New Final Fantasy Versus XIII trailer

Check out a new trailer for Final Fantasy Versus XIII.

[redwolf]

this is the real deal

[Cyrax_87]

I like how you can use the environment in battle to your advantage, game's looking great so far.

[blitz0623]

Nice... reminds me of Kingdom Hearts and Crisis Core combined. Graphics are... incredible.

But the truth is everything we see here is similar to what we saw in XIII until the first review came in and talked about linearity. I hope they release sometime in the future a trailer that guarantees this won't be linear and all the stuff that made XIII terrible

[FarEastOrient]

Now this looks like a Final Fantasy Game! Bring back the power of Square Soft, Square Enix we know you have some where hidden.

[Dragun619]

Holy sheit, Finally, some new Footage and gameplay for Versus XIII. If I was there at the event, I would have of clapped the hell out this at the end of the trailer especially since I feel that SE's quality has dropped a lot since it's PS1&2 days. It actually looked like a Final Fantasy game that looked epic and one that I can imagine myself enjoying.

Now where's the release date?

[midgard227]

square-soft is left sleeping remnant inside tetsuya nomura, and with this game the beast is awakening from its long slumber!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ff13zero, verus and 13-2 I CANNOT WAIT!

[badz149]

looks good and reminds me a lot of KH! as long as it's not a corridor RPG, I think I'm in. I'll look close into this until release and hope that is will deliver! this year hopefully

[ComboBreaker]

I remembered, playin FF8, half of the fun comes from seeing the incredible FMV.

But, holy sh*t!!! That's some incredible FMV in Versus! It's unlike the FMV in 13. 13 didn't wow me like at all.

Modern day Japan-like city. Badass bosses. Badass characters. Kingdom Heart like gameplay. This is going to be the sh*t.

[Bhai]

rigid body furniture realistic behaviour DAMN man, and interactive water physics(watch ripples generating)... hurray!!!

[ALFAxD_CENTAURO]

Nomura later commented, in an interview conducted via Twitter, that players will be able to control an airship around the world map.

The game will feature large open fields which allow players to walk through almost anything on the field apart from the mountains. Nomura has also mentioned that the fields are truly vast and that it was very far to traverse from one end to another;[12] thus, to facilitate easy navigation, the game will feature the return of vehicles such as an airship[13] as well as a car, allowing players to easily traverse the large fields.[12]

Battles will take place in real-time environments using all regions of the field, from up high buildings to down low streets. Nomura said that the game will feature battles that take place in areas with great differences in height, as shown in the trailer, and the players will have to fight using the full environment. This means fighting what's in front, as well as above and below (vertical battles).[14]

One of the trailers show Noctis selecting from a number of different weapons to defeat the enemy soldiers in front of him. The various weapons in the game will have different methods of attack, and some will even be usable as shields to go along with Noctis's crystal power. Weapons will have some sort of customization element as well. The trailer also showed Noctis warping around killing enemies. Nomura explained that players won't be able to warp freely to every spot but will be able to warp to the location where the sword is placed. This is one area that is being tested on so it's a matter of time to see if this all makes it into the final product. Summon beasts are in the game and will have to be defeated to be used. Nomura has also said that the game will have Sixaxis support but has given no specifics about it

[guitarded77]

So we know there are towns, open map, airships, etc. but does anyone know if there is any info on NPCs to talk to and get side quests from and if there will be store fronts to make purchases in the towns (unlike the save point storefront in 13). Just curious... I haven't heard anything.

[SasanovaS1987]

i....am impressed.

[ThanatosDMC]

Finally a true FF game... unless we get SE shafted again.

[rockleex]

Can I say inspired by Uncharted 2 during some of those gameplay sequences?

By the way, the FMV looks... so... REAL!!! @_@

[Denethor_II]

ThanatosDMC
"Finally a true FF game... unless we get SE shafted again. "

Lets hope SE lube up first because that would be one hell of a shafting.

[DORMIN]

That was spectacular! Why is this called 13-VS? This should be FF15.

I got the same chills from this video from when I first saw the FF7 trailer

[HolyOrangeCows]

WOAH!!! ....it actually HAS combat now :P
As opposed to semi-interactive cutscenes.

[fossilfern]

I just jizzed

[deafwing]

SE can only go wrong now; the path is righteous so far.

[Whitefox789]

@blitz0623

Don't you remember the other trailer that came out? That showed Noctis walking around Jumping and then he fought the Behmoth? In Famitsu they had a FAQ with Nomura where he said, "If you can see it, you can walk to it." Not to mention he said their will be a world map with vehicles and airships.

[doa766]

let's hope it stays PS3 exclusive, the notion of a 360 version gimping down this game is almost blaphemy

[Cloudberry]

.
s i c k . . .

[Xwow2008]

YH THATS WHAT JPRG GAMERS WERE WAITING FOR...tatsuya noumra FTW.
The GFX,the music and Gameplay all just WOW.

[Simon_Brezhnev]

This is now my most anticipated game. I love this damn trailer cant wait for a HD version. This trailer makes FF13-2 looks absolutely stupid.

[clank543]

Its too bad it has 13 in the title. They should have just called it FF Versus or FF Versus Reality or something.

[PHOSADRA]

I bet they're saying some pretty Epic stuff while they're fighting O.O

[40cal]

Hell yeah that was sick. This is how you do a game for your fans.

[GiggMan]

I asked myself the same question. A FFv13 trailer out of nowhere today...

[crxss]

Game's going to be so effing amazing! Can't wait!!

[arika]

Simply amazing! I was blown away by that clip! This is the game that will bring back Square Enix on the map of greatness!

[karl]

i really hope for that..

if they succeed that will show them what dedication and quality can do for them

and not all those rushout products that they have been releasing lately

now.. the graphics.. just wow!!!! that scene with stella look so much better than the last time we saw it...

and the clothes .. damn it looks fantastic, the explotions are amazing aswell

[Rage_S90]

Game of The Year

[tablav]

I agree...but what year?

[FarEastOrient]

Release date December 21 2012 ^_^ lol

[Commander_TK]

@FarEastOrient

I guess I have to beat it b4 we all die then.

[DigitalAnalog]

What happened was, Nomrua dropped development as soon as it was slated to be multiplat. It was originally intended to be an open-world game to begin with and since this game is run under him, we can be rest assured all promises on FFXIII should be applied here.

-End of line

[Otheros00]

Nomura only design the characters for xiii. He was never in charge of xiii but versus xiii.

[RedDead]

Interpreting the Forest bit where the kid runs up to his dad, must be Noctis Almost dying, that's what they have oto do to get powers, his dad might have put him in that state :)

Also at the end, the two old men, the kings assassination, Noctis dad dies ;)

Noct looks Very japanese now too

[Clarence]

My god if this game comes out this year! I hope M$ has something up their sleeve. Sony is definitely not playing around.

[Crystallis]

I think they will release it late this year in Japan and summer in the states in 2012 hopefully.

By the way did you see when they arrived at the toll booth? I know its CG but it looked damn like real life. I need this game now.

[Myze]

Obviously it could be out the window now, but they stated a while (long while now) back that the game would get a worldwide release date. Hopefully that will still hold true, and hopefully by the end of this year.

Anyway, glad to see they have been working, because the game looks great in graphics, intensity and size. Also, the gameplay looks to be incredibly varied, which is a nice touch (as long as it all works well).

[Crystallis]

Now this is a true Final Fantasy from what i'm seeing so far.

[doG_beLIEfs]

Ladies and gentlemen....Tetsuya Nomura and Sony presents you the Final Fantasy by the PS3, of the PS3, and FOR the PS3.

If this does not tell you that FF13 was dumbed down considerably for the 360....then there is no hope for you.

Speechless

[baodeus]

so what happen if this go multiplatform? Would you take back your word? And i don't think you have any clue of what available on x360 to make such comment. Haven't u learn anything from FF13? You might jump off the roof or something if that does happen. Control yourself man, jeez.

Games look good though, hopefully we get to see more.

[MariaHelFutura]

That`s one of the best thing I`ve ever seen in my life. This has potential to be my favorite RPG of all time.

[Stempel]

*nerdgasm*

[Eyeco]

the graphics in that pre rendered scene were AMAZING!!!

[yoshiro]

want want want want.
looks incredible ... I want to see more soon

[fatstarr]

DAY 1 Exclusive.
hopefully SE wont eff it up.
but that might be wishing for too much

[iamtehpwn]

Look at the scene where Noctis and Stella are talking. This is confirmed Real time as we've seen this trailer before in real time. Compare this to the original trailer.

The original was on par with Final Fantasy XIII. But the graphics now are outstanding. Look at the quality of the skin and hair, and the beautiful Lighting. Miles beyond XIII and the original Versus XIII real time showing. Not to mention, Nomura confirmed, what we're seeing is an older build before major graphics update! This is only possible on PS3.

[gam3fr33k]

seriously? why are they even bothering putting resources into ff13-2? what's worse is 13-2 is coming out this year instead of this...year's still early though, hopefully we get a release date

[Prototype]

Look its L from Death Note, and hes still alive :O

I'm amped to play this now, this is how 13 should have been, day 1 for me

[CryWolf]

Now! this is what I call a Final Fantasy game why couldn't FFXIII be like this the real NEXT-GEN Final Fantasy experience.

[garos82]

video not working for me. anyone can help please?

tried a variety of browsers but it keeps showing me on the you tube link
"this video contains content from square enix, who has blocked it on copyright grounds"

this so bloody annoying its a f***en TRAILER to a game im considering to buy how the hell is that breaching copyright?

[fanboi hater]

And this is why I love Nomura.
KH gameplay ftw

[visualb]

im no FF fan

but this wowed me

day one if it turns out as good as I hope it does.

[showtimefolks]

real time battle system
open world
hopefully great story
great graphics

sold

[dkblackhawk50]

I think Japan just woke up today...so many videos >.>

[redDevil87]

Maybe the JPRG genre just got hit by a shot of adrenaline. Hopefully this is one of many others to come.

5:04 SUMMON OPTION!!!

[infamous-butcher]

This looks nothing like a JRPG. It looks more like a DMC.

[Zorda2097]

Well if it is even a little bit like DMC then it helps us get over DMC5 :)

[blackpanther25]

obviously someone here hasn't played kingdom hearts or crisis core cause it looks exactly like those two games combined

[Snake-eater]

the gameplay clip looks amazing unlike any other FF game

[PirateThom]

This looks.... awesome.

[Ashriel]

Holy Shit! O_O

[maverick40]

BOOOOOOM!!!!This is what we wanted!

[Sitris]

WOW!!!! GIVE ME MORE!!!!!

Can't wait, so much awesome FF news today! YAY!

[ForzaGT]

oh my fcking god, that is AWESOME !!!

[xgatz]

dammmmnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn nnnnnn

[RedDead]

Dammit, graphics look great, especially since it's at that stage(or so they say) completely unpolished. May I say Stella looks quite a bit sexier than before. Gameplay is impressive finally. Love the way it's all action too.

Lol at names, Gladmolus, and Ignis hahaha

didn't think Noctis would have such a deep voice

[Michael-Jackson]

Looks amazing! Finally real gameplay.

I can't say that I'm surprised with the 3rd person shooting mechanic that was added.

[SnakeMustDie]

Versus > FFXIII-2. Versus' gameplay is what Dragon Age should have been. Intense and epic fights with a bit of spellcasting and strategy. Also, it looks like it also plays like DA since you can control your teammates in realtime like that shotgun guy aiming.

We can all agree that Versus is miles better than XIII and XIII-2.

[Neckbear]

I don't even like Final Fantasy, but holy fuck, not even *I* can deny that it doesn't looks freakin' awesome.

At least gameplay-wise. Kingdom Hearts: Grimdark Uncharted Edition? COUNT ME IN!

[Troll-without-Bridge]

So... square enx sucks hum?

In your face bitches =p

[MaideninBlack]

SE sucks. Nomura owns!

[Troll-without-Bridge]

Yes, saying that he is doing the game alone is a very smart thing to do.

Honestly, get real.

[Da One]

He and his team KH Team have practically been what's keeping the FF brand alive.

Dissidia.....He also pushed square to make the sequal
Dissidia 012 see above
KH series
CC:FFVII
TWEWY....highest rated game square has created this gen

Nomura/Team KH has constantly gotten pulled away from Versus, one year during a point of FFXIII development, that means one year of no Versus development.

:( Not like SE will pull people away from there other projects to help Team KH with Versus

[iamtehpwn]

@Da one
Nomura is also the one that pushed Versus XIII to stay PS3 exclusive---thank GOD.

[PshycoNinja]

@Da One

That's what pisses me off. Nomura and his team go out of their way and help other teams at square so they can get games out quicker which in turn delays Versus XIII, but the other teams won't help out Nomura and the KH Team cause they are "busy" working on a sequal to one of the worst Final Fantasy's. The XIII team are a bunch of self serving bastards that cant even take time out to help move along Versus XIII development.

Hey Square here's an idea why don't you finish Versus and Type-0(Agito) before anouncing another terrible FFXII game. I think people will be more than happy to wait for XIII-2 while you finish up Versus XIII.

[MajestieBeast]

Looks very good they should focus getting this game finished instead of working on ff13-1.5

[Phusion8]

I'm pretty sure it's a different team working on XIII-2

[Shane Kim]

I really liked FF13, but this seems to be the real sh!t. Can't wait.

[Hellsvacancy]

I was thinkin on buyin FF13 after i finish White Knight Chronicles, i was very critical of FF13 when i FIRST saw it (not when it went multiplat) it looked FAAAAR to girlie for my likin, well, the characters in WKC are really girlie so i shouldnt hav a problem with FF13, ive seen it mega cheap aswel so ill probably pick it up weekend

[PshycoNinja]

When they announced XIII and Versus XIII together I said the same thing. Plus Nomura was working on Versus, the very guy that made one of my favorite series of all time, Kingdom Hearts. When XIII went multi I didnt care because I didnt really want it. I am still suprised that Versus hasn't come out yet. I am way more pumped for this game than anything else in the XIII series.

[DigitalAnalog]

Don't buy WKC. It's rumored that WKCII would come with the original game in itself.

-End of Line

[Serinous]

any translations? haha looks awesome

[ApexHell]

oh my god!!!!!!

[plb]

woah..I WANT NOW!

[redDevil87]

Game looks sik, soundtrack sounds amazing.

[McLuvn]

Redemption.

[mrmikew2018]

All we need now is an release date. Please Square, please confirm this title is coming out this year.

[nix]

good. but looks very cut-and-paste thingy. specially the missing dialogues. why can't they just piece together a nice story mode trailer (like the KZ3 one) showing gameplay, if possible, which would have made the trailer look even more epic. urm.. like the previous one.

having said that, i'm obviously getting the game.

EDIT: @Kluv (below): let's hope so. at least should have separated the gameplay and the CG. at least.

[Kluv]

The thing is, those uber-epic hollywood style trailers aren't that big in Japan, alot of their trailers are like that, cut and paste with very random sequences. I'm sure when they release the first american official trailer they will make it more streamlined for us.

[jaosobno]

Fucking brilliant!

[infamous-butcher]

Realy?? Brilliant?? Did I just watch a different video than everyone else? The only thing I seen was a hack n' slash. WTF happened to the battle system. I thought this was ment to be a Final Fantasy game not a DMC game.

I was looking forward to seeing a more traditional FF game but will I have to get that from FF XIII-2? Like FFS SE ever since XIII came out vs-XIII was ment to be the real FF XIII but then you screw it up like you did XIII.

[jaosobno]

"Did I just watch a different video than everyone else?"

Apparently you have. I saw a brilliant, evolved game as most people did.

Battle system was never the thing that made FF games special. What made it special was the very game world, the way it was presented to players, and the (epic) story it told us.

If the only thing you were looking for was more of the same, I suggest you play FFXIII (or as I like to call it Neutered Fantasy XIII.

[silvacrest]

if you still, (and i mean this with emphasis) STILL want turn based combat stick to the game in your avatar and its sequel

versus is an evolution to the traditional RPG combat system that i welcome, turn based combat had its time in the sun, time to move on

the tales series has gone the action route with positive results so again, i welcome this....looks awesome

[infamous-butcher]

"Brilliant evolved game"

**Visually brilliant hack and slash game that resembls nothing of a Final Famtasy game.**

Fixed that for you there.

The battle system was still a part of FF that made it different from the RPG's of the west, But now thats gone. Its just a hack and slash.

BTW XIII was not more of the same in FF. It was a watered down FF game from the get go.

I didnt see a Final Fantasy game, I saw a DMC/Bayoneta/GoW/Castlevania there.

[infamous-butcher]

You seem to think I love XIII. I dont. I havnt changed my avitar since I made an account. Before XIII was revealed to be a watered down FF game.
Yea so what if I want a variation of the turn based battle system or the ATB system. I would rather have that than have a shitty hack and slash battle system.

[iMaim]

I recall they said that the gameplay is more reminiscent to the Kingdom Heart series years ago. It was never meant to play out with an ATB bar or some sort.

[Viper7]

But I like hack and slash games, and this is a spinoff.
After playing trough KH2 I had hoped for a similar game in full Final fantasy setting and... Versus seems to be just that!

KH2 with all those special form and limit breaks where really nice. Too bad KH2 was a bit too easy.

[DeathMetal1474]

it's a PS3 exclusive the fanboys on here will say it looks better than any game ever even if it sucks.

[Optical_Matrix]

Anyone else get a cinematic vibe from the battles and everything. There's a LOT going on on screen and the transitions from gameplay to cutscenes and from cutscenes to gameplay seems smooth. This! Is the kind of Final Fantasy game I've been expecting of this generation. FFXIII was almost there, but lacked things. Can't wait for this and XIII-2!

Also the graphics are superb. And the game is probably not out until 2012 so a lot of polish can be done between now and then I'm sure. Excitement!

[Elda]

Looking good!!! Final Fantasy action style......grand & epic!!

[DigitalAnalog]

"It pisses me off knowing THIS is the guy that was originally supposed to oversee the development of FFXIII".

The trailer...

justified everything. PERIOD.

-End of line

[Arnagrim]

It's like Kingdom Hearts; but for adults.
Hopefully, unlike Kingdom Hearts, they can give the game a plot that can remain consistent.

[rdgneoz3]

Hoping they have the option for the original voice actors and not just dubbed only. Thought I recognized a bunch of voices from various animes and such.

[Eamon]

In Japan, voice actors are kinda like celebrities because the anime industry is bigger than their movie industry really.

[AllroundGamer]

well this was nice, but i would still rather see a FF7 remake with turnbase battles :(

[specialguest]

Yeah, I watached it again since the last time I first saw it about 4 years ago. That tech demo was bitter-sweet, because it showed us how a FF7 remake could look like, yet it was just a huge tease which set forth several years of false hope.

[Lionalliance]

OH FUCK YEAH!!
The gameplay is amazing!!

[Killzoned]

OMFG!! Is Man Like Killzoned Stilll Dreaming!! Boyy!! I am GLAD TO OWN A PS3

[Vinushka]

OMFG!! This game looks amazing! Oh my, I need a lie down.

[Rybnik]

The battle footage was toned down from teh original 2006 imaging....but was just about on par with what we (thought) FFXIII was going to look like...so overall, win I think!

[TheObserver]

O_O

I am awed. This simple trailer makes FFXIII seems rather lacking, just imagine the whole game. Nomura is definitely Square Enix final hope for redemption.

[silvacrest]

and no turn based gameplay in sight and the setting is pretty unique for a FF game, all modern buildings etc

looks more like a action RPG then a typical FF game which is a nice change

now just give us a release date SE....

[YourFlyness]

Lol the new Cid is a Bad ass!

[Redempteur]

Woah impressed !!

[Arnagrim]

Also, Square Enix is getting WAAAAYYYY too good at CGI. That first minute had pretty much perfect modeling on the faces, and the city looked perfect. I mean, XIII was pretty, but it had the Oblivion effect where everything was overly saturated and colorful.

[XeNoStRatoS]

Awesome news. Have hope again for a good FF this generation and appreciate exclusivity to the PS3 due to a shorter dev cycle and a more polished / fitted game.

But S E give em' voices!!!!! It's so outdated to read through all dialogues!

[SeanScythe]

For PLAYSTATION 3! Epicness

[ULTIMATE_REVENGE]

The CGI looks amazing, but the real-time graphics look a bit better than FF13. I hope what Nomura said is true and that this is an old build.

The field scene in this trailer eats FF13 up for breakfast because FF13 had flat fields lol.

[abcd]

Amazing graphics and cutscenes but....
No turn based combat ??? This is the real FF ???
A real FF was, is and will be a turn-based game.

And the combat system is like Kingdom Hearts combat system. So disappointing.

[Eternus]

Stop living in the past. It's time to move on.

[x5exotic]

turn based sucks ass....whats the point ,,no action at all ,,

[HelghastKid]

turn based doesnt suck in the least and takes a lot of skill. However abcd, if you were following the game you would know that Nomura said its battle system would be similar to KH series. I cant wait personally

[Lirky]

Honestly ff7 does not need a re-make since ffxiii versus maybe better.

It uses in-game ff7 elements like ff7 airships,world map,nice battle scenary.

erm.. also its cool how u can use other characters in third person view, And that knighted character seems to be lightning maybe from ffxiii like maybe in ffxiii-2 she goes bad and appears in ffxiii versus in that one part.

When she jumped onto the sky scraper. Also the battling reminds me of dissidia ff a tiny bit.

[Epicor]

I'm kinda dissapointed that it's hack'n'slash but then again, it looks frickin awesome!!! Imo FF should be 100% turn based but even so I still think that being 100% real time (hack'n'slash) is the second best option. Everything between that (FFXII and FFXIII) just suck donkey balls.

This game really gives me now hope when it comes to the future of the franchise. Final Fantasy FFv13 looks mature, dark, cool, jaw dropping and it sounds absolutelu stunning! Even the protagonist looks cool (even being a bit emo)!!! I cannot wait!!! My only fear is that the gameplay might be too repetitive and dull. Hope that's not the case.

[rebirthofcaos]

well it seems they selected carefully the words at the end just ps3, not only on ps3 or only on ps3 worldwide.

[Ludakriss]

I was either going into a coma or just mild-faint. Too much energy in me right now. Oh...did you see how amazing a dynamic everything was...oh there it comes again...

[x5exotic]

FUCKING SLOW INTERNETT Cmon cmon cmon!!

[jneul]

omg the real final fantasy returns, look at it and tell me what you see here, it definitely feels like the ff we all have been waiting for, and i love how you get to control a mech, how awesome is that!!

[silkrevolver]

Final. Fucking. Fantasy.

[XeNoStRatoS]

Maybe the late excuse of SE for the average quality they delivered until now.

[mrmikew2018]

Wow, I hope this game comes out this year.

[Lamarthedancer]

God it looks amazing, I don't care that it hasn't got turn based elements games have to evolve some way...better then FF13 button mashing.

It's sad to see it named 13-Versus. I think I'm the only one who dosen't want it related to 13 in anyway. FF13 is getting a sequel so I don't understand why they don't make this FF15

[Prcko]

Ps3 power!!!

[Otheros00]

Setsuna from 00 gundam vioces noctis I think.
The combat is too fast to see.

[Otheros00]

I mean Ignus not noctis.

[Greek God]

AAAHHAHA ONLY ON PS3

[blackpanther25]

I always thought Nomura-san did a lot with the kingdom hearts series. I'm not a fan of playing Disney characters but the gameplay was good and the story was unbelievable.

From day one i always thought what if they made a kingdom hearts hearts game with the Disney characters and now i am seeing that come to life

[Blackcanary]

You know what i just saw the grown up version of Kingdom hearts that was so epic hahaha. bring on FF 13 vs 13 and then bring on the kingdom hearts woot.

[DenyTheFacts]

It looks like crap TBH.. Action RPG is disgusting.. How can people compare XIII to this?
BTW, this has the same graphics that XIII has so don't act like this game has better visuals because its on the PS3.. Hypocrites

[Goeres]

Holy moly, you've seen a low resolution trailer and you're comparing it already? Also, FF13 got GREAT graphics, noone has said anything else. But it's true that one version of the game got lower resolution..

[x5exotic]

the vid isnt HD to begin with,,and no not cuz its exclusive ur confusing FF with uncharted..

[muttonface]

Looks interesting enough. So long as you're not running in a straight line the entire game then this could be a pretty spectacular game.

[iMaim]

The CGI at the beginning was insane. It looked like real life actors.
The real-time footage looked dated.

[FreydaWright]

Agreed. They definitely improved the CGI.

[SuperStrokey1123]

Not even close to real life but still very very impressive i do agree. Real time was hard to judge though given the poor quality of the trailer.

[Mr_Luke]

Ok, this really looks promising. I don't want to say extra things about it, since i got very bad surprises from SE. But... i repeat, this looks promising O_o

[Godmars290]

Never knew eating your own words would taste so sweet...

But they're still not off the hook. Not I've had a chance to play the game.

[Esena]

Umm....yes...please!

[White-Sharingan]

I think I have blue balls...

[SuperStrokey1123]

Looks pretty if nothing else. Is it supposed to be an action game? Looks like that to me.

[TheTruth89]

HOLY SH!T the forest map look awesome!

EDIT:

SUMMON!?!? SUMMON!?!?!? IT'S THAT WHAT I JUST SEE?!?!?

epic, ff 7 style FTW

[Quietpower10]

Versus XIII gameplay reminds me of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII.

[Olvipoika]

looking very promising.... if they just share the release date ... mayby e3 011 they tell ,mayby

[The_Great_D]

A step in the RIGHT DIRECTION for square. im getting it day one, since its a ps3 exclusive. that garbage ffXIII-2 will NOT be purchased. i dont share my ps3 games with trash 360.

[jalen247]

This is the one guys!

Looks action packed...action RPG...FTW

[chidori666]

OPEN WORLD BATLES!

already better than ff13 crap linear game.

[m2345]

HOLY MOSES. O-O

finally, some new footage! i've been waiting forever for this. combat looks awesome.

in nomura we trust.

[memphis2]

i believe i just wet my pants...so much gameplay footage. holy cow!!!! now want this game this year! AMAZING!!!

[-Gespenst-]

W-W-W-Wow!!! After this conference i'm pretty sure SE have got their heads back in the game. This game looks mental!! Very, very excited. I just want to let out a huge squeal of excitement right now!!

[tdinc]

"Only on Playstation"............W ORD!

[thawind]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PS3 EXCLUSIVE BABY

[turgore]

I just jizzed a little. As long as it won't be linear like FF13 it will be amazing. IS it coming out this year ?

[Phusion8]

They wasted 2 minutes of that trailer... sigh....

anyways... great stuff, I guess we all can't wait...

Hopefully the equipment system will be something fresh and close to Materia from 7!

[KillingAllFanboys]

I know that everyone happy just like me XD I am like going crazy, but what about an release date? 0_0 just curious

So who was it now that said squareenix can't make games?

*puts shades on

YEEEEAAHHHH

[Dante112]

Wow, that was pretty cool. Definitely getting this.

[Ascalon94]

can't wait for the HD version and I hope this game has a release of atleast spring 2012. This trailer will hold me off for now. I love that the gameplay is like Crisis Core, that game is a classic. I think this game will be the first FF/JRPG I have bought in a while besides Demon's Souls. Also did anyone notice that Noctis looks somewhat like one of the singers of the Italian band Sonohra?

[Hozi89]

LOL...I just re-watched this and at the very beginning it sounds like the man is saying "Noctis Orgy"

I just had to get that out, but this game looks so awesome. Can't wait!

[Obama]

The power of the ps3. No wonder it's exclusive.

[Dellis]

Looks to good to be true, no release date yet= expect it

in 2014

[zackacloud]

It about voice actor that mean the late of 2011 for japan and April for ENG release

[RAVEN81]

as long as i can play as all of the characters and summon all my summon when i want to ill buy this one

[nnotdead]

aaahhh!!! still at work so i can't view the video. the way all you are talking i can't wait to get home.

[zackacloud]

Final fantasy xiii have better graphics(namura said it) but the reason that make versus xiii look amazing and better it the environment it real world with some of high techs it must buy game will erase the fail of xiii and xiv

[AnonUser5555]

I don't know guys. I want to be excited. I really do. But I was excited by the FFXIII trailers.

Looks promising...but I don't want to get my hopes up. I would rather be pleasantly surprised than immensely disappointed.

[Capt-FuzzyPants]

Soundtrack and everything else about this is going to be great. Nomura is the next Sakaguchi and Yoko Shimomura is the next Nobuo Uematsu.

This game is going to be awesome with that dragoon. That guy might trump kain highwind.

[overthatop]

It looks like kingdom hearts to me lmao

[overthatop]

*Combat wise

[Freezer1612]

looks fine. But why do they always have to fuck up the battle system. Either stay with the original japano combat system or do a proper action adventure combat system like in Bayonetta or GoW 3. That would be so great. Not this MMORPG shit with the numbers flashing up when you hit someone to show you the amount of damage your opponent got. I do not say they completely fucked it up but they shouldn't always set the limits so low.

[kewlkat007]

This looks good...def buy this game. More of an Action type game though.

What's up with Square and the EMO type looking men....sheesh

[Ps_alm3k]

I've come to realize something alot of people does not. It is a fact that girls don't like characters such as cratos, or old snake. They like handsome young mens, it is the way media set it up, especially in asia. I would say most of it is for the main stream majorities. Alot of gamers don't mind, but a lot of non gamers will be able to say, " Attractive character = attractive game. I guess?

[yogaflame]

Nomura has a lot of pride and he wants quality than money but to bad he works for a Sqaure who is payed a lot of buck. We cannot do anything about it but wish that it will not be downgraded or at elast time exclusive and no downgrades. I really wish that if it will come out for Xbox360(Nomura cannot do anything about it even if he does not like that since Ms pays Square a lot) it will not be downgraded just like what happened to FF13 which is now considered to worse FF ever. A lot of graphical features where cut and also game features.

[Kon]

This isn't FF anymore. Where are the turn-based fights??

[BigDollarZoe954]

OMFG i cant wait for this SE Knew You Wouldn't let me down

[stuntman_mike]

as Square enix fmv get better i think thier games are suffering. it looks good and im glad they are using the crisis core real time fighting, but it looks like your just being lead down one long corridor of baddies after the other. I know its to early yet to say but i get the feeling this wont be too different from 13 (which was ok not brilliant).

one thing you can count on with square is amazing FMV.

[FreydaWright]

Nomura has already stated that this is a seamless and open world, and that it would take hours to traverse from one end to the other. Think of it as Fallout, or Oblivion, but on a much larger scale. You can walk to everything you see, except past the mountains.

omg....omg

[PHOEBUS]

I hope they render stunning magic attacks. I always thought FF9 had the best spell animations and I think we all this new technology, they can really make some "wow" moments during battles with all the spells.

Anyway, I think this game looks spectacular. The CG movie scenes are absolutely stunning, but I get worried with Square's heavy use of CG. I rather they make the cut scenes utilizing the game's real-time graphics, then pre-rendered CGI - for continuity reasons, but still looks magnificent regardless.

[DEagle-izer]

I am happy. I just might be able to die in peace.
PS3 owners finally get some more mature exclusive JRPGs; A huge deficit in the PS3's western library.

ONLY ON PS3!

[N4OGs]

ff 13 and 13 2 is that baby crap. This is mafia, knock around guys, fast and the furios, fight club ff versus 13

[prettyboy1]

wow its like kh for the ps3.consider me excited

[TheLastGuardian2010]

That CGI :O

Honestly, some of the best CGI i've even seen. At first I wasn't sure if it was a mix of live action, and cgi because it looks practically PHOTO REALISTIC. My eye's will never look at CGI the same.

Besides that the same obviously has some ways to go. But everything in Versus looks MILES better than XIII.

Versus can't come soon enough :( !!!!!

[DIRTtheHURT]

very very nice....

[tawak]

it has been taken down already!! =(

[HungryGoku]

This will forever be a Ps3 exclusive. 360 can't handle this game call me a fanboy it's a fact :)

[Claudinho69]

i cant believe i was so impressed by a 360p video

[FreydaWright]

Exactly. Even as a sub-HD video, recorded from an online stream, it looks fantastic.

Wait until Square releases this trailer in HD, and it's guaranteed to look even 10 times better.

[tubers]

Wow, XIII-2 and this? I have no reason not to get a PS3 this 2011 xD

BTW, this looks like Kingdom Hearts "Mature Mix" LMAO.

[Enzo]

Please not be linear... Please not be linear... Please not be... Ok I'll stop :)

[Fel08]

Holy crap!!!! This looks amazing. What every Final Fantasy fan would expect. Now I can't wait for this!!!!

[ElementX]

It will end up being linear and complete crap.

[thesummerofgeorge]

Wow! Bad ass... THIS looks like a Final Fantasy game... Finally. I was as skeptical as the next guy, but this was actually worth the wait. Versus just skyrocketed to the top of my most wanted list.... As excited as I am for UC3 and KZ3, I have been going through RPG withdrawal for some time.

[Pug]

I won't get too carried away yet although the signs here do look good. I'd still like a turn based FF this generation however it looks like the KH/CC style is here to stay. I do like both KH and CC so I'm ok with the battle mechanics but I still wish for a FF7/8/10 style game this generation.

[Limitedsphere]

I would have liked to see that! Why can't i?! :(

[Claudinho69]

square probably had it removed because it wasnt officially released yet, thats why it wasnt a good quality, the official release in hd should come out soon
