    Tell me I'm not the only one who thinks Snow sounded a little like Axel >.>

    Snow's voice is deeper and manlier.

    I'm going to be blunt: I don't like it. The atmosphere feels exactly like FFX, which in turn felt like FFVIII, which felt like FFVII. While I do like the themes of persecution portrayed by the trailer, the parts not pertaining to said theme feel like standard, boring romantic drama. And the theme song. Dear god the theme song. Gone is the epic orchestral score that would, you know, FIT in favor of pop. Really boring generic pop. It kills the mood completely and feels exactly the opposite of the feel that they were trying to convey with the scenes they showed.

    That music really wasn't bad compared to The first KH theme song.

    I don't have as much of an issue with the song as much as I do the use of it. The theme for the first Kingdom Hearts was a high energy song that fit the scene it was put to. The song used for the FFXIII trailer doesn't fit the mood. The fact that I don't like the song is just something on the side.

    Hey, thanks for the update.

    Wow, that game is looking more prettier every time a new screenshot is released. Fang seems like a cool lady character as well (her name sounds a bit too masculine though but w.e.).

    So, it's coming to America in Spring 2010? That's the impression I'm getting. Or is that the Japan release date? Either way, it's looking spectacular. I can't wait to get this.

    Japan's release date is December 17 of this year. America and Europe will be getting it around Spring of 2010, along with the first release of the game on the X-Box 360 platform.

    (Little off topic but isn't it sort of strange that the Japanese releases for big name S-E games are now almost always around December? I know that English releases follow about 4-6 months afterward but kinda something weird I noticed...)

    The video is in that link. It's more of a cool interview with spectacular clips.



    Between this, Gran Turismo 5 and God of War III, all in March, I can forget about being able to pay my rent.

    With all these nice and shiny games coming out I'll never be able to buy a car. But I look forward to this new battle system, I just love what we've seen of it so far and I- hold up, Leona Lewis? Seriously? DAMN YOU X-FACTOR.

    Hah. xD

    I'm not too annoyed by the Leona Lewis thing, as long as they choose a fitting moment to play the song.

    >_>
    Like the credits.

    It said opening theme. xD And it is a strange choice but i think Leona Lewis has a fantastic voice. SE will give her a good song...thus promting her fans to buy the game. xD

    The fact that they chose Leona Lewis for this....

    *visions of Cloud singing "Bleeding Love"*

    Game looks to be awesome, but I don't like how they had to keep a senstive male character, named Hope. Too much cheese in one person.
