Oh god, please guys, no more quoting each others entire post, I had to scroll forever to read two posts, haha.
lol! sorry brist, next time he responds (if he does, lol hes probably gonna be like "wtf weirdo!" when he reads it) i'll combo break it to a new post. xD
I know this is very usual in Japan, but everywhere I go they have tens of used FF13 games. Even the smaller shops. And I have been into most the major Bic Cameras, Sofmaps, etc around in Tokyo (Ikebukuro, Akihabara, Shibuya, Shinjuku, etc) for a 30 mins - couple of hours each these past 2 weeks and haven't seen 1 copy of the game been sold. The stock of new FF13 games are also plentyfull ranging from 30+ in each major store I have been to. The game has had amazing sales, but there are A LOT of people returning the game (of course this is fairly normal in Japan) and I rarely see new people pick up a new or used copy of the game. Of course, I don't see all that is happening in Tokyo, but I find it strange that I have yet to see anyone pick up the game from the shelves and buy it.
and also: I know this was off-topic. But I see the WKC vs FF13 discussion flourishing in this thread, so I thought I might add my observations to the discussion.
And ALSO: No Japanese VO in WKC = NO BUY. Same goes for FF13... Lazy devs, know your fanbase (at least my kind of fanbase)..

Couldn't have said it better.
| Seraphic_Sixaxis said: heh... well i thought you would have noticed by now... this gen i tend to fancy the underdog games over the "OMFG UBER POPULAR FRANCHISE FTWLOLROFLMAOBUNNY!" ... For example, my fave game of 2009 by far was Dynasty Warriors 6: Empires, Yet Uncharted 2 was out, so was Halo ODST, L4D2, KZ2, Re-release of LBP with more content, SW: USE, Flower, Shatter, ACII, Etc... And when i first got my PS3 my fave game was Folklore, which i proudly chose over Uncharted 1, RFoM among many other exclusives like MotorStorm which was HUGELY popular at the time since it was bundled like crazy at the time and still disliked it, then there was the infamous LBP war i had with makingmusic... needless to say i was right about that to, without anyone to play with online LBP is quite frankly crap. Same can be said with my 360, when i first got it all my 360 bud's were all like "OH-MY-GAWD" "GET HALO 3 and GEARZZZZZ NAOOO! or your a NUB!" i rented them both, hated them both, and got games like Project Slypheed and Infinite Undsicover, aswell as Star Ocean: The Last Hope (when it WAS exclusive) and enjoyed them all much more then all the Popular games on 360. In the end, since this gen is Weird in general, im sure its easy for you to understand that there are some gamers who simply DONT go with the flow and like to start flows instead of following them, so just like Folklore > Uncharted, LBP, MotorStorm, RFoM and IU/PS/SO4 > Halo 3, Gears of war1/2, L4D1/2, i stand by my personal taste of WKC > FFXIII for 2010. You may find my reasons stupid since, yes they ARE universelly praised for it, but thats the very thing of why those are my reasons for disliking the game, as far as i see it, FFXIII = FFX with a graphical updates and a tweaked story, yes that sounds good since X was Amazing, however with other Exclusive games for PS3 on offer like WKC that actually HAS online and a robust Character Creation, i choose the alternative this time round' rather then the FF series. In conclusion... i wouldn't call this "Hate" against XIII, its more like i hate the fact that the game itself is OVER-POPULAR, like how GTAIV is, and how Halo 3 is and how Uncharted 2 is, i seem to dislike Popular games pretty much alot of the time, if it wasn't for the fact demons souls has ... ya know... demons in it, i'd like that game to even if it is a cult-popular hit, but still... To be honest, i think the ONLY popular games i like this gen are Flower, WipeOut HD, and Valkyria Chronicles... other then those everyone calls my taste in gaming weird... i would say WKC too, but it seems its being overshadowed by FFXIII, thus pissing me off creating iffyness against FFXIII's very existence. At anyrate... yeah... i tip my hat to you for kindly understanding now... hopfully. good day to you sir! |
You don't like games because they are over-popular? That is the dumbest reason i've ever seen in my life for not liking a game. I can understand if you say the games are over-rated, but most of those games brought innovation and improvements to their respected genres. Games like Final Fantasy paved way for "underdogs" like White Knight Chronicles. I can also understand why you would like Folklore over Uncharted 1, because of personal taste, but it still gives you no right to bash any of this games, just because you do not like them. When a games popular, it usually means its a really good game, you shouldn't not play or not like a game so you can "start your own flow". This website is ridiculous sometimes.
Odd. Future. Wolf. Gang. Kill. Em. All. OFWGKTA Don't give a fuck!
Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!
Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!
I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix!

About the battle system, i dont give a shit.
