I give a big fat MEH to this thread. FFXIII will NOT sell more than FFVII or FFX for that matter, Lightning will be the shitiest main character ever in a FF game, even surpassing the god Vaan.

Get the flying fu*k out of here. Lightning is already 10000000000000000000000000000x better then Vaan. I think it will sell more then FFX at least since its multiplatform.

The idea behind Lightning = Cloud as a sex symbol, greatest character ever! While I never base sales around install base, Ps2 had a much, much bigger one than Ps3 and Xbox 360 combined, I don't see your point.

@CGI: Lightning in the top 5? That would mean she'd have to as well known as Cloud, Sephiroth, Kefka, Moogle and Chocobo, among others. Lightning will be very well known, but you really think so?

wow they failed at that

1. Lightning doesn't look like cloud (thank the heavens she doesn;t)

2. Her back story (frm FF13 Prologue novels published by S-E) is nothing like clouds

stop lying

It's not like you're not lying. "FFXIII WILL sell 10 MILLION+!!!!"

And LOL at you SPOILING the story FOR yourself.

ROFLMAO

If Square-Enix has PUT the prologue stories up there that means they are NOT spoiling the stories for us

no company who makes RPG's is stupid enough to "spoil" the stories for their userbase

& 2. I have PREDICTED it will sell over 10 million

you are saying outright lies

http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/post.php?post=2891603&page=2&postnum=33

You're obviosly laughing at him saying it won't sell 10 million, that's not a prediction.

Reading anything about the story/characters before the game is out, no matter how minor, is spoiling.

FF13 hasn't released

me saying it will sell 10 million HAS to be a prediction

it can't be anything else.....factually it is impossible for it to be anything other than a predictionI have made & I believe

2. No it is not.....it makes me more aware of what happens in the game straight away. The literature in the FF13 Prologue novel won't be in the game in that much depth (I don't think it will be anyway).

If thats how you are, then I suggest you stop watching trailers for any game ever made

@lestatdark

I know....if Final Fantasy has been "lost" for quite some time......I bet SO MANY more franchises would love to be "lost" in this same way

And me saying Lightning looks like Cloud can't be anything other than a prediction. hurr hurr.

2. It's not spoiling to know stuff about the story? What would a spoiler be then? You get to a point where it looks like the game might end and you think to yourself "Nah, it's not gonna end now, I haven't gotten that last character yet", tell me stuff like that isn't spoiling.

And yes, I do for the most part avoid trailers / the best I can (though some people (like you) usually just put them in the thread title), and because of that Assassin's Creed 2 was one of the most pleasant suprises in gaming ever. I know from experience what trailers can do, it really killed KH2 for me, though that was a horrible game anyway.

No it can't as

BOTH characters have been designed & we can see them

FF13 HASN'T released & we can't see its sales

seriously you are grabbing at straws now

______

2. No its not spoiling the story if developers think it appropriate to release that content

@acevil

is that really unreasonable?

barring Pokemon games, FF7, 8, 10 & a few others

NO RPG's have sold more than FF12 out of the MILLION released ever since home consoles were released since the Atari

you will find that figure is quite accurate & than you make it out to be

Kingdom Hearts. Also yes what you said is unreasonable.

Prove it

so far you have done the following:

1. Claimed lightning looked like cloud & hence she will be terrible

2. Claimed Nomura has ruined Final Fantasy

3. Claimed the Final Fantasy series is "lost"

Its crystal clear who is unreasonable here

One final thing, we are on a sales website so PLEASE use the data at hand:

Kingdom Hearts -- 5.50 million

http://www.vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=1129&region=All

Final Fantasy 12 -- 5.68 Million

http://www.vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=765&region=All

Final Mix +.....where Final Fantasy 12 takes into account Zodiac Edition...

Also I never said she will be horrible based on the fact she looks like Cloud.

Final Fantasy has lost its edge, because of the points I outlined, what you call "branching out" I call lost.

Also yes saying Nomaru ruined final fantasy is unreasonable but I can't point the blame on anyone else, since he is the only consistent factor.
