QUOTE (NiteFall @ Jan 30 2009, 05:03 PM)  First Final Fantasy XIII trailer. And yes, I know, if you didn't like any of the other ones there will be precisely nothing to make you want this one. And yes, it doesn't make any sense does it? And yes, that battle system does look like a shinier version of the one in Crisis Core doesn't it? And yes, it's going to be horribly linear and restrictive compared to Fallout 3 /Oblivion. Personally though, I think it looks quite promising and very, very pretty. But then again I would say that. I'm currently playing through FF IX again on my PSP after all.  It has an interesting style to it. Just have to see how it plays. When is it actually coming out? |

I don't think the battle system looks much like Crisis Core. It looks like it is back to the good old you on one side them on the other, just with flashier moves to make it looks more fluid.
It looks nice, shame it won't be out till next year. Out soon in Japan, but they are not doing an Xbox version there, us lot with PS3 in the UK need to wait for the 360 port to be reqdy for release before we get it. |

I'm still playing on my trusty PS1!
Those were the days... Not that I remember them. I was 5. |

Everyone knows the SEGA Mega Drive was the pinnacle of video gaming.

New final Fantasy looks like the old turn based ones morethan anything, to me anyway. Looks like some sort of AP bar ala Xenogears as well.

Bought LOST for the 360 the other day and going to play it today.
Got it for £3.75! Zavvi = quite cheap now. |

New Batman: Arjham Asylum trailer: http://kotaku.com/5142470/batman-arkham-as...enshots-trailer
Has some gameplay footage and actually looks pretty damn cool. Also written preview of the first 20 minutesof the game, seems like it could be good:http://kotaku.com/5143358/twenty-minutes-w...n-arkham-asylum |

Been playing Resistance 1 today, it's pretty decent but it does feel a bit like a glorified PS2 game.

I borrowed a PS3 off Sarah's brother this weekend but annoyingly I had to play it in SD. I played some Little Big Planet which was very impressive but not particularly entertaining (Sarah loved it however) and I played a lot of Drakes Fortune which was very good indeed. I'm sure it would look fantastic in HD but was good fun anyway.
However, it did nothing to compell me into buying one for myself so I'll stick with my 360 methinks. |

I keep thinking my PS3 is broke because it's so quiet.

Downloaded World of Goo from the Wii Ware facility, not far into it but it seems to play really well, the presentation and visual style is lovely. It's only the second Wii Ware title I've downloaded with the other being Lost Winds. Lost Winds was really good value in my opinion and I'm very much looking forward to the follow up this year.
