per usual in FF titles.

How ya doing, buddy?

Awesome Opening with a quote from Shakespeare, good move~ I like what's being shown so far, even if it's still concept CG.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Kinda reminds me of Seifer a bit, what with the jacket (and beanie, from his KH2 appearance) Which is not bad, because he was an awesome character.

Summon looks awesome too Looks kind of technology-infused almost!

FELIPE NO

In the main FFXIII game, the world is split into two parts: Cocoon and Pulse. Cocoon is a space colony that houses a few million people. Pulse is everything outside of it.

For the people of Cocoon, Pulse is a frightening place. Those who come into contact with it are believed to be elements of a plot to invade Cocoon and are banished from the protections of the Cocoon realm by the "holy" government and its army. The original E3 trailer depicted a group of people who seemed to be confined on a train. These people had come into contact with Pulse and were being quarantined.

Cocoon is protected by crystals. This may not necessarily be the case for the rest of the games in the Fabula Nova Crystalis series, but the crystals in FFXIII are more than just shiny stones with magic abilities. They have the ability to create real life objects. They make life easy for people in Cocoon by creating machines and living creatures.

The relationship between Cocoon and Pulse can be thought of as this, according to director Motome Toriyama. First, there was Pulse, a dangerous world where people reside under the fear of monster attack. Cocoon was made when the crystals considered what would be an appropriate living space for people forced to reside in the world of Pulse.

As mentioned in our writeup on the Jump trailer, the female character who is assumed to be FFXIII's main character is known as Lightning, although that's not her real name. A battle expert with mastery of gun, sword, hand-to-hand, and magic based combat, Lightning knows little about herself. In fact, she's not even sure of her real name, and Toriyama says that we should look forward to finding out the reason for this as part of the storyline. Lighting was once a high ranking official in an organization of some form. Now, according to the prologue that kicks off the trailer, she's been selected as an enemy to all of man kind and will bring destruction to the world.

The trailer also served as the debut of a second character, a blonde-haired guy who speeds in on a motorcycle as Lightning finds herself surrounded by government troops. While the magazine doesn't provide any details on this character, it does provide some surprises about his motorcycle. Famitsu reveals that the bike is a transformed version of Shiva, the water-based summon spell that makes a brief appearance in the Jump trailer. In FFXIII, Shiva takes the form of a sister pair, and both sisters are made up of bike parts, complete with a wheel behind the head. Toriyama wouldn't spill the details, but hinted that you might be able to ride the transformed Shiva in battle, in addition to using it as a means of transportation when outside of battle.
Final Fantasy Transformers confirmed?

It kind of lends some light to the theory that miss Lightning can turn into Ixion, due to the logo's depiction. Craziness... I want to see more of this in motion.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
