could the black dude in 13 be anymore stereotypical? I mean, look at the hair!!

 

Uhm, you do know black people, though not a lot, have afros right?  A matter of fact, spanish people wear afros nowadays way more than black people do.  So having Sazh don the afro makes him unique (almost rare) in a way and definitely different when compared to Barret from FF7.  Barret was a loudmouth stereotypical black person, but Sazh is a caring, father-like, upstanding citizen type of person.

Seeing as I am one and trying to grow my hair...yeah ;). Barret was also a stereotype but of a different kind.

Seeing as I don't speak Japanese I could only go by what I saw from videos and to me he looked like a comic relief.

just to clearify the stereotype comment wasn't being 100% serious.

They could always add another DVD to the 360 version for a Japanese track. This joke pic seems like less of a joke all the time, LOL.

Ok...will this effect the graphics, story, or gameplay any?

This'll affect the story and gameplay.

Oh, then I'm getting the PS3 version. At first I was gonna get the 360 version because more discs make me feel like its more value, but not if the lack of Jap Audio on the disc is gonna mess up the game. I want the REAL game, not some lame port.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Good for PS3 owners that like subs.

This would matter, but the English voice acting in main Final Fantasy titles is always top notch.

How many have voice acting?  Two? FFXII and FFX?


And sorry FFX voice acting was not that great.

It was great in 2001 when it released. No game at the time had as much VA as that one. Plus, Crisis Core also had some amazing VA.

And I still think Final Fantasy XII has the best VA for any JRPG with Lost Odyssey coming close but failing because of Cooke and Mack.

I believe it would have to be the 360 version of the game on 12 discs.
