Glad to see vsXIII hasn't been shit-canned. Looked like a true return to form...and I honestly think this will in many was be comparable to Final Fantasy VII, at least in story and aesthetics.

A nice change of pace from the RPG-on-Rails XIII.

Really ?

Versus looks totally like an evolution of Crysis Core but nothing like the good ol' VII.

While the "on rails" XIII was trying to re-emulate X. Unless you are talking generally about production values.

If FFVII was made today with todays production values and technology then I think what we've seen of Versus is probably a good indicator of what it would look like (similar to Crisis Core). It has a darker feel to it that's been absent from FF games for a while now.

As for X & XIII, if you list the differences between the games, I think you can see why Runa was referring to XIII as "on rails".
