What game are you looking forward to the most?

Final fantasy story

Final Fantasy XIII's story begins as something from the lower world invades the Cocoon, causing a panic. Cocoon is an air city which was created by the crystals, protected by machines. Having lived peacefully for many years, the inhabitants of Cocoon are very fearful and are afraid of everything, from outside of Cocoon, and above all what comes from the dark region. Also the operational “strange organization” are feared by the denizens of Cocoon.

The biggest concern amongst Cocoon residents is that of their home falling from the sky. People who do things that could make Cocoon fall from the sky, and people who are believed to have the ability to do such things, are deported from Cocoon. Recent contact with those from the world below, Pulse, have caused people to question one another and their ways of life. 's story begins as something from the lower world invades the Cocoon, causing a panic. Cocoon is an air city which was created by the crystals, protected by machines. Having lived peacefully for many years, the inhabitants of Cocoon are very fearful and are afraid of everything, from outside of Cocoon, and above all what comes from the dark region. Also the operational “strange organization” are feared by the denizens of Cocoon.

Due to this disturbance, the government of Cocoon have decided to exile those who show signs of coming in contact with the world of Pulse. The crystal looked for itself a woman, who should destroy this world and its inhabitants. One believes that this woman will lead the world to its fall.

Lost Odyssey.

The story seems more interesting. Plus it's a new IP, and I am ready for new.

Indeed, if Lost Odyssey can beat Final Fantasies 13th attempt on it's first then I'd be very impressed.

Director for final fantasy 1,2,4.

Executive Producer for final fantasy VIII, x, x-2, chrono cross.

Plus, I'm ready for a new JRPG that isn't a Final Fantasy. The series is getting a little old now, and the story for LO looks like it could be very interesting.

Lost Odyssey. Final Fantasy XIII's story looks like typical anime trash. At least Lost Odyssey is being penned by a renowned novelist.

I would choose Lost Odyssey as it is my most anticipated game. This is coming from a huge Final Fantasy fan, FF9 being my favorite game. Although i'm really excited for FF13 and even more for FFvs13, there is just something about the concept for LO that intrigues me more then either of them. It could be that the story in LO is being created by a famous novelist in Japan, and the art direction coming from a famous manga artist, or that it being produced and directed by the creator of Final Fantasy Hironobu Sakaguchi, and that IMO the greatest music composer ever in video games Nobuo Uematsu is doing the music. What ever it is LO seems new and exciting, and will be coming in 2007, unlike both FF's which could well be delayed until late 2008 or 2009. Can't wait!

Thats exactly why I'm not looking forward to it. Final Fantasy has gone down hill since VI. Of all the JRPGs coming out though, I'm lookin forward to Blue Dragon the most.

FFXIII definetly.

FF games have some of the best storylines ever and real good combat systems. Lost Odysey doesnt impress me as much as it is not doing anything new ith combat or how RPG'S are played. Im also ecited about White Knight Story and Blue Dragon.


FFXIII Battle system

Come on but this looks way better than Lost Odyssey

You have no idea how Lost Odyssey's battle system will be. We saw an alpha-stage demo of a game more than a year from launch. Name one game that was anything more than a skeleton fifteen months before its launch.

:lol: Can't you tell the difference between a pre-scripted trailer and a LIVE DEMO? Did Square-Enix give a one-hour demo to the start of FFXIII that we don't know about?

Until I see the final combat system in Lost Odyssey (assuming it doesn't suck), my vote goes to FFXIII.

FF has gotten dry since FF IX+

Lost Odyssey has potential and I think it will be great.

I cant see how people complain about battle system, FFXII's battle system was just as boring as turn based.

Everything I've seen from LO so far makes it look like it's going to be a boring game. Quit showing dark CGI cutscene's and make with some interesting gameplay. Thanks.

FFXIII most definitely.

Well, VI is my favorite but VII and VIII werent that bad. But Squaresoft's best game is still Chrono Trigger and that decimates FF in every single way.

I'm more interested in the direction that FFXIII is taking. It seems as if they will be reinventing the genre once again. Lost Odessey looks like any typical JRPG at this point. I still want to play it but it doesn't appear to be any different than the dozens of other RPG's I've played at this point. Even so, if done correctly it'll probably still be my favorite on the 360.

It is not only that Lost Odyssey looks far better than FF13, nor the fact that has underwater levels and amazing art so far, or the partly real time battle system, the best part is that it is SO EPIC, reminds me strongly of FF9 and FF7 to a lesser extend, really what i expected to come back in FF series, and as it seems never will, since FF13 is too high tech unfortunatly

FFXIII. Hironobu Sakaguchi went down hill. He was good in the old days. But he's obvious getting too old; his last game blue dragon flop big time. Poor story, poor characters development, wasn't epic. That crap scored an 8.5 from oxm. Sakaguchi shouldn't had retired from square-enix, he should of had retired from the gaming industry.

I much rather play White Knight Story than LO or FFXIII.



And for a second i thought you were talking about FFXIII VERSUS.



But why compare the two?  They're not close to their release dates, and no one has even played FFXIII.

In terms of success than FF will be the clear winner. When it actually comes down to the final product, no one really knows which game will be better.

All I know is that Lost Odyssey is DEFINITELY getting the better pedigree of developers, writers, and artists. As long as the programmers can create a game that lives up to the quality of the designers' intentions, LO could be one of the best JRPGs ever.

True, but why automatically assume it's gameplay when it is FAR more likely that the developers simply scripted the events in the trailer to SIMULATE their PLANNED gameplay system? Especially since they were still well over a year away from launch?

I would agree, if it weren't such a basic turn based rpg. That is clearly of major FF iinfluence(its pretty obvious why lol). Its not pushing the genre, and its not doing anything surprising rpg wise. This game has a great staff, and i expect it to be a good game. Not putting my hopes too high for this game. I just expect it to deliver a great story and some satsifying gameplay. I'm just waiting till a little closer to the release to make my judgement.

FFXIII definetly.

FF games have some of the best storylines ever and real good combat systems. Lost Odysey doesnt impress me as much as it is not doing anything new ith combat or how RPG'S are played. Im also ecited about White Knight Story and Blue Dragon.


FFXIII Battle system

Come on but this looks way better than Lost Odyssey

You do realize that isn't in-game, as where we have actual in game videos of Lost Odyssey on the internet to watch and judge.

That is in-game. :lol:

No, that's in-engine, not in-game. FFXIII hasn't been demo'ed in front of a live audience like Lost Odyssey has.

You realise a game trailer can be of gameplay? It doesn't have to be a demo.

True, but why automatically assume it's gameplay when it is FAR more likely that the developers simply scripted the events in the trailer to SIMULATE their PLANNED gameplay system? Especially since they were still well over a year away from launch?

"A collective gasp was heard in the audience when the movie went from what appeared to be pre-rendered footage to a full set of menus indicating that nearly everything we saw was made using the in-game engine." its usually fair to assume that when Square shows gameplay, thats usually how turns out. I mean its either turn-based or ATB gameplay. What they showed was plenty different from the CGI cut-scenes, and i've they have described the game mechanics over TGS and E3. Gameplay and in-engine graphics are one and the same.

I much rather play White Knight Story than LO or FFXIII.



And for a second i thought you were talking about FFXIII VERSUS.
But why compare the two? They're not close to their release dates, and no one has even played FFXIII.

In terms of success than FF will be the clear winner. When it actually comes down to the final product, no one really knows which game will be better.

Again, WHY assume that when the last footage we saw of this game is from a pre-alpha build that the designer himself said is less than 20% complete?

why assume that its pre-alpha? +the evidence for the FF influence is there, i'll show it right now "Hironobu Sakaguchi. Do you know what games he directed?

FFXIII is hardly into its development and its battle sytem looks far better
