Final Fantasy XIII Developmental Video (Real Time Footage Of The Levels)

Everyone expects superb graphics and performance from this game. Well, it seems like we won't be disappointed. Take a look at some developmental video material, showcasing the level of detail of this game. It will only get better from here on.

[jack who]

this shizz is old

[Anego Montoya FTMFW]

This is the OMG footage of the year, and it`s very very brief.

Final Fantasy 13 is going to rip competitors to shreds.

@everyone

bubble ME

Please and Thank U.

@below

i`m not hyping myself i`m hyping the game.

i get enough attention on here and in REAL life.

so, please don`t accused my of that.

i`m not a N4G points whore.

[icdedppl]

wow, this is so old. yeah, it's nice to see, but seriously, this has already been posted.

oh, and stopy hyping your own threads.

[Mainman]

The video says that you should turn on the superwhite.

But this doesn't matter because there is no content that suports the superwhite feature yet. So it's ok if you have this disabled.

[DJ]

But this needs to get approved. A lot of people have never seen this realtime footage, and it really does show how close Square-Enix is getting to CG quality gameplay.

[i_like_ff7]

wow did you see that particle effect where the sun's rays are coming through the sky? AMAZING!

[aiphanes]

It looks cool!

[jack who]

too bad they no longer useing the Engine that the footage is from anymore.

[Anego Montoya FTMFW]

go get on XBL and practice your headshots/teabagging.

let the BIG BOYS enjoy their BIG GAMES.

[Honeal2g]

this game uses the White engine if u know something otherwise please inform us ... and it has always been in developement as far as i know unless ur implying that this real time video is a engine prior to the white engine in which case i would have to say i;m sorry but i highly doubt that.

[mesh1]

[davez82]

never seen this before, if this is real time then im impressed

[Anego Montoya FTMFW]

and yes,

these are the levels you`ll be playing in.

[EZCheez]

It may be old, but it's new to me. I've never seen it before and it looks AMAZING! Thanks for the link.

[Anego Montoya FTMFW]

I was gonna PM you.

This is RIDICULOUS and everyone and their MAMA has to see this.

@counteract (below)

actually it`s about 6 months old and didn`t get the RECOGNITION it DESERVES.

[Counter_ACT]

As others have said, this is at least a year old. Who approved this? -___-

[allforcalisto]

dude you're right, and i saw it myself all that while ago. But as you can see from some of the people's comments in this thread, quite a few non-hardcore squeenix fans haven't seen the footage.

it's quite interesting how much pandemonium these trailers have caused. And to think, these trailers were deubted months and months ago in those infernal closed mega theatres. There's still a trailer or two we still havent seen.

expect the reports of the new jump festa trailers this month to be even more impressive.

[Skerj]

I haven't seen it either so it's new to me. I see Square is still sticking with Maya, and damn that's some detail.

[KingKirchner]

Hadn't seen it yet either. Can't wait for this game! I hope FF XIII makes it for Nov-Dec 08 and Versus XIII Feb-Mar 09. I think that could be fairly realistic.

[mistertwoturbo]

interesting to see that in the most recent FFXIII trailer, it shows the exact same scene. Interesting also to say that most people thought it was ALL CG. But actually looked to be mixed with in-engine cutscenes.

who knows about "in-game" but definitely "in-engine"

[WilliamRLBaker]

Old and....Just like all final fantasy's before it the real time gameplay will not Match the CGI you can just tell, doesn't look nearly as CGI amazing as the original cut scenes we we're shown.

yep the e3 ones the ones where they super imposed static menus over the top, and hp bars.

[LinuxGuru]

and stop trolling PS3 boards.

It's getting old.

Your nonsense has been in the past 4 stories I've read into.

Every time you attempt to spread your bullsh!t negativism, someone such as myself has spoken up to quiet you and your antagonistic endeavors.

:|

[jaja1434]

:(
I was hoping for some actually footage. Not that the level design doesn't look nice. I was just hoping for some actually in game walk through.

[LinuxGuru]

Even though this video is old...and there's no English translation...Final Fantasy XIII is set and poised to blow away the world in terms of what's possible in real-time rendering.

I can't wait. Hopefully, FFXIII will be the game that will make me like JRPGs again.

[Twilightx7]

Just so everybody commenting on how awesome this engine looks is properly informed, keep in mind that this footage is taken from an artist working in Maya. It's a modeling and animation program, and what you're seeing is NOT the White Engine, but rather the model that will be exported to the White Engine later, if it IS in fact an in game level. Judging between the camera animation manipulated by this artist, and the recent trailer release, this Maya scene is most likely an in-development CG cut scene.

Also, before any droids shoot me down, I'm just as excited about this game as the next guy. I'd just rather keep my hopes realistic.

[INehalemEXI]

Its new to me looks great too.

[Xemnas]

Lol everyone say it's old but this is the frist time i seen that lolX_X
