Amazing, I should get more familiar with the series. I have the urge to sell my 360 to buy all of the ds games I want this year, but I can't because of games like these.

You are in a serious pinch then.  Hope you can find a way to figure this out

I was thinking the same thing, maybe some have been more touched up then others.

I realize that first pic has been said to be realtime, but I don't think that it is how it will look during actual gameplay.

Real-time? I would have thought at first for those to be those pre-battle cutscenes
I should aim to play more RPGs, I have only played barely a handful so far...

Thanks for using Star Ocean to fuel an anti-FF war and rile up all the bitter Sony fanboys. *rolls eyes*

These screens aren't new but...don't care. Star Ocean > all.

Man, that first screen....... wow. I'm not into RPGs very much, but that is incredible. The other screens are good, but that first one just took my breath away. Makes me wonder what games will look like by the end of this generation....

Claude - my whole point is the fact that I think that the new crop of RPGs, both W and J are seriously contending for the best JRPG crown.

I just shat bricks! Well this going into my 360!

I wonder how many disc's this game will be on, since BD was 3 and LO was 4. This game also appears to be of a higher quality too. But i can't wait to see what FF13 will look like, since we all know that's where SE puts all the good developers and all the money for graphics.

Really depends on cutscenes. IU will be a good gauge. If they do real-time renders for cutscenes, it should fit on 1 CD.
