I'll skip school, I'll get my arse over to my brothers place, I'll play the game with him on his l33t tv, I wont eat anything that takes more then 5mins to make or order. We have set 96 hrs for it with 20 hrs of sleep. We hope this will be plenty of time to finish the game without rushing it as we know square doesnt make any bad Final Fantasy games.
Btw. Is anyone else a FF fanatic? I have done everything that is possible to do in every FF exept killing omega in ff5 and im sad to say that FFcc and FF11-12 i have never finished (FF11 is kinda hard to finish).

I love Final Fantasy, I'm still having fun replaying FF8, as it came out on PSN a fair while ago. Completed FF7 within days of it coming out.
I've got good expectations for FF13, even if Squeenix have ballsed up nearly every game they've made so far. I much preferred it when it was just Squaresoft. But this one so far looks quite good.
Crisis Core was quite good I suppose. If you want to borrow mine Larul, I don't mind digging it up so you can complete it.
As for release day? I'm locking myself in a room, for at least 24 hours, with an ample supply of caffeine, and snacks. Anyone who wishes to join me must be Dr Drae certified.

Fuck Larul i think you win on loving the series more than me, iv played through 8, 9 and 10 about 3 times each and as CotD just said FF8 has just been released on PSN and yes i bought it straight away aswell lol and you are also right about Square Enix fucking shit up (apart from Crisis Core which is the PSP one right in which case tha was pretty sick)
But this FF13 does look very promising and i love that they have went back to the Turn based stratafy rather than that stupid line thing in 12 lol ...
But hey less than a week now b4 i become a recluse and spend a whole week in my bedroom completing it over and over and over and becoming addicted to redbull

FF1(Jap) and FF2(Jap) NES - Glanced over on emulation - way too dated for me to get into. Will play if they re-make them.
FF2 (JapIV) SNES - Completed 8 times
FF3 (JapVI) SNES - Completed once, played near end another 3
FFV SNES Emulation - Played near end but it crashed maybe due to hacked uK translation (I have a legit one that came out later but cba starting again)
FFVII PSX - Completed twice. Pretty, but story a bit confusing imho. Overhyped and definitely not the best in the series. Also. Square hands.
FFVIII PSX - Awful westernised theme. Got to last bit but for some reason lost interest. Didn't like main character and female main cahracter seemed a wuss.
FFIX PSX - Back to the jap fantasy theme thankfully. Yay for the random monkey tail! Best CGI in PSX series by a mile. best story. Best gameplay. Ironically least well known in the series.. shame. Completed twice.
FFX PS2 - Tidus contends for worse main character ever. Ruined my immersion in the game, hated him so much. Couldn't bring myself to complete it but got pretty far. I mean come on.. an american teen twit isn't going to keep me interested in the story. Other characters were great though. Shame.
FFXI PC - An MMORPG. Tried it, seems decent enough but really needs a group to get the most out of. May re-visit one day since you can get it + expansions cheap. Also I remember some faffing to use PC controls, ended up using a ps2 joypad which worked better. I assume all that's sorted now though.
FFXII PS2 - OMG LETS MAKE OUR GAME LIKE THE BORING FREE ROAMING PC RPGs AND COMPLETELY THROW AWAY EVERYTHING THAT MAKES FF GREAT. Making a game too open-ended rather than story-driven is a complete insult to the FF series, and the FF fans. Nuff said. Also, combat was sh1t.
FFXIII PS3 - Heard a lot of weird things they've changed but will give benefit of doubt. Have CE preordered. Female lead is great news though, about time. And she's hot.

That was very indepth niice work lol ...
I gotta aggre with what you said about 7 very overhyped and even though it still is a great game i wouldnt say its the best in the series.
However FF8 i absolutely love, even though you have to draw your magic i can live past that... The gunblade is actually a fantastic idea would love to see that again.
FF9 again fantastic story and love Vivi lol ... This game is deffinetly one of the best i will have to go back and play it again.
10 in my opinion was epic, love the sphere grid thought that was a good feature and blitzball was a fun lil mini game although got easy once you got good.
I belive you missed 10-2 which in all fairness was whickady whickady whack. My least favoruite out of all FF's
11 i never played as i left it to long and i didnt wanna join into a game which was coming to an end
12 youv got spot on
13 ive heard theres this auto feature which you can select and it fights your battle for you and you cant lose or something ... I certinly wont be checking that if this is true.
and like ive said b4 i havent played any pre 7 so cant comment on them

The best game of all FF is imo FFVII and i guess thats because it was my first realy good rpg and thus i spent alot of time with it. It is true that the story in VII have a few gaps in it but if you do Everything and read all text in the game it makes perfect sense and it is truly epic. My best friend even collored his hair yellow and used alot of styling gel for a few months
Back to FFXIII. I know very litle about it cos WoW has taken all of my gaming time and i hope ill get a nice surprise

I had FF12 on my PS2, played it, got stuck about 4 hours in, started again, got stuck at the same point, maybe I was missing something obvious in the combat stuff but 12 really didn't do much for me.
I don't have a console atm (sold my 360) but would certainly be purchasing FF13 were I to own one

Eurogamer have a review up, now. I haven't read it, though, since reviews always spoil the surprise for me. Also, whilst I'm at it:

Little bump here...
Just wondering how anyone who bought FFXIII is getting on. I havent played FF since X(ten) but I thought I would give XIII a shot.
Thoughts so far?

I've heard its "Pure awsome topped with sauce of win." but 'course, thats from a Final Fantasy Fanboy.

Hey Skcorn, I'm just about to start playing XIII (on the trey) so I'll give you a rundown after I've spent some time on it. I haven't really read any previews or watched any trailers of this game, so I'm not really sure what to expect from it. Hopefully I'm in for a pleasant surprise ...

I wouldnt mind an honest view from a non FF fanboy meself, pl0z. :3
I'll do a review from the perspective of someone who has only played tiny bits of FFX and FFXII. But not for a few weeks, most likely.
