well it does have that clasic rpg look, even thougth i own a 360 i have to say the batlles on ff13 look more exciting and the graphics look better http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKSgFwIemho
Nice sig. The reason why the gameplay looks alot more exiting, is because it was just a trailer. Not someone actually demoing the gameplay. The big turn for the ability to slow down time, this may seem strange for a turn based rpg. But the action is really fast according to famitsu, and if you don't react quick enough you miss your turn.:)
EVen if that was true. LO is using the Unreal Engine, and has pre-rendered graphics. Which means no interaction with the background enviroments, which turns into alot of invisible walls. As shown in the trailer. I mean FFXIII is just another level, the first time you watch the origianl trailer. You think the whole thing is CGi. I'e never had that affect before since the 1st MGS4 trailer.
in Lost odyssey's defense it's not finished yet. But i don't care either way, comparing it to FFXIII is just silly. with what they've shown and told us about the title squeenix have nothing to worry about.
Whats with the camera? You get like 50ft from the sometimes. I'm not too fond of the graphics either, I thought it would look more like the original trailer.

Final Fantasy XIII will also utilize pre-rendered graphics as well. You know Square-Enix cannot resist making FMV movies.
And the Final Fantasy XIII trailer, while looking good, came out last year and that game is still in the early stages of development. Nobody knows for sure when FF XIII will come out, maybe not until early 2009. There is still a lot of time between now and whenever that game comes out and the only thing we've seen from it is an impressive trailer from last year. I don't know about you, but I am wary of any game that is just a mere unplayable trailer. I'm only interested in playable demos because then the game is far enough along in development that you cannot be duped.
God those load times look terrible. Who has load times into a basic battle anymore? That just sucks. On top of that the gameplay looks horrible. Its basically a straight turned based RPG. That's horrible. I'm not trying to flame here that honstly looks bad.
lol, so this is the game that's going to give FFXIII competition, eh? Not a fanboy by any means, but Lost Oddysey doesn't look much better than FFXII in my honest opinion.
And the freakin load screen before each battle, AHHHHH! That's gonna drive gamers nutz.
Who honestly thinks we've seen enough of FFXIII to start judging it....at all?Sooshy
I haven't. That game is riding a major hype wave thanks to the E3 trailer. I'll reserve judgement until I see a playable demo of it. Right now everybody has seen a lot more from Lost Odyssey, an actual playable demo, and they are comparing it to what appears to be a trailer with very scripted fight scenes.

Thats true, but what you basically see is what the gameplay will be using an FMV. Its not like Fable or KZ2 where they show CGI, and its completly false. This game is far enough in to dev time, that they've already confirmed a release date(Spring 08) and have a demo planned for this year. The thing about FFXIII, is that it has no flaws(just wait). EVerything graphics wise is completly next-gen. It may not be a MGS4 looking game, but as far as graphics go. Its really something to look at.
Random battles needs to die a cold.... hard.... death.....
I agree. I think that's such an outdated system and it's annoying as hell, ESPECIALLY when you factor in load times. There shouldn't be any load times.

Well in those links to the demos of this game that the TC posted, you can clearly see the "Loading..." notification when you enter into battle. Hopefully they will really shorten the time it takes to get into a fight.

Why are people still going off the same TGS demo? It's already known the gameplay in that build was far from final, and shouldn't be the basis to judge the game when it finally releases

You missed the ridiculous LO vs FF thread. People said this game looked better than CGI. I'm just putting things into perspective. If most people think its less than a 9, no way it looks better than cgi.
How long ago was that demo? neways. I heard there were a few elements missing from the battle system. FFXII battlesystem was boring as heck and that game still got an overrating.
