I just received the news that my FFXII has shipped and will be arriving either tonight or tomorrow early morning ^ ^ *YAAY* Jam it back in, in the dark. |
"Rolling Demo" before the title screen:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=BkWQZhckfK4 Minor spoilers as it quickly shows glimpses of the summons and other monsters but most of all....Sakimoto's rendition of the Final Fantasy "Main Theme". There's nowhere I can't reach. ![]() |
I just love that prologue theme...I waaaant.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Can anyone actually rip the audio from that and convert it to MP3?
![]() I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? ![]() |
That was... :O
By the way, that's a remix of FFIV's Prologue. I was speaking idiomatically. |
That was a nicely executed opening introduction. It retains the Final Fantasy atmosphere by employing the all-too-familiar FFIV Prologue, as Motsy has mentioned, and gave a brief but well done scroll through the major characters and eventually the "summons" as well as monsters, and flowed seemlessly to the main menu screen.
The more I watch it, the more I'm falling in love with how the characters are portrayed in-game rather than with CG. The animations and faces appear very compelling with emotion that I must remember this is still a game. The CG done for these characters as seen through the multitude of trailers available is quite remarkable, if I may note. Watching the "hope" trailer again, we see the long dark haired warrior, Vayne, give military commands to his troops. In this CG sequence, the way that his face and hair "swing" give off that aura that he is alive. Here's a screencap to focus on what I'm trying to describe: ![]() I would almost go so far as to say that I find these characters more believable than the ones portrayed in Advent Children. This is not to say that Advent Children was not executed with equal aplomb, but the characters in FFXII appear to have a better "connection", or in other words, to seem to be more "alive". What are your thoughts? What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? ![]() - What we all do best -

Nice description Spatula, I enjoyed reading and can't wait to play this damn game. I should have it soon, very soon.
Can someone post the mp3 rip of the prologue ![]() That review on the last page hyped it up even more for me. I can't wait to play this, who cares if I can't read it ![]() FELIPE NO |
![]() What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? ![]() |
Holy shit, I keep forgetting Metal Gear comes out tomorrow. I'd hate to admit it but I'd rather have this instead. (Okay, I STILL DO want MGS3:S)...

Reason: Automerged double post.

The in-game cutscenes look great, It's almost to the point where I don't care how much CG is used. I love how this game looks.
Spatula I haven't played FFXI either, but just looking at this I know this isn't just FFXI-2. I've heard/read a lot of people saying this will be just like XI, but no way. There's nowhere I can't reach. |

The intro is absolutely fantastic! wow...
Most amazing jew boots |
Ok. That intro was fucking awesome.So well paced and edited, and the music....
I can understand the "Star Wars" comments in the earlier impressions based on the intro though, especially shots like the POV of a pilot in the fighter and the whole scale of the battle. Interesting to see the Nephicite used to create a shield over the entire city. There's nowhere I can't reach. ![]() |
So we have Star Fantasy XII =D Dark force will never win!! Can someone give me fast torretn =S? All torrent are try are like 4-5 kbps.

The intro movie is in fact the "new game" video > when playing a new game, there is another video which is totally awsome and about 5 minutes long, the editing and the music is better than the movie you're looking at, it'll probably be uploaded on the net too
![]() i've played the game for about one hour and i think people who loved Final Fantasy Tactics will love FF12... the cutscenes are reminicent of MGS, the way they are filmed and edited, etc... when whizzing around the city it seems like you really are in a city, there are TONS of people walking around, when you enter a shop it's like saturday afternoon , there are NPC looking at items to buy, the shops look like shops in fact ^^ a bit like shops in the HarryPotter movie ![]() What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
FFT rocked man. Loved the gameplay, music, strategy involved etc.
BTW, how are you guys finding the communication of what the characters are saying so far, seeing that you're playing the NTSC-Japan copy. How difficult is it to navigate around talking to people, doing stuff since it's all in Japanese? FELIPE NO ![]() - What we all do best - |
