I know

when I first saw his name I was like..."o.O? they're pushing this weather-related name thing too far.."

like compared to Cloud...its just..-.-

a little more info on the characters..

Noctis

Nomura had stated before that his personality was unlike any other previous Final Fantasy characters. In the recent trailer, where a conversation between Noctis and Stella is shown, his personality is revealed. He is quite shy and timid when talking to Stella but he tries his hardest to hide it.

Noctis Lucis Caelum is a Latin phrase which means, "Light of the Night Sky."

Stella praying to a Shinigami

Lightning

Lightning is chosen by the Crystals to be the enemy of humanity and bring about the downfall of the world. Lightning wields a gun-sword, which can also manipulate gravity.

Sera or Sarah or Sanon, Lightning

Lightning and unknown soldiers

Lightning, Snow

I'm surprised that not many ppl mentioned Final Fantasy II (beaten it, pretty good game), Final Fantasy III (AWESOME STORYLINE my favorite final fantasy of all time)

for other final fantasy, it's pretty good except for the fact that i didn't like FFIX as much i'd expected. but still good game

[Guest Vidalia]

I really like the names chosen for FF Versus but snow?? please...

[Guest Fuznut88]

they should really go back to the old days of ff where things weren't really star war -esque

[Guest Aireka]

I've played VII, X, & X-2.

I didn't like 8 that much, I've only like it because of Rinoa. xD

X-2 was okay. X was the best because it had great storyline and characters! : D

[Guest diru]

The new shots look amazing.

I thought Agito XIII was being made for mobile phone? It looks like as if it's being made for the PSP or PS2. :S

[Guest jaeka]

New advent children remake?

I can request more infoz on this, pl0x? :X

HAHA.

What page was I on? XD

The page I was on had something about, new advent children remake for march 09?

what's that all about?

Are the FF II and III you are referring to the SNES versions (which is actually IV and VI)? If so, I agree as those being the best FF games out there. The reason why a lot of people don't mention the 2D era FF games is because most them started out with FFVII or some other 3D era FF game.

That Noctis guy looks really bland to me. Just another typical bishounen Nomura design.

[Guest iAD0RKABLESi]

I think Lightning looks like a man with a wig on. o_o

Woah, Stella looks really pretty and Noctis is effing hot. LOL

Is it wrong to say that about game characters? XD

I love the scenery in all 3 games, they look amazing.

zidane's seiyu is adorable. + onion knight ftw.

[XenosbioZ]

My favorite one was IX... I liked how it had the classic FF feel to it...

I played I, II (didn't finish), IV, V (didn't finish), VI, VII, IX, and X (didn't finish)... though I own VIII and XII too I never felt like trying it out ... I really want to play FF VIII tho but I still feel like I have to finish Grandia... and Mana Khemia...

[killjoys]

the only one I've finished is 7 and 10

I've only briefly played 8

and kinda played 10-2

But I love both 7 & 10 the same

I am pretty biased but I played through 10 first.

10 I find has the most tragic story, because of Tidus of course being a dream..

7 has it's tragedies but ends in a good manner..

if 10 did not have 10-2 I think 10 would be my favourite.

I think 7 would be a real treat for most gamers however, due to unlocking Clouds mysteries and the hidden memory of Zack, Cloud is pretty tragic too.. but too emotional sometimes.

edit:

HOLY MOLY

the new screenshots of noctis are hottt.

wait is lightning supposed to a bad guy? ending humanity? =/

or did I read it wrong?

Snow.. I don't mind the name, soundds errr "cute" on a guy anyway xD

It's what I'd name a puppy

[Guest emeth]

played: III/VI, VII, VIII, tactics, IX, X, X-2, XII..

finished: all of the above except X & X-2..not my cup of tea..

fav: III, VII and tactics:)

X, X-2 and XII are just pure disappointment for me.. Everything was fine for me with XII until I reached the final stage of the game..

and I was not wowed AC..FF seems to be losing its 'touch'..or maybe it's just me:sweatingbullets:

[Guest Namine]

^

I don't know,

I think to a point, they got too beautiful/cg-ed for me.

I still love FF don't get me wrong.

Hm, I myself.

Played I/II, VII + Crisis Core, X, X-2, XII

I did not finsh XII, barely even got past the beginning,

just wasn't interested

VII CC gameplay wasnt the best but hey, I play for plotline and if the gameplay is something I gotta get through for my Aerith moments, that's worth it.

Everything I play with my heart was for that girl haha.

I think my heart broke at the letter.

God, I love Aerith.

Anyway. Yea, I'm not even DONE CC yet, I can't bare to finish it yet =/ .. *cries*

Regarding :

7, I really adored the pixels, don't get me wrong they weren't good, but dang, playing them 11 years later, after X and all. IT was just epic.

The fact that I enjoyed the gameplay moreso and the storyline moreso than I did like the future FFs to come.. it's just sometihng to be amazed at.

Yes I really thought it was that great.

I can't believe I cried at some of the things that happened in this story.

Whereas I did not shed a tear in X rofl.

But I did like X's different WAIT gameplay. I'm actually playing through this again right noww. Whoop-dee-doo just got ifrit again.

I hate blitzball, I am SO BAD AT IT.

X-2 is okay, except I didn't like how it had a million hotspots and I felt like I literally needed a walkthrough, whereas for the other two, I could try to run around in circles and get to the right place.. eventually. in X-2, I didn't mind it at all, the dresspheres ETC were very cute to me. XD
