She will come as close as they can get, I mean squall, tail boy, tidus & vaan FAILED

lightning can prevail!

lol @ the end part, numonex's post is STILL remembered I see.....thats one for the record books for sure!

Totally agree

FF13 should have these moments

the end of the new trailer is ICONIC....amazing scene, it will have many more

& the villain & hero bit, it reminded me of this famous dialogue:

Joker to BAtman "without you I am incomplete"

something like that.....I loved that bit in batman!

No way.

what do you mean you have "doubts" about uncharted 3

there is no way in hell its getting close to 5 or 6 million on the PS3

GT5 yes.....it will be HUGe, people will love it.....but its a racing game....so it won't have like a "person" who's iconic

FF13's lightning can give them that

psssssst....I sneakily insulted FF9 in my reply to CGI & you didn't notice....muwhahahahaha!!!!!

Why FFXIII won't sell 10 million:

The Japanese gaming industry isn't as strong as it used to be.

Pre-orders are more than FFXII but less than FFX. (I expect it to outsell FFXII at least).

The western market is thriving with shooters and WRPGs now being a lot more popular than JRPGs.

The only system that can sell JRPGs is the DS which it isn't on.

The game but it is clearly not genre-defining. FF hasn't evolved at all.

The graphics aren't very good.

The story is the same old kids saving the world thing that we have seen in JRPGs 1000 times before.

Did you really have to call him Tail Boy, Darth....his name is Zidane, but anyway.

Lightning has a shot, because to me she has way more character than Cloud. Cloud was boring to me. I just hope she has decent character growth throughout story, because from what I understood from the novel chapters so far, she's quick to judge people.

I do have it reserved.  But I probably shouldn't tell anyone my little secret when it comes to Final Fantasy although Outlaw knows and is outraged haha.

1. I agree......but it will be bigger in the west

2. Source for that claim? who said FFX pre-orders > FF13's

3. So? all the more reason for FF13 to be that iconic JRPG that bring the genre back to life...its a good thing JRPG's haven't done much this gen, FF13 can take advantage of that

4. Lost Oddesy sold 800K....which is A LOT for a JRPG

combined Tales Of Vesperia has sold very well in Japan

Whit Knight Chronicles (On PS3) is Level 5's best selling JRPg barring the DQ games & Rogue Galaxy (which it should surpass hopefully)

Also FF13 will once again bring the genre to life

5. FF13 has evolved......you just haven't looked for the right info, they are adding new things into it.

6. In motiont hey are amazing from the trailers we have seen, gaming journalists have praised its graphics too

8. Yes "kids" who are over all 18 except for Hope....nice word there. & saving the world.....oh yeah thats done in 90% of the games out be it JRPG, WRPG, shooter, FPS so on & so forth.

Once again research about its story more, you will find its actually not that cliched.....which I was surprised about. but beware, there are minor spoilers present, if you want the story to really surprise you, pretend I said nothing

Lightning wont be more popular than Cloud...but Noctis has a better chance =)

I second that!
