Excited about Lightning Returns: FFXIII + More

I don’t know if I am even going to bother playing parts 1 and 2 of the FFXIII series.  But I think I’ll really like this new one coming up.  Why?  Because I only have to worry about controlling one character, Lightning.  I am sort of DONE with Japanese role playing games now.  I like to be able to have my character attack when they want to rather than when it’s their turn.  My patience is gone.  I want to do everything in a day but I can’t.  So something’s gotta give.

I saw the extended trailer for this video game on TheLifestream.net, and then I read up on what it is about in Final FantasyUnion.  I like the ticking-clock type of story (maybe I should go and see the Justin Timberlake movie In Time).  I’ve had dreams where I also had numbered minutes to live and when time ran out, I woke up.  But I’m digressing now.  I’m still waiting for more news on FF Versus XIII.  I know I am going to love the game-play on that one.

Is there ever going to be a Kingdom Hearts 3?  I don’t think there could be any more, to be honest.  If I have to play another KH game, I suppose I can try KH: Birth by Sleep sometime, even though it doesn’t feature my favorite KH character Sora. 

Another thing I am excited about: trying out DmC: Devil May Cry.  I’ve decided that I will rent it and see if it is worth buying.  I haven’t seen any TV ads for it at all.  Maybe they are not shown in the U.S.A.  I’m not done with DMC 4; in fact I think I may need to start the third stage all over again because I am completely stuck on what to do next to make things move on along.

Ehhhh, I have been neglecting this blog for far too long. 

Should I Play Final Fantasy XIII? Also: Versus XIII Game Play

I recently found out from the Final Fantasy Union website that there is going to be a sequel to Final Fantasy XIII, and it’s apparently named for now Final Fantasy XIII-2.

I have a demo of FF XIII that comes with the Blu-Ray for Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete. I’ve never tried the demo yet. But I want to, because I don’t want to at least miss out on that. I haven’t finished FF XII, but it is a very different story so I am not going to worry about that (I should still return to it though. I mean, I bought it, I have to finish it at some point :D ).

Now that I know that there is going to be a sequel to this latest FF, I am curious as to how it turned out in the end that made it seem like it should have a second part.

I also decided to check out another one of my favorite websites, http://www.ff-versusxiii.net/ and I found that there is some new game play footage released. This is the new trailer for Final Fantasy Versus XIII for 2011. To be honest, I am relieved that the subtitles for the dialogue are still in Japanese kanji; I don’t want the dialogue/plot stuff to be revealed right away anyway. I got a big kick out of the game play content that the trailer included. It looks so fun to play—probably because the workings for it are very similar to the game play action from the main Kingdom Hearts titles. There is some real-time stuff that happens during the game-play (like explosions) and Noctis reacts to them simultaneously. So cool!! This video game is THE REASON I wanted to have a Playstation 3.

Here is a direct link to where I found the 2011 trailer for FF Versus XIII:

Final Fantasy Versus XIII crazy at the moment...

     I don't know if I'll ever get a PS3, but it doesn't stop me from wanting to know more about the upcoming games for that console, namely the game Final Fantasy Versus XIII.  I can't help it; I'm fascinated with the main character for FF Versus XIII because the character design is also by Tetsuya Nomura, as he was for Cloud Strife.  Also his hair style reminds me of Cloud too.  Those mopey boys!  Er...men.
     I recently visited FF-VersusXIII.net to find out if this main character has a name yet.  It wasn't revealed for a long time, but I found out there that his name is Noctis.  [Squeals!]  His entire name is in Latin, and when it's something like this I go CRAZY!  These Final Fantasy makers love to come up with odd names for our heroes, huh?  I mean, the main character's name for Final Fantasy XIII is Lightning, which is a code name according to FF XIII.net. 
     What would happen if Cloud and Noctis were in the same story?  Would they be friends?  Tetsuya Nomura has a thing for mopey male characters with black clothes with zippers, doesn't he?  Hm...
     I won't say Noctis' full name here, so if you are curious enough then check it out for yourself.  Then stay and enjoy reading on more information about this game.  I dunno if there will be many more updates, but it's still fun to read.
