Well Both teams are SHARING a lot of the same developers. The guy behind XIII is the same person who was in charge of 10 and I believe he also took over at last minute for XII.
FFXIII Staff: includes FFX team, FFXII, small portion of FFVII team/which was virtually same as FFVIII team. This is why we see many elements derived from all those games.
FFVII-Lightning looks JUST LIKE CLOUD and that was on purpose.
FFVIII-Gunblade returns as well as color scheme it appears
FFX-Basic visual style of the game derives from here, as well as its leveling system
FFXII-battle system is hybridized with MORE ACTION.
FF Versus XIII's Staff: comprised of KH team, Nomura the lead and had his foot deeply rooted in only the most popular of FF games. Many just think he was character designer, but if you look at the beginning credits in FF he is also acredited for STORY along with Sakaguchi. It was both of their child.Advent Children team, which most worked on original game as well.
Versus's main influences...
FFVII-the darker tone to it all and badassery of character designs return full force
Advent Children-high flying action seen in trailers
KH-as nomura said , battle system will be similar to KH games which have always been top notch.
